This concerned me greatly as I had wrongly assumed, with this being on offer to the public, that there would be considerably more safety protocols in place. Concerned and unwilling to risk it for a 1 minute thrill ride, I decided to cancel within less than 24 hours after booking - well within their at least 24 hours before event date cancellation policy for a full refund. (I had scheduled for June 2026). However, I could find no way to cancel using the ticket information/profile. Despite reaching out to them multiple times via email since February regarding the cancellation, to date I have received no response and they have not cancelled as requested. Forced to do a chargeback against them. Disappointing.

The staff were all amazing. Super friendly and incredibly helpful (which we definitely appreciated, as our family required more than a few clues along the way). The rooms themselves are intense and hands-on...making you think outside the box, while testing your problem-solving skills (and your family dynamics haha). This one definitely requires dexterity and coordination (with many puzzles needing physical interaction and two or more people working together at the same time). We managed to escape with just 4 minutes to spare and felt like champs. Would do it all over again in a heartbeat. A must do in Whistler!

You start by waiting in line to purchase tickets to slide down. The is the first line, and depending on what time of day and how busy it is, I can take 20-minutes or so to purchase your tickets. Once you get your tickets, then you have to get in line to get a tube. So, it depends if someone sliding down has used up all their time, to determine if they'll return their tube back to the line. More on this below. Waiting the line to get a tube can take another 20-minutes or so. Once you get a tube, you can drag it up the hill to the line to slide down. At the base of the hill, their are attendants that write the time on your ticket. And, basically you have 60 minutes to slide once you've started. There's a conveyor that takes you up to the top and it actually goes kind of quickly once you've made it to that line. The sliding down is fun, and if you're with kids, they will love it. Now you know how it works, you'll have to decide if you want to endure the line, but it was kind of tolerable. Although I'd probably not do it again, now that I have. If you're not skiing, this is a good thing to do to experience the gondola ride up and the mountain. Also there's a tobogganing option in Olympic Park where they did the x-country skiing and stuff for the Winter Olympics. That is cheaper, less daring and about 20-minute drive from the Village.

I'm sure this has a lot to do with timing, but we spent a lot of the time waiting.

If I had kids or something, who couldn't ski or snowboard, I'd see coming here would make sense. Would I go for my own pleasure again? Nah I'll stick to snowboarding.

The trail takes you to a beautiful and picturesque suspension bridge across the Cheakakmus river and ends at the Whistler Train Wreck where an accident pulled several cars off the tracks and they were pulled into the woods to quickly clear the trails - they have become curious pieces of art with graffiti artists adding to the designs over the years!

The trail itself is one of the prettiest and most rewarding hikes I have ever been on. But the crazy part of this trail is the location. Once a year there is a mountain bike festival called Crankworx that finishes its multi location festival in Whistler. This festival is the largest mountain bike festival in the world. During the Canadian Downhill race, all sorts of fans travel up this trail and stand along the fence next to what is called Hecklers Rock. I originally heard about this event as my friend and I were getting ready to leave the event and go home. As we spent most of our day walking around the resorts looking for saviors and getting stuck among the millions of tourists I felt that I hadn't really experienced Whistler the way I should have. I was hoping for something different than just walking through a town and dragged my feet as we headed back when I heard a massive cheer. We had just finished watching the Redbull Joyride and I thought that would have been the last event. As we approached an event employee I asked them what the chanting in the hills was all about. Then the employee was like "It's the Canadian Downhill!!!". Apparently, this is the locals event and complete chaos goes on when the tourists leave. At this point, I was determined that the chanting in the hills would be the experience that I was hoping fo find. So I asked the employee where the best place to watch the event was and they asked me if I wanted a technical view or just chaos. I don't know what it is, but when a Canadian or Australian ask me if I want chaos I get can't help but get all fired up and idiotic. So I asked what the chaos was all about. The employee explained that a bunch of Canadian, Australian, and Brittish men and women bring up a bunch of beverages and take their shirts off on the Hecklers Rock. We assumed that this was an exaggeration and headed up to see what it was all about. As we walked up we ran into some friendly Australlian's who had been working there on Visas. We shared some stories and then decided to walk up the trail with them. The trial was a very intense incline in elevation, so the view of Whistler got real pretty real quick. As we crossed some bike bridges and switchback we were walking along the downhill race. There were plenty of people ringing cowbells and yelling for their favorite racers as we walked by. Once we walked to the top of the rock my friend and I looked at each other and made sure we wanted to be around a bunch of crazy drunks when we were sober and went for it. We took our shirts off and sure enough, there was a massive crowd of obnoxious drunks. Normally this would annoy me, but they were foreign drunks, so it seemed more majestic than annoying. As we were watching the event we suddenly started to really crave a beer, but alas could not as we were supposed to be on the road. Even sober this was just a blast. There were older, younger, men and woman all standing around shirtless watching the race, and if anyone showed up with a shirt on, they got heckled and cussed at until they ran off or took off their shirt. If you are traveling to this location and have kids, you really should not bring them here or take the chair lift as people were getting pummeled with beer cans and there were ladies that flashed the crowd. I believe this event has been shut down since but might open back up if they can monitor it better. Overall it is the best location to watch the downhill or view Whistler from the peak.

Located about two hours north of the city, the drive itself is stunning, with breathtaking views of the coastline and surrounding mountains. While we had a rental car, we opted for a comfy charter bus for the ride, we're Texans and typically don't know how to drive in the snow. We left Vancouver's lush, green landscape only to enter into a white, wonderland once entering Whistler. We were also lucky to get mostly sunshine even though it was cloudy and snowing days before we came. We were dropped off at Whistler Village, which is the main hub of the town. Whistler is home to North America's largest ski resort. While we didn't hit the slopes this time, we did partake in some winter activities and did a little tubing at one of their tube parks. Whether you're into skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing, or anything else involving snow -- Whistler has it all. One of the highlights of the day was the sightseeing gondola package. It gave us access to ride up both Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains, including the iconic Peak 2 Peak Gondola (separate review). The views were unreal and had panoramic views of snow covered peaks everywhere you look. We made a pit stop at the Umbrella Bar atop Whistler Mountain for some cocktails with 360-degree views. Afterward, we crossed over to Blackcomb Mountain and eventually made our way back down to the Village, where we grabbed a bite and soaked in the après-ski scene. Next time, I would dedicate a whole trip to this area alone because there is so much to do out here. I will be back.

If you've been to the ski resort village at Palisades Tahoe in California (formerly known as Squaw Valley), Whistler is a bigger version of that. In fact, Whistler is the largest ski resort in North America, it was the site of the 2010 Winter Olympics while Palisades Tahoe was the site for the 1960 Winter Olympics. We wanted to see the Olympic Rings and since we did not venture to the top of the mountain we headed over to the Olympic Town Plaza on Village North and soaked up some of the glory of the 2010 Winter Olympic Games instead. シ While Canada won the most gold medals USA won the most total medals. Lots of shops and dining places. We had crepes at Hot Buns Bakery. We wanted to stay till evening to see the village lights but, unfortunately, we had to return the rental car (w/ snow tires) in Vancouver before evening. I've only seen the beautiful colored lights in pictures. Reserve early for snowmobiles if you're planning to do this activity. Review #3601
