If purchased today, Mountain Collective holders are guaranteed the lowest price of $359 for adults, and a miniscule $99 for kids.

Whistler Blackcomb was the top overall resort in Freeskier’s 2014 Resort Guide. Whistler took home the top spot thanks in large part to its 8,171 acres of skiable terrain, 462 inches of average annual snowfall, 5,280 feet of vert (Blackcomb), 200+ marked trails, 16 bowls, endless backcountry and incredibly long season. Whistler Blackcomb also came in with the number six terrain park in North America, our number two aprés spot and the number one resort in North America for nightlife.

Aspen/Snowmass came in as the number two overall resort in North America in our 2014 Resort Guide. Aspen/Snowmass is comprised of four separate mountains, Buttermilk, Ajax, Highlands and Snowmass, that each has a different flavor. In addition, Aspen’s aprés scene was the third ranked in all of North America, and the nightlife isn’t too shabby either, ranking in at number two overall.

Jackson Hole, the powder king of the Northern Rockies, was the number three overall resort in our 2014 Resort Guide. Its 4,139 feet of vert, endless steep terrain, deep blower powder and infinite backcountry access are just a few of the reasons Jackson ended up in the top three. Throw in a number one ranking in the steeps category, and Jackson Hole should be on any expert skier’s bucket list.

Neighboring resorts Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows offer some of the best terrain in all of the Lake Tahoe region. Squaw/Alpine ranked in as the number four overall resort in our 2014 Resort Guide, thanks to the 43 lifts, 6000+ acres of skiable terrain and 450 inches of average annual snowfall between them.

AltaSnowbird, located in Utah’s Little Cottonwood Canyon, ranked in as our number five overall resort this year, but the duo of Wasatch resorts came in as the number one resort for powder. AltaSnowbird is graced with over 500 inches of average annual snowfall, which blankets some of the steepest terrain in all of Utah.

Mammoth Mountain, located in the Eastern Sierra Nevada, was our seventh overall resort in this year’s Resort Guide. Vast terrain options combined with one of the country’s longest ski seasons and a number five overall ranking in the terrain park department make Mammoth one of North America’s premier ski resorts.

This year, the Mountain Collective has added two days of skiing at Australia’s Thredbo Alpine Village and Chile’s Valle Nevado. Thredbo and Valle Nevado are two of the Southern Hemisphere’s premier resort destinations, and offer Mountain Collective holders a chance to ski year-round.

New for this year, if you buy the Mountain Collective this spring, you’ll get a third day of skiing at any of the Mountain Collective resorts. If two days of awesome shredding at any of the participating resorts just isn’t enough, you now have the option for a third day.
