This was a highlight of our trip to Whistler. Due to the warm day and the melting glacier, our guide, Emile, took us on a unique experience that was part glacier walk, part glissade, and part mountain climbing. It was an amazing experience that we will not forget.
Visit the Whistler Blackcomb Mountain for this 2.5-hour glacier glissading (snow sliding) experience. Glacier Glissading is the thrill of sliding down glacier snow in the summer, combined with an interpretive hike of the 10,000+ year old Whistler Glacier. Don’t just see the snow in summer; slide on it!
