Ski Pass Cost Calculator: 4 Days Cost $440.00 in All
On the defaults — 4 days at $95.00 a day plus $60.00 rental — ski pass cost is $440.00 in all, $380.00 for days alone. This is the ski pass cost tool: days times the price a day is the pass cost, plus rental once for the trip is the total — a trip guessed from the day price alone tells you nothing until the day count and rental behind it are known.
What does $440.00 in all mean?
It means four days at $95.00 a day cost three hundred and eighty dollars for days, plus $60.00 rental, for $440.00 in all. The days set how many days are skied, the price sets what each day costs on the mountain, and the rental is added once for the trip: one more day adds a full $95.00 without raising the rental, and higher rental adds cost to the total without skiing a single extra day. The only judgement is the day itself — a day is one day on the mountain, and a half day bought at a half-day price is not a full day unless it is priced as one.

Three things to check before you trust the number
First, check the day count honestly: 4 days must be days actually skied, not days counted twice because a trip was stretched over a weekend when only the mountain days count — a day counted that was never skied adds $95.00 of phantom cost. Second, check what the day price includes: $95.00 a day must be the lift price for one day, rental excluded where rental is charged separately — a price that already includes rental, with rental added again, double-counts the rental. Third, check the rental against the trip: $60.00 must be the rental for the trip, not a per-day charge — a per-day charge multiplied by four is a different total, so treat the rental figure as the trip charge, not the per-day charge.
Worked example
4 days, $95.00 a day, $60.00 rental. Days cost: 4 × $95.00 = $380.00. Total: $380.00 + $60.00 = $440.00. In practice that means a long weekend on the mountain costs four hundred and forty dollars, and the $380.00 days-only figure is the one to set against a season pass, since a season pass quote usually excludes rental.
Every branch, checked
At 6 days instead of 4, the cost rises to $630.00 — $570.00 for days plus $60.00 rental. At $110.00 a day instead of $95.00, the cost rises to $500.00 — $440.00 for days plus $60.00 rental. At $85.00 rental instead of $60.00, the cost rises to $465.00 — $380.00 for days plus $85.00 rental. At 3 days instead of 4, the cost falls to $345.00 — $285.00 for days plus $60.00 rental.
The reverses, worked backwards
The days behind $440.00 are 4: at 3 days the cost is $345.00; at 6 days it is $630.00. The price behind $440.00 is $95.00: at $80.00 a day the cost is $380.00; at $110.00 a day it is $500.00 — the price never touches the day count, only the price each day pays.
What the defaults assume
The defaults assume 4 days at $95.00 a day with $60.00 trip rental. They do not assume lodging, food, travel, or a season pass — a trip with a hotel stay needs those costs added on top, so treat $440.00 as the pass-plus-rental cost, not the all-in trip cost.
Who uses this
- A skier budgeting a long weekend: the $440.00 is the figure to budget for.
- Someone comparing a season pass with day passes: the $380.00 days-only figure compares fairly with a pass price.
- A household counting a ski trip: the rental split shows where the money goes.
- A person weighing a shorter trip: the branch figures price each option exactly.
Accuracy & limitations
The arithmetic is exact for the inputs entered; the judgement is the day count, the price basis, and whether rental is really a trip charge. Real trips vary with peak pricing, multi-day discounts, and rental deals — so treat $440.00 as the planning cost for 4 days at $95.00 plus $60.00 rental, and check it against the resort price list before budgeting.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a ski trip pass cost for a long weekend?
$440.00 on the defaults: 4 days at $95.00 a day are $380.00, plus $60.00 rental — $380.00 + $60.00 = $440.00.
Is rental charged per day or per trip?
Per trip in this calculator: $60.00 is added once, not once a day. If your shop charges per day, enter the full trip total instead.
What counts as one day?
One day on the mountain: a half day bought at a half-day price is a different day price, not a full $95.00 day.
Does the day price include rental?
No, on the defaults: $95.00 a day is the lift price alone, with skis and boots in the rental figure.
How do I compare day passes with a season pass?
Compare the season pass price with the $380.00 days-only figure first, then add rental: day passes win only if the pass beats $440.00 in all.
Why is the total not just days times price?
Because rental is a real cost on top of the days: $380.00 for days plus $60.00 rental is $440.00, and leaving it out understates the trip.
