Really sad to have to report that Bernie Warriner of the Lake District ski club passed away today after a short illness. Perhaps the most active skier living in England as recently as last season, Bernie was awarded a British Empire Medal in the new year awards for his outstanding contribution to skiing in the Lake District.
This short film about Raise 'stars' Bernie and gives an idea of his larger than life personality.
Oh too bad. Privileged to meet him last Easter. Absolute skiing star.

Sad news, never actually met him but would have liked to. From what PeterS and fellow skiers at the other place have said about him he was one of the characters of English club skiing. Dedicated to enjoying it and ensuring it could be enjoyed by others.
