Aerial view looking toward Blue Chair, Roundhouse, and T-Bar

A typed note taped to the reverse of the print reads, "In the middle of the right hand side is the famous "Roundhouse" at Garabaldi's Whistler Mountain, 75 miles north of Vancouver, British Columbia. Three chairlifts meet at this point, at the 6000 foot elevation, where skiing is "king" from November to July."

Lunch on the Roundhouse Sundeck

The printed text on the front of this photograph reads:

WHISTLER RESORT ASSOCIATION

A great place to meet your friends for lunch, this sundeck is located at the 6,000 foot (1,829 meter) level of Whistler Mountain. From this vantage point, just outside the Roundhouse daylodge, friends soak up the sunshine and enjoy lunch while other skiers carve up the fresh snow on the T-bar bowl. Whistler and its new neighbor, Blackcomb, located 75 miles (120 kilometers) north of Vancouver, offer a total of 18 lifts and more than 60 designated runs.
