VANCOUVER 2018 MEDIA KIT OTHER ADVERTISING OPPORTUNITIES WHERE WHISTLER WHISTLER 2017 VOLUME 18 Where Whistler covers everything travellers need to know during their visit, from restaurants, stores and spas to art galleries, nightclubs and outdoor adventures. The digest size is ideal for tucking into a purse or pocket before a day of exploring everything that Whistler, Squamish and Pemberton have to offer. Even beginners can handle white water rapids on the Elaho River Explore nature and the backcountry on an ATV THE GREAT Outdoors Fast facts Canoeing, horseback riding, skydiving and more or all three—adventure awaits 10 With the right vehicle, Whistler’s scenic back- country trails are a breeze. Take the high road and channel local pioneer spirit with one of Adven- tures on Horseback’s (page XX) amiable equines. Riders are welcome to set their own pace, whether it’s trotting through the Pacific temperate rainfor- est or galloping through an open meadow. Gaze up at the awe-inspiring Mount Currie, 2,591 m (8,501 ft) above, or saddle up with Copper Cayuse Outfitters (page XX) and dig into Canadian gold mining history on a multi-day Li-lik-hel Mine Expedition. For modern-day explorers, Whistler ATV (page XX) offers a high-octane way to con- quer the wild terrain. First-timers roar through a labyrinth of forest trails, while advanced riders rev their engines up to a lookout point 1,524 m (5,000 ft) above sea level for a spectacular photo-op of the Coast Mountains range. It’s the perfect excuse to pack a selfie stick. Adrenaline junkies and bucket-list warriors who dream of soaring through the air have come to the right place. Start at the top with Whistler Skydiving (page XX), where a tandem jump from 3,200 m (10,500 ft) with an instructor leaves adventurers free to enjoy the unobstructed view of crystal-blue lakes, lush greenery and snow-capped mountains below—once the parachute interrupts the thrilling 45- second free fall, that is. For those who prefer bridges to airplanes, there’s Whistler Bungee (page XX). Daredevils of all ages and abilities can practise their superhero poses as they plummet 50 m (160 ft) from a pedestrian bridge over the glacier-fed Cheakamus River. Widely considered one of the most extreme activities in Whistler, it’s the perfect way to go big before you go home. PHOTOS (FROM L TO R): COURTESY SUNWOLF. BY MIKE CRANE COURTESY TOURISM WHISTLER.
