Fall has settled in in Whistler and the summer activities will come to an end this weekend with the closure of the bike park and golf courses. This Thanksgiving weekend will be a bit quieter than usual, with the absence of the popular Whistler Blackcomb “Turkey Sale”, but some local businesses are having their own version of the sale. And, unbeknownst to me, fishing in Whistler is a great fall activity https://cutt.ly/dgr4UNE.
