Slope information Whistler-Blackcomb - Whistler-Blackcomb

The ski resort of Whistler-Black Comb is spread over two mountain giants: Mount Whistler and Black Comb Mountain.

The peak-to-peak gondola brings you from Whistler to Black Comb (and vice-versa) without having to take a ski-bus. Nearly all stats sound unbelievable: the collection of lifts offers a joint capacity of 65,507 skiers per hour; the ski area has three separate glaciers - more than 250km of prepared ski slopes - The longest descent is almost 11km long, the typically Canadian Heliskiing (dropped via helicopter in a off-piste area), and Catskiing (a track bully / track preparation machine drops you at a location where people have not yet gone skiing/boarding that day).
