One year ago, in Whistler Canada, the Whistler Olympics took place. These Winter Olympics helped Whistler to catch the attention of many potential visitors. These days, Whistler is still famous for winter sports such as downhill skiing at the Whistler Mountain Ski Club, snowboarding, snowmobiling, and even hockey. Whistler has been working hard to keep its visitors interest and has been improving its sports, food, and shopping venues to draw people back again and again.

Whistler had improved the Sea to Sky highway before the winter games started, and now visitors can enjoy a faster and safer trip from Vancouver to Whistler. They have also improved their snow-making capabilities and now there will earlier snow coverage than ever before. Visitors can come to enjoy downhill skiing earlier in the season and stay later than in many other ski resorts. Whistler is also re-stocking their rental supplies with high-performance skis, beginning skis, snowboards, and even boots so they will be ready to accommodate many visitors. Even the restaurants and snack kiosks will be serving more types of food that will appeal to more people, including Latin American, Mediterranean, and Middle Eastern cuisines. Stores in the area are stocking more outer gear and some new stores will be opening up so visitors will have several more choices for all their skiing supplies.

Visiting Whistler Canada is an experience simply because they were home to the Whistler Olympics. Visiting a place where the 2010 Winter Olympics took place and participating in some of those Olympic sports is a perfect way to spend a winter vacation. Visitors who visit the Roundhouse Lodge can see its latest addition, the Olympic Legacy Display. This display features pictures and stories highlighting some of the great moments in the Winter Olympics on Whistler Mountain. Plan your trip to Whistler today and visit a part of Winter Olympic history.
