    The Passport is a great way for Maine families to try new winter activities, including downhill and cross country skiing, snowboarding, ice skating, snow tubing and more.

    Every fifth-, sixth- and seventh-grader in Maine is eligible for a Passport, which contains free and discounted tickets, lessons, and rentals at more than 50 outdoor recreation areas all over the state!
