Never been to Whistler, and I need to go before I get too old.

I lived in Whistler for 13 years, and believe me, it is VERY overrated. The snow isn't great, everything is ridiculously expensive (ex. $11 hamburgers), and the place is so crowded that you feel like you are in Disneyland waiting for the gondola. The only thing it really has going for it is its massive size. Go to any of the mountains in the interior of BC (Sun Peaks, Silverstar, Big White etc.) as they are far superior. Or if you really want an experience, go heliskiing at Mike Weiglie's in Blue River.
