Ski vacations: attractions and deals
This article talks about some ski vacation discounts, but also some interesting attractions:
A spectacular new feature debuts in December at Whistler-Blackcomb in British Columbia, the Peak 2 Peak Tram. Connecting the two mountains, it will travel a world record 1.88 miles unsupported between two towers at a world record 1,427 feet above the ground. The 28-person tram is the final component in Whistler's preparation for the 2010 Winter Olympics, and for U.S. skiers it's especially affordable, as the currency exchange has turned favorable for Americans. The U.S. dollar now brings about 1.18 Canadian.Too bad I don't ski - that tram sounds pretty cool. Posted by James Trotta at November 15, 2008 11:16 PM
