I feel terrible about Ecko, they have been shafted. This company is not here to assist small business in Western Canada.

Usually camp in Christina Lake but cancelled this year. Not sledding in Fernie Corbin or Valemount either since our snow is so good too. Sorry but Bring Cash (bc) is not happening anytime soon. Lol
Definitley a possibility of this creeping Northward as well if unchallenged. My quick review of the map shows that once this area is off limits for OHV, then theonly area left between the Banff and Jasper parks is the Cataract Creek and Maclean areas. Might as well give them a battle now. I...
