You would never guess in a million years that the Pique is a small town magazine. Well, I guess you could glean that after reading some of the stories contents like 'Girl Guides Jewelery Show," but the actual reporting is topnotch. Some articles are deserving of a much higher readership. OK, it's been a while since I was in Whistler and reading the Pique religiously so I can't think of examples, but trust me.
Beyond the articles, the Pique is the glue that holds Whistler together with Events, classifieds, community programs and the weirdest astrology section EVER. Everyone I knew found their housing through the Pique. Just about everyone I knew who found a second job after the initial pre-season hiring blitz found them through the Pique. Every cool, random event or special guest coming to town was advertised in the Pique.
When you're in Whistler, pick up a free copy of the Pique. You can find them in Newsstands and coffee houses all around town. It is the best was to 'pique' inside the true Whistler. read more
