Whistler is one of the top mountain 4-season
destinations in North America. If you have
already visited then you are familiar with its
pedestrian village, restaurants, outdoor
activities, bars and spas. If you have not visited
then you need to see its beauty and participate
in its culture and arts.
Whistler is the home of the Coast Salish First
Nations people. The Squamish Lil’wat Cultural
Centre and Audain Art Museum are a tribute to
their rich history and culture.
The first
commercial enterprise began in 1915 with the
Rainbow
Lodge
offering
wilderness
experiences in hiking and fishing. Whistler was
named after the whistling calls of the resident
marmots. The Whistler ski resort officially
opened in 1966. The first bid for an Olympic
destination took place in 1968 by a group of
Vancouver businessmen. Blackcomb opened
in 1980 and both mountains merged in 2000. In
2010 Whistler hosted the Winter Games and in
2020 Whistler will host the annual CAPD/ACDP
conference!
