Ski Rentals at Great Divide
Great Divide Ski resort is known as one of the first resorts to open in Montana for skiing year round. The Great Divide is also locally owned and family friendly and offers 5 different terrain parks. Skiing with an entire family can be pricey, but it doesn’t have to be. Booking early is best, especially with their super affordable ski gear options. Here are a few ways to really pinch your pennies.
Pre-Season Deals
Getting Pre-season deals online early can really save a lot. When you book online you can save 50%! Adult tickets cost only $20.00 in advance and child ticket prices are just $10.00. You can also purchase lesson deals that retail for $99.00 at $49.50. Huge savings just by planning ahead. If you forget to book ahead, don’t worry there are several more ways to save at Great Divide Ski Resort!
Another fantastic way to save is by buying a season pass instead of paying the daily rate of $40.00 for one adult and $20.00 for a child. Normal daily rate rentals for children are $15.00 and $25.00 for an adult for all day use. When you do the math for your entire family, buying a season pass at the $349.00 for adults, $149.00 for children and $25.00 for preschool age children, it just makes more sense, especially if you plan to come back to Great Divide! Bonuses of the season pass mean no stopping at the ticket office and you can buy a full-day lift ticket for the Half-Day rate anytime you visit any Montana Ski Area!
Invest in Your Gear
Why waste more money paying to bring your own gear when Great Divide Ski Rentals has a bargain basement? Brands like Twin-Tip Park skis, fatty powder skis, and Burton Process boards, all include skis, bindings, boots, and poles! Multi-day rentals are also discounted at $5/day. If you decide you’d like to try to snowboard also, they even have snowboard Burton “Learn to Ride” boards for beginners.
If you don’t feel like renting, don’t worry Great Divide Ski Resort makes it easy and on budget by providing a bargain basement with over 1200 full sets to choose from. Several skis start at just $49, and they also have full sets of youth skis and boots at $99!
Remember a Few Simple Tips
For best prices, always book in advance and through their website to save an additional 20% off rental gear! Why not buy instead of rent? There’re multi-day discounts at $5/day if you calculate this means a free day of rental equipment for just 5 days. Great Divide Ski Resort also has a slope just for new beginners with lessons available. Pack a few extra pairs of socks, there’s nothing worse than wet and frostbitten toes!
