I put my kids in ski-school this year for the first time but forgot to get them the school age 5 day pass and now it’s too late. Just curious if anyone knows, does the club pass work to get them on the hill (ala a season pass)? Or is it only good for the lessons?

Hey everyone, I'm in need of an alignment for my truck...any recommendations in the Whistler area?

I was thinking of going to SMD, but I've never used them before.

Where should I go to get a cheap men’s haircut? I just need a fade, nothing fancy. Thanks

Desperately looking for advice for intermediate ski school! I cannot decide if I am a level 3 or 4 skier. And the way it’s divided is levels 1-3 meeting at the base and levels 4-6 meeting at alpine. I’m planning on doing 3 days (the 2 for 3 deal).

Does anyone know if it’s easy to switch in between the 2 groups since they are divided and purchased differently? I’m definatley not a beginner and was building my way up to more advanced blues in Austria 2.5 years ago before I had a baby. I’m doing ski school to build my confidence and skills, while my advanced skiing husband and in-laws explore.

Also any other tips welcome! I really want to be a confident skier and I’m hoping ski school will help! Thank you!

Hi Everyone, my friends and I are thinking about buying a 5-day Edge pass for our trip to whistler. But it says that it's exclusive to residents to Canada. We're all international students and don't have PR. Will anybody actually check this? Or do we have to resort to the day pass? TY

i don’t know if the wistler day pass will work this early in the year do i have to buy a lift ticket?

So I was up in Whistler this week and went up the mountain for a day. The plan was that i'd ski with a family member and my wife would head up to hang out with our 1 yr old. I went to the ticket office, waited about 40 mins and asked the agent for 2 ski tickets and 1 sightseeing. He said, $299 per ski ticket, $150 for sightseeing, $748 total. Wait, what happened to the WB Day pass for $133. Can we get 3 of those? Sure, good idea he said. Err ok so you were totally about to knowingly rip me off. We then waited 30 mins in the Village Gondola line but then a lady came out and said, sorry its broken, probably wont be running again today. Told to go to Blackcomb since my wife couldn't ride Excali, at this point im thinking, maybe i'll get 1 run in if im lucky. Then 10 mins later as we're walking toward Blackcomb I saw it moving so went back over, seems its working again. Went to board but wait, told I need a waiver for my baby. You need to go back to the ticket office and get this signed. At this point I raised the temperature a little, no way i'm wasting another 40 mins in that line, the guy who sold me tickets didnt mention anything of this, so eventually they took care of it.

Wondering if this is typical of Vail's ability to operate the mountain these days? The gondola and other infrastructure seem run down and unreliable. Blackcomb gondola was also down. At these prices there's absolutely no excuse for broken lifts, long lines and poor customer service. The last time I rode Whistler was 2019 and I spent about 2 hrs in total stuck on broken down lifts. I complained to customer service and they offered nothing, just "sorry about that". I noticed that the WB staff also seemed pretty beaten down and unhappy, this is the opposite of how they used to be.

Hello people of Whistler,

I am always seeing on Instagram stories of a outdoor party on some sort of patio with DJ music playing .

Can you guys give me more info on where this is and when it happens?

Cheers !

My MIL arrived in Whistler by bus yesterday and somewhere along the way she lost a small pink suitcase. Likely at the gateway bus loop. If anyone saw it around or has any suggestions for how to track it down I'd appreciate any help I can get.

Hi I purchased my 10 day edge card in March. Just to confirm do I have unlimited access to the resort (whistler fwiw) before Dec 13 which wouldn’t count toward my 10 days? I’m a bit confused.. Thanks!

No kids, looking to stay for a weekend in December. We don't actually ski/snowboard, are planning to do some snowshoeing and just general relaxation. It seems like Fairmont is better, but I'm just wondering if it's the extra few hundred a night better.

Hi everyone, I’m looking for boots and went to canski yesterday but they estimated about $700 to have them and be fit to me.

Is that the sort of price I should be looking at or are there cheaper and better options?

Would appreciate any advice. Just need boots and helmet (I’m sure most helmets I could find will be fine as long as they have mips).

