FoundLocally has begun its weekly ski reports & snow conditions for resorts and ski hills across Canada. This past weekend, ski hills opened in BC’s coastal region, the Rockies and in the Laurentians, with hills in BC’s interior and in Manitoba expected to open this coming weekend. Over the 2004-2005 ski season FoundLocally’s ski reports were used by 50,000 visitors a month, and was key to directing about $25 million in skier spending.
FoundLocally’s ski reports cover 3180 slopes on 134 resorts in all provinces, and are updated each Thursday noon. This allows plenty of time for those planning long weekends or road trips, and they’re updated daily over holidays. The reports compile reports emailed to ski@FoundLocally.com.
This coverage is part of FoundLocally.com’s chain of 20 community portals, which provide in-depth recreation & travel information to a half-million local and tourist visitors a month. Communities covered include Victoria, Vancouver, Fraser Valley, Okanagan, the Rockies, Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Regina, Winnipeg, Thunder Bay, Sault Ste Marie, Sudbury, Ottawa-Hull, Niagara Falls, Fredericton, Halifax, Charlottetown and St John’s. The 6 year old site has evolved into over 19,000 pages of web information, integrating a business directory with just shy of 100,000 businesses.
Listed businesses in the directory include many hotels, bed & breakfasts, restaurants, tour operators, travel agents, and of course ski hills and sporting goods stores. Businesses listed in the community directory can post a description, choose categories that describe their goods & services, as well as post events, coupons, news announcements and job openings. Most businesses get everything they need with a free listing, and registered contacts can update their listings at any time.
To access the ski reports, click on the FoundLocally community on the home page’s map of Canada and click on the Ski Report link. The ski reports are linked with information about the ski hills themselves, as well as online reservations for linked lodging providers.
