Travelocity Never Roam Alone Ski Guides
Want to see Whistler and Blackcomb like you've never seen them before? Join the Travelocity Never Roam Alone Ski and Ride Guides. There are groups for a wide range of ability levels, and as long as you can comfortably link turns on green runs, you're welcome to come and join us - we have groups ranging from a mellow, cruising group all the way to a fast-paced, adventurous group (for skiers, boarders, and exclusive women's groups!). The Never Roam Alone Guides meet daily on alternating mountains at 10am, at Glacier Creek on Blackcomb and at the Roundhouse Lightboard on Whistler. So, if you're looking to meet some new people and have a great time skiing or riding, come join us - never roam alone!
