It took a week, but the girls took out the sofa bed!

Creekside day
We skied over to the Creekside area today. Creekside was the original Whistler base so it’s the oldest area of Whistler. Both the men’s and women’s downhill will finish down at the base area of Creekside.
Ate lunch at Dusty’s. A nice casual place – probably the best lunch spot we’ve found to date.
Blackcomb day
Greta, Kerstin and I headed over to Blackcomb today. Skied all over, tried to get to the glacier again but the T-bar had already stopped. Had lunch at Christine’s and had the salad+salmon combo – probably the best value meal on the mountain at C$11 before a 20% discount for ski pass holders. Service could be a lot snappier though.
Blackcomb Glacier
Kim and I took a guided tour on Blackcomb mountain and the host took us to the Blackcomb Glacier. It’s a short hike but the snow and the skiing was excellent.
Unfortunately I left the memory card for the camera at home but there are some photos of the area here. Hopefully we’ll get there again soon and I’ll take some photos then.
Mountain tour pics
Did a free mountain tour today and took some panoramas of Whistler.
