Season-pass holders at Whitefish Mountain Resort will have the option to personalize their passes this winter at one of the resort’s new “selfie stations” set up around the valley.
Pass holders can snap a pass photo at a station and get a perk from that business during the ski season. The stations will be set up at Sportsman Ski Haus in Whitefish and Kalispell, Craggy Range, Great Northern Bar, Stumptown Snowboards, Wild Coffee, Sweet Peaks in Whitefish, Montana Coffee Traders, Great Northern Cycle and Ski and The Wave.
Passes are available at early season rates through Sept. 30. An adult pass is priced at $689 for the upcoming winter, a $14 increase over the last two seasons.
Season pass perks include 50% off three midweek tickets at Schweitzer in Sandpoint, Idaho and Sugar Bowl in California, five free lift tickets at Red Lodge Mountain, and three free tickets to Loveland Ski Area in Colorado, Mt. Hood Meadows in Oregon and Great Divide Ski Area in Helena.
Pass holders also get discounts on merchandise, dining, rentals and lodging, as well as discounted lift tickets.
Opening day is set for Dec. 7.
