Replying to How to get to Revelstoke for cheap?

I'm trying to take a trip to Revelstoke around the beginning of January since I have an Ikon pass, might as well take advantage. I'm lucky enough to have a friend that gets free flights through United, the problem is that the shuttle to Revy from the airport is well over $100 which is nuts and I'm not about to do that. We're both 19, so we can't rent a car either. Are we screwed? Or is there cheaper options that I don't know about, is it a very hitchhiking friendly area? Open to any ideas
