Whistler has an excellent reputation! The bowls are world famous and will keep all experts happy and the proximity to the coast ensures plenty of precipitation! The modern lift system is efficient and early and late season conditions can be excellent!
Intermediates are very well catered for; there are plenty of cruising runs- some are in beautiful wooded areas, others above the tree line. The glacier on Blackcomb is a wonderful place for starting off piste skiing and riding. The purpose built resort is traffic free and provides lots of entertainment, from lively après ski to incredible restaurants. In addition, Vancouver is just 2 hours away and offers excellent shopping and other attractions
