The plan

Revelstoke has the highest vertical drop in North America at 5620 feet from top to bottom. It is a huge mountain. While most of the West Coast have struggled with snow, Revy has been getting pounded with snow non-stop. If you miss snow make this trip!

We will fly on Sunday March 1st to Kelowna, BC from NYC and arrive there at around 11am in via Air Canada. Flight leaves on Saturday night March 7th from Kelowna. We will have Monday to Saturday to ski in Revy. We might go for one day to Kicking Horse but that's tbd. I have already bought my tickets on Air Canada.

It is a 2.5 hour drive from Kelowna to Revelstoke.

Cost:

Flights are around 600-700.
Hotel or AirBnB will be between 80-100 per person per night. I need to know who is coming so I can find lodging for all us.
Rental car will be about 100-200 for the entire week with gas per person. Depends on how many of us go. There is a bus service to Revy from the airport but it will cost more and gives us less of a chance to explore the area.

Ski passes:

If you have an Ikon pass you get 5 days included in your pass on the Base Pass and 7 on Full. If you don't you can get 5 tickets to use in any 7 days for about $450 USD online.

RSVP yes means you will book your plane tickets ASAP so we can figure out lodging. You can PM for the exact flight I booked to match it. You can get there earlier or later and just take the shuttle to the town. We can sort that out. I will create a WhatsApp chat for those who are coming on the trip.

Revy is an amazing mountain but it does lack a lot of beginner trails. If you are okay with a limited number of beginner trails you are welcome to come but their most fun stuff is in their off-piste stuff.
