We’re a group of Whistler-lovers, who have made this resort our home and want to share with you why we made that decision. The team is made up of people from all over the world, each with their own perspective on what makes these mountains their special place. We’ve gone through the posts of 2021 and pulled out five of the most-read and / or commented on blogs from over the year.
1. Why Whistler? Video Series
This 10-part video series asked a variety of Whistler locals the question – Why Whistler? It’s interesting to hear the different stories of how people came to Whistler, what made them stay, and what it is about Whistler that made it the place they want to call home. We started in the winter season of 2020/21, and then in the summer of 2021.
2. The Essentials: 5 Whistler Summer Must-Do Adventures
In this listicle post, our Insider, Feet Banks, manages to weave in a Harry Potter reference in the introduction. We don’t know if it was this touch of wizardry that made this one of the most popular posts of the year, or the simple fact that you all wanted some mountain adventures this summer!
3. 15 Things to Do in the Fall
We used to have this thing called a shoulder season when the resort slowed down between the summer and winter, but given that Whistler is an all-year-round resort that really doesn’t apply.
This listicle-style post features 15 ideas of what to do in Whistler in the fall, and it’s not even an exhaustive list. Take a look and see how many of these adventures you’ve been on and which ones you’ve yet to tackle.
4. 5 Reasons to Live, Work and Play in Whistler
Whistler is a destination that people dream about visiting and for some lucky people, myself included, when we wake up, the dream doesn’t end. We get to shred pow before work, use a gondola for our morning commute, hang out with people who understand the 20 centimetre rule, learn from a passionate community of likeminded, mountain explorers and weave the magnetic pull of the mountains into our own lives, in whatever form that takes.
