Just to beat a dead horse, Rousseau, as I've never heard you talk about skiing, I trust you don't ski (apologies if you do). Tremblant and Iceface are nice, but comparing them to Whistler is like comparing the Banff Grand Fondo to the Tour. Yes they're both bike races, and for most riders the Banff Fondo can be a real challenge, however, few cyclists set their life goal to ride it.
I love Tremblant (Tunnel is still a dream and Fuddle Duddle can be fun), but it ain't no Glacier!
