New High Speed Lift Provides Access to 1,000 Acres of the Most Spectacular
High Alpine Terrain Available in North America


Whistler Blackcomb has broken ground on the construction of the Piccolo Express, the resort's newest high speed detachable quad that was announced last month. The new Piccolo Express Lift on Whistler Mountain will be open for the beginning of the 2006/2007 season, will run from the bottom of Flute Bowl to the peak of Piccolo and will provide access to more than 1,000 acres of the most spectacular high alpine terrain available in North America.
With a current alpine snow base of approximately two meters or six feet, the resort is still open for skiing and riding. Beginning construction while there is such a significant amount of snow on the ground is a strategic environmental move. The snow acts as a protective layer to the ecosystem underneath, minimizing the construction footprint as much as possible.
