    Living in Revelstoke

    So I’m currently in Ontario and I got a 50% chance of getting a job with the City of Revelstoke as a mechanic. For the locals what’s it like to live in Revelstoke? I know it is expensive being a big tourist destination but what’s day to day life like? I plan on renting a small apartment for the...

    First of all thanks Modman and everybody else who’s commented, I really appreciate all the input and it’s been great to get feedback on all the different living options. My plan was to come out this winter and experience mountain riding and then make my decision, and I would definitely rent for...

    So what determines the club boundaries? Different mountain ranges? Also the City of Fernie posted an ad for a Mechanic, what’s around there in terms of riding?

    That fee is for parking at the staging areas and access to the trails to get to all the play areas correct?

    Speaking of club membership how does that work in BC? Here in Ontario we got the Ontario Federation of Snowmobile Clubs and if you buy your permit early it’s $190 for the whole season. Let’s you ride anywhere in the province

    I seen that ad for Revelstoke, there’s some nice places there but a little more than I can afford right now. There’s tons of HET jobs but I’ve got far more truck experience, I work for a ready-mix company and got lots of hydraulic and some front end loader experience. So is it true there’s no...

    Definitely need work, I’m 28 and I work as a heavy duty truck mechanic and there’s all kinds of jobs available in both province’s. Just looking around at house prices it’s a lot more affordable in the Okanagan valley compared to the lower mainland. What’s the riding situation like from the valley?

    Oh yeah I’m well aware of the dangers of mountain riding and I’m trying to do an avalanche course before my trip for an added level of safety. I’m going solo but I asked to be put into a group of other riders for the tour. Is there much riding closer to Calgary?

    I currently live in Ontario and I’m coming to Revelstoke this winter for a tour at the Glacier House to experience mountain riding. For the guys who live in Calgary, how long of a drive is it to all the mountain riding areas? And where would be the best place to live in BC to be close to good...

    Any F1 fans on here?

    If Ferrari can keep up this form and Red Bull bounce back it should throw everything out the window and make it interesting. I’m kinda surprised Red Bull were off the pace in Singapore but maybe they had tire management issues, which also could be why Ferrari were so strong. Mercedes...
