Why yes let’s deforest the side of a mountain so we can run down it and possibly hit trees at fatal speeds. Im fucking glad climate change is making this bougie bullshit harder to do. I went skiing once, horrible experience. Everyone in the skiing lodge was a rich white asshole and it felt like I walked into a country club, no a hitler youth recreation club. If you own a timeshare let alone an entire house at a ski resort you deserve the fucking wall!!!!
Climate definitely doesn't help. Hard to do snow sports where there is no snow.
Southeast Asia seems to be serious about building up infrastructure for a number of winter sports so maybe in the future that will be less true.
