Whistler Blackcomb is two connected mountains near Vancouver, British Columbia, and is North America's largest lift-served ski area by skiable acreage. The two peaks are linked by the Peak 2 Peak Gondola — a continuously circulating tricable lift with the longest unsupported span of any lift in the world (3.02 km) — not a reversible tramway. It has multiple base villages: Whistler Village, Creekside, and Blackcomb Base.

What the sources say
Every note below is drawn from the resort's own or an independent official publication.
Lift count is disputed between sources (34 per Wikipedia, 26-27 per commercial aggregators) — the two aggregator sources roughly agree and are used here.
Summit elevation reflects the combined highest lift-served point (2,284 m) rather than either peak's individual summit figure, which differ slightly between sources.
Confirmed: the Peak 2 Peak Gondola is a continuously circulating tricable lift, explicitly not a reversible tramway — no true cable car exists at Whistler Blackcomb.
