The demo fleet will be as of now: Norco Aurum (carbon), Santa Cruz V10.6, Giant Glory, Scott Gambler 710, and another model we can't yet tell the public I think.

The Hi-pro and lo-pro will be brand new bikes, 2015 models, no special colors this year, straight from Giant. And last year's bike will be going on sale at the start of the season! Any more info, you can Pm me. I work at the WB rental shop.

Looking to go out for a couple of weeks with my bro mid summer season and just wondering if it's best to buy a season pass for the lifts because I can't find a two week lift pass and doing 3 day passes seems to work out more than the season pass. Cheers

Was there last Aug for 3 weeks and we got season passes. We jumped on the early bird pricing!!! Highly recommended it!

Has anyone been riding Pemberton lately? I'm wondering where the snow-line is. Specifically in the Mackenzie area. Cheers!

Pretty much all clear as high as overnight sensation. Snow on the fire road though. Trails were really wet the other day.
