History of the Epic Pass
Back in 1957, Pete Seibert, who had served in the 10th Mountain Division during World War II, and Earl Eaton, who had served as an Army engineer, returned to the same mountains where they had trained during the war. They came back with a new mission: “to create the most beloved mountain resorts in the world.”
In 1962, Vail Mountain opened with two chairlifts and one gondola. It would later become Vail Resorts.
The Epic Pass was launched in 2008, and the Epic Military Pass was introduced in 2018.
