“We are continuously looking for new and exciting ways to add value for our season passholders,” says Dave Brownlie, President and CEO at Whistler Blackcomb. “We look forward to welcoming SilverStar passholders this winter so that they can come and experience what skiing and riding in Whistler is all about.”

Connecting with Whistler Blackcomb is the latest in a series of new benefits for SilverStar loyalists. This year, the mountain’s 3,282 acres of skiable terrain was enhanced with a new Race Center and more than 90 acres of additional expert and intermediate-level tree skiing.
