Whistler Blackcomb - Human Wonders

The other amazing thing about Whistler Blackcomb is how much capital and effort had been putting in to make this a world famous vacation spot. Building one gondola/lift line is uneasy, and building many that cover both mountains is impressive. You start your journey from the base, which in the summer transforms into a hardcore mountain bike park. Each gondola/lift line lasts 10~30 minutes, but imagine without them, it might take you a whole day and a bloody foot to just to get to the mid station. And how did the Roundhouse ever get built so we can enjoy the breathtaking view? And now the new Peak-to-Peak, supported only by two steel towers it lift you across 4.4 kilometers and 436 meters above the Fitzsimmons Creek. Whistler Blackcomb is the ironic example of how human conquers nature, but at the same time respect nature for its grand pleasures.
