Lift Tickets

Q: What if I lose my SugarXpress Card?

There will be a $5 charge to replace a lost SugarXpress Card. Cards can be replaced at either Season Pass Office at Lincoln Peak or Mt. Ellen. Unlike our past passes the RFID chip technology is built into each card and is more costly to replace. Please hold on to your card and re-use it from year to year.

Lock in the lowest price on Sugarbush lift tickets by buying online in advance. Prices climb as your ski day gets closer, so waiting is basically paying extra for the same turns. Grab your ticket early, skip the window, and head straight to the lifts with your deal already dialed in.

Already got your ticket? Nice, you're halfway to the mountain.

Mt. Ellen Lift Ticket
Vermont’s best-kept weekday secret (well… not that secret anymore).
Mt. Ellen-only tickets give you access to 39 trails, 11 wooded areas, and 7 lifts, basically everything you need for a full day that feels local in the best way. It’s where the pace is a little easier, the turns are a little longer, and the crowds are noticeably less interested in being where you are.

SugarXpress Card FAQ

What is the SugarXpress Card?
The SugarXpress Card is the new piece of media you’ll carry around with you that has your pass product loaded onto it. Think of it as your pass or ticket,though you can also add resort charge, scan into the Sugarbush Health and Recreation Center, and more.

How do I reload additional days onto my SugarXpress Card?
Loading additional days is simple. Just visit our Online Store, login to the account associated with your SugarXpress Card (or create a new account), and purchase. The new tickets will automatically be uploaded to your card and you may proceed directly to the lift.

You took my photo, but it doesn’t appear on my SugarXpress Card.
While we require a photo on file for all season pass purchasers, you won’t see your photo on your SugarXpress Card as you would have for past season passes. Instead, we use your photo at our RFID gates located at our base area lifts, to validate that you’re using your actual pass.

Where do I put my SugarXpress Card?
Your card should be kept in a jacket or pants pocket on the left side of your body, between knee and shoulder height. This will help the gates’ antenna pick up your signal clearly and allow for a smooth loading process. For best results, place in a pocket away from your cell phone, credit cards or other devices. It is important not to have more than one SugarXpress card onyou asthey will all be scanned when you go through the gate and validated for that day.

What if I lose my SugarXpress Card?
There will be a $6 charge to replace a lost SugarXpress Card. Cards can be replaced at either Season Pass Office at Lincoln Peak or Mt. Ellen. Unlike our past passes the RFID chip technology is built into each card and is more costly to replace. Please hold on to your card and re-use it from year to year.

Is my SugarXpress Card transferable?
No. SugarXpress Cards are linked to individual customers. Vermont has a theft of service law for the fraudulent use of tickets and passes and that will be enforced. The misuse of a ticket or pass could result in the loss of the pass and a fine.

Can I punch a hole in it?
The card has an antenna embedded that surrounds the RFID chip. Any damage to the antenna will render the card inactive, so we recommend never punching a hole in the card.
