for the skinners and maybe to pay their groomers for another paycheck?
Why should I keep supporting businesses that are open? Obviously the ones that are open currently do not care about their employee's wellbeing otherwise they would also be closed.
If you are not closed right now and are not a supermarket or gas station, you do not deserve my money.
And don't argue "But if the businesses aren't open, hourly-workers will be unemployed. True, that's part of the problem. Everyone deserves paid sick time in this country (including myself--I get no sick time)." I don't support this foolishness of making minimum wage people come in with no paid sick time just to "support struggling businesses".
People first, economy second. End of rant.

Maybe "get" a new job.
My guess is they are using the cats to help strip the hill of all the operations stuff that is still there and are putting the tiller down. They are not grooming for the sake of grooming or for the skinners.
That's what I was thinking as well...
If small businesses close and go out of business cause of this, there will be less jobs with the benefits you say every employer should provide

Gang we are all in the same boat. A few industries will be able to capitalize on the fear, but guaranteed that growth is negative.
When the season ends many lifties and low wage earners go on unemployment. At my home mountain, those I spoke to are ok with the end of the season.

Boston and Cambridge just shut down Inspectional services and all Construction projects. I guess I can go home now. Nothing to do.
I had not heard about Cambridge. It will be statewide by tomorrow.

That's cool and I would have liked to have seen it be good the whole 2021 season. I'll get over it and hope we get a ton of snow early next year.
Also, wont ME still be closed? If so that's another bummer. I don't go up there until after ME opens so I get to ski both mountains.
also bummed as I was going to go this coming weekend. Our last big trip for the year.
I agree with the decision, lets hope we get a reopening or a kick ass year next year!

what about the trucking companies? The producers of food, the people who make the packaging for food, The company that fixes the machines that produce the packaging and food? Just to name a few. All business is connected in the long run and it isn't easy just saying only supermarkets and gas stations should be open...

One of my Best friends moved to Squaw this year from Sunday River. I can't imagine how frustrating it has been for him. They skied Mt Rose Sunday and Homewood is still open but WTF.
