I tend to run the same setup everywhere, and that setup tends to be fairly stiff as my bikes spend a good chunk of time in Whistler. Both in and out of the bike park Whistler requires a very supportive front end, and I'll usually bottom the fork once a day here. Other locations I'll generally have 15 mm of unused travel after a ride. If you have 20 - 30 mm of unused travel on the regular you might want to consider dropping the air pressure a bit so you're using more of the travel, especially if you're already at 0 tokens. Particularly with this new Grip X2 damper I think you could add low speed compression damping to obtain some good support for rider inputs, but still use more of the travel in bigger impacts.
