Big Sky Golf and Country Club, located just north of Whistler in Pemberton BC and Blackcomb Aviation have teamed up to offer golfers one of those truly memorable experiences.
Blackcomb Aviation will pick you up in Whistler, and transport you and your foresome by helicopter to the 8,000 foot top of Mount Currie, which is about a 20 minute flight over the spectacular Coast Mountains. Mount Currie rises in an almost vertical wall over Big Sky Golf Course and the Pemberton area. At the top, you'll be able to hit biodegradable golf balls into the valley below, aiming for the course. You won't hit it quite that far, but it will still drop nearly 1,500 yards, which qualifies it as a drive, even though most of the distance is vertical.
After your shots, and lots of photographs, you'll be flown down to the course to play Big Sky, one of the top courses in BC. Following your round, you'll be flown back to Whistler.
All in all, one of those golf experiences that will remain with you for a long time.
