Squamish RCMP are asking the public to stay away from the Sea to Sky Gondola area as they investigate vandalism to the gondola cable lines again.
“We are only a few hours into this investigation, and we ask the public to stay out of the area” says Sergeant Sascha Banks.
“There is an extensive amount of resources in the area and we are asking everyone to stay out of the vicinity including climbing routes, hiking, and closed parking lots.”
On September 14th, at 4 am, the Squamish RCMP were called about the vandalism to the gondola. Police say the gondola line had been cut and the cars had crashed into the mountain.
Squamish RCMP and the Sea to Sky General Investigation Section are working alongside partner agencies including West Vancouver Police Department, the Integrated Police Dog Services, and more will be called as the day goes on.
Police are also asking people to come forward if they have seen anything.
“The Sea to Sky Gondola is an integral part of this community and we very lucky no one was injured. Someone in our area has seen something or has heard something and we are asking them to call us immediately with any information.”
Please contact the Squamish RCMP at 604-892-6100 or contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS, or go to the website www.solvecrime.ca.

So sad.

Time to introduce the water board, this type of vandalism cannot be allowed to repeat and justice must be the end result. Someone sure must have a bee in their bonnet…. a tragedy to the Gondola Compamy and to major implications to the Sea to Sky community. Good luck.
