Third time's a charm for Cabin Fever this weekend

This year’s third annual ski/snowboard event, Cabin Fever, hosted by The Cabin, takes place at Revelstoke Mountain Resort (RMR) Saturday, May 2^nd and Sunday, May 3^rd. The crew working behind the scenes promises more features than before — more bumps, jumps, booters, a mini pipe, spines and park jumps.

Another change to the Cabin Fever program includes opening it up to families and sightseers. Bring your partner, your spouse, your kid up the mountain to shred within the boundaries of RMR and with the bonus of 40 plus features built into the natural curvature of the mountain (North and South bowls will not be open).

Then bring your injured neighbor or visiting relatives up the gondola to basecamp to watch the action, eat BBQ made by the Village Idiot and participate in the beats curated by Big E, DJ Arise, DJ RThree and Lorne B.

This opportunity to shred RMR in May comes with some restrictions. Ski patrol and security will keep an eye out for misconduct. Tickets must be bought, registration and waiver signed before going up the gondola. Registration is open at The Cabin from noon to 8pm on Friday, May 1^st.
