Yea whistlers the stuff. I've been to a bunch of places (Vail/Breck Area, Southern CO, Tahoe) and nothing compares to Whistler. Take a trip up there sometime if you have the chance.

I was supposed to live up in Whistler this winter with a couple friends. Two of them went through with it and are there right now Evil or Very Mad .

But I will be up probably every weekend.

I'll be there at the end of March. Won a contest at the shop, get two days on the mountain and one day of heli skiing, plus flights, food, and a suite all free.\

I'm psyched.

I just went the other day. A bit icy but they got a fresh dump when I left. Too bad we were going 50 the whole way back on the sea-to-sky. Blackcombs park is way better then Whistlers right now.

And one more thing the Peak to Peak is freaking nuts so high and the towers are huge.

kdip, my friend was there over break and he said it was epic. 29 inches in a couple days and snow for almost a week straight. Sea to sky definitely cant be done with construction too soon though. Cool scenery but the drives a b!otch!
