Grizzly Hibernating in Thunder Meadows Cabin

Fortunately this is a ploy to get your attention however it could be a reality.

Yesterday during a wood delivery to Thunder Meadows we found the cabin and toilet doors open with snow blowing in. Fortunately we visited before the structures filled with snow and/or had a grizzly move it.

Please latch the doors and follow our other policy items to help ensure everyones cabin expectations are exceeded.

Please read our cabin policies and share with your group:

1. The firewood and propane is flown in by helicopter each autumn at great expense, please conserve and minimize your footprint. Operate the stove efficiently by using the damper and keep the door closed at all times. Please melt snow in the provided melt pots on the wood stove rather than using the propane.

2. Please use the outhouse (located beside the cabin) for everything, including urinating. Bacteria from urine works it way up through the snow-pack towards light creating a health hazard. You know where you urinate however the next group does not and could become ill from your bacteria. This is the reason why dogs are not allowed.

3. Our solar panel system can be compromised with prolonged snow cycles, please conserve. Please power the lights off when touring and on your departure.

4. Please ensure the propane is turned off when touring and on departure.

5. Please pack out everything that you bring including all tin, glass and food.

6. Ensure that the door and windows are closed and latched when leaving.

7. Properly clean the cabin for the next guests as we have no custodian to clean after you.

8. Dogs are NOT permitted in the winter at as they put guests in danger due to contaminated snow which is used for water consumption.

9. Please report any damage or resource shortages such as wood or propane to directors@fernietrails.com.

Thank you and have a great season!
