    Default Holy F@*# Great deal to ski Whitefish!

    Guys,

    February 2013 Whitefish Gong show is now accepting reservations ... Feb 1, 2, 3

    It's $309 per person based on quad occupancy ($359 double) including 2 days lift ticket, bus ride there and back and 2 nights hotel stay at Pine Lodge. Hotel has a bangin' continental breakfast as well.

    For the last 5 years Backside Tours has posted this trip to Montana. The ski hill is ridiculous (height comparable to Revelstoke with wider and more terrain)


    Drinks in the bar in town are 3.25, the bulldog takes Canadian Money at par and has a poker table in the back ... Great norther has live bands, the busloads of people unload when we get there approx 8-0pm and then we hit the bars til late

    There will be many single girls, vast variety of skill level of snowboards/skiers and a stupid amount of alcohol and debauchery.

    February 1,2,3 Bus leaves Friday at 2pm returns Sunday approx 10pm.

    Bus is licensed w/ on board bathroom, there will be some wacky dress up theme, smoke breaks and stops in Fernie for food.

    The signup link is here: http://www.backsidetours.com/trip/CENC06-S1301

    Trust me you want to, the experience is phenomenal ...

    Boxes of wines being passed down the bus aisles for overhead shots (wine lines) Joe brings a jerry can full of some sort of hardcore mix (beergarita nearly floored that section of the bus 2 years ago ... last year was a bit more mild with champagne and orange juice)

    If there's enough people then a keg party at a local brewery will be organized for 10bux per person which is more than enough to get you fucked up to enjoy the rest of the festivities.

    Expect to sleep little, ski/ride lots, drink much and ignore your hangover.

    We have been THE icon bus every year to still be drinking on Sunday on the way home.

    F'n Epic.



    hope this pic works..

    that sounds like a good deal. Too bad I just came back from a ski trip and new semester is just starting

    Is this an annual trip/deal or something? Might have to keep this in mind for next year.

    Whitefish ski trip > any other close hill ski trip

    Last time we were there we were doing $4 Jagerbombs all night at some hole in the wall bar. Booze and food is so damn cheap!

    Crymson: I'm 31, theres people that go there I think as old as 40's ... dont think i've seen anyone in their 50's

    Specify on the sign up link that you want to be on Baker's bus ...its the party bus, the other one might be a bit more conservative

    Went to whitefish for new years, there's was tons of snow. Didn't see a single bare patch the entire time we were there. They also had 3 snowboard parks set up. That pic above pretty much describes it, snowghosts everywhere!
    Oh and $3.25 drinks at the hill and $7 jugs of Pabst in town

    that little train caboose themed cafe downtown has the BEST corned beef hash i've EVER had... that with some tabasco is a great hangover cure.

    It is; however, I just fucked up my knee on Sunday and I can barely walk. I'm trying to see if I can transfer my ticket so if anyone is still keen on going, hit me up. I just sent an email so we'll see.

    If I can walk in the next couple of days (which I highy doubt) I'll still go but as of now, my ticket is for sale (if they'll let me).

    Whitefish is fucking awesome though and such a cheap place to ride, party and...party some more!

    Whitefish is an outstanding resort, no doubt about that, but I think the above statement is a bit misleading. If you mean "height" as in summit elevation, then it makes sense (Revelstoke is 483 feet higher at the summit) but if you mean vertical drop then it's completely untrue.

    Revelstoke has over twice as much vertical drop as Whitefish.

    This is on again ...

    http://www.facebook.com/groups/160587270646069/?fref=ts

    Feb 1, 2, 3 2013. $309 share a bed, $359 your own bed

    Based on 2-4ppl per room.

    Includes LICENSED (aka you're obligated to drink your face off) bus there and back, 2 days lift ticket, 2 nights hotel. Same bus takes you to the ski hill AM, returns you to hotel PM.

    Sunday bring all your luggage onto the bus, get a good seat and throw fresh clothes on it to change into for the drive home - we leave right from the ski hill.

    Is this a suitable trip for non-drinkers?

    For sure, Maybe go on the other bus though... they're a bit more tame ... I always ride on Baker's bus so maybe you want to say you DON'T want to be on bakers bus when you sign up.
