The thing I hear about Whistler is the Runs are much longer, 10 mins long downhill? I could be wrong but that's what I heard. I'm used to the 5 mins up the mountain, 30 secs down ..

runs are very long. only thing i don't like about Whistler is it gets seriously crowded during holidays, or any one of there almost never ending festivals or competitions, etc.
a new place pretty close to me (about an hour away) kicking horse, has a 10 KM run. they have the second most vertical in all of N.A. (whister being the first).
Sunshine, which is about 5 minutes from Banff, has an 8 KM run, but the entire run is only completely open for maybe half the season.
