Tamarack-Brundage Indy Pass Road Trip 2024

About this event

Tamarack - Brundage 2024 Flyer

2024 TAMARACK / BRUNDAGE INDY PASS ROAD TRIP * w/option to ski 49 Degrees N. 
TRIP COST:   $799   DATES:   SATURDAY, FEB. 10 - FRIDAY, FEB. 16, 2024 

Jay and Dorothy Hart led the last Tamarack club trip back in 2009, and a lot has changed since then. The temporary yurts that were home to tickets sales, rentals, food and beverage facilities, etc. have all been replaced with permanent structures and the Village actually looks like a Village now. 

TRIP INCLUDES:
-- 6 NIGHTS LODGING at the Best Western in McCall, ID. that comes with a daily hot breakfast, and 24-hour access to pool, hot tub, sauna, and gym. 
-- During your stay, you will enjoy a wide variety of social food and beverage events planned by your trip leaders, including a Welcome Wine and Cheese Party, an Après Ski Event, and a Group Dinner. Don't be surprised if we create a game night or other special surprises.


GETTING THERE:
The Trip is set up with an assumption that individuals will take the shortest route to our lodging facility at the Best Western Plus in McCall, ID.  Google maps display the drive as 7 hours 32 minutes of straight driving from the Issaquah transit center off I-90. **Also note** On the last hour of your drive as you pass through Riggins, you will lose one hour when the Pacific Time Zone switches to Mountain Time Zone.  

Your trip leaders plan to break the drive in half by driving to Chewelah, WA on Thursday, Feb. 8th and using the INDY PASS at 49 Degrees N. on Feb. 9.  We will stay at the Nordlig Motel as we have for the past 10 years. Ask your trip leaders, Jay and Dorothy Hart for details.

LIFT TICKET INFO:
ALTHOUGH THE TRIP IS DESIGNED TO ALLOW 2023/2024 INDY PASS HOLDERS TO SKI TWO FREE DAYS *unrestricted AT BOTH TAMARACK AND BRUNDAGE RESORTS, NON-INDY PASS HOLDERS WILL STILL BE ABLE TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF SOME VERY AFFORDABLE DISCOUNTED GROUP LIFT TICKETS.  The hotel is located appx 20 minutes from Brundage and 30 minutes from Tamarack. 

While we are staying at the Best Western, the plan is to ski Tamarack 3 days, and Brundage 2 days.
We will poll our trip participants to find out how many were able to acquire an INDY PASS before they suspended sales, and how many may be planning to purchase one if they resume sales for the 2023-2024 ski season. There is a waitlist on the Indy Pass website.

Prices and information on lift tickets can be found under the event ACTIVITIES section. Please read thoroughly and select the ACTIVITIES that you are interested in. Your trip leaders will coordinate the actual purchasing of lift tickets in the fall. Feel free to contact your trip leaders with any questions.
