Skiing in Whistler

Each spectacular in its own right, Blackcomb boasts the greatest vertical rise in North America, rising 5,280 feet, with Whistler close behind in claiming the second greatest vertical rise at 5,020 feet. Both mountains provide a huge range of beginner, intermediate and advanced skiing & snowboarding.

Powder seekers might prefer to head for the ‘inbounds backcountry experience’ offered by Whistler’s Flute bowl, or ski the Olympic downhill course which drops all the way to Creekside.

Those of a macho disposition will find it hard to resist Spanky’s Ladder on Blackcomb. This involves a trip up onto Blackcomb Glacier, ski down from here to the entrance of Spanky’s, a short hike up is required, and then brace yourself for one of the most awesome, spectacular runs of your life.

Every visitor to Whistler should experience the Peak Chair; there is a blue run down, so it is within the scope of all but the complete beginner. Choose a clear day and prepare to be stunned by the sight of the Black Tusk rising up out of thin air. The skiing here is unbelievable.
