Whistler Blackcomb Early Bird Season Passes on Sale

Whistler, BC - After last year’s record-breaking winter and a memorable summer, powder revelers can kick start the upcoming skiing and riding season by purchasing an Early Bird Whistler Blackcomb Season Pass for 2010.2011. From August 30, through to October 11 an Unlimited adult Season Pass is available for the Early Bird price of $1,349, a saving of $350. Unlimited Season Passholders get unlimited access to the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola year-round, winter and summer.

“This season, guests will be able to take full advantage of their season pass all the way from November to May,” says Stuart Rempel, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Sales at Whistler Blackcomb. “After last season’s epic snowfall and hosting the world’s biggest party, there is a huge pent up demand for skiing and riding for the upcoming winter. The season pass gives guests the freedom to really maximize their time on the slopes throughout the winter season.”

Last winter, Whistler Blackcomb welcomed the world as the Alpine Skiing Venue for the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. And to top it all off, consistent snowfall throughout the winter months made 2009.2010 the second snowiest season on record with 1,492cm/587inches. November 2009 was also the snowiest month on record with 560cm/220 inches of snowfall.

For 2010.2011 guests can enjoy the Olympic legacies that remain from Whistler Blackcomb’s time in the world spotlight. The Men’s and Women’s Alpine Skiing Courses will be open for all to ski and ride this winter and there’s nothing more exhilarating than following in the tracks of Olympic and Paralympic heroes. Meanwhile, a recent $17.5 million investment in snowmaking infrastructure compliments Mother Nature’s good work. And finally, the new and improved Sea to Sky Highway makes for shorter travel time between Vancouver and Whistler.
