Whistler Blackcomb T-Shirt

Whistler Mountain opened in 1966, developed with an eye toward hosting the Winter Olympics — a goal that took 44 years to realize. Blackcomb followed in 1980, and the two mountains operated as fierce competitors for two decades before merging under a single operator in 1997. The 2010 Winter Olympics put Whistler on the global stage, with alpine events on Dave Murray Downhill and freestyle events in the Creekside zone. Vail Resorts acquired Whistler Blackcomb in 2016, bringing it into the Epic Pass network and solidifying its place as the premier ski destination in western Canada.

The terrain spans everything from long, groomed cruisers on Whistler's mid-mountain to the steep chutes and alpine bowls of Blackcomb's Spanky's Ladder and the Blackcomb Glacier. Harmony Bowl, Symphony Amphitheatre, and the Peak Chair zone on Whistler offer above-treeline skiing that catches coastal storms rolling off the Pacific. The village at the base — purpose-built, pedestrian-only, and packed with restaurants and bars — sits at the junction of both mountains and functions as one of the best base areas in skiing. Mtns Co carries Whistler Blackcomb gear because this is the mountain that sets the standard for everything else.
