Steamboat Lift Tickets
Lift tickets at Steamboat Ski Resort are among the most expensive in the country. Vail and Steamboat are in stiff competition for the most expensive tickets each year, with daily lift ticket prices now above $300 on peak days. However, you don’t have to pay the max price if you are able to buy your tickets in advance. If you are skiing for several days, you will be able to buy a ticket that has a discounted rate built into it.
