Of the 40 rooms set aside at a special discounted Canuck Splitfest rate, only about 10 remain.

If you've been putting this off, I encourage you to pick up the phone and book your room quickly. The hotel was full last year....

Congratulations to MacKenize Wilson of Calgary who is the winner of a free Prior hoodie. Thank you to all 60 people who registered online before December 10th.

Registration remains open and is free. We encourage everyone to register so that we can have a better idea of how many people will be attending.

Hey, if anyone is heading up from Montana-side who wants to carpool or if there's anyone else who wants to share a room, let me know!

The raffle has been sorted out. The regulations around donating to the Craig Kelly fund simply proved to be too onerous.

The Canadian Avalanche Foundation (CAF) will be conducting the raffle. Tickets will be $2 each, with 4,000 total tickets up for sale. Prize pool is just over $9,000 worth of gear. Proceeds from the raffle will go to the CAF's Canadian Avalanche Centre (CAC) Fund. The CAC is the body that issues bulletins and generally educates/informs - so definitely a worthy cause.

The raffle will take place on Saturday night - just like last year and will be preceded by a slideshow or two and the North American premier of FreeRider.

Sounds awesome, great work.

Shaping up to be as good, or even better then last year.

Just booked my flight and registered. I am getting ready. How is the snow looking up that way? Decided not to get a new split so I can afford this trip haha I need to win at the raffle.

The Glacier Park Lodge is on the left of the picture.

Hi Guys,

I just moved to Calgary from Switzerland last June and am looking to hit the Splitfest at Rogers pass.

Anybody heading out from Calgary on Friday January 6th?
Does someone want to share a room at the lodge?
I am also looking for so touring partners, I have been splitting for 4 years now first on a homemade split and since last year on a Jones. I have my Canadian AST1 and had been riding since '95 in the Swiss Alps. I love riding steep lines and powder trough the trees (probably like all of us...)

If anyone is interested in my offer just PM me and we can work out something.

Ride On
