Parks Canada rated Fairview as poor for skiing this week, but I'm not sure what that was based on. I skied it today, and would rate it fair to good!
It was mostly skier tracked in a couple of cm of new-ish snow, over old grooming, with some bootprints also. Slightly rough hills could be managed with a good snowplow.
The weather was warm and sunny, the mountains beautiful, and the trails not at all busy. I easily found parking at Moraine Lake Road at 11:15 am! The road and Tramline were very recently groomed.
The worst part of the day was the excessively windy drive out and back from Calgary :O
