I remember skiers bitching about snowboarders fucking up their ski areas. They were gatekeeping then, and OP is gatekeeping now. Put a sign up on the entrance if it hurts your fee fees so much.

Yeah I’m not a moron. That was my point. Capitalism is the issue. You can get your panties bunched about this place not paying a “living wage” but if every business did that tomorrow, the supply and demand balance would shift, people would have more money, they would spend more, and the owning class would see an opportunity to play invisible hand and raise prices to a new level based on the new demand side imbalance. As soon as that happens the cost rises for everyone, and those at the “livable wage” drop below the threshold.

Im not defending shit like this, it’s the terrible system we live in. But at the end of the day, all of us wage slaves making more just means the masters will be able to charge more for the fruits of our labor.

Mine too. Couple of dark spots on combs that may fade -- but if the points get rounded off a little more that just makes them more weatherproof for the next time.

My floor's got nice thick pack too - keeps them well sealed but whoo it's gonna whiff a bit when the thaw comes.

I've been wimping out on bringing out warm soaked scratch in the mornings and I'm paying for it - egg production dropped like a stone. Time to get my but in gear again.

While I don’t agree with entitled aholes, sometimes you just can’t fight stupid.

Got a friend to snowshoe beside you maybe and make a path for the walkers??

NEK recovery center in St J. has meetings. I’ve heard there’s a good one in Burke somewhere. But just go to a few and find a couple you like. Let people know you’re new to it and they’re usually very welcoming.

I’m wondering - if it’s lack of education - maybe a spray paint symbol on snow would help? A stick figure (walking) on one side, a stick figure (on skis) on the other?

I woke up at 5am yesterday to a loud bang, it sounded like someone dropping a huge book on the floor or something. I thought it might be a burst pipe but I checked everywhere and nothing was amiss. There’s a big spruce tree out front so maybe that was it.
