its $700 canadian for 8 days of shredding the park. however you have to pay for your housing n shit, but it seems worth it.

If you come for a month and buy a pass and everything I think it could be good... For just 1 week I don't know what's the best... but it's still quite expensive

its 1200 canadian so maybe it isnt that great of a deal after all. it says you can stay in the employee housing or sometihng for like $10 a night but food and transportation and everything adds up fast.
are there many 18+ campers? because i wanna go next summer but ill be 19.

just poach the camp, it so easy plus this years u have to start higher for the jump line making it way easier... because if u want to ride the camp u better pay for the package instead of the 700$ pro camp. but that just my opinion

No. that means that no COC personel is skiing with you. the entrance to the park will still be watched. im sure you have some sort of lanyard or something to identify you so people cant poach.

700 bucks for 8 days ain't worth it. Spend double on your airfare, fly to New Zealand and ski a month for less that 700. At a park that is better than COC's (SnowPark).

Did anyone scroll down a little and read this?

"If you are Canadian and under 16, our camps qualify for the $500 Fitness Tax Credit. It's a new tax credit that the government just passed as a way to support parents in getting their kids more active. Simply file your camp receipt with your taxes and you will get a $500 tax credit from the government. Sweet! Come to camp and save your parents money. Like that has ever happened before. Click on the link to get all the details straight from the government."

Pretty funny, and a sick deal for young Canadians


Also back on topic, 700 dollars can get you a spring pass to Mammoth($300) or Hood($140), All Transportation(~300-400 depending on how hard you search for tickets/shuttles), and a decent chunk of your food. If you camp, live in employee housing, or crash on a floor somewhere, you could stay for months without spending much over $1000.
