[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With few exceptions, people who ski come from families with some disposable income and parents who are free on the weekends.

Skiing (like a lot of activities) seems to attract a special class of people who try their hardest to make it elite. See: anyone on the East Coast who yammers ad nauseam about shitty East Coast skiing conditions and how much better it is to ski out west every.damn.time the topic of skiing comes up. Oh my gaaaassssh, you just don't even know what good skiing is until you've been out west! Poor thing. [/quote]

Have you ever been out west? IT IS way better just due to topography and snow conditions. Just like North (VT, ME etc) is way better then the mid-atlantic. [/quote]

More to the point, its the need to continuously point out to the local poors that they don't have access to good skiing and ask people things like, "Have you ever been out west?" 
Thanks, it is a pretty well established fact that skiing out west is better, but I am happy to know that you've experienced the creme de la creme personally and remind people every time they mention taking their kids to snowshoe. [/quote]
