The "Griz" is a legendary and iconic figure associated with Fernie Alpine Resort in Fernie, British Columbia, Canada. The Griz is a mythical character who is said to be responsible for bringing heavy snowfall to the area, making Fernie a renowned destination for powder skiing and snowboarding. Here are some key details about the Griz:

1. **Origin of the Griz**: The legend of the Griz dates back to the early days of Fernie when the town and the resort were relatively unknown. The Griz legend was created as a way to celebrate the area's abundant snowfall and attract attention to the ski resort.

2. **Characteristics**: The Griz is typically described as a larger-than-life, bearded mountain man who wields a musket or shotgun. He is said to roam the mountains surrounding Fernie, firing his gun into the sky to trigger snowfall. The Griz is often depicted wearing a fur hat and coat.

3. **Griz Days**: Fernie Alpine Resort hosts an annual winter festival known as "Griz Days" to celebrate this legendary character. The festival typically includes a variety of winter-themed activities and events, such as snow sculptures, a parade, live music, and competitions.

4. **Powder Capital of Canada**: Fernie's association with the Griz and its reputation for abundant powder snow has earned it the nickname the "Powder Capital of Canada." The consistent and deep snow conditions in the area attract skiers and snowboarders from around the world.

5. **Mascot**: The Griz serves as a mascot for Fernie Alpine Resort and is often featured in promotional materials, events, and merchandise associated with the resort.

6. **Snowfall**: While the Griz is a beloved part of Fernie's history and culture, it's important to note that the legend is not based on actual meteorological phenomena. Snowfall in the area is the result of natural weather patterns and not the actions of a mythical figure.

Visitors to Fernie Alpine Resort can immerse themselves in the Griz legend by participating in Griz Days festivities and enjoying the world-class powder skiing and snowboarding conditions for which the resort is known. It's a unique and fun aspect of the Fernie experience.
