It didn't exist in the early 1980's or at least not like it does now I think there was another smaller scale ski hill in Golden at that time.
Without Lake Louise the bid could be over.

Previously for the 2010 exploration bid, they were looking at Nakiska for the alpine events. I can't find the exact report and the picture consisting with it, but Nakiska has land to north peak that is assigned for expansion of the ski hill. (Which is consistent with the
Evan-Thomas Provincial Recreation Area Master Plan) So if they can't make use of Lake Louise, Nakiska could be expanded to include new runs.
