Whistler, host of the 2010 Winter Olympics, has been the # 1 rated ski resort in North America for the last 8 years in a row. Two mountains, Whistler and Blackcomb, rise up a mile out of the valley (1,609 metres/ 5,280 vertical feet) and access over 7,000 acres of prime mountain terrain - including 12 alpine bowls, three glaciers and more than 200 marked trails - via 33 lifts. The lifts have a capacity of nearly 60,000 skiers per hour. There are 18 different restaurants on the mountain. Average snowfall is over 30 feet or 9 metres per year, and the season ski lasts from November to August. When the ski season ends in Europe (mid-April), there is usually a snow base of over 3 metres (or 10 feet) in Whistler.
