PORTLAND, Ore. (June 22, 2021) – The Indy Pass welcomes Eagle Point Resort in Beaver, Utah, and Sundown Mountain Resort in Dubuque, Iowa strengthening its presence in the US heartland and adding a destination in the Southwestern Rockies.

At three hours from Las Vegas and Salt Lake City and seven from most areas of Southern California, the resort is a magnet for those seeking challenging fall line terrain or wide groomers and consistently pitcher perfect runs for beginners.
“We are proud to be a part of the Indy Pass, and it’s an amazing collection of resorts; look forward to introducing Indy Pass holders to our little corner of undiscovered Rocky Mountain heaven,'' said owner Shane Gadbaw.

The popular resort features 21 runs,100% snowmaking coverage, two terrain parks, and two mountain-top lodges overlooking their namesake sunsets on the picturesque Iowa plain.

About Indy Pass -
Heading into its third season, the Indy Pass is the fastest-growing multi-mountain pass in North America. It offers 68 resorts across the US and Canada, each providing two days of skiing or riding for an affordable price. Indy Pass resorts are independent and uniquely authentic, and many are owned and operated by multi-generational families passionate about snow sports.
About Eagle Point Resort -
Eagle Point Resort is considered the quintessential hidden gem of Utah, about three hours north of Las Vegas and south of Salt Lake City, and seven hours drive from most areas of Southern California. Terrain consists of wide, uncrowded, evenly pitched groomers perfect for beginner and intermediate skiers and steep fall line terrain that never moguls given the lack of crowds. Due to a Friday-Monday operating schedule for most of the season, the resort is also known for its popular #powderfridays. The snow piles up midweek and remains untouched until the lifts start spinning again on Friday mornings. If reasonably priced ski-in/ski-out lodging, a laid-back vibe, untouched powder late into the day, and no lift lines (ever) are what you are looking for, then consider this mega-resort alternative in Utah.
About Sundown Mountain Resort -
Conveniently located in Eastern Iowa, Sundown Mountain Resort offers 21 runs, two terrain parks, four lifts with two conveyor carpets, and 475 feet of vertical. Beautifully carved through 85 acres of scenic cedar trees with state-of-the-art snowmaking, Sundown Mountain Resort is one of the best Midwest ski resort destinations. The only Midwest ski resort granted the NSAA Award of Excellence. Our highly qualified and enthusiastic staff is here to make your experience the best of all Midwest ski resorts in hopes that you will return every season.
