The crisp mountain air is calling, and you're probably wondering, 'When does June Mountain open for the 25/26 season?' It's a question many eager skiers and snowboarders have as the leaves change and the temperatures drop. While an exact date can be a bit fluid, depending on Mother Nature's generosity with snow, the general timeframe is usually around mid-December.
This is when you can typically expect the lifts to start spinning, offering access to the slopes for those who've snagged their 25/26 June Mountain Season Passes or their Ikon Passes. It's always a good idea to keep an eye on their official channels for the most up-to-date announcements as the season approaches.
Speaking of passes, if you're planning on hitting the slopes at June Mountain, understanding your pass benefits is key. Whether you've got the dedicated June Mountain Season Pass or an Ikon Pass, there are some fantastic perks. For instance, June Mountain Season Pass holders get unlimited access to the mountain, plus five Friends & Family tickets and discounts on Mammoth lodging. And for the little ones, kids 12 and under ski and ride for free – pretty neat, right?
For those with an Ikon Pass, you're also set for June Mountain, along with over 60 other destinations. While sales for the 25/26 Ikon Pass have wrapped up, if you're already a holder, you're good to go. Remember, Ikon Base Pass holders do have some blackout dates to be aware of, specifically December 27–31, 2025; January 17–18, 2026; and February 14–15, 2026.
Beyond just access, your pass can unlock some sweet deals. You can save 25% on 1-day lift tickets for friends and family, which is a great way to share the mountain joy. Ikon Pass holders can also snag up to 15% off group lessons, and both June Mountain and Ikon Pass holders get 10% off demo rentals and repairs. Plus, there are discounts on lodging at Mammoth and savings on dining and retail on the mountain – up to 15% off for Ikon Pass holders and 10% for June Mountain Pass holders.
