Alpine
Skiing
From a magic carpet & Merlin's Castle
for kids to entertainment arcades for their parents,
Whistler & Blackcomb are broadening the range of
activities for visitors to their slopes. From the moment
you spy Merlin on the slopes, you know the Mountains have
done their homework. This friendly sorcerer is everywhere.
He appears on the slopes in a billowing gown and pointy
hat, warning skiers to slow down for the safety of kids,
and you'll see him hanging around the children's
adventure park.
