No, it wouldn’t surprise me if you got a December 1st to April 30th lease. Assuming some houses/rooms don’t get filled by the end of November, that’s most likely what the lease will turn into. Still, you’d be a lot safer organising a room sooner rather than later, even if you have to pay an extra month.
Somewhere like the Southside Lodge would be best to stay at, in worst case scenario. http://www.southsidelodge.com/southside.php - note: this is very expensive for the type of accommodation.
Keep posting in this thread and we’ll catch up for a shred and beers when you arrive!
A mate in whistler summed it up pretty well with his facebook status -
“It’s not cocaine falling from the skies, it is in fact snow. But I’m pretty sure it has a similar effect on the population of Whistler.”
Stealing that because it is so true. Everyone here who hasn’t got a job so far was pretty down this morning but the snow this arvo lifted everyone spirits. It was a good 4 inches (thats what she said?) in the village and even more in Alpine/Nordic
Also, Hostel wise I would be looking at the HI-Whistler. It’s a bit out of the way, but you live like a king. It is the old athletes village so its like living in a hotel with dorms. I stayed there for 8 days and would recommend it to anyone so long as you’re social . Just checked southside… holy shit thats expensive.
3 more weeks till opening day peeps! Might even be earlier if it continues to snow. When are you getting here rider?
We arrive on the morning of November 25th. We are going to spend a couple of days in Vancouver to hit up Costco and pick up all our gear etc. I’m going to be riding as soon as possible, hopefully on the 27th. Can’t wait!
Sweet! I’ll be riding Nov 26th and 27th, hope you’ll be there :D
For sure!
Wish I was in Whistler now….
edit: link removed.. was trolled by a mate over there haha
DOH!
Original post edited.. mate was having a laugh, it was the link from 09/10 season hahahaha
Hahaha. Wouldn’t surprise me if they did though. So much snow has been falling.
Oh yeah I have no doubts about the season opening early.. as soon as I hear anything off mates over there I’ll post it up in here if it’s before the official announcement.
When are you gonna be here Finney? Or are you not?
Yeah I’ll be there for the whole season again, my flight gets in on the 30th so a little late but my contract with work at the moment goes until then. Could have gotten out of it earlier but figured some extra cash for rent etc would be worth it.
Yyyyyes. So excite. Going to be rad. Looking forward to meeting you all and hitting the slopes. Got to put a big thx to finney for helping me out so much
looking good
