True but they'll push it where they can of course.

Well they're bringing in scabs from mother mountains. Obviously they do not know all the procedures and many are not actually fully trained ski patrol anyway.

So how would lift evac work? Very very badly and slowly and unsafely. But since when does a giant corp like Vail give a shit about that

Not entirely but I'm pretty sure way fewer lifts were turning with way longer lines. Plus as Krolden said... It works until your laying there with a concussion and a broken leg wishing some sort of well paid experienced professional would come help you out

Yaaa quite true

Oh that's pretty sweet. Gravity and water a good combo. Just not as easy as it seems

Instinct is geo thermal. Obviously still have to manufacture the plant but taking some heat from the earth... Well no problem.

Any damn you build will screw with the flow of the river which will screw with habitats everywhere up and down river. If planned excellently effects can be ok. In the US there is I believe one river with natural flow and no dam has been created that doesn't have knock on effects

Well oak is good of course since it's what 99% of barrels are made of. I have been experimenting with other things like mesquite as well but not sure if I have alternative faves yet

Yeee really works well. Also a good idea if you like nice old whiskey but don't wanna spend over $30 on a bottle. Get decent cheap whiskey of choice. Age on toasted chips for a couple months. Now that's really good stuff

Yaaaa I've convinced them finally to up the prices on a few big pieces. Maybe a couple are $60 or $70 now. But I'm like as not an artist at all I an literally see how much effort you put into the simplest piece you do. Worth so much more.

Ooooff that's sad. That hat was probably awesome. Take the extra cash. It just means I appreciate you!

Also your drawing up there is lovely. Very expressive!

My partner is like this. Spend dozens of hours on a mosaic and... Price? Oh maybe $15

Got some wood chips toasted em up j In a pan until charred. Then into a big jug with the whiskey. Few months like that is like a couple years in a barrel. Really delightful
