Lone Peak Tram

NEW THIS SEASON - LONE PEAK TRAM ACCESS FOR LIFT TICKETS

Starting winter 2024-25 all lift tickets include unlimited access to the Lone Peak Tram on the day of your ticket. Don’t miss the incredible experience that Lone Peak has to offer, whether you’re skiing or taking a scenic ride.

Load your reusable Sky Card

All lift tickets must be loaded onto a reusable RFID Sky Card. If you already have a Sky Card, load your lift ticket onto the card at checkout. You can head straight to the lifts without visiting the ticket window.

If you don't have your Sky Card yet, you will be able to purchase one during the lift ticket checkout process. Pick up your tickets at our Sky Card Express Boxes on-resort. Scan the QR code in your confirmation email and it will print out your Sky Card loaded with your lift tickets. You can also pick up Sky Cards at Basecamp, Mountain Services, or the Madison Base ticket office.
