    At SnowSeekers, we call this Canada's Las Vegas. With more than 200 runs and 80 nightclubs and restaurants in a pedestrian-friendly setting, it's evocative of the Alps. And, it's all within 1.5 hours of the world-class Vancouver International Airport.  All eyes were on Whistler during the 2010 Olympic Games, but it has been recognized by the world's media for years as one of the top ski and snowboard destinations.
