I know a day on the Mountain bikes will be on the plan but what else would you recomend while there? Traveling 1st or 2nd week of July. Thanx in advance

Golf. lots of nice courses, take the tram up to the top of Blackcomb, cant remember is that is the same tram you can take your bike up and ride down or if its another, lots of great restaurants, just hanging out in the center of town is good, a couple of ziplines and atv tours. Of course you have to travel back through Pemberton and Lillooet, incredible scenery on that road.

Hey, Just an update, Stayed at the Riverside camp site, 10 out of 10. Little pricey but it is Whistler. WiFI in camp site , Paved, Cafe and Bakery. Very nice. About a 1 km bike ride to the village, went swiming in Green lake, Rode the mountain one day, went out for a couple of drinks and supper at a couple of cool places in town. Camp site is very close (walk) to Nicolas north golfing and club house. stayed 3 nights. I want to go back and do a week on the next trip. Nice, enjoyed our time there.
