WINTER
ACTIVITIES 2007
Elevate is owned and operated by two local professionals,
we pride ourselves on recommending only the tours
and activities that we would take part in. All
of the companies and tours (because there are
a LOT of them) are hand picked by both Shelley
and Danielle. Our criterion is stringent and based
on value and customer service. Note our favourites
and call or email us to plan all of your holiday
activities, we take care of everything for your
peace of mind.
SKIING/SNOWBOARDING
Obviously – that is why you are here!
Whistler/Blackcomb is a huge ski resort
and can be intimidating for first timers.
We have lived here for 10 years and we are
still learning new runs and hidden gems
on the mountain.
We strongly recommend that you inform us
of your entire groups ability levels before
arrival as well as your individual expectations
of your ski/snowboard experience during
your stay in Whistler. We can then help
you make the most of your time and money
(lessons are NOT cheap) by explaining the
unique and varied packages available. From
Roxy All Star Womens Camps to Dave Murray
Ski Camps to Extremely Canadian; big mountain
skiing clinics – there is a niche
for everyone.
We cannot stress enough how important it
is for your mental health to let us organize
lessons and lift tickets before you arrive.
Time and time again people are stuck waiting
in long line ups for tickets, lessons, rentals
on the first day of their vacation, NOT
how we would want to spend our time so why
would we let you do the same.
