Deer Valley Pedal Pass (free)

A signed Mountain Activity Release Form is required for all mountain bikers, whether renting a bike, bringing their own bike or using a lift or pedalling uphill themselves. For dedicated riders who thrive on the climb, this pass grants unlimited access to our mountain while skipping the cost of using lifts, gondolas, or shuttles. This free pass is issued by the lift ticket office after these guests complete a Mountain Activity Release and Pedal Pass application form. Mountain Patrol policy is to redirect any guests biking on our mountain without a Pedal Pass to the nearest Ticket Office before they continue thier ride.
