Do you think they would give up the cats? They seem to be doing okay....with sales as least. I can't imagine spending that $$$$ for fortress, but there seems to be a market.

This seems to be optimistic at best. Maybe a misunderstanding of the market.

"Fifty per cent of Albertan ski days are outside the province,” said Waddell. “That’s a huge number of skiers that...

More talk about Fortress.

It would be nice to see this one going again.

I'm just a weekender, but I spend most of my free days at Kicking Horse, Fernie, or Louise. I can let you know if Liz and I are around when you are. I don't know the place like a local, but I can get...

Ozone hasn't opened to the public yet. I think they'll want to use that terrain for the FWT event. I hope it is controlled and will be open to the public after the comp.

Middle Ridge South has...

They opened the Polar chutes again yeserday...in the late morning. Maybe waiting for the snow to soften up a bit.

There was a patroller at the top asking people who looked less than confident if...

There is a lot of touring with easy acess around Fernie.

This blog is a nice pace to start:

It wasn't busy at all. Walk on to the Gondola yesterday. There was still a bit of untracked at the end of yesterday in the less obvious lines.

Great weekend!

I'm heading to Golden tonight so I can spend the weekend in gondola lines.

Maybe everyone will stay at Louise?

Skied Fernie and KH this past weekend. Conditions were excellent in both locations and the crowds didn't seem to come out.

The North Bowl in Revelstoke was good from day one (or third day of...

Stay away from Oxo/Puzzle Ramp...yikes!

Skied Louise on Friday. Conditions were not really icy, but there was a touch of fresh. That might have helped. The 500 was uncomfortably busy most of the day, but alright during lunch hour and after...

Is it a long hike?

Thanks for the update!

Thanks Gary!

And thanks for the HW update.

We skied about half-way from tree-line to the road. Snow was getting thinner lower down, and those Christmas trees weren't very well buried. Didn't...

The discount card details are out now.

Louise lost Castle and Revelstoke to Sunshine.

Casltle's new card costs 80 and gives you half price tickets all year...but no free days. I think Marmot...

So I've been skiing the last couple of weekends (Purple/Hero's in K Country and Bow Summit), and I don't really want to go back to not skiing.

It seems like the Icefields area is escaping the...

The new Kicking Horse map.

Is anybody here going to the Freshtival Films in Calgary? Shredfest in Banff?

Front page of their website. I can't share links until I get my post count up.

Kicking Horse released a teaser trailer for their new (inbounds) terrain. It looks like both sides of Ozone will be in? Does that sound right?

The new trail map should be released soon. It will be...
