Peak 2 Peak Gondola.

Far more than a simple ski lift, the Peak 2 Peak Gondola is a record-breaking feat of engineering that connects the peaks of Whistler and Blackcomb mountains. Suspended a dizzying 436 meters (1,427 feet) above the valley floor, the 11-minute journey spans 4.4 kilometers, including a massive 3-kilometer unsupported stretch between towers. For skiers in the winter and hikers in the summer, it eliminates the need to descend to the village to switch mountains, opening up seamless alpine exploration. The cabins offer 360-degree views of volcanic peaks, glaciers, and temperate rainforests—and if you wait for one of the silver glass-bottomed cabins, you get a direct look straight down into the canopy. It is a spectacular, stomach-dropping link that turns transit into the main event.
