The opening of Blackcomb Mountain has signalled the start of a winter of milestone anniversaries at North America’s largest mountain resort, including Whistler Mountain’s 60th season. To celebrate, the resort is officially launching Wonder Routes – a collection of seven self-guided tours designed to showcase the very best of both mountains.

Early openings as snow falls at Vail Resorts’ Northern Hemisphere resorts
Last week, snow fell across all regions of Vail Resorts’ Northern Hemisphere resort operations, bringing with it the start to winter and the 2024/25 ski season.
Nowhere was this more exciting than at Whistler Blackcomb, where nearly 90 inches of snow (228cm) has fallen since 1 November, leading to an early opening on 21 November.
