What’s an RFID card, and why do I need one?
It’s a reusable, reloadable card that gets you through Burke’s lift gates. No need to take it out or scan it by hand.
Do I need to buy a new RFID card every time I visit?
No. Hang onto it and you can reload it online for future visits. With decent care, the same card should last you years.
What if I forget or lose my RFID card?
No stress Guest Services can replace it.
Where should I keep my RFID card when I’m skiing?
Place it your left pocket by itsleft. Not in a wallet, not with your phone, not near metal. Just one card in one pocket. The gates will read it automatically as you walk through.
Can I carry more than one RFID card?
No. Carrying multiple cards can confuse the gates and slow you down. One skier = one card in one pocket.
