Meet the Vision Behind the Mountain

At the heart of Mt. Fernie Estates is a vision built on decades of real-world land development experience, disciplined project management, and a genuine appreciation for Western Canadian mountain communities.

Mark Mooney, founder and director of Mt. Fernie Development Corp., brings more than 20 years of experience in land development, subdivision planning, rezoning, and project execution across Alberta and British Columbia.

Mark earned his Commerce degree from the University of Lethbridge in 1996 and went on to achieve his Project Management Professional (PMP) designation in 2018, pairing business strategy with disciplined execution.

Over the years, he has led a wide range of residential, recreational, industrial, and resort-focused developments, including:

  • The subdivision of nearly 2,800 acres surrounding Whitetail Lake into 25 recreational lots
  • Multiple land redesignation and subdivision projects throughout Foothills County, Alberta
  • Resort development and rezoning work in Fairmont Hot Springs
  • Residential and multi-family redevelopment in Edmonton
  • Ongoing industrial and mixed-use development initiatives across Southern Alberta


What sets Mark apart is his hands-on approach. From land acquisition and planning approvals to infrastructure coordination and long-term community vision, he stays involved at every stage of the process.

With Mt. Fernie Estates, the goal is simple: build a mountain community that offers lasting value, stunning surroundings, and an exceptional place for families, retirees, vacation homeowners, and outdoor enthusiasts to build their future.

Located near the world-class recreation and natural beauty of Fernie, Mt. Fernie Estates represents more than real estate. It’s an opportunity to invest in a lifestyle rooted in adventure, community, and the enduring appeal of mountain living.

Today, Mt. Fernie Development Corp. is focused exclusively on the successful development and marketing of Mt. Fernie Estates, bringing professionalism, transparency, and long-term commitment to every phase of the project.
