This is by far the best video I have seen on Whisteler/Blackcomb mountains. Thanks for making it all in one part. The editing and the info are great. Your knowledge of these mountains is insane.

Norm, this is an absolutely brilliant piece of work. My wife & I are off on our first international snowboard trip in 7 years to WB in late Feb24. First time for both of us. So I’m starting my mountain recon intell now to familiarise as much as possible and this is just gold watching this. Great job mate and good karma for scoring such a brilliant Bluebird day!!!! Cheers & thx.

Thank-you very much. Head straight to harmony Chair first up. If there is fresh snow, go down the bowl, if not go down the ridge. When it gets busy, ski s huge long run to the bottom of Gonzo and stay there until the lines die around lunch.

I agree, Harmony Ridge is my favorite run at WB. Easy to miss but worth it.

Nice video Norm! Good facts. Didn't know about the 10 passenger gondola. This is January? Looks great!

This video starts with a time lapse drive up the highway to the mountain. A great look at the completely excellent road. It was great before the Olympics but they spent billions on it anyway. Now it is super easy to drive with wide shoulders and barriers everywhere.

Such an awesome video I'm off there again for the 3rd time next week. I love Whistler and the Peak 2 Peak gondola. I prefer to eat at the Merlin Bar in Blackcomb, with great nachos and live bands.

There’s no one there! We were there last weekend and it most certainly did not look like this. Gondola line at Creekside was out to the parking garage pre opening :)

great video!! i just got back from banff and the big3 lake louise and sunshine village, they were so much fun, whats whistler like is it better to ski???
@ontheroadwithnorm2024 Жыл бұрын
I like Whistler better but it is a coastal mountain. It is low altitude compared to the interior. There is always lighter snow in Sunshine, a great mountain.

hey Norm ... great video tour of WB! Well done ... just curious about what you used to capture it ... GoPro won a helmet mount?
@ontheroadwithnorm2024 Жыл бұрын
I use a GoPro 9 and 10 on a helmet mount. The stabilization after the 9 model is incredible. Makes all other GoPro obsolete.

Can I ask what this was shot on? Go pro? Sony? Model? Thanks.

Thank-you Cameron, please help the channel with a subscribe! I shoot on a Gopro 9 and 10. anything earlier does not have the unbelievable digital stabilization. No need for a gyro like the old days. The 10 has horizon lock which is great for outdoor sports.

Lovely video! Will tne Creekside Gondolas be generally less crowded? Thinking of staying at Creekside VS Whistler village
@ontheroadwithnorm2024 Жыл бұрын
They are the same because most of the drive-ups park at the much shorter quicker Creekside. Stay at the village. There is about 50 restaurant options and every fancy shop[ you can think of. The village is a wonderful place for a walk and did I mention the shopping is world class? Thanks for leaving a comment.

Good video, but I would suggest to break it down into 10-12 mins segments and you can segregate the content and get more viewers.
