VANCOUVER On the first Monday that B.C. kids are out of school, the province has a message for outdoor enthusiasts. “We are expecting unprecedented use this winter,” said Jennie Aikman, regional director with BC Parks. “We’re encouraging you to pack your patience, be safe, plan ahead and do your research before you come.” Mount Seymour announced it has implemented a new registration system for skiers wanting to use the resort. “For park visitors who are not using the downhill area, certainly they’re welcome to come into the park, parking is on a first come, first serve basis,” said general manager and owner Eddie Wood. A traffic management system has been put in place and this will direct park users to the respective parking areas and once parking is full they’ll be turned away and encouraged to come back another day.”

Participants start to trickle in, but aside from the chest-hugging hydration vests they wear you’d never know a trail-running half-marathon was about to begin. There’s no pop-up registration table, no branded sponsorship hawking the latest high-tech trail running merch, no barrels of Gatorade. There’s no music, no timing system, not even a formal start line.
