Reply To: No Half Pipe…..Tear down the walls!

Of course a pipe isn’t going to make money but its a feature that a mountain resort has as a desiding factor for tourists to come to Fernie. Not everybody is a powder skier and some perfer grooms. If we did have a Super pipe maybe we could get a FIS event in Fernie, create exposure, in turn new revenue and more tourism. Park rats need parents and the parents need a place to stay and eat and retreat $$$. While they order room service and rack up the rents Visa.

Look at Whistler, it has something for every flavour of tourist. You don’t have to be satified with what FAR decides to doze the pipe or feel like they are doing us a favour in opening later then last year or charging full price for 3/10 lifts.

Hey no snow is making me crabby!
