Rockfall at Whistler Peak: Experts Weigh In
Rockfall at Whistler Peak: No Injuries, Investigation Underway
A rockfall occurred at Whistler Peak, Whistler Blackcomb ski resort, early Thursday morning, but fortunately, no one was injured. The slide, captured on video, involved rocks tumbling over about one hundred meters. The Peak Express Chair and Whistler Peak area are now closed for safety checks. Experts suggest recent rain, warmer weather, and freezing cold temperatures may have contributed to the event, potentially exacerbated by broader climate change effects. Avalanche Canada reported strong winds and fresh snow in the Sea-to-Sky region the previous night.
