Canada has a wide variety of ski terrains across the country, with the Rocky Mountains in BC and Alberta, and the Laurentian mountains in Ontario and Quebec. Whistler, in  British Columbia, with the most desirable and breathtaking locations in Canada, has been voted one of the favourite ski destinations in North America. It is a skier's and snowboarder’s heaven in winter and for this reason the Winter Olympics in 2010 will be held at Whistler Blackcomb.
Whistler Blackcomb offers skiing and snowboarding for all ability levels. Some hills are designed for experienced skiers while others are more for the beginners. Featuring more than 200 trails, Whistler skiing includes everything from tree skiing to wide-open cruising runs. Cross-country skiers can also find miles of trails to satisfy. The ski season for the Canadian resorts starts in early November and extends through to June and summer offers all sorts of additional outdoor sports.
