Thanks in advance for that. If they thought the money was more important they wouldn't be putting up the restrictions. First things they shut down at the resorts still open are also the profit center,bar, food, lessons very limited. They care more about people than money. The stimulus money is intended to go in to your local community economic system FWIW... Help people who either don't have jobs (they are getting stimulus money as well) and keep those others in the community who still do have essential jobs employed.I won’t be dropping my stimulus dollars in those places.
TLDR; Don't lose faith in humanity or your neighbors because a infectious respiratory illness is moving thru our communities, it is not a retributive act of god, or a sign of collective ignorance or intransigence. We can improve our social systems if we learn from this.
Here's one for you.Trying to check out base cams of a few resorts but most are offline...did find one for Mammoth and it seems busy. But I am usually spoiled by no lines at my home mountain so 30 people in line is busy to me...
