Crystal Mountain becomes the first Ikon Pass destination to record early winter snowfall.

Crystal Mountain in Washington became the first Ikon Pass destination to see snow, kicking off the 2026-27 Northern Hemisphere winter season in August. Montreal Gazette reports that most snowfall landed on the mountain's upper elevations, visible across Northway, Mountain Top, and the 9 side of the peak.
Ikon Pass now connects over 70 mountain destinations across five continents. The pass is on sale now for the 2026-28 seasons at ikonpass.com, giving skiers and snowboarders access to iconic resorts worldwide.
Snow arrived earlier than typical as temperatures dropped at higher elevations. Financial Post notes that accumulation concentrated on Crystal's upper slopes, where colder air lingers longest. The Northway and Mountain Top runs showed the most visible coverage.
The Ikon Pass network now spans 70+ resorts across North America, Europe, South America, Asia, and Oceania. Calgary Sun reports that the pass gives members unlimited or limited-day access to world-class mountains. The pass appeals to skiers who want variety without buying individual season passes.
Ikon Pass holders can now purchase passes for both 2026-27 and 2027-28 seasons. The Observer confirms that early sales are underway on the official website. Buyers lock in current pricing and plan multi-year mountain trips across the global network.
