WhistlerBlackcomb eases loading with RFID technology

Remember those guys who used to hang out at the bottom of lift maze and zap your passes with a bar-code scanner? Well, guess they’ll be doing other jobs at Whistler Blackcomb this year because North America’s No. 1 resort (as voted by readers of SKI Magazine) is adopting RFID (Radio Frequency Identification Device) technology on all of its lifts. The device is a small circuit — actually a tiny antenna — integrated into your access card, which contains information pertaining to your lift ticket, season pass, or Edge Card. When you approach the access gate, the circuit in your card will automatically register and open the gate.
