For The Kids- Whistler Mountain -
Feb 8, 2008 - 5:58:56 PM
If you're looking for skiiing nearly 365 days a year, then Whistler-Blackcomb is the place to go. Located less than two hours from Vancouver, British Columbia, Whistler will be the site of the 2010 Winter Olympics. It has over eight thousand acres of territory, including over two hundred ski trails, and receives thirty feet of snow per year, on average. And, since the peak of Whistler Mountain has year-round snow, a trip in June doesn't mean leaving the skis behind.
