Pictures: Whistler Blackcomb Peak2Peak Gondola
We were treated to a great dinner high atop Whistler's peak, but in order
for us to get there we were going to have to take the new PEAK 2 PEAK
GONDOLA!! Now, a few of the pics included are from the smaller
gondola's we had to take up Blackcomb to get to the PEAK 2 PEAK.
The views from the PEAK 2 PEAK were utterly fantastic!!!
Here's an excerpt from the website...http://ww1.whistlerblackcomb.com/p2pg/
