55-100 cm forecasted for this week! Looks like Whistler is in store for another amazing weekend!

Whistler Blackcomb, BC

Whistler Blackcomb is 100 percent open, and is one of the few resorts on this continent consistently getting snow.

Located in the world’s most renowned ski destinations, each resort offers distinctive, one-of-a-kind adventures and experiences enriched with Four Seasons warm hospitality and intuitive service. And now, all are featuring an exceptional selection of winter vacation packages making the conditions absolutely ideal for planning a wonderful winter escape.

Ideal for families or groups of friends, residence rentals promise an unforgettable vacation, combining the privacy and independence of a self-contained home (including kitchen and laundry) with total access to Four Seasons services and amenities.

“Renting a Private Residence is a great alternative to booking multiple guest rooms or suites,” says Todd Nishimura, Four Seasons Marketing Manager - Residential. “Our private residence rentals include multiple bedrooms and a greater amount of space. Because everyone is under the same roof, there’s a greater feeling of intimacy and focus with the people who are important to you.”

Fifty Two 80 Bistro

BY MIA STAINSBY, VANCOUVER SUN

VANCOUVER -- When I reviewed Fifty Two 80 Bistro in the Four Seasons Resort Hotel in Whistler six years ago, it shone in its newness. It flexed its youthful muscle and disarmed me.

I got carried away, with good reason, and used adjectives such as gorgeous, artful and sublime in describing the food.

There’ve been a couple of changing of the guards in the kitchen since Jason McLeod revved up that kitchen. Just before the Olympics this year, the menu shifted its target to a more carnivorous market and pitched itself as a modern steak house.
