Skye Canyon partners with Lee Canyon

Skye Canyon, a 1,700-acre master-planned community in northwest Las Vegas is a top-tier sponsor of Lee Canyon, formally known as the Las Vegas Ski & Snowboard Resort.

All Skye Canyon residents will receive a Skye Pass that includes special pricing on Lee Canyon's lift and snow tubing tickets, equipment rentals, ski passes and lessons, with summer recreation benefits. The one-year partnership runs through November.

Skye Canyon joins other top-tier Lee Canyon sponsors, such as GoPro, Spy Optics, Subaru, Under Armour and the U.S. Forest Service. Skye Canyon will have a presence throughout the resort and will sponsor designated youth and family events during the winter season.

"Skye Canyon is the next-generation master-planned community where those who enjoy the great outdoors can easily engage in experiences that enrich their lifestyle," said Garry Goett, CEO of Olympia Cos., developer of Skye Canyon. "We have created a series of on-property amenities that support the values of our residences. With Lee Canyon, a partner who is aligned with our values, we are taking it a step further. We look forward to more partnerships of this nature, and we know it will be a huge benefit for our residents."

Lee Canyon will have a presence in Skye Center, an 8,142-square-foot homebuying center opening in March, which will serve as the community hub and include a juice bar, open-air cantina, coffee and wine bar, outdoor patio, fireplace and fire pits, and interactive home finding tools. Lee Canyon will be included in the branding of a vintage Lee Canyon ski lift chair, which will be used as community bench at Skye Center.

"Skye Canyon is a community that embraces our values and shares our love and respect for the outdoors and healthy living," said Kevin Stickelman, president and general manager for Lee Canyon. "The Skye Pass makes it easier for families to introduce their kids to sports like skiing and snowboarding, and offers the entire family the chance to experience the Spring Mountains recreation opportunities year-round. We welcome Skye Canyon residents into our mountain family."

Skye Canyon's homebuilders include Pulte Homes and Woodside Homes, which debuted models in August, and Century Communities, which launched its models in January. Pardee Homes will unveil its community in mid-2016.
