If you’re a fan of engineering, throw some popcorn in the microwave, get your favorite beverage and pull up a seat for this 45 minute documentary that will take you deep inside the struggles to build the worldโs highest, longest, and most technically challenging ski lift….The Peak 2 Peak Gondola in Whistler. Peak 2 Peak isย a tricable gondola lift at Whistler Blackcomb Resort in Whistler, British Columbia, linking Whistler Mountain’s Roundhouse Lodge with Blackcomb Mountain’s Rendezvous Lodge. It has an incredible 1.88 miles span between towers, hovers at 1,430 feet above ground at it’s highest point and is the first lift in the world to join the two side-by-side mountains. Truly a marvel of modern technology. Enjoy.
