Terms

These pages are a weather opinion from a retired observer. They are not a forecast product, not a schedule, and not a ticket.

The sky moves

A ridge that was clear at breakfast can be gone by noon. If you go up and find cloud, that is the atmosphere, not a broken promise. I did not sell the hour.

No sale

Words such as tickets, summit, and gondola name the subject of a note. They are not an offer. Nothing here is a checkout.

Use of the text

Link to a page if you like. Do not republish the log as if it were an official mountain notice, and do not scrape it into a product that pretends to be this station.

Risk

Wind, ice, edges, and crowds are the mountain’s, not mine. You choose whether the visibility is worth the trip.

Law

These terms sit under the laws of Alberta and Canada. If one line fails, the others stay.
