Kootenay Rockies Powder Highway Beckons the Ultimate Ski Bum

Take one of the most coveted ski destinations on the planet. Add three entire months of exploration on four famed mountain ranges: the Rockies, Purcells, Selkirks and Monashees.  Drop in eight resorts, and the highest concentration of snowcat and heli operations anywhere, not to mention endless glaciers, peaks, tree stashes and bowls, all linked together by one adventurous road, and then make it all free.  Need more?  Throw in cosy accommodation and a sweet ride for three months, one very lucky winner and you’ve got the The Powder Highway Ultimate Ski Bum contest.  From January 1 – March 31, 2010, the Ultimate Ski Bum will revel in unlimited day passes at eight resorts (Red Mountain, Revelstoke, Kicking Horse, Fernie, Kimberley, Whitewater, Panorama, and Fairmont Hot Springs); 16 days of Heli/Cat skiing from, you guessed it, 16 powder greats, including Powder Cowboy and Big Red Cats; accommodation, return flight and vehicle rental (plus gas).  Beginning October 5, 2009, submit a 90-second video explaining why you should be the Ultimate Ski Bum; the winner will be announced December 1, 2009, as voted by video viewers and the Powder Highway Ski Resort judges.  For full details, plus a bit of inspiration, visit www.powderhighway.com/SkiBum/
