Whistler. The Power to Inspire.
Winter 2009 / 2010 promises to be one of the most incredible seasons that Whistler will ever experience. Take the vacation of a lifetime in Whistler this year. Enjoy the 2010 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games excitement, an average annual snowfall of 33.5 feet, the largest amount of skiable terrain in North America and the world record-breaking PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola whisking skiers, riders and sightseers between Whistler Mountain and Blackcomb Mountain. Before and after the 2010 Winter Games, all of Whistler Blackcomb's vast terrain will be open so you can take advantage of great room rates while skiing the same runs as the world's elite athletes.

There truly has never been a better time to visit Whistler.
