Peak 2 Peak Gondola, Aerial lift system in Whistler Blackcomb, Canada

The Peak 2 Peak Gondola connects Whistler and Blackcomb mountains with a continuous span measuring 3,024 meters at 436 meters above the valley floor.

Opening in December 2008, this engineering project cost 51 million Canadian dollars and became North America's first Doppelmayr tri-cable lift system.

The gondola serves winter sports participants and summer tourists, making the mountains accessible for skiing, hiking, and nature observation throughout the year.

Twenty-eight cabins transport up to 28 passengers each between Whistler's Roundhouse Lodge and Blackcomb's Rendezvous Lodge, with select cabins featuring glass floors.

The system includes specific design elements to handle strong winds and incorporates redundant safety mechanisms for operation in mountain weather conditions.
