Some Stats

Dad was asking me the other day some questions re the size of WB and height etc. - I didn't know so looked it up and thought I may as well post it in case anyone else was interested...

Whistler Village is 675m above sea level, 126 km from Vancouver. Whistler Blackcomb is the name of the resort where we are living and includes two mountains located side by side. E.g., we live on Blackcomb mountain but can walk out our door and ski down to the base of Whistler mountain within 3 minutes.

WhistlerMountain / Blackcomb Mountain
Vertical Drop: 1,530 m / 1,609 m
Top Elevation: 2,182 metres / 2,284 metres
Skiable Terrain: 4,757 acres / 3,414 acres
