WHISTLER, BC, Tuesday, November 10, 2009 – The words ‘opening day’ and ‘early,’ much like peanut butter and jelly, always go together so well, which is why Whistler Blackcomb is very pleased to announce that Whistler Mountain will open 12 days early, this Saturday, November 14.

A panel discussion on “Staying Ahead of and True to the Challenges of Sustainability,” presented by group Y, evo and FUEL TV.
Speakers include:
+ Dennis Madsen – former REI CEO, evo Board of Directors
+ Mikey Leblanc – Founder & Principal of Holden Outerwear, Pro Snowboarder
+ Chris Rudolph - Director Of Marketing Services at Stevens Pass Resort
It was a killer event and great conversation took place but in listening in you really began to see how much work is left for us to do. We will be hitting you up w/ some notes and a follow up detailing the discussion, Q&A, and upcoming opportunities to get involved! Until then, here are a couple photos from the Panel Discussion.. for the full album check us out on Flickr!
Check out the full Flickr Album and visit www.groupYnetwork.com to learn more!
Last Wednesday evening, evo and group Y hosted a gathering and discussion focused on sustainability and what it means to all of us in the realm of action sports. We had an expert line up of speakers; pro-snowboarder and co-mastermind of Holden outerwear Mikey LeBlanc, former CEO of REI Dennis Madsen, and Stevens Pass Marketing Director Chris Rudolph.
These guys kicked down some serious knowledge and insight and the audience asked some great questions. However, we know that not everyone got the chance to be heard, whether they were in the audience at evo or out there on the interwebs.
We’ll be taking questions from you via email and twitter, and kicking back out the answers from Mikey, Dennis and Chris late next week. We’ll award the most creative/inspiring/thought-provoking question with a very cool limited edition skate deck, courtesy of our friends and group Y event sponsors FUEL TV.
So, fire off your questions to us via email, or via twitter to @groupY.
We’ll post the questions and answers on the blog next week and announce the winner!
Word.

Watch as the crew travels Aspen, Ushuaia, The Wasatch, Haines, The San Juans, Valdez, and El Chalten to search out challenging and beautiful mountains while breaking trail in the ultimate backcountry experience.
