if anyone wants to go skating there is plenty of ice at hastings and gamma... someone wiped out and took out a fire hydrant and now the intersection has the potential for street hockey

Roads aren't going to be cleared down there so there should be some fresh snow to play with.

does anyone know what sfu's policy is during winter in their parking lots these days? again, i used to go up there and practice, and before that when i took my YDOC snow training course it was up there as well. i remember security would come by and say don't do anything stupid and they would have no reason to kick me off the mountain and to be careful and not hit the light poles (aka: pylons )...

No ice rink. Couldn't even tell a hydrant was hit as there was no signs of extra water on the ground.
The building next to the Pizza Hut was all messed up. They might have to tear it down as the car hit one of the corners and the roof is falling.
