Snow Country
This competition had driven development of the two mountains at a rate no other resorts could come close to matching. In 1992, "Snow Country Magazine" voted Whistler the Number One Ski Resort in North America. Similar No. 1 rankings quickly followed from other major magazines, and between 1992 and 2000 it won No. 1 ranking from one of the major magazines every year. In 1996, it became the only resort in history to be simultaneously named No. 1 by "Snow Country", "SKI" and "Skiing" magazines.
