Beating the crowds
- Tuesday to Thursday is quietest almost everywhere, and often cheaper.
- Weekdays run 9am to 6:30pm, while Saturday and Sunday close at 4pm, so weekend days have a shorter window for the same crowd. Weekday mornings are the quieter option.
- Buy day tickets online at least 7 days ahead. Advance rates are lower than window prices, which are highest on peak dates.
- Plan afternoon runs around the Sunnyside lift, which closed early in 2025-26 (4pm weekdays, 3pm weekends). Check the 2026-27 hours before you go.
- Avoid the Dec 19 to Jan 10 and Feb 13 to Feb 21 stretches, the resort's own pass blackout periods, when peak-day crowds are most likely.
