Mt Seymour History News for fall 2024 and 2025
 

As of Aug. 26th 2024, 

 

 It has been a very good summer of 2024 for the MSHP. Two presentations at Parkgate Library, A presentation at Whistler Museum that was recorded on video. 2 Uncle Al's Cabin Tours and a Pioneer Skier reunion on Mt. Seymour.

​

I'm now heading back home to Edmonton but look forward to summer of 2025 with the hope that again I'll be able to creat some event to celebrate ski history on the North Shore mountains.

As you can see, the web site mtseymourhistory.ca lives thanks to Mt. Seymour Resorts.



As most pioneers have pass on to the great ski hill in the sky, we call these reunions a Family and Friends reunion. One pioneer Ross Regan was there with about 4 family members and for 2024 Patrick Duff is planning to attend.
 
 There was a presentation April 8th 2023 at Whistler Museum, on how people from Seymour helped build Whistler. It went very well and there is a link on Facebook site to a video of the presentation.
