Few things get skiers and riders more excited than the words "early opening," which is why Whistler Blackcomb is thrilled to announce that Whistler Mountain will open six days early, on Friday, November 19. Blackcomb Mountain will open on Thursday, November 25, Whistler Blackcomb's official opening day.
"New snow and low freezing levels, along with the hard work of our mountain operations, grooming, and snowmaking teams mean we can open Whistler Mountain on Friday, November 19," says Doug MacFarlane, mountain manager at Whistler Blackcomb. "Though early season conditions will apply, having those first few turns of the season is a great feeling and we're happy to make that happen for our guests six days earlier than planned."
Whistler Mountain will open on Friday, November 19 at 8:30am. Lift and terrain details will be announced early next week.
Early season conditions apply and caution should be exercised at all times as the terrain that will be available is best-suited for intermediate to advanced riders and skiers. With early season conditions it is extra important all mountain signage is obeyed and guests stay within the marked operational boundary. The signage and rope to look for will say "Temporary Boundary" during the early season. With early season snow-pack, guests should be aware of rocks and other hazards below the snow surface.
