True North Drafting recently completed the shop drawings for the “Peak 2 Peak” gondola base stations at Whistler/Blackcomb. This is one of the most exciting and publicized projects that TND has been involved with. Randy Goodwin (owner of Whistler Glass) had to overcome many unprecedented challenges that included driving up and down Whistler Mountain on a daily basis in a pick-up truck, an experience that is far from the average commute to a job site. Randy also indicated that weather played a large role in this project, given the elevation and exposure to extereme winds. This new gondola ride spans 4.4km/2.73 miles and reaches a height of 436m/1,427ft above the valley floor below. We look forward to being there for the grand opening on December 12, 2008.
