Introducing Sea to Sky Highway

Otherwise known as Hwy 99, this picturesque cliff-top roadway links the communities between West Vancouver and Lillooet and is the main route to Whistler from Vancouver and the Lower Mainland. Undergoing a multiyear upgrade that aims for completion before the 2010 Winter Olympics, the winding route has several worthwhile stops – especially if you’re an outdoor-activity fan, history buff or lover of BC’s variegated mountain landscape. ‘The Mountain’ radio station (107.1FM in Squamish; 102.1FM in Whistler) provides handy traffic and road-condition reports for the route.
