On The Mountain
Fresh Tracks
Love to ski Whistler, but don’t want to wait until the gondola opens? Be nice to yourself and grab some Fresh Tracks tickets. Fresh Tracks tickets allow you to upload earlier than everyone else, around 7.15am. Once you’re at the top you can watch the sunrise while you feast on the included breakfast buffet. Or you and your friends can make a bee-line for the fresh powder.
Crystal Hut
After a morning of riding, you’ll need to treat yourself to some on-mountain dining. You’ve earned it, so why not head over to Crystal Hut and try their famous waffles. The rustic Crystal Hut is perched beside the top of Crystal Chair and looks out over the ski runs below. Indulge on some Belgian waffles and a ‘Bailey's’ hot chocolate before hitting the slopes again.
