Fernie is home to a host of many amazing winter activities, each with a different challenge. Here, Luke Nelson climbs one of the waterfalls in the Morrissey region during a cold spell in November.

While it’s no monumental shot with flying powder or a soaring skier, this winter action is great nonetheless. Fernie Nordic Society coach Clark Weber and his group of Jackrabbits are working on their technique as they make their way around the trails at the Fernie Golf and Country Club on a beautiful sunny morning.
