- CHAIR 1 CONSTRUCTION: ski area employees will be working throughout the summer on the construction of Chair #1. Please be aware of significant heavy equipment and motor vehicle traffice in the upper base area - on the roads, in the parking lot and around the mountain. For your safety, please stay well clear of the construction areas and equipment.

- DO NOT FEED OR INTERACT WITH THE BEARS!!!!!!!!!!!! For your safety, and for the bears' safety, do not feed or interact with the bears.

From the government of B.C.'s bear aware website:
" People teach bears bad habits. If bears are allowed to access human food and garbage, they quickly learn to associate it with people and become what is called food-conditioned. These bears lose their fear of humans and become habituated to people.

Habituated and food-conditioned bears are more difficult to drive away than wild bears. If a bear develops a taste for human food, it usually keeps coming back for more. Wild bears can become permanently food-conditioned after only one encounter with non-natural food.

Food-conditioned bears learn to expect human food and are more likely to approach people than wild bears. These bears can damage your property and they are a potential risk to you and the safety of your family. In most cases, however, when a bear comes into conflict with people, it's the bear that loses."
