On a Personal Note
| Our favourite season in Whistler and why. | Winter sports are of course why many come to Whistler but we prefer the late spring, summer ana early fall seasons. Besides fishing, biking and hiking there are outdoor restaurants to sit at, sip a beer and watch the people. There are he numerous biking and hiking trails for all levels of participants. The lakes are great for swimming but the best time i when I take out my float tube and fly cast for trout on Nitka lake. |
| What makes Whistler so special and unique? | 7,000 vertical feet of terrain and 150 ski runs for all levels of boarder or skier |
The Drive to Whistler
| Best radio station | Mountain Radio FM |
| Best things to see on the way to Whistler | The beauty of Howe Sound, Porteau Cove with clean toilet and picnic area, the mining camp prior to Furry Creek, The numerous eagles in Brackendale(Jan_Feb) |
| What I like about the drive | The beauty of Howe Sound, the sections along the rivers, numerous parks and glades to pull over, the hwy maintenance crews that keep the road way clean of snow, The DUI stops by the RCMP out of Vancouver and in Whistler. |
| Worst thing about the drive | The stretch along Howe Sound is beautiful but there are still some twisty/turny areas with sharp curves. There is no longer alot of construction. The Hwy 99 is heavily patrolled, especially on weekends. Drive the speed limit but watch out for speeders in a hurry to get to or from Whistler. |
Whistler Activities
| Best places to go swimming | Meadow Park year round Lost Lake and Alta Lake beaches in the summer |
| Best rainy day activities | Cozy up and read a book in the unit. Check out the Library/Museum in Village, Take in a movie. Go to the Meadow Park Sports center for swimming, workout, skating. |
| Funky stores | Three years ago, my wife and I are bike riding from Lost Lake. I see a bear cross the trail in front of us. I stop and my wife pulls up also. She says that is a big dog. When I told her it was a bear she got a bit excited but we continued our ride, in a different direction. |
| Great walks to take | Trails to Lost Lake and around lake. Village stroll on a nice day |
| My favorite mountain biking trails | As a beginner biker I like the trails around Lost Lake, some of the new trails between the Lake and the Village that climb up the hills between the two, out toward the Nickolas Golf Course and the ride from Meadow Park to Alta Lake and back. |
| Places to work out | Meadow Park Sports Centre or downstairs in Glacier Lodge(limited equipment) |
| Top three must see/must do attractions | Free mountain ski tours based on skier ability(AM/PM on each mountain) First Trax Breakfast and ski in early AM, Zip Trek(not for faint of heart) add a fourth which would be the gondola between the two mountains. It is breath taking. |
