...bottom but snowing hard at the summit, which at about 7,000 ft. is a mile higher than the base. Our guide told us not to worry. Whistler must have about 10 different weather systems on any given day, it seems. "We're going to drop a couple of hundred feet out of this cloud and it will clear up," he said.
