ridehikeclimbski Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 I used to stay at the Super 8 when I skied Whistler in pre 911, now I finally got my birth certificate and want to head up there. When I got on the Super8.com...no listing on the motel, did it change owners and what is current name ? My kids sure like the slide in the indoor pool. Thanks for any answers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyclimb Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 the hostel is also really nice there, but probably not the best place for kids. Pictures of lamas, and goats strung up in barbed-wire tend to adorn the entry way Really cheap(12 dollars a night). Nice amenities. How much is the "super 8" or whatever??? probably like 30 eh?

skyclimb Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 I answered my own question, 94 bucks a night. But hey, they have irons in the rooms, perfect for waxing up the board after a long day of riding Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoboy Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 That the new hostel though? I think it is a bit nicer these days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyclimb Posted February 4, 2004 Share Posted February 4, 2004 yeah, that place rocks! All climbers pretty much, good place to meet people for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colt45 Posted February 5, 2004 Share Posted February 5, 2004 For a super cheap ski trip, you can always camp in Squamish. The Chief campground is free in the winter! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ridehikeclimbski Posted February 5, 2004 Author Share Posted February 5, 2004 Thanks for the links to the accomodations however after reading all the hoopla on how to be a ultra cheapskate on CC.com, I decided to skin up Blackcomb with AT and camping gear. Get a non-validated ticket from a supermarket as mentioned on an old thread , build a multi level snow cave per instructions from the new thread on hardcore snow-camping and after reading about RUNNY eggs I rather cook my own breakfast. Heck I could spend a week or a month up there skiing the upper lifts for free !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
