Graham Underhill

Draw entry answer by Graham Underhill for the Whistler Museum event "Whistler's Mountain Identity [...]". In response to the question "What would you like to say about the past, present, and future of Whistler's Mountain Identity?" Graham responded:

"Wish some and many things had stayed as they were. Progress has not necessarily been better in some areas. Traffic is out of control. Too much push for more visitors and profits. Parking at Creekside should be pay if anywhere is pay."
