Whistler got it's start in the 1960's as a group of investors decided to build a ski resort with hopes of attracting the winter Olympics. Well, that dream didn't come true until the winter Olympics of 2010 as Whistler was the stage for skiing and sledding events for the Olympics.

Whistler is the largest ski resort destination in North America, with 37 lifts and over 200 runs on two different mountains, there is something for everyone. Whistler is regularly rated one of the top 3 resorts in North America.

Whistler and Blackcomb, the 2 mountains have gondolas that take you to the top in about 25 minutes right from the Whistler Village. Not only is downhill skiing popular, but also cross-country skiing, snowmobiling and even sled dogging and heliskiiing.

Whistler has in recent years become a very popular off-season destination as well for mountain biking, hiking and back packing.
