Serious question on "building the wall"

Noticed this photo popping up around the internet again and need to get to the bottom of it. Every time this makes the rounds Summit people get a big kick out of it, reposting, crying face emojis, etc. Is it humanly possible to be more ignorant? The folks in Aspen would GLADLY pay for a wall across I70, like do these people not understand the joke is on them? Skiing any of the Aspen mountains is objectively more enjoyable than anywhere in Summit, and in the winter mornings there's a hell of a lot more cars going west than east. So serious question to people of Summit, what are yall doing? Is this a thing only with people who just moved to the area?

Not to take it seriously but I agree Aspen is superior by a lot. I would rather ride Highlands or Ajax than Vail or summit any day. Also if not a park day, I'd rather right Beaver Creek than Summit/ Vail. And if a park day I'd still rather not ride vail. Copper or keystone. Hell even abay is a fun time.

Idk, I can see why Vail is hyped up. It's a good enough mountain and it was probably way more chill a thousand years ago, but it's kind of a shitshow, and it's definitely overrated.

The problem with Vail is its just not a steep mountain. Sure there are acres and acres of wide open bowls but they get old pretty quick because there is not much challenge. Sure Blue Sky basin has some decent tree skiing but not enough to really be worth the extra drive and $20+ parking and all that bullshit. Especially compared to Highlands where its steep as fuck and Highland Bowl is some of the dopest terrain in the US aside from Alta/Snowbird.

Pretty sure this resurfaced just because Trump's dumb ass said "we're building a wall in Colorado" last week.

Trollception happens when you troll subconsciously without even trying. People like you get rustled jimmies from reading my posts because beta hypocrites hate to be told the truth.
