Whitewater and Schweitzer Become Sister Resorts

Pass Holders Receive Benefits on the Other Side of the Border

Nelson, BC - Whitewater Ski Resort is pleased to announce that they have recently adopted Schweitzer Mountain Resort as its sister resort. Pass holders at each resort will now receive discounts at their sister mountain. Whitewater’s season pass holders will ski free when booking lodging at Schweitzer’s White Pine Lodge, Selkirk Lodge, or condos when they use a special promo code. Schweitzer’s winter season pass holders will receive 50% off lift tickets at Whitewater, making the adult day ticket price $31.25 CAD.

“We couldn’t be happier to add Schweitzer as a sister resort”, said Anne Pigeon, Whitewater’s General Manager of Indoor Operations and Marketing. “The similar core values of each resort along with the resemblance between Nelson and Sandpoint made it an easy decision to become partners”.

Schweitzer and Whitewater are located less than 240 kilometers apart, making the typical drive time around 3 depending on road conditions and border traffic.

“Schweitzer is excited to offer this new benefit to our dedicated pass holder’s”, said Dave Kulis, Schweitzer’s Director of Marketing and Sales. “We look forward to welcoming our friends from Whitewater this winter, and building upon our new sister resort partnership”.

Both resorts will be attending ski shows in Calgary, Toronto, and Seattle this fall. Schweitzer will also be at the Boston, Portland and Minneapolis shows while Whitewater will be at the Vancouver and Denver show. Stop by the booths to learn more about the new sister resort benefits. In addition, the city of Sandpoint, ID and Nelson, BC has had recent conversations about the possibility of a town partnership.
