Please do not book the shuttle the morning of. Doing so delays arrival at the Resort.

To ensure a smooth experience, please remember to book the shuttle in advance to guarantee your spot to or from the Resort. If the shuttle is full at the Hitching Post or when leaving the Resort and there are booked passengers waiting, the driver will need to review the manifest. Those without a booking may be asked to exit the shuttle to accommodate those who reserved their ride. We kindly ask all staff to support the driver in this process. Any concerns or issues regarding this procedure should be directed to your Supervisor for discussion. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

The staff shuttle is only for staff working that day. If you need a ride to the hill on your days off, you can book the public shuttle, hitchhike at the Hitching Post, or use the Whitewater Rideshare to get a ride to the hill.

Provincial law requires vehicles to use winter tires from October 1 through April 30 on most highways.

Proper winter tires give you better traction and will help you stay safe on wet, snowy, or icy roads. That can make the difference between you arriving safely or being in a serious crash. Learn about winter tire regulations on BC highways, and which tires are right for your vehicle here.
