Whistler, BC - The #BCAdventureProject
In 2010, the world was introduced to the natural beauty inherent to British Columbia. The cascading slopes of Whistler Blackcomb played host to a variety of Olympic events and continue to attract visitors from across the globe.
Resting just 125 kms north of Vancouver, Whistler is every alpine enthusiasts dream. The two full mountain ranges provide an unparalleled stretch of skiable terrain and a bevy of other outlets for your next outdoor adventure.
The Mountain
Whistler Blackcomb is the largest ski resort in North America. This means that we could spend an entire season on the slopes and still not have them conquered. The endless terrain is serviced by 37 lifts that carry you up the mountains and into the sky. The twin summits are connected by the majestic Peak2Peak Gondola. The view from up there showcases the majesty of the entire area.
The Apres
The après-ski is a culture unto its own in the Whistler village. When the sun goes down, the village comes alive. The locals offer an array of culinary options, and an ambiance to host a broad spectrum of tastes. Sometimes, we feel like cozying up to a warm fire to relive the magic of the day, and other times, we feel like paying homage to Bacchus on the dance floor in one of the village’s electric nightclubs.
Beyond the Boots
Even if skiing isn’t your thing, Whistler is still the place to get your adrenaline fix. Whistler offers everything from snowmobiling to zip lining. We all remember Jon Montgomery’s celebratory pitcher at the base of the skeleton track, otherwise known as the most Canadian moment ever. Having the chance to slide down this terrifying gauntlet gave us a new appreciation for this moment, and the chance to feel like a champion for the day.
The #BCAdventureProject is fueled by Vancouver video production company Moves Media and powered by the following partners:
Whistler Blackcomb – North Americas Largest Ski Resort
Tourism Whistler – Stay longer and save more with Stay & Ski Packages
Comor Sports – BC’s best ski, snowboard, and bike shops
SnowBus – Love the Ride
Follow @movesmedia on Instagram for updates on their next #BCAdventureProject adventure.

Trail Preview | New Dirt Merchant | Whistler Bike Park, Canada
New Dirt Merchant in the Whistler Bike Park is the best jump trail I have ever ridden.
For this video, no one better than Big Pete (Peter Matthews), one of the men behind this project.
Get your bike ready, the new Dirt Merchant will open this coming weekend. You all have been waiting for a while, but it’s now happening. Longer, bigger, better.
2 large drops, a massive hip, more step ups, some step down, some unreal berms. That’s all the Whistler Bike Park was missing. The flow is unreal.
Check out on Trail Fork where is this trail:
Watch out, it is now a Pro Line.
Do not ride the trail if it says “closed”. For your safety, the one of others and because you will loose your pass.

Blue Velvet // Whistler Mountain Bike Park
Everything's bigger on Blue Velvet. One of my favourite trails at Whistler Bike Park is this sweet blue flow trail up in the Garbanzo Zone. It gives you a taste of everything you'd hope to ride while in BC like fast flowy berms, jumps, rock faces and woodwork, all without delving into black diamond territory. Make sure to check it out while you're there!