Also bought some shell trousers and a shell coat from arcteryx yesterday (Beta AR because I wanted a coat that I can use at other times of the year since it’s all a bit too expensive for my liking) but not sure if that was correct either - let me know if I’ve gone incorrectly.

Thanks for any help given.

Went to line up for a learner area ticket so I could take my 4 year old on the magic carpet for a couple hours and was told at guest services the price went up to $130.. last year I paid $57. Was told by the employee too many people were abusing the tickets to ski the whole mountain… unfortunately the price isn’t listed anywhere on the website.

** edit to add this is for the pass for the Olympic learning area at midstation. The magic chair isn’t open yet for the season and will cost $65 per adult.

Me again! I’m going to upgrade my 5-day Edge Card to a full Unlimited Season Pass, but I’m trying to avoid spending the money this month if I can. Is there any way for me to upgrade after December 2nd? Has anyone ever done this?

Also, if anyone has a reliable phone number for their sales department I’m interested. Trying to get a hold of them is like trying to grab an eel…

• Fatmap has been swallowed up by Strava and enshitified
• Ullr has gone web only
• The Epic app is a bad joke
• Trailforks doesn't seem to have runs marked, and Gaia doesn't look for this use case.

What's left that's actually good?

Anyone been to the Scandinave Spa in Whistler? I would like to go with my friends. going from Jan 2-6.. How early in advance do you need to book things?

Would appreciate any info/advice.

I'm an intermediate snowboarder. I have family that joins me sometimes. It's more fun and safer to ski/snowboard together. I've tried Facebook groups but only met 1 other person so far. Any tips?

Also, I'll be heading out today, sat and sunday to Whistler. Anyone want to tag along please dm me.

I am going to ski whistler (weather permitting) 7 days Feb 15-21. I am a resident of Canada. I have never bought an edge card before, so I need a little help. FEB 15 AND 16 ARE RESTRICTED DAYS. 2 days UNRESTRICTED card is $C273 +5 days RESTRICTED is $502= Total $C775. Will this work? There are no other restriction - all lifts, all the time etc.?

Epic pass is $USD1107 - so that is out. Is there a better value way to buy tix?

Hi y'all. Here for the first time. Going to ski tomorrow. I was reading there's beginner passes you can buy at the window and that gets you to Olympic Midstation which is good for beginners. I've skied 2-3 times so I've got my bearings, but not that great.

My question is, can anyone confirm what the beginner pass gets you access to and are they available this year? I couldn't find any info online and missed calling them during business hours today. Also, are these areas set up and ready for the season?

Thanks!

Tracked out? Hoping theres still some fresh spots for tomorrow.

I went to Whistler yesterday and went by Olympic station and there was snowmaking going on. Does anyone know if the learning area is expect to be open by Friday? I'd like to take my daughter who is a complete beginner, if so. If anyone has any idea, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

Who would you recommend for internet in Creekside? I hate Telus and Rogers, but which is the lesser evil and better bandwidth? Will not be signing up for television service as we will stream everything.

If there are any sales reps that live there let me know I’d like to support somebody who works there rather than just calling in to sign up.

Thanks in advance

My friend and I are looking to take a day at one of the spas in town. As a novice with this sort of thing, what would you recommend and where? Details appreciated!

I moved to North Vancouver 6 months ago, and I’m going up to Whistler for the first time tomorrow for the day. I come from a ski resort town in Europe, but I’ve never skied in Whistler or even North America.

We’re planning on getting to Whistler around 8:30 - any advice on where to park, must do runs, anything to absolutely avoid? Thanks!

My son wants to go in the park this weekend. I know whistler doesn’t have a park yet so wondering if there is a small line in blackcomb park.

Hello everyone, going to be living in whistler and bringing my Scottish Highland Bagpipes with me.

Was wondering if I’d be considered a public nuisance if I play them out in the open?

Also if I were wanting to do some private (somewhat-brief) performances around Christmas and New Year then do you know what would be the best way for me to advertise that?

Thank you for any responses.

It’s nice to see cold enough temps for snowmaking in the Whistler village base area, but I haven’t seen any yet at Creekside. Is this because they can only run a limited number at once and Village is the priority, or is there a problem with the water supply lines at Creekside?

Many thanks
