Neltec has arranged a 1-day post-conference tour to Whistler on Thursday 2 May 2024. The tour starts and ends at the conference hotel. We will be travelling by highway coach on the Sea to Sky Highway along the shore of Howe Sound. The route weaves deep into the coastal mountains and then climbs through old-growth rain forests before reaching Whistler 670 metres (733 yards) above sea level. We will step aboard the Sea to Sky Gondola to reach the peak for stunning views. Admission includes the possibility to cross the Sky Pilot Suspension Bridge – if you dare!
