Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Hello everyone,
This is happening thousands of kilometers away, and many of you may have read about this at TGR or EpicSki. But the ski community is a tight knit bunch, and we all know people who know people. Basically a young patroller caught the owner of Sunshine Village's son (Taylor Scurfield) skiing in a closed area. Taylor got extremely mouthy and aggressive, and was escorted to the base and had his pass taken away for a short time. Taylor Scurfield exclaimed that the patrol would "pay."
Soon afterward, several senior patrollers who accumulate upwards of 60 years of experience were fired without legitimate cause. Several since then have also been fired.
Regardless of how far away this place is, I would encourage you to check out the facebook page below and read the info section explaining the whole chronology of the affair. Email Sunshine Village and express your displeasure.
I encourage you to all keep the Bow Valley in mind, there is plenty of fantastic terrain to ski, but mark Sunshine Village off your travel list. I wouldn't feel safe skiing there at this point.

Cheers for giving this a few minutes of your time.
Hope you're all enjoying the epic season.

Not sure this needs spamming, as all you're going to do is hurt the goodwill aimed at Sunshine's patrollers right now. There're at least two threads on this subject linking to the facebook page.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Sorry, my quick search in the forum didn't turn anything up. Just trying to spread the word. Clearly it has reached these community already.
