You can buy an after hours pass which allows you to ski or snowboard to your hearts content from 8:00pm to 6:00am for $150.00. And better yet Grouse Mountain wants to recognise and celebrate the Vancouver 2010 athletes and volunteers. Visit Grouse Mountain Guest Services with your accreditation to receive a complimentary Grouse Mountain After Hours Pass.  How cool is that?

So how do you get up the mountain? On the DC All-Nighter Bus of course.

And if you're a fan of NBC's Today Show with Matt Lauer, Meredith Viera, Ann Curry, and Al Roker you can watch the live broadcast at 4:00 am PST everyday.

If I wasn't already running on little sleep and didn't have to be on venue in Whistler at 7:00am, I'd be up for going skiing at 2:00am.
