Trainwreck hike and Rainbow Beach — Whistler magic at its finest.
Old boxcars, riverside trails, hidden beaches... and the sweetest surprise: a mama bear and her two cubs!
Nature always has the best stories.

Saying goodbye to students is always bittersweet, Noah, our lumberjack and backcountry tour guide is heading back to Switzerland. Wishing him safe travels and hoping our paths cross again!

An unforgettable night on the ice! ❄️ For many of our students and teachers, it was their first time playing hockey—challenging but SO much fun! 🏒🔥 Learning a new sport together made for an amazing experience, full of laughter, teamwork, and a few slippery moments! 😆

Big thanks to everyone who joined—what sport should we try next? 🤔 Let us know in the comments! ⬇️

The is here, and we’re experiencing it all! From roaring **M18 fighter jets** soaring over our classroom to incredible concerts and unforgettable moments—what an unbelievable experience!

Another farewell to Rinzo who is heading back home with unforgettable memories, and new friendships we will miss you! 🌎! 📚⛷️🏂

Whistler Blackcomb is set to open on November 22 for the 2024-25 winter season, conditions permitting. Vail Resorts recently announced some exciting updates, including a new Jersey Cream chairlift on Blackcomb, which will enhance capacity and speed in the Glacier Creek Zone. The chairlift, replacing the old one removed after last season, is on track to be ready by winter.

This season also marks the arrival of the Invictus Games in February 2025, featuring winter sports on the mountain for the first time. Additionally, Vail is rolling out mobile pass technology via the My Epic app, allowing guests to skip the ticket window and go hands-free on the slopes. While physical passes will still be available this season, the mobile option will streamline the experience.

Pass prices will increase after September 2, so now is the time to secure the best rates. After last year’s challenging season, there’s hope for better conditions and a strong comeback in visitor numbers.

🏞️ Today, we took a journey through history and gained insight into the lives and dreams of those who shaped Whistler. Visiting the Whistler Museum was an inspiring experience for us all! 🌲
