Planning a trip to Jackson Hole Mountain Resort? Lift tickets can eat up your budget, with adult full-day rates around $200 to $220 at peak. But smart choices like the Ikon Pass slash that cost. I’ve skied Jackson Hole Mountain Resort for years, and Ikon has saved me tons. This guide breaks down 2025 prices, discounts, and tips—plus ways to pair it with Grand Teton National Park without breaking the bank.
Current Lift Ticket Pricing
Jackson Hole Mountain Resort window rates peak high in busy seasons. Adult full-day tickets run $215 to $225 at window. Half-day starts around $170. Kids 5-12 pay $120 full-day; under 5 ski free with a parent.
Buy online early to save 10-20%. Weekdays are $20-30 cheaper than weekends. Shoulder seasons like early December or late March drop prices another $50 or so.

Pass Options Including Ikon
Skip single tickets—they’re poor value. Jackson Hole Mountain Resort is on the Ikon Pass. Base Ikon (7 days) is $1,299 per pass site; Unlimited $1,699. That’s like $185/day vs. $200+ singles.
Ikon Base has no blackouts at Jackson Hole. Snow King nearby is Epic Pass; Grand Targhee (45 miles) also Ikon-eligible for multi-resort hops.
Pro tip: Buy Ikon in early September—prices jump $100 by December.
Resort multi-day: 3-day adult around $550, beating three singles at $600+.
Total Trip Cost Estimator
Lift tickets are just the start. For two adults, four days: $800 lifts (multi-day), $1,200 Teton Village condo ($300/night), $400 meals/gas. Total $2,400 or $300/person/day.
Jackson Hole Airport (JAC) is 20 minutes away; shuttles ~$30 round-trip.
Budget hack: Stay in Jackson town, 12 miles from base. Motels ~$150/night, bus $10/day to slopes.
Lodging Add-Ons Near Slopes
Teton Village slope-side: Hotel Terra $400+ peak; VRBO Four Seasons condos ~$250 split.
Jackson: Cowboy Village cabins $180/night—walk to Snow King, shuttle to Jackson Hole.
Experience note: I bunked in Jackson once, saved $500 on lodging. Coffee runs in the morning, but Grand Teton views made it worth it.
