More Gondola shots

The trip up Whistler Mnt. was in a smaller gondola, and this shot shows 2 gondolas, one overlapping another. Both are heavily used by the mountain bikers who are just all over the mountain. They shove 3 bikers with their bikes into each of the smaller trams, or 4 bikes on a bike rack followed by the 4 bikers in an open gondola.


The whiskey jacks are all over the place - taking food right from your hand!!!



Jason and Miki enjoying the trip!



This was taken through a scratched up plastic window, but still gives you an idea of the multi coloured plant life on the slopes. Soon this will all be under many feet of snow...!

Whistler Gondola!

This Peak to Peak tram is the longest, highest one of its kind in the world - 1475 feet in the air....wee haa!!!!! First you take the gondola to the top of Whistler Mnt, then this tram from the top of Whistler to the top of Blackcomb Mnt. The trip one way is about an hour all told.

The trip from Whistler to Blackcomb is spectacular - over a river valley, and the trams are supported by only 4 towers!!!

Once you are at the top, the views of the Village and valley are amazing!

There is an infinity deck off the lodge, that takes advantage of the fabulous views.

We enoyed the gondolas and had the ride down all to ourselves!
