Compared to last year, skiers and snowboarders will pay $5 more for a day on Bald Mountain during peak season.

Sun Valley Company announced its one-day adult lift ticket price, which for Baldy is $85 in peak season—Dec. 26 to Jan. 2—and for Dollar Mountain is $42.

In recent history, the price has increased year to year with each bump usually being larger than the previous year's. A peak-season day pass for Baldy cost $66 in 2004, $67 in 2005, $69 in 2006, $74 in 2007, $79 in 2008, and $80 in 2009.
