     Maybe this is the new business model for ski resorts in the age of climate change: selling exclusive access to the handful of days that it actually snows? 🤷♂️

     ***this is actually hilarious, because if these folks kept track of the weather and precipitation there, Waterman has had years it DIDN'T OPEN because there was not enough snow, and when it is open, it's only for days at a time. 🙄

     Meanwhile the ski resorts in western NC make their own snow. 😄
