I am thinking of planning a trip sometime in September to go up to Whistler for the first time. I have been trying to make it out there literally the last 6 years of me riding and I just haven't been able to make it yet (due to injuries or lack of funds).
Here is what I am thinking so far (I would really like to get some advice and/or your thoughts on everything).
-Looking to do a Friday - Sunday trip (10 days total). Looked at airfare/hotel and it looks like it would be about $900-$1000 just for that.
-Should I ship or fly with my bike? What kind of costs am I looking at to do either?
-Lift tickets. I know nothing about what it would cost for these. Tried looking around and seemed to be pretty unsuccessful. What kind of cost am I looking at here to ride the lifts the whole time I am there? Are there any lift ticket packages that will cover the 9-10 days of riding?
-What kind of things should I expect to pay for while I am out there (besides the obvious food/drink)?
-Anything else you think I should know for a first timer out there?
