Our favourite take-out is Pasta Lapino for their home made lasagne . Pasta Lapino is located downstairs from our unit around the corner from Kentucky Fried Chicken in the IGA complex. Since it is easy to get disoriented, turn right when you leave our condo, walk to the end of the hall, take the stair to ground level and turn right. Walk towards the next building and under their circular stair, past Duff’s Burrito and Crepe Montagne towards the end of the walkway. Dine at Pasta Lapino and your entree will include a soup, they have limited seating, cozy but simple!

Sightseeing
Even if you are not a skier, get on this gondola for amazing panoramic views of the Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. The ride offers breathtaking views connecting the two iconic mountains (Whistler Mountain and Blackcomb Mountain) spanning 4km. The gondola runs pretty much year-round with only a short hiatus in the fall for a week or two.
In the summers your ticket will take you up to the Cloudraker Skybridge, a breathtaking suspension bridge that spans 130 meters 426 feet out from Whistler Peak crossing the massive Whistler Bowl. There is also the Raven’s Eye Cliff Walk that extends from the West Ridge dangling 12.5 meters (41 feet) over Whistler Bowl.

Whistler Mountain Fresh Tracks
When snowboarding in Whistler, be sure to pay the extra money to be first on the hill! Fresh Tracks gets you first up the gondola where you enjoy a buffet breakfast before the ski hill opens. You then have the chance to ride the slopes before everyone else. It’s a great way to stay ahead of the crowd at least for a few runs in the morning. When doing Fresh Tracks, makes sure to arrive early so you can be in the first gondola. First Tracks is open to the first 650 people and if you are first up you won’t have to stand in line for breakfast.

How to dress for Winter in Whistler
In Canada, we embrace the cold. If you dress properly, you can have a really comfortable time in Whistler. Dress in layers and be sure to have a good base layer of clothing. You can walk around in your snow pants all day if you want, snow pants and hats are completely acceptable in Whistler. ! In the winter, pack your warmest clothes possible, bundle up and get outside. If you pack for it you will love Whistler even in the winter. Wear proper footwear and cozy jackets with hats and mittens and you’ll be good to go!
