So...it started with an innocent little idea.
I was just riding the chairlift with a friend. We began to laugh about the 'Singles' line at the base of the chair. And, oh, if only it were that easy in life....Wait a second....YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! And thus, Lifts of Love was born. Speed-dating at a ski hill. Each lift ride up is a speed date with some other eligible snow rider. And if you don't like how it goes, well, you schuss off into the distance.

By the next day, Cupid (aka Jeff Siddle) was on the slopes of Mt Norquay for his photo shoot. |

Thanks to CJSW's Charmer's Almanac and Mountain FM for radio interviews, and a host of others (including but not limited to the Canmore Leader, Rocky Mountain Outlook, Calgary Herald, Calgary Sun, Virgin Radio) for great stories and coverage! |
Footnote: The added hilarity here is that I grew up skiing at a very small, intimate ski hill. When skiing alone, at the base of the hill you were to raise a pole in the air, tilt your head back and belt out a mighty 'SIIIIINGLE!' I always thought this was how one should operate in pubs and such. Finally, I now have an outlet. And for those of you who are thinking that I launched this entire event as a campaign to uncover my next mountain man. Well....so what if I did???
