Dozens of people clad in their pyjamas briefly took over Marmot Basin to raise awareness about autoimmune diseases, March 20.

Although the group fell short of breaking the record for the most people skiing together at one time, they may well have set a new record for the largest group skiing in their PJs.

The group set out from the top the Canadian Rockies Express chair lift before making their way down S Turns where they stopped for a group photo before continuing to the mid-chalet for a barbecue.

The event was part of a month-long initiative to raise awareness of autoimmune disease and to raise funds for the Find the Common Thread Foundation—a foundation created by Jasperite Marta Rode to help find the thread that links all 150 autoimmune diseases.
