As the snow melts on Whistler Blackcomb, the mountain really comes alive.
Over 60 black bears call this mountain home during the summer. The ski hills of Whistler and Blackcomb Mountains are actually the perfect environment for bears because the way they are logged allows for lots of open spaces for the bears to find food like berries and grass.
Bear feeding patterns shift from valley bottom to higher mountain elevations as the summer continues. Whistler Blackcomb's experienced and qualified team offers bear viewing tours during the summer months, which allow the public safe access to these hidden scenic alpine ecosystems.
