Fattwins 0 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 That and the followers toque are the true problem. I did wittness a patrol ski cut line. I wont touch the DBD due to the dangerous bikes now poaching every line. They have the gall to say that it is abunai. Hah. Tsugaike cracks down about now anyways every year. Tats more than likely pissed them off bigtime cause he kept skiing there even after all his troubles. Link to post Share on other sites

That is Vail Mongolia/Outer Mongolia is over the back off the top of Fernie's Timberline Quad. It's got some really nice rock gardens where you can build some nice QPs as well as some sick tree runs. Vail has a place with the same name too ay? Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 I was there pre expansion so we had to hike into places like the saddles or currie bowl. Was so perfect back then. Back then they had a rope line to haul your butt up to bomb the staddle start zones. Link to post Share on other sites

Did he get a warning first? Or was the argument the first time he was caught? Link to post Share on other sites
Fattwins 0 Posted March 9, 2005 Share Posted March 9, 2005 That was his first time this year. Caught in the same spot as us. but to be honest they are using a mobile to eye the N and S ways out. If they see you on the N way out I fuigure the mobile will make a break for that side very quickly. Whichever I figure its all over there unless it snows and they cant see you. Its easy to tell when you drop in though cause really once you drop over the back with fattys on they know. We could traverse the chutes to get to most of the lines thus hiding our tracks in. But that would require a slight bit of step ups on the traverse. or just hit happo up and start BC touring as planned Link to post Share on other sites

Still and awesome bowl but it got tracked out so fast with lift access. I was there in 98/99 just after the LL crew bought it out. At the end of that season they bulldozed the daylodge and rebuilt the place. Haven't been there since but have heard it's like a mini Whistler now. Kicking Horse out of Golden was the buzz back then and that's a place a wouldn't mind spending a year snowboarding and mountain biking but it's back to Oz for me. Link to post Share on other sites
happyhappy 0 Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 Why did the new lift kill the place? Link to post Share on other sites
Dougy 0 Posted March 12, 2005 Share Posted March 12, 2005 It didn't kill Fernie just Currie Bowl. Before the lift you had to hike to get to Currie and the fresh powder lasted longer. It did have advantages like making it easier to get to other places but for me Fernie then and Fernie now are two totally different ski areas. The old Fernie had more charm now it feels just like a mini Whistler or Lake Louise, maybe more like LL as it's owned by the same guy. Link to post Share on other sites
happyhappy 0 Posted March 14, 2005 Share Posted March 14, 2005 I heard about that ages ago (Currie Bowl) - my friend must have been there before the development because he was going on about how sweet it was an hardly anyone else there. Link to post Share on other sites
