I am a Shames locale and we are honoured to be part of the Mountain Guide 2012.
We are having a record snow year. A little better than 9 feet base at our lodge and 11 feet mid mountain as of Jan 6.
Shames has gone through some changes in the past couple of years and come out stronger than ever. The hill has been purchased by a new group of skiers, again mainly from northwest BC.
We are Canada's first not for profit community service co-op. I am proud to be one of about 800 individual members and 100 business members of My Mountain Co-op.
To learn more about us here are some links to our site and some shamless publicty.
