– Island Lake Catskiing extends its winter operating season.

Fernie, British Columbia. March 21st, 2011 – Island Lake Catskiing extends its winter operating season.

Island Lake Catskiing has been having an amazing snow year.  The consolidated base in the alpine is around 5.5 metres or 18 feet of snow.  “With the extraordinary amount of snow we have, it only makes sense to keep on running into April” says Mike McPhee from Island Lake Catskiing.  The resort will run an extra multi-day trip April 3-6 and be running day skiing until at least April 7^th.   “If you have not had enough snow yet and enjoy sunny spring skiing, give us a call”. Added McPhee

Island Lake Catskiing in Fernie B.C. has been a backcountry ski industry leader for over 20 years.

Huge Storm Hits Island Lake Catskiing

Well- I did not think this season could get any better, but we are currently in the middle of a huge snow storm.  In the last 3 day we have had 80 cms of light, dry champagne powder.  It looks like the snow will continue for at least the next few days as well.  Our base at 2000 metres elevation is over 400 cms now. Wow is right.  Keep it coming Ullar.   Its time you experienced Catskiing in BC.
