Hey Guys i am currently in my work an travel trip in British Columbia and i want to ski as much as possible and as many ski resorts as possible. I just discovered the Rockies card were I can ski at fernie, kicking horse, Kimberley and nakiska. Do you know more of these cards or any tips on how I could save generally a lot money here? Also tips on housing even though I found some good places in airbnb
Thanks guys✌

More usefully, don't drink. You know, much.

I barely drink at all, for medical reasons, which is honestly one of the most frustrating and depressing things in my life, but the amount of $$$ I save compared to everyone else doing a season is fantastic. Easily the best way to save money, and you get more skiing time cause you're not hangin the next day. Win-win.

Don't let this get you down so much, IMO you're really not missing out on much, and in the case of heavy drinking you're probably gaining quite a bit from this.

Thanks, I try not to, but it's very difficult. We all know how much people like to drink after a day on the slopes, you can't escape the drinking-scene in any ski resort and I hate coming across as a buzz-kill. But yeah, I save so much money and also better for your general health of course. I just get my stoke-levels from skiing, rather than getting high or wasted.
