Whistler Introduces Family Certified “Wonder Route”
If you have little ones in your ski crew you might be interested in Whistler Blackcomb’s new “Family Certified Route” which they recommend to skiers and snowboarders of all ability levels:
“If you’re three feet tall, the wonder of Whistler Blackcomb is supersized. Take your folks on a tour of the kid-only secret places, where wonder lives large. After all, we were all kids once.”
Pretty clever to have some on-hill destination for kids to look forward to and easy paths linked together for them to ski there. While not everyone will be a fan of castles and tree forts on ski slopes, those with munchkins in tow might find it awesome:
