As expected there is rarely any discount available during X'mas.  Best is to book for an apartment where you could make your own meal.  Otherwise dinning at Whistler is expensive too.

BigWhite和Silver Stat准备三月去， 所以就不考虑了。 Big Sky倒是可以考虑， 另外两个我得查查在哪里。  ...

X'mas time for BC interior is a big risky.  Feb and early March is definitely a better timing.

Resident who live in BC and WA could apply for Whistler Edge card.  Edge card comes in 1/3/5/10 days (number of days equal to the number of day tickets).  Other then the ticket discount, there is special for accommodation from time to time.  Obviously for people living in the East, they can't apply for this card.  However, you could ask other people (like lupo or me) to check Edge Card's deal as well.

Accommodation on the Creek side (the back side of Whistler) is usually cheaper.  However, all the main facilities are on the village side (e.g. IGA supermarket, liquor store and most of the restaurants).

You basically don't need a rental car for just skiing at Whistler.  If you're staying in the village, everything is withing walking distance, plus there is shuttle bus as well.

Whistler is an upscaled resort style place and so as their price in the holiday season.  For us who lives in Vancouver, we usually just do our day trip (1.5 hr each way) to Whistler.

I didn't know that they changed to all Canadian now (it used to be BC and WA only).  That's good for those of you not living in BC.

EdgeCard gives you the best ticket price most of the year (unless on those days that you could use other discount coupon, like http://skifreedeals.com/)
