Whistler Blackcomb Conditions Report: Five Star Slush Whistler Blackcomb is in full on spring mode. With an awesome park setup and 5 star corn to go and harvest, it is hard to go wrong with spring in Whistler. This weekend was especially sunny making the skiing that much more fun.

Recently temps have been a bit warmer than the rest of the month, but that does not mean that there is still no good snow to be found. You simply just need to go higher up on the mountain.
