We head North, as our Hosts take us off to Whistler for the day, with a scheduled overnight stay in the Town. In Winter, Whistler is home to one of the largest ski resorts in North America. It was the venue for the 2010 Winter Olympics and is situated at the foot of the Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains. While in Summer it is the mountain biking and hiking destination of choice.
We spend the day walking around Whistler checking out the various shops and restaurants, as well as watching the down-hill mountain bikers coming off Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains. They catch the ski lift to the top of the respective mountains, and then cycle down the various routes on offer (depending on their downhill riding capabilities and skills).
Tomorrow we will take the cable-way up to the top of the two mountains.
