You won’t find a better selection of skis and boots (all suited for Fernie) than in Fernie itself. The prices will be the same as everywhere else. So save yourself the hassle of travelling with all that gear and buy it here.
You can find the ski hill maps here – http://www.skifernie.com/the-mountain/trail-maps.aspx
It is a 5 minute drive from town, the shuttle system is sketchy at the best of times, if you can even find info about it. Hitch hiking from town is the most popular way of getting to the hill.
