WHISTLER – A large rockslide has closed part of the Whistler Blackcomb ski resort in British Columbia, but the resort says no one was hurt.
A statement from Vail Resorts, which owns and operates Whistler Blackcomb, says the rockslide occurred in the vicinity of Whistler Peak early Thursday morning before the resort was open.
Photos and videos posted online show piles of dark dirt and rocks down a large stretch of the snowy mountain.
The statement says no one was in the area at the time and there were no reported injuries.
Whistler Peak and the Peak Express Chair will remain closed until further notice.
The statement says the operations team is assessing the situation and that the resort doesn’t have any more information to share.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published March 12, 2026.
