Whistler Early Bird Cross Country Ski Passes on Sale

Even though I love downhill skiing and boarding, I still think there’s something totally Zen about cross country skiing. I had many amazing days on the Mountains, but magical nights cross country skiing around Lost Lake in Whistler, when all is quiet, the night lights shimmering on the snow, and the only thing you hear is the sound of your breath. Magical. That’s why at night you’ll probably find me on the trails around Lost Lake rather than in the busy village. For us cross skiers, I thought I’d include a post about the Early Bird Sale for the trails around Lost Lake.

The Early Bird is on sale until December 7th, and you can get your passes at Meadow Park Sports Centre, call 604-935-7529 or visit the Cross Country Information on the Whistler Web Site for details.

Here are the deals before December 7th:

	Early Bird	Regular Season Pass	Savings
Adult	$179	$224	$45
Youth	$107.50	$134.50	$27
Child	$89	$112	$23
Family	$358	$448	$90
Night Adult	$89	$112	$23
Night Youth	$53.75	$67	$13.25
Night Child	$45	$56	$11
Night Family	$179	$224	$45

Night Skiing starts at 3pm and goes until 9pm. The ticket booth closes at 8pm though, so you need to be on the trails by 8pm to enjoy the night cross country skiing.

Of course Whistler has another cross country trail to offer, in the New Olympic Park. I will write a separate post for that, but for information please visit their site.

The New Olympic Park is a little ways down the road from Whistler, or before you get to Whistler. I will include maps, directions, prices and details in my next post.

Enjoy the nights with cross country skiing.

Cheers,
Victor
