The Fernie Nordic Society hosted the fourth annual Pumpkin Hunt last Saturday.

The event attracted hundreds of people with all 350 pumpkins sold.

They went for $10 apiece with all proceeds going back to the Nordic Society, a non-profit organization that offers cross-country skiing development programs and events in Fernie.
