Frequently Asked Questions
When is the scavenger hunt happening?
The scavenger hunt runs all Mountain Lifestyle Wellness Weekend, from Saturday to Sunday, during lift operating hours.
Where do I start?
Take the Sunburst Chairlift up, register at the registration tent, take a photo of the checkpoint map, and begin your hike from there. Look out for QR code checkpoints throughout the trails. Hint: there are some checkpoints at the bottom of the lift, but we recommend you grab a photo of the map first.
How do I register to participate?
Scan the registration QR code at Beacon Basin (top of Sunburst Chair) from 10:30am each day, and fill in your details. It only takes a minute!
I scanned some QR codes while hiking and didn’t know what they were - can I still join?
Yes! To be eligible for prizing, all participants must be registered. Registration is available Saturday through Sunday 10:30am until 6:00pm at the Beacon Basin, located at the top of Sunburst Chairlift.
What can I win?
There are multiple grand prizes!
Stay tuned for more details.
Do I have to scan all checkpoints to be eligible to win?
Nope! Each checkpoint = 1 entry (no duplicate entries allowed).
For example: If you scan 10, you get 10 entries. If you scan 1, you still have a shot - just with 1 entry. The hunt runs all weekend, so do your best to collect all 30 checkpoints across the two days.
When are THE winners announced?
After the event ends on Sunday, we’ll draw the lucky winners, and contact them throughout the week via email.
I don’t have cell service / my phone didn’t work — what should I do?
Don't forget to take a selfie or picture of the checkpoint to legitimize your entry. Keep the tab open. Once you revive your phone and Wi-Fi capabilities, you can re-enter them before the cut-off time of 6:00pm on Sunday.
If the QR codes are not working for your mobile device, please forward all checkpoints in an attachment to events@sunpeaksresort.com. Files too big? Send via a transfer site such as SwissTransfer.
Can I play more than one day?
Yes! Feel free to participate both days to gather all 30 checkpoints. Limit is one entry, per checkpoint, per person across the weekend (no duplicate entries allowed). If you scan checkpoint 1 on Saturday, and you scan checkpoint 1 again on Sunday, your Sunday scan will not count for an extra entry.
What should I bring or wear?
You will need a lift ticket valid for the day of your hike. We recommend comfortable shoes, water, your phone (with a charged battery), and maybe a snack! Dress for the mountain weather; layers, sunglasses, headwear, and sunscreen are your friends. We recommend hiking in a group where possible.
What is the easiest trail?
We recommend the Vista Trail, which runs in a 1.5km loop. It's the perfect starting trail for beginners and little ones, and could land you two or more checkpoints!
