The twin peaks of Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains combine to form the largest ski resort in North America. Extremists can explore the 7,000 acres of varied terrain via heli- or cat-ski adventures while beginnres can stick to the pistes with expert guides. In the summer, British Columbia is a hidden gem for families. Soar above the forest floor and ancient pines with Ziptrek Ecotours. In addition to thrills, you'll also take home a deeper knowledge of the environment on excursions like an ecology tour that visits an active bear den.
