We fell in love with Whistler 15 years ago and keep coming back for the excellent variety of skiing and the variety in the village. We highly recommend the resort in the heart of winter. The Telus festival, in April, used to be a highlight. However, the resort has become increasingly stingy. I can understand the weather dependent activities closing as spring starts to arrive. Good-bye snowmobiling, dog sledding and outdoor ice skating. Inexplicably, the resort now chooses to drop other popular activities: fresh tracks breakfast, food choices in the main eating areas, the number of eating areas on the mountain; these are not weather dependent. This starts a vicious cycle of late season visitors enjoying a less than world class experience. Come in February and March. Take your spring break somewhere that is rolling out the red carpet instead of shuttering its doors.
