A must have for anyone going to whistler
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I ordered this book a few weeks before I took my family to whistler and was glad I did. There was a plethora of information in there that only somebody familiar with the whistler area would know about. I booked my vacation online at http://www.whistler.com and it was great to know what kind of activities where available before reserving them over the phone with the reservation agents (although their website is very informative also). Once there I found the printed maps from the book to be indispensable in navigating whistler's extensive valley trail system. I would have liked to see more information on all of the whistler golf courses but all-in-all this book made my first whistler vacation an experience to remember. I am definitely going back in the winter season to ski whistler.
