    Hm, they usually have that info on their website, but for some reason it’s not there right now. I am 6.3 or so and they are long enough for me, the waist is fully adjustable, with velcro tabs, so there’s a good range there. Best to maybe try them on and see. Is this Joe from the Elk?

    Well guys, thanks for the support from all of you who have been positive and supportive toward what we were doing/did. My skin has become increasingly thick after all the backlash I have had. I hadn’t been on the forum in so long as my days have been filled with fresh turns, work and a new puppy.

    Its a shame that some of you feel that you didn’t get all your questions answered and issues resolved before the party, but did you really expect us to be sitting in front of a PC just to answer questions from people who were anti the party? Come on guys, I slept 8 hours in three days, and every waking hour was spent sorting the party (sob sob), but I loved it…..

    Immediately before the party I had some dude try and beat me up, as he was convinced we were in it for the money, well sorry to disappoint, but we made absolutely nothing, and spent probably 100 hours organising it. My roommates, partner and I even did all the cleanup ourselves the following day – thanks heaps guys, wicked job….

    I spent the few hours before the party dealing with the RCMP, which again turned out awesomely, but could have cost me alot of money.

    All in all we are really stoked on how it went on the night, no fights, no visible damage, no police issues, and enough firewood to keep everyone from totally freezing.

    [b:2t7v2shp]Thanks everyone that came, you were wicked, keep your eyes on the garage for details of another party….[/b:2t7v2shp]

    For the record, the donation was $500, and yes I do have a receipt. Parties like that are expensive eh!

    What kind of selfish person are you whiteroom….. get a life. We have full support of the people who ran the first mogul smoker, so your negative selfish attitude is falling on deaf ears.

    $15 in advance $25 on the day,
    there bands as well,
    not just bleep bleep music.

    I’m guessing there will be a little ski burning I’m sure as we are not against ski burning itself, but we are really concerned about pollution and the environment (hey we want our children to be able to enjoy the mountain with snow as well).

    All info is available on http://www.mogulsmoker.ca

    All proceeds are going to SPCA in Cranbrook

    Hey Gavitron and Griz-Boy

    Gavitron – Firstly I want to say I’m sorry if we have offended you in any way. It disappoints me that there in this negative attitude towards people trying to do something good in this town. We have already spent countless hours on the phone, organizing entertainment, transportation, lots of beer, and various other fun stuff (all in our own time) so as anyone who is prepared to part with $15 can have a good time.

    We are under no misconception that The Mogul Smoker is a Fernie tradition and are in no way claiming it as our own. Me and my partner just want everyone to have a good party, and good parties cost money. Sure a bonfire with a bunch of diehard locals and a few out of town ski bums may have been a good party in the 80’s, and if you were to organise it this year I’m sure it would still be a good time. But we have taken the initiative to organise it this year and its very disappointing that you seem to want to bash it.

    Please keep in mind that we are making no money whatsoever out of this and all the services are provided by local businesses, and at this stage funded out of our pockets. Last year they charged $10 and you didn’t get any alcohol, this year we are putting on lots as part of the ticket price. I find it confusing that you say we are ripping off charity. The funding for the party is coming from ticket sales and our pockets.

    Griz Boy – please don’t try and drive out to the party and come for free. Everyone that comes for free means that I pay. I have already spent shit loads of time and money organising this and its just not really very nice.

    PS who said it was at Coal Creek anyway?

    Basically, if you don’t want to come don’t, but if you want a great time with lots of good music and alcohol (all for $15, $15 buck man) then come, bring your friends and have a good time.

    Thanks alot

    To everyone out there with negative opinions of the 2005 mogul smoker, please read the following. (For all of those people who have been hugely supportive and excited about the upcoming mogul smoker, thank you very much and I promise you all an awesome time).

    The mogul smoker has always been a good party, but I would love to see it be a great one.

    You cannot have bands and djs and sound equipment without some sort of funding. I can’t remember a mogul smoker that has had good music that suited all tastes (and I can’t remember a mogul smoker that didn’t have beer, and I don’t remember a mogul smoker drink that actually was drinkable).

    There will be over 15 bands and dj’s at this years mogul smoker and I would love to pay them what they’re worth. There are also people in charge of lighting and visuals who I feel deserve some sort of compensation for their art.

    I believe in supporting local businesses as much as possible, and most of the businesses have been hugely supportive of this event, not for the money, just so that people can see how much fun Fernie can be. The Royal Hotel have put in alot of work helping us organise the event. They are doing all the ticket sales and coordinating transport on the night. All this work is being done free of charge, and we thank them immensely.

    This years location for the mogul smoker is a template for future mogul smokers, because if all goes well, next years mogul smoker will be bigger and better. All of the proceeds of this years mogul smoker are going towards the musicians, visual artisits, graphic designers, helpers, local businesses and IF there is any money left over, a good portion will go towards a charity that will be posted on the mogul smoker website after the party (we don’t want to get them excited until we know for sure that there will be any money left over – http://www.mogulsmoker.ca)

    The organizers of this event are not doing it to make money, they just want to cover the huge expense that this type of party generates.

    It’s great to see that a little garage door can generate so much response. Please, bring on the comments…

    For those of you who are in for a good party, please buy your tickets as soon as you can afford them so that we have enough beer (and mogul smoker drink) for everyone. If we need any help, we’ll post it on the website….

    Cheers.
    Jenn & Mark
