Whistler Train Wreck Hike

A quick-paced walk from the Whistler Olympic Athlete's village to a mangled, graffiti-covered train wreck is a lovely way to spend a morning. The trail was a little muddy but arrival to the wreck offered a glimpse into a different world. Sam and I climbed up an old ladder where thrill seekers had set up a bike track and we crossed a wooden slat bridge over churning water. It was wonderful.
