"A look back at the local census 105 years ago" is the focus of this week's Museum Musings feature. 98 people lived in the Valley back in 1921. The article touches on jobs, marital status, ages of the residents back then -- and celebrates that 15 different countries were listed as place of origin. Whistler continues to be a culture mosaic... DAILY, FREE Walking Tours begin TODAY! We meet at 11 a.m. outside the Visitor Centre...tours are just over an hour! Step into the past, falling into the footfalls of this town's vibrant history!  Rain or Shine! "Jurassic Park" is the title of this past week's Museum Musings feature.  The piece explores the geological history of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains, from their formation millions of years ago to the rocks that make up their slopes today. Logging operation at Parkhurst Mill (between 1927-1929), on the edges of Green Lake. The photograph shows the railcar, a spar tree, and the steam donkey. The man standing on the log in the foreground is Ross Barr. Special Exhibition closes on June 14th ... less than a week-and-a-half remains for you to come in and view Through His Lens: The Bruce Rowles Photography Collection. Group exercise and stretching at Rainbow Lodge. [1930] Whistler used to have a mascot: Willie Whistler! Participants at the Whistler Marathon, August 1982. The seasons are changing... bikers (and hikers) avidly wait for the snow to recede to reveal more terrain.
