(4545 Blackcomb Way; adult/youth/child $49/42/25; 10am-4:45pm)
Linking the Whistler-
Blackcomb sister mountains for the first time when it opened in 2009, the resort's
mammoth 4.4km Peak 2 Peak Gondola takes 11 breathtaking minutes to shuttle wide-
eyed powder hogs between the two high alpine areas, so you can hit the slopes on both
mountains in the same day. In summer, it's one of the region's most popular sightseeing
attractions.

This handsome wood-beamed facility showcases two quite different First Nations
groups - one coastal and one interior. Take a tour for the vital context behind the exhib-
its, which include four newly carved totem poles and a new upstairs gallery that fea-
tures a 1200-year-old ceremonial bowl. Ask about the summer barbecue dinners ($58)
or nip into the downstairs cafe for delicious venison chili with traditional bannock.
