      Option 2, Buy tickets online directly from Schweitzer tickets: Online tickets are discounted if purchased at least three days in advance. 


      Ticket Special! Schweitzer is currently offering a three pack ticket sale. Buy three tickets for $249, that's just $83 per day, use anytime outside black out dates.  You may have received an email from SkiHawks listing the lift ticket prices as $67 per day....well that deal is gone but $83 is still a heck of a deal.  Act quickly, these deals disappear as fast as a snow cone on a hot summer day!

       

      Addendum to Option 2: Last year, tickets could be purchased online for as little as $105 per adult and $95 per senior (65+). It might be worth waiting to see what Schweitzer's online advance purchase lift tickets will be before committing to buying lift tickets through our trip vendor. I will keep an eye out for the online lift ticket pricing and let those registered with the group know what happens. 



      Schweitzer does accept IKON Pass (unlimited) & Ikon Base (5 days):


      MN SkiHawks Special Offer

      Discount IKON Pass & IKON Base Pass

       May be purchased through Sports America

      at a discounted price. Use code word: snow

      Click to access the IKON PASS discount program.
