New gondola at Whistler-Blackcomb takes ski lifts to new heights

The Seattle Times loves me!

From the article:

Whistler regulars see early- (and late-) season advantages offered by Peak 2 Peak. Says Seattle's Trent Mitchell, 33, an avid snowboarder who makes regular pilgrimages northward, "It will help the most on days where the snow level is high and you can only ride the top half of each mountain. It's always taken forever to go down to the base of one mountain and then back up to where the snow is on the other one. This will be awesome on days when the snow level is above 4,000 feet!"
