I am going to fernie this march and I am wondering if they have any sort of park, because the trail map did not show anything.

because of RCR's decision to get rid of jumps and only have small rail parks, I have decided to boycott RCR, and recommend everyone to do the same.

So, on that note: I recommend you don't go to RCR. And besides, almost all of BC is hurting for snow this year. there's some snow in the forecast over the next week here, but I'll believe it when I wake up to it.

it wouldnt be that long, because i am sure he wouldnt be coming FROM fernie, as all he has to do is change some plans. but you are right, its not that close, but i have been on 24 hour drives, so it doesnt seem that bad.
