WHISTLER MOUNTAIN BIKE PARK OPENING TWO WEEKS EARLY ON MAY 2
5 Day, 10 Day, Twilight, Top Of The World And Unlimited Season Passes Available Now At Early Bird Rates
WHISTLER, BC April 21, 2015 –The Whistler Mountain Bike Park will open for the 2015 season two weeks ahead of schedule on Saturday, May 2. With skiing and snowboarding still going strong in the Whistler Blackcomb alpine with a 182cm base, low snow levels in the valley have allowed trail crews to get to work on the lower section of the Bike Park to prepare the Fitzsimmons Zone for an early opening.
“We are thrilled to get everyone back in the bike park earlier than expected this spring,” says Brian Finestone, Whistler Mountain Bike Park Manager. “Despite almost having a two metre snow base in the alpine, with the help of some warmer temperatures in the valley the crew was able to get an early start to get the Fitzsimmons Zone in perfect shape.”
