$1630

Price shown includes round-trip air & 6-day adult lift ticket.

7 nights (Sat-Sat) in the ski-in/ski-out Fernie Slopeside Lodge (hotel rooms).  6-day lift ticket, including one day at Kimberly (including the bus ride) and RT air from Washington Reagan National Airport (DCA) to Calgary (details below).

Emergency medical, evacuation & repatriation insurance (not cancellation insurance) is included.  Note that this is not cancellation coverage and will not provide any relief if you have to cancel from the trip before it begins, whether for medical or other reasons.  You may upgrade your coverage to include cancellation coverage by clicking on the link.  It will take you to a flyer describing the options available, including a link to the detailed coverage plan.  Note that the "Cancel for Any Reason" (CFAR) option must be purchased within 14 days of paying your initial deposit on the trip.
Located at the base of Fernie Alpine Resort, Fernie Slopeside Lodge is a comfortable ski in/ski out hotel-style accommodation.  Our rooms have cable TVs, a coffee maker and a small fridge.  The Lodge features two indoor hot tubs, lockers for ski and board storage, and laundry facilities.  Located steps from the village plaza, including Legends Restaurant and the Slopeside Deli, and 5km from the City of Fernie, the Fernie Slopeside Lodge offers convenience for guests to enjoy all that the Elk Valley has to offer. 

The listed price includes double occupancy in the lodge and a 6-day (adult) lift ticket (including a day at Kimberly resort).  Add $218 for the single supplement if you want a room to yourself.  A modest ($55) discount is offered to 65+ seniors.  Non-skiers or those holding a “full” Epic Pass save $270 on the package without lift tickets.  Note that while the “full” Epic Pass is good for 7 days of skiing at the Resorts of the Canadian Rockies (which includes both Fernie and Kimberly), less costly passes such as the Epic Local Pass and Military Epic Passes do not currently include access to these partner resorts.

Air Schedule (Subject to Change):

Outbound flights updated 3/16/19 due to the grounding of the B737 MAX fleet.

Note:  Air Canada partners with United Airlines under the Star Alliance for accruing frequent flier miles.  We will provide our tour operator with your United Mileage Plus number if you have included it in your profile.  *Operated by Air Canada Express-Jazz.

Membership Requirement:  Your club membership must be current when signing up for the trip and throughout the duration of the trip.  The trip has been "sanctioned" through the Blue Ridge Ski Council.  Current members of other BRSC member ski clubs may register for the trip.

Payment Schedule:

We’ll confirm your registration when we receive and acknowledge your deposit:  Mail (or give) a check to the trip leader, payable to the Pentagon Ski Club, or pay your trip invoice online with a credit card.  Partial payment of trip invoices online is not possible – you must pay the entire invoice – but we’ve created a work-around:  After signing up (registering) for the trip, then also register for the “Trip Deposit – Credit Card Payments” trip that we’ve set up and select one or more trips for which you wish to pay the initial deposit.  You may then pay the resulting invoice, consisting of only those initial deposits, online with a credit card.  You may also make partial payments with credit cards at club meetings.
