This video is a tour around Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. I make an effort to walk you through all of the on-mountain restaurants. I take you down some of my favourite runs. It is likely I have skied here about 200 times in the last 40 years.

Friday January 27, 2023 was forecast to be sunny and I had a day off. Two hours from my driveway is the Creekside Base of Whistler Mountain. The road is called the Sea to Sky Highway 99 but we call it the Squamish 500. The road improved when we had the Olympics.
I start with a short transition to get up to the Harmony Bowl. My first full run is on Harmony Ridge. It think it is my favoritite run in the world. Fantastic views, super easy, and always groomed.
Nest up is Symphony Bowl, Peak to Peak, then Blackcomb.
I try to do a walk through all of the on mountain restaurants. First is Roundhouse on Whistler that includes Pika's and Steeps. Over on Blackcomb we walk through the Rendezvous lodge with Christines. The Peak to Peak gondola is 4 kilometers long. We ski Jersey Cream, Glacier Express, Crystal Ridge, then we walk through my favourite ski restaurant - Crystal lodge. Next up is a top to bottom Blackcomb down to Whistler Village. This is the top of the origional Whistler Village development.
Next I ride 5 kilometers up the Whistler Gondola. A quick snack at the Roundhouse then I ski Whistler top to bottom using Franz down to Creekside. I went very slow and rested many times. I am now 59 years old and not skiing exactly the way I used to. I rode 13 lifts today for a lift ticket of $215 Canadian Dollars.
This video was made from 2 hours of footage. It took hours to edit. Next I spent hours collecting and adding music to the whole thing. I sourced all of the tunes from Pixbay Music online. Pixbay has a very large selection of content for RU-vid users. We are able to download a license for each song. Making movies is a huge filing project but it's a great hobby.
