Vancouver/Whistler carpool thread

There was a thread like this last season and it seemed to work really well, and right now there are at least 3 carpool threads on the first page here so I think we could use it all in one spot. I couldn't find the old one though so I made this one.

So post here if you're going to or from Whistler, how many seats available, where from, when, etc. or post if you're in need of a ride up.

Update on my situation: Bamski and I got a ride up to Whis, but we don't have one on the way back on Sunday. If anyone coming back to Van on Sunday has any room please let me know.

i will be going up in a rental car on the 1st or 2nd of dec which is a tues/wed.

if friends can't make it or if there is a seat ill take some people up.

or if there is enough interest ill find out the price of a van for a day and you can buy your seat up there, although ill take the majority of the share of the cost for the van.

I think I am going up on tuesday... forecast calls for bluebird. Might go monday as well for a half day or something. Have to drive up and back twice unless someone has an idea of where I can park myself in between. I guess I could sleep in my car but it's tougher to find a place to do that than it used to be.

^I can only carry two but was planning on going up on the 27th... making me the new NS taxi service... but the problem is I think the person I was staying with just cut my legs out from under me after I dropped $100 on a blackout pass.

Does anyone have a couch I can borrow use of during the 27-30? Not necessarily ALL of the 27-30, but say one or two nights?

Going up on sun/monday, whenever I think they're likely to let me into lakeside to ski what fell today... probably monday. But if the roads are sketch like today I will take bus. Still if anyone else is going up we should ski.

i am one that is more than mappy to pitch in for gas...i had a situation the other day where my buddy drove me up and i slipped him $30 and he lauged and gave me my 20 back, it was a return trip.

How much do you think is a fair amount to pitch in for a ride from van (downtown) to whis? for say being the only passenger.

I have a fairly fuel efficient car, and a return trip costs a little less than 25 bucks. 10-15 is about right. 30 would make sense if you were riding in a Hummer.
