A surprise 25 cms hit Fernie and Island Lake Catskiing yesterday and the skiing is fantastic.  Though we had a couple dry weeks, our mountain was working hard to open more alpine terrain everyday, to give our guests untracked skiing.  This fresh blanket has filled everything in and made the conditions great.

Don't be too quick to write them off though… there's a good chance Bern actually has...
