Spearhead Traverse from Blackcomb to Whistler (~38km with 1900m Elev. Gain)
We will meet early Friday morning at Whistler and park at the resort, purchase backcountry lift tickets, ride the lift up Blackcomb, and then traverse along the well-known route to Whistler. We expect to enjoy the views for 2-3 days depending on conditions and pace.
