Changes at Fernie for 2009/10

Sat 05 September 09

2 New groomers and some piste improvements are set for the new season

Two brand new Prinoth BR 350 machines have been added to the fleet. Known as the “North American Groomer”, this machine offers greater efficiency, increased reliability, enhanced performance, and ease of operation.

A ¼ million dollar run improvement program was launched this summer. Efforts included heavy brush cutting and mowing on core runs to improve terrain for all levels of skiers and riders. New clearing and sculpting on Bear and Cruiser are part of a major commitment to provide consistent and quality skiing and riding right from opening of the the resort.
