EPIC DAY PASS or EPIC PASS For booking made before December 6, 2021 Ski days must be booked in advance to ensure accessibility via your EPIC profile. You will then be able to modify the selected dates according to availability (you will have to release one date to select another if your number of days purchased is limited). You will be required, via an email received from Vail Resorts, to access your profile, add a photo, sign a waiver, select insurance to protect your use in Whistler electronically and then proceed to booking your dates. If you do not receive your laminated cards before your departure, go to the ticket office with your confirmation (voucher) and a photo ID. They will be printed and returned to the site free of charge. WHISTLER LIFT TICKETS For booking made on or after December 6, 2021 Your ski days are booked and guaranteed. It will therefore be impossible to make changes to dates on site. Ski days must be consecutive, as specified on your voucher. No need to create a profile or sign a release.

   

The voucher must be presented at the location indicated on your document. If you have booked ski/snowboard lessons or a training camp with Gendronski, you will find all the details in the next pages of this document.        

• To obtain your equipment, the voucher must be presented at the place indicated on the voucher. We strongly suggest that you pick up your rental items the day before your first day of skiing (before the shop closes), to avoid queuing up on your first day of skiing.
• If you rent your equipment for the same duration as your ski tickets, but you want to take a day off and not ski on consecutive days, you must have the agreement of the shop to keep the equipment without bringing it back to the shop for your break days. If you do not notify them and keep your equipment with you on the ski day off, you will be charged for the extra days, it will not be possible for Gendronski to support you in claiming a refund.
