WEST KELOWNA, B.C. - A ski resort near West Kelowna, B.C., where a chairlift accident occurred will not be opening for the upcoming ski season.
In March, four people at the Crystal Mountain ski resort plummeted to the ground and were sent to hospital after a chairlift cable dislodged from its track.
The resort posted on its official Facebook page over the weekend it will not be opening for the 2014 to 2015 winter season, but it plans to open the following year.
Emails asking for comment were not immediately returned, and the phone number listed on the resort's web page is no longer in service.
In March, the BC Safety Authority said it was suspending Crystal Mountain's operating licence pending the results of a full investigation, and a spokesman confirmed on Sunday the suspension is still in place.
Quinn Newcomb of the authority says the investigation is finished, but there is "quite a bit of work to be done" on the resort before it satisfies safety standards.
