Whitelines is getting all Willy Wonka this month. Nope, we’re not about to strike up the band and summon the Oompa Loompas, but we have hidden a very special Golden Ticket in one copy of the January issue, which is OUT NOW! The lucky reader who finds this Golden Ticket will be whisked off – courtesy of Crystal Ski – for the holiday of a lifetime in Winterpark, Colorado. Far away from all the Wangdoodles, and Hornswogglers, and Snozzwangers, and rotten, Vermicious Knids.

Here’s you’ll get if you do a Charlie and find it:
• 7 nights accommodation for two in a pimpin’ condo at the Zephyr Mountain Lodge. This ride in, ride out building is bang in the centre of the village, and (all-importantly) has a hot tub.
• Flights, transfers and lift-passes will be completely gratis for you and your other half or mate.
• You’ll get free snowboard rental if you want it, and a free lesson for a day if you need.

Winter Park is the oldest continually operating resort in Colorado, boasting over 3,000 acres of rideable terrain, including 143 pistes and over 1,000 acres of patrolled backcountry. It’s got no fewer than six parks and a superpipe, with more than 85 features ranging from dinky boxes to full on monster booters.

Sound good? Well then get down your local newsagents and get hold of a copy of Whitelines 107. If you’re a subscriber and you haven’t found it inside yours (and as far as we know, no-one has yet) then head to Smiths and get another one before its too late! This is a prize not to be missed. As Wonka would say “Just press a button and zing! You’re off. You can go sideways, and slantways, and longways, and backways and frontways and square ways and any other ways you can think of!”
