Stop 2 Pass by

Viewing the backside of Whistler Blackcomb from Brandywine Mountain offers a unique and stunning perspective. Brandywine Mountain, situated to the south of the Whistler Blackcomb resort, provides a vantage point that highlights the less-visited, rugged side of the ski area.

Black Tusk stands out prominently with its dramatic, jagged silhouette. The peak is characterized by its dark, almost black, volcanic rock, which contrasts starkly with the surrounding landscape. The top of the peak often appears to be a rugged spire, adding to its impressive and somewhat mysterious appearance.

When you look at Mount Fee from the Callaghan Valley, you're greeted with a striking and dramatic view. Mount Fee, part of the Coast Mountain range in British Columbia, rises prominently against the horizon. Its rugged, jagged peak often appears snow-capped, even in summer, adding a crisp, white contrast to the darker, rocky slopes.
