You will need to set up your own Sunday River account in order to do this. Tickets do not need to be purchased until just before you go on the trip as they are non-refundable.
Your Lift Tickets must be purchased directly from Sunday River. This is a Sunday River requirement.  However, we will be happy to assist you in any way we can through the lift ticket purchase process.

No group discounts are given for lift tickets for folks 
80+ as the ticket price is extremely discounted.

2 Day - $6
3 Day - $7
4 Day - $8
5 Day - $9

Lift tickets for 80+ folks must be purchased online from Sunday River's website. Do not use the group ticket link. We can help you to do this if needed.


Sunday River has 7 separate peaks, 884 skiable acres, 139 trails and glades with the longest vertical of 2340 feet (top of Jordan back to White Cap). 

We will be staying at the Grand Summit which is on the east side of the resort with the "White Heat" double black diamond trail being nearly at our doorstep.  If double blacks are not your thing, Sunday River has 7 peaks of trails and glades which will provide you with terrain as easy or challenging as you desire.  

The Grand Summit also has a restaurant "Camp", which is open for Breakfast, Lunch and dinner if you choose.

Winter of 23/24 brings the Barker 6, a brand new 6 seater heated chair with a bubble which will bring you speedily to the top of Barker Mountain, which is in the center of the resort.  Last season, Sunday River installed a similar 8 seater at Jordan which is on the very west side of the resort.
