Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows are offering a season pass to active duty military in exchange for a $25 donation to the Military to the Mountains program.

The partnership between the two ski resorts, High Fives Foundation, Achieve Tahoe (formerly Disabled Sports USA Far West) and Adaptive Training Foundation that will host and train 10 injured veterans of the United States armed forces on the slopes of Squaw Valley this spring. The program has raised $50,000 this season.

The resorts provide a Silver Tahoe Super Pass to military personnel, along with a note of appreciation and a challenge coin for a donation of $25, of which all proceeds support nonprofit organizations 22Kill and Military to the Mountains. Additional donations are also accepted at the resort on behalf of these organizations, and online donations will be coming soon. Those interested in purchasing this pass must present their U.S. active duty military ID at the guest services and sales center at Squaw Valley or Alpine Meadows.
