Yes, the Pass Holder must also be present and display an active pass in order to either pick up a physical Buddy or Ski With A Friend Ticket or activate their friend’s Mobile Buddy or Ski With A Friend Ticket.
Starting in the 2024/2025 season, Buddy and Ski With A Friend Tickets will be compatible with mobile access on the My Epic app, so you can head straight to the lift together. At the lift, please ensure you (the Pass Holder) scan first, activating the Mobile Buddy or Ski With A Friend Ticket, then have your friend scan second and you'll be off to enjoy your day.
