2025/2026 Season Punch Pass

You can purchase a Punch Pass using the order form on our website. In our mobile app, tap the button in the top navigation and then tap "Buy Now."

Punch passes can not be purchased over the phone, through individual resort websites, or in person.

We use PayPal for secure payment processing. However, you do not need to have a PayPal account to complete your purchase. Select the "Pay with Debit or Credit Card" option instead of signing into a PayPal account.

Once you've completed your punch pass purchase, an activation code will be sent to the email address you entered at the time of purchase. If you do not have this email within 3 hours, check your spam folder. If you're still unable to locate the email, please contact us for assistance.

You will need to have our mobile app installed on your phone. If not already installed, please download it from Google Play or the Apple App Store.

The steps for activating your Punch Pass are shown in the video below or outlined in the steps that follow.

Tap the link in the app’s main navigation and select "Activate" or "Sign In & Activate," depending on if you are signed in to an app account.

If not already signed into an app account, you will be prompted to do so now.

Enter your activation code and tap "Activate Pass" to activate your season punch pass:

Please note that your activation code is unique and can only be used once. If you're having trouble activating your pass with your activation code, please contact us for assistance.

We have switched to a fully digital punch pass system. Physical punch passes are no longer available. You must have the CCCSA mobile app on your phone to activate and redeem your punch pass.

Using your punch pass is easier than ever with our mobile app. Here's how to do it:

1. Open your punch pass by tapping the link in the app's main navigation.
   
2. Hand your phone to the resort staff.
3. The resort staff will tap one of the unused punches on your pass and confirm you’re ready to redeem it.
   
4. Your pass will update to show the punch has been redeemed, along with the date it was used.
   
5. You're all set — enjoy your day on the snow!

The Punch Pass is valid for two trail passes during the specified season at each participating resort:

• Breckenridge Nordic
• Crested Butte Nordic
• Frisco Nordic
• Gold Run Nordic
• Keystone Nordic
• Snow Mountain Ranch
• Tennessee Pass Nordic
• Vail Nordic Center

Plus, you always ski free on the Aspen Snowmass Nordic Trail System.

The Punch Pass also includes deals from several Nordic resorts and service providers:

• Aspen Snowmass
• Beaver Creek Nordic Sports Center
• Latigo Ranch
• Red Elephant Racing
• Tennessee Pass Nordic Center
• Vail Backcountry Tours
• Vista Verde Ranch

These offers will only be visible in the Offers tab once you have activated your punch pass.

Each Punch Pass is valid for one season — October through May. Any unused punches or discounts are not valid the following season.

Each "punch" on your pass is redeemable for a trail pass at the specified resort. Nordic skiing is available at all participating locations. Additional activities are specific to each resort — e.g. snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, or fat biking. Please review the resort's listing on our website/app, or contact the resort for clarification on the activities allowed on their trail systems. Trail passes do not include rental gear or lift access.

Yes. Your Punch Pass is valid for two trail passes at each of the participating resorts. You may choose to share your two trail passes.

No. We are not able to offer refunds for punch pass purchases or unused punches. We understand that injury, illness, or other unforeseen circumstances can change your ski season plans, but we’re unable to make exceptions to our refund policy. The Punch Pass is offered at a discounted rate, and punches can be shared with the understanding that some flexibility is built into its use.

An activation code will be emailed to you after purchase. Anyone can use this code, but it cannot be transferred to another account once used. However, you can use your 2 punches for anyone you would like, so we encourage you to bring a friend and share a punch. If you get a new phone, just download the app and login under your existing account to access your pass.

No, you can only have one active Punch Pass per account, and only one account per device. If you have an additional Punch Pass activation code, such as one for your spouse or child, it must be activated using a different account on a separate device.
