Whistler Blackcomb is renowned worldwide to be XXL, hence the reason the trail map is labeled the Atlas!  Capturing Whistler from a bird’s eye view Switchback Entertainment has developed XXS of Whistler Blackcomb mountains, documenting a day in the life of this winter wonderland, where the town and mountains appear like a real life snow globe.
