Whistler Blackcomb is North America's largest ski resort, comprised of two mountains (Whistler Mountain and Blackcomb Mountain) located in British Columbia, Canada. The resort was acquired by Vail Resorts in 2016. The ski school operates under the Whistler Blackcomb Ski School brand with specialized divisions like Extremely Canadian (focused on steeps and terrain instruction). The resort has terrain rated from level 1 to level 6, with blue runs and black runs (ungroomed). Facilities include the Peak to Peak Gondola connecting the two mountains, Creekside Gondola, and various chairlifts including Peak Chair. The resort employs thousands of seasonal workers during winter months. Snow Hosts provide free guided tours daily meeting at light boards at either end of Peak to Peak at 11:00-11:15 AM.
