Do you need a reservation on your day?
On peak days you can book a paid reservation for $20 plus taxes and fees, a free carpool reservation, or one of the free general reservations released each week. Every reservation needs a credit card, and a no-show can cost you $50. On non-peak days parking is free and first come, with no reservation.
Nov 27, 2026 to Mar 21, 2027 (listed weekends and holidays only)
Paid and carpool reservations went on sale Nov 1 at noon, and more carpool spots are added weekly. Free reservations for the coming weekend or holiday period open every Tuesday at noon and again at 7pm Pacific, with the same number released at each time.
- Bring 4 or more people, or one adult with at least two kids 12 or younger, and the carpool reservation is free.
- Grab a free general reservation when they open on Tuesdays at noon and 7pm for the coming weekend.
- Non-peak weekdays are free and first come, with no reservation, even on powder days.
If you can’t get a reservation, check back for cancellations up to 7am on the day, ride with someone who has one, or come after 2pm for night skiing. On some sold-out days the resort opens the Yodelin satellite lot with a shuttle, which also needs a free reservation before 10am.
- Peak days for 2026–27 are Nov 27–29 (if the resort is open), Dec 5–6, 12–13, 19–20 and 26–31, Jan 1–3, 9–10, 16–18, 23–24 and 30–31, Feb 6–7, 13–15, 20–21 and 27–28, and Mar 6–7, 13–14 and 20–21.
- Each account can hold up to 5 reservations at once, and you can change or cancel until 7am on the day.
- Everyone needs a new account on parkstevenspass.com this season because old accounts didn’t carry over. If your carpool arrives with fewer than 4 people, you’ll pay the $20 rate.
