r00kieKind of considering buying a second car. My old Forester drives pretty good but has a ton of miles on it and only gets maybe 20mpg. Does great on snow though, gets me pretty far into the woods, and carries as large of things that I need to move around. Buying another dirt cheap car that's small and gets into the 40s on gas could pay off in the long run.
I'm getting a dual sport for this reason exactly and it'd be cheaper/more fun than another car
Large quantities of market place ads will fill your messenger tonight. Your welcome, I will support your possibly poor future dicision.

jimbobsWant to hit Mountain Creek bike park, but did that last summer and shattered my collarbone. Work wasn't stoked and I don't want to put myself in that position again. Also the time before that at Creek, I separated the other shoulder.
What do y'all think, third time's the charm or just rip local trails for the next month?
I’m gonna try to go sometime this summer, when were you thinking of going? I’d rip a couple laps with ya if you’re there.
talking to one of my managers while I closed today and she went down a rabbit hole about how we can’t can’t talk bad about eugenicist scientists because “everyone back in the day was a eugenicist” and it “paved the way for much of our modern science”.
I told her that’s kind of a dangerous way of thinking because if we excuse every bad thing people have done throughout history then nothing ever actually gets better and we don’t learn from our mistakes.
then I asked her if racist old people get the free pass too, cause they’re from an older time when everyone was racist. She gets pissed and storms off. Like wtf?
SendyMcSendyfaceJust get a dual sport. That was my original plan, but the drivers are so bad where I live, I'm not about to get on a fucking bike with them.
Yeah same. Not trying to smoked by an angry Boise dad road raging his rv up hwy 55.
DeebieSkeebiesCan I be honest? Utah was better when everyone thought we were weirdo Mormons and you fucking kooks stayed out.
I haven't been to utah since 2016 and the impression I get lately is that it is significantly more blown out even in just those last 6 years. I can only imagine the crowds on a good day mid winter

honestly, this is just everywhere it seems. Tahoe has been blown out for a while, but now reno is well on its way. SLC is blown out, Bozeman is well on its way to being blown out, front range got blown out 15 years ago (actually probs more, can't believe its 2022 already). Bend is blown....Etc Etc. Big cities in mountain towns draw a lot of attention.
Im trying to find a place to move and start a career/life after I have more experience in my job, and it is 100% a bitch. Moving back to South Dakota and taking 4-5 trips to steamboat a year is looking more and more appetizing sadly. If you had asked me if I would move back 2+ years ago I would have laughed.

If I didn't love Snowbird so much I'd be looking into finding a remote job ASAP and going to some small undercrowded place in the BC rockies
Finally got my own studio 30ish min from my job and the ski hills. Been living with roommates for awhile so happy to finally have my own spot longterm. Feel like lifes really coming together and all the work ive done in the past few years is paying off.

Bend is a total shitshow now. So glad I don't live in town!
I think its awesome that so many people are living in ski towns and making it work. Sorry to jaded NSers other people like the same shit as you.
I like living in a big city and my career which is very major city oriented but taking 2-3 dope fly to ski trips per year is my #1 hobby and I get enough days in. We just need more ski resort expansion with added lifts and terrain. Demand is increasing supply simply can't stay the same.

BradFiAusNzCoCaI moved to Utah in 2011 and moved out within 3 months lol

"Making it work" lol you mean working from home in some BS fintech job and spending their trust funds

Music in the park at big sky for free every week for the whole summer. It's always such a great vibe too

Haha yo I saw the Melvins a few years back they were sick ! Weird but sick
Favorite fucking band. I’ve been writing them on insta asking them to come to Denver (with no reply lol). Tickets booked - FREAKS TO THE FRONT!!

Gotta love it when rich people from cities buy up all the property and drive prices through the roof. It's happening in Maine too with people from Mass and New York moving here. It's becoming near impossible to live in Portland unless you have a really well paying job.

Honestly no clue yet. Possibly the weekend after the 4th of July? Got a bud in NJ who rides there a lot, but he's busy af currently.
I'll be hitting Snowshoe bike park every weekend when college starts back up, hopefully getting some laps in with the NS crew in the area. Always down for laps there, favorite place in the world.
ski_salmon69I’m gonna try to go sometime this summer, when were you thinking of going? I’d rip a couple laps with ya if you’re there.
I’m so tempted to walk off the job right now and go home, sadly I gotta get my check physically tomorrow. Manager is the biggest scumbag I’ve ever met, got an angry customer paying us a lot for good work and wants it done today and my boss is just joking around and literally calling him gay boy to his face thinking it’s ok. If you’re in PC and apply to a landscape job don’t work for High Country it’s fucked up.
