Yo
I'm heading out in February, and was wondering what everyone recommended. Search bar failed me on this. ie:

Best runs
Lifts and runs that I don't want to be stuck on
What Shops
What Restaurants
Places to chill

Any help would be sweet!

K+++ For Help

Yo im headin out the 21 to 25 when are u

anyway in my opinion there is so much terrain in whistler it caters to everything you want to do on a pow day i reccomend most anything off of harmony or solar coaster and crystal chair on a sunny day head up to the glacier and do stuff like the colouir extreme and pakalolo as well as the blackomb glacier bowls on a park day i prefer the whistler park over the blackomb one but thats me and there both awesome parks i just like the one on whis to eat you cant go wrong with the GLC (garibaldi lift company) longhorns, zogs, merlins or basically any place the foods really good there as opposed to other resorts

orange chair area.

garibaldi lift company is my favourite resaraunt ever.

there also tends to be lots of famous people at whistler so stay on the lookout.

Thanks Guys!
Flying out on the 19th, so hopefully shredding on the 20th if all goes to plan.
I'll be taking park skis with me, reckon hiring some pow pow skis would be easy?

Check the whistler/Vancouver regional forums for more advice from locals.  Hit the crystal chair, 7th heaven, couloir extreme (steepest run on either mountain), on pow days.  There's TONS more too, but those are some simple recommendations, and I'm not exactly in the know either.

I'll argue this and say that excitation and exhilaration are both way steeper than any part of couloir extreme.   

Definetley check out excitation and exhilaration while youre up there.

-7th heaven is amazing. and worth hiking a run
-earls, great food and got free dessert cause it took 30 min

don't go to creekside gondola at like 7:30 in the morning on a saturday during winter break. 45 minute line, at least 1000 people waiting in line. Blackcomb is usually less crowded in my experiences, but i've only been there a few times. pretty much anywhere you can find good terrain. have fun, whistler is completely dope
