Ski and Snowboard News, Deals, and Events

Revelstoke Mountain Resort has had their season passes on sale since July. But the end of the sale draws near, with the deadline Oct. 1.

The season pass sale can save purchasers $130-338 off the regular season pass rates after Oct. 1. Sale rates include adult passes at $659 CAD, college student passes at $449 CAD, youth and senior passes at $439 CAD, and child passes at $229 CAD.

Families can even get bigger breaks. Family rates apply when purchasing season passes for three or more people, which include parents or children under 19 years old living at the same residence. The family discount subtracts $20-100 from the sale price of the pass.

Passholders get additional benefits tacked on to their season passes. They are eligible for a $75 discount on a day of early season cat skiing Dec. 5 - Jan.1.

Parents also registering children in one of Revelstoke's weekend Snow School programs before Oct. 1 can receive 10 percent off the program cost. The discount for passholders applies to Revy Tots, Revy Rippers, and the All Mountain Club.

Season pass applications are available online. You can download it to e-mail, fax, or mail back to the season pass office. Revelstoke aims to begin lift operation Dec. 5.
