I've always thought a ski resort there would be a major tourist attraction and a wonderful way to view downtown. Like signal said, I think they are too steep and Rocky to be much good for that also there isn't enough flat stopping area at the bottom before plopping into the plop-filled harbour.. not sure about the ocean facing side though.
Although I ski resort would not work, I would first of all like to see the south side hills developed but seeing how that would never happen in the next 200 years, I would love to see something done to take advantage of the high altitudes and wonderful views the south side hills have. Whether it be a network of hiking trails, a road and lookout built at the top, or my personal favourite: ziplines!
I believe the south side hills are an untapped gold mine for showcasing the city and tourism purposes. I would love to see something unique and memorable done with the hills in the future!
And nice pictures today signal
