What are the ways you either tie it or whatever to keep it secure, also best method if you wear different jackets?

I lick it as I get out of the car and stick it to my forehead. The saliva freezes and creates a pretty strong bond and I just have to look at the lofty for them to check my pass.

I use the supplied lanyard and connect it to my one pair of snow pants. Since i never really go skiing without pants I always have my pass with me.

our passes have holes punched in them- i attach a snowboard leash or telemark leash to the pass and to my snowpants pocket zipper. then i don't put anything else in that pocket cause i don't want to lose everything when i pull out the pass.

My hill requires armbands. Nothing fancy here. Sometimes I wear it on my leg though. #YOLO

I should mention that where I ski you just have your pass, they print off your lift ticket, and they don't scan it when you get on the lift.

Armband. I miss last year when I had a line of tickets trailing 3 feet behind me from my waist.

I have one of those Pull-Zip-Retractable things that Mount snow gives you. I connect it to my belt loop.

After they scan is i pull it into my pocked and zip the pocket shut.

i loop the keyring through one of those fabric zipper pull things, on the bottom pocket of my jacket. Most people know who I am at my hill, so i leave my pass zipped in my pocket, if i get asked to show it, just have to unzip my pocket and its hanging right there.

My last jacket had what looked like a normal exterior chest pocket but the outer flap of material would flip up to show my pass in a clear plastic pocket. Hard to explain right, but it was so handy. Now I wear it around my neck.

Left front pocket, outside zipper of my snowpants. My hill actually has people physically scan the pass so it need to be visible.

I refuse to have my pass connected with anything that could snap itself or break the plastic of the pass. Most lanyards are out.
So, I hang my pass with a shoelace around my neck. Simple, durable and you can switch up any articles of clothing around it. True you need to fish it out every time you need it scanned, though I usually am doing long sidecountry tram laps so it's pretty perfect for me. One of my fist season in this ski town a few of us vowed to always wear the pass, and if caught without it there was a penalty of buying a handle for the house. The ultimate was to keep it on during intimacy with a lady. After letting it slap her in the face a few times that season, I no longer play this game.

That works okay. Last year I had my pass on one of those and I hit this down rail and fell, my pass split in half, I didn't know until the next run. So I had to pay half price for a new one = about 75 bucks.

Same, clipped to my pants, except I have a super cool retractable thing so I can pull my pass out, let it go, and it will snap right back to my pants.

connected to my belt loop via TWO key rings

I always have the same pants when i ski, so the belt-loop-way is solid in that you have easy access, dont have to move or worry about losing it, and still have easy access.
I go with two rings instead of one so it lays flat. When i had it with one ring, my pass would want to be perpendicular to my pants which gets annoying

The pocket by my knee in my pants. Vail resorts are so awesome and technically advanced that they scan through your clothing.

i got my foreskin pierced back in college and when i go skiing i put a ring on it. then i just clip my pass onto that and let my penis swig about when i ski. i've gotten some funny looks and a few handjobs from some liftys.
