Thanks GB,

I guess I was hoping for big news, like 24-hour snow-making on Skydive or a slide-ride down the face of Polar Peak ;)

I like haul-back as well, but it sure complicates trips into Cedar – three lifts to get back onto Snake Ridge. Some of the best runs are over there.

My dream: expansion into Fish Bowl, with a lift that runs right up the spine of the ridge between Fish and Cedar. That would open up the top of both bowls to true bowl skiing. Haul-back would remain in place to drag your tired legs out after a morning of 3-4 screaming runs – one of the few potentially exceptional peak-to-valley runs at Fernie.

The lift sure would ruin my favourite summer hike, though.

Any other “dream” improvements out there?
