This was today. The snow was sick. 16" or 40 cm of fresh. Mind you this was in Elkford and I don't know about Fernie but we are only 70 kms apart. I will have a video done up tonight

We are so looking forward to the event as well. Have never riddin Fernie area before. Ride Mostly Golden, Valemont etc and can somebody tell me what the avy situation is like in the kootneys. We have all the necessary equipment and am just wondering what the risk is in this particular area. Some feedback would be awesome. Thanks

The newest bulletin (tonight) was Moderate for Monday and Tuesday. Considerable for Wednesday. Generally speaking, you can ride the Rolling Hills and not have a lot of worries. The Notch is the big concern. Lots of safe riding areas.
