Can anyone find Le Glove? (That's French for The Glove) You could win a FREE Whistler Blackcomb Season Pass

Thanks everyone for a fantastic finish to the 2009 season. Summer Glacier season ended on July 26th with some very cool features added even before the last day. Camps including Camp of Champions and Momentum stepped it up this year with some great jump and jib features.

The two late spring parks on Whistler Mountain kept skiers and riders busy while the sun warmed up Whistler for one of the hottest seasons in recent history. Voleurz and Sandbox sessioned on the huge Emerald jump built by Anto Orts and Alex Iskat. Check out their teasers and official releases soon. Sandbox: Shine ON, Voleurz: Outdoor Graduation.

Thanks to the Grenade Games 5 crew for bringing their talent and skills to Whistler during the TELUS World Ski and Snowboard Festival in late April which turned out to be an epic event. A huge thanks to James Sayers and all the Terrain Park Rangers for building some of the best parks we’ve ever witnessed at Whistler Blackcomb.

Look for some exciting features as we get prepped for the Olympic year in Whistler. The Nintendo Parks on Whistler and Blackcomb will be ready. Remember, your lift ticket includes unlimited rides on the PEAK 2 PEAK Gondola which connects you directly to both Emerald and Catskinner parks; “PARK 2 PARK”.

Enjoy your summer and keep fit for the new season.

Hello there all you loyal park riders. Thanks to Lucas Oulette, Kevin Charles Anderson, Brett Nakamoto, and a Bean for whipping up an impressive park for everyone to enjoy here late in the season. There was only 2 days to create it, which makes it almost mind boggling. We realize that most park riders are unfamiliar with our new location, but finding it is half the fun. Treat it like a scavenger hunt, if you’re don’t really know this part of Whistler Mountain. It is right at the top of the Upper Dave Murray Downhill Course (Red Chair Zone). That’s all were going to tell you.

The Park currently consists of 14 jibs and a gorgeous 35 foot booter. We still have a few tricks up our sleeves, so keep your eyes peeled!

Hello all you inquisitive skiers and riders out there, finally, here is your Parks Report
What an insane couple weeks we've just had. Tons of powder, mad beanin, and perfect blue bird park days. What a great time to be up on the mountains. More sun in our forecast for this week to come as well.

Whistler
The upper jib-zone at the top of Emerald Chair is back in full effect. Up there we've got a Barrel bonk, 1 real low skate style flat bar, big down box and a skinnier down ledge and butter jib roller to finish it off. The Quarter, Log Stall is back up after the Chute jump (gap like last year – photos to come). Chipmunk has a new jump in the Medium line, along with a QP and Battleship rail at the end of the line. Bobcat still has all the little extras left over from the Slopestyle as well.
