2023-2024 Nordic Season Passes
A BCRD day pass or season pass is required for skiing or snowshoeing on BCRD trails, with the exception of the Wood River Trail.
Adult and youth season and day passes include access to the Galena winter trails, the Harriman Trail, North Valley Trails, and Quigley Nordic. The BCRD/Sun Valley combo pass also includes access to the Nordic and snowshoe trails at Sun Valley Resort. A dog pass is good for one dog accompanying a pass-holding Nordic skier or snowshoer on designated BCRD trails where dogs are allowed. Dogs are free on snowshoe trails.
The 32-kilometer multi-use Wood River Trail (WRT) is a community-supported trail and no pass is required. The WRT is usually groomed every other day and is open to skiers, walkers, dogs, and fat-bikes. A Nordic day pass or season pass is required for the Durance fat-bike trail at the SNRA and trails open to fat-bikes at Quigley Trails Park.
Trail pass revenue and fundraising dollars allow BCRD to groom more than 160 kilometers of Nordic trails and 36 kilometers of snowshoe trails, offering one of the largest and most diverse Nordic ski and snowshoe destinations in the United States.
