BANFF, AB — There’s still time to grab your 2011-12 Sunshine Village season’s pass at discount rates.
Sunshine has extended the deadline on its season pass sale until Oct. 15. That means adult skiers and riders can get a full 194 days of access to Canada’s Best Snow for just $799. The family rate is a low, low $1,849.
This year’s pass is better value than ever, with deep discounts on retail, ski school, tuning, food and beverage at Sunshine, as well as special deals at the world-famous Sunshine Mountain Lodge. It’s Banff’s only ski-in, ski-out accommodations, with its highly acclaimed new West Wing.
