They’ve come here for generations. The adventurous, the seekers, and those who just need a place to get away from the cares of a busy world. Here in Sun Valley we’re as steeped in history as we are in ski runs. And if that history has taught us anything, it’s that people need a place to indulge their adventurous side as well as their more restful side. Which is why we created our Lift Ticket Exchange Program. Spend a few days letting it all out on the mountain, then redeem a day’s lift pass for one of the many other reasons people return to Sun Valley year after year: Try cross-country skiing or snowshoeing, take your group ice-skating, indulge in a massage, or even a gourmet meal. The choice is yours, and your historic vacation awaits.
