Re: Fernie Winters 2011/12
Work can be hard to come by, there’s a ski hill job fair and a town job fair, i think they’re both usually in October. There’s all the usual ski resort jobs – lifties, ticket sellers, hotel/restaurant staff. If you haven’t got experience doing any jobs like that before it can be pretty tough, it’s worth getting into town early to help secure a job. But it’s also a good idea to budget for the possibility of not getting a job.
If you don’t secure accomodation before you get here it’s a good idea to book a night or two in the raging elk hostel while you look for somewhere. Lots of people usually meet in the raging elk and end up renting places together.
Good call to stay in town rather than at the ski hill.
My previous WTF comment was aimed at skitrips missinformation about cranbrrok airport being 5 mins away! – It’s an hour.
