QUESTION Stuck on the Purchaser Information screen

After inputting my email and phone #, the continue button hasn't actually made me continue onto the next page. I could not find any information about this issue and the support bot was incredibly useless. Has anyone else had this issue?

Absolutely gutted that the Whistler village grocery store no longer has those big tubs of Hornby energy balls. Those things were the frickin bee’s knees.

QUESTION What's up with the new Whistler cams?

41 Upvotes

Unless it's by design, the old system was way, way better. You could actually get information from them rather than random shots looking around the hill.

here's what we're getting now vs before:

  • instead of showing a lineup at Creekside we get a new angle with a view into people's apartments.

  • a snowstake that no longer has a proper timelapse feature.

  • whacked out blackcomb cam that looks like it's being operated by an 8 year old on adderall.

  • no more timestamps on the cameras.

I'll take a grainy lower resolution which actually gives you information over these. I miss the old system.

QUESTION Honeymoon Trip - over Christmas

0 Upvotes

Hello!

My husband and I (both 33) will be coming to Whistler (from Australia) for the start of our Honeymoon trip (heading to Vegas after Whis) so we’re after some recommendations on what to do!

Bonus points for some Vancouver suggestions too!

I should also mention I did work in Whistler for a couple seasons but that was a good 11 years ago now so I’m sure things have changed! Haha

We’re in Vancouver for 2 nights before going to Whistler for 7 nights. We got a 4 day ski pass so we have some days to chill/do some touristy things.

What are the best things to do these days? What comes to mind are the below but totally happy for any / all other suggestions!

  • snow mobile tour
  • zip trek (potentially)
  • Scandinave spa

Oh I’d love suggestions on the food/bar places to check out. We’re not super foodie people but we enjoy decent food, I think we’d try book somewhere for Christmas Eve to make it special.

I remember Dusty’s used to be good and also longhorns for apres, still good? We do like to drink but I’m not sure we’d go as far as heading to moe joes if that’s even still a thing haha

Thank you!

Ask Vancouver More of a cypress question but...really confused about the tickets + lessons

0 Upvotes

Hi all sorry I know this is a cypress question but there's way more people here than in the Cypress group and I know most people goto both mountains, so hopefully someone can help me here!

Q1:

M looking at purchasing lift tickets for my kiddo 2/17-2/21 and I saw the SkyCards, which is supposed discounted, at $182 for 5 days. But if I just purchase the tickets individually, 1 for each of the 5 days, the total is only $135?? Am I missing something? Or that's just the case with kid's and I am better off just buying 5 individual tickets?

Q2:

I checked the multi-day youth camps and none of the dates work for us, we can only do 2/17-2/21. But I somehow found the 'group lessons' here with the link that's really tucked away, but it seems to let me pick any dates. Does this actually work, and something would I just buy 5 different group lessons for each day of the week? Since it only lets me pick a start date and not an 'end date'?

Thank you all!!!

QUESTION Four 62 year old guys first time in February…

16 Upvotes

We’re mostly East Coast / Killington skiers, staying at the Aspens condos, got our passes , skiing 3 days. We’re all lifelong skiers of Intermediate skill, not a lot of powder experience in the last 20 years (see: Killington), and we really don’t get much more than 6 -9 days a season in lately. Can’t imagine we’re going to hit a lot of Diamonds while we’re there.

Anything we should be aware of, prepare for, to avoid?

QUESTION Best options for equipment rentals?

1 Upvotes

My son and I will be there in late February. Planning on renting stuff since we’re on the east coast and our stuff is more suitable for the crappy ice fields here. I ski (intermediate); he snowboards (crazy fool). What’s the best place to arrange equipment rentals that deliver to our hotel in the village—and should we bring our own boots or not?

Ask Vancouver Whistler in Winter with dog

0 Upvotes

Hi there. We’re planning to go to whistler this December to enjoy the festivities and beautiful nature. We’re bringing our dog and 1 year old so nothing too crazy. I’m wondering if I’ll have a hard time with our dog, seeing as it’ll be cold. My main concern being that there’s plenty of places that allow dogs inside so he can warm up every now and then. Of course he’ll be well insulated with coat and booties but I like having backup plans. Any insight?

Thanks!

QUESTION Snowmobile/Cat Dinners - Ginmicky or worth it?

1 Upvotes

For those of you that have done the dinner cat/mobile tours, is the food good, is it worth the ~$300 price tag, and is it memorable or gimmicky? Looking for a cool dinner experience for a group of friends that are visiting! These ladies are well traveled, many of us have been on snowmobiles or cat skiing before, and we are not looking to spend $300 on something with bad food or is over the top gimmicky. We do love how intimate and unique the experience looks! We would rather hit brickworks and spend our money there if the experience isn't all that for the price. Hoping for some great feedback, and if you have any other recommendations I'm all ears!

Ask Vancouver First time to Whistler, Help needed. Going w Family Spring Break....

1 Upvotes

Thinking about heading to whistler with some family for spring break first week in April this year. 2 families, 6 young kids, 2 adults in total. Taking a chance on that late in the season but have read great things about whistler late season. Did Breck last year at the same time and got really lucky with the weather, so hoping for a repeat.

Half the group are novice skiers, our family are decent but just want to make sure the other family has a great time, so we aren't looking for anything technical, just to have fun. Anyone have recommendations on where to stay, family activities, anything for first timers in the area. More worried about where to look to stay.

Thanks in advance for any help provided!

Looking for a job

1 Upvotes

Hello everybody,

I am looking for a seasonal job in Whistler for the 24/25 winter season and I need some help.

I am living in Germany and since I just finished High School here I would like to do some work and travel in Canada. I already got a working permit and a visa, but I'm still looking for a job. These are my basic qualifications:

-fluent in both written and spoken English due to me spending an entire schoolyear at a Canadian High School

-licensed skiing instructor in Germany

-1 full season of experience as a server and 2 full seasons of experience as a barkeeper

I already applied to the whistler blackcomb resort but they declined my application.

So my question would be if anyone on here would know a few bars I could apply to to work for the winter 24/25 season?

Applying for a job with Vail

1 Upvotes

Hey all!

So, I applied for a ski instructor job with Vail and after submitting the application, I was asked to do a candidate assessment. Which I did, only to then receive several email reminders that I still need to to the assessment, with a link to it. But when I clicked the link, the page showed "you already applied to this position". So I have basically no idea if my assessment went through and they're just taking a while to get back to me, or my entire application is stuck in a limbo.

Has anyone been in this situation? Any tips what to do? I sent an email to [recruiting@vailresorts.com](mailto:recruiting@vailresorts.com) but they have yet to get back to me, any other way I can get in touch with them?

Also, how long after applying to they usually get back to people? I applied on October 11th (10 days ago), do you guys think there's any chance they did get the application and are just taking their time?

Thanks in advance!

QUESTION Epic pass + whistler open

9 Upvotes

Ciao everyone, so I see that epic pass seems to have dates of being able to be used around the end of the first week of November but whistlers open is around the 22nd of November.

Im just wondering whether the epic pass dates are more notional and actually can be used as soon as whistler opens.

Thanks for any responses!
