k, i want a mountian just as much as ever one else but there are several points to consider
1. if we let people who donate ski for free how would be pay for the power, insurance, emploies exc
2.much like point one, if only ms members are allowed and all ns members contribute and therefor ski for free, there would be no money to run the place
3. many of you say no snowboarders, why, there are more of them than there is of us, many of them aree quite chill, we would need there contribution to run the place

just a few things to consider because lets all face it we want it, but its unlikly it will happen, if it does go into action thou you can count me in

We could just majorly lowball it. You never get what your asking in real estate. We could come in at 2 mill. :)

there is no way that 84,000 would do that, there are probably only about 20,000-30,000 that come on this once a week or more, so they're the only ones who ewould know of this. That means that it'd be more like this:

3,900,000/25,000=156

I wouldn't be willing to pay 156 dollars to buy a resort 1000 miles away that i would never ski at, so i'd say this is basically impossible unless you can get some big companies to pay the majority of the costs, especially considering that it probably costs an additional million or more a year to run a ski resort... Good Luck tho

I think we should do it. I live in Norway, but I'd gladly move to NS mountain and ski for the rest of my life for a small donation.

not to be a downer...but seriously.
We're not going to buy a ski resort.
It's a freakin web site we're all on here. It's not as if someone gets a million in a month or two. It takes several years, unless you win the lottery.
I would definetely contribute (as I said before) if this was realistic.

I will give up $30 bills for this, I don't even care if I get anything or not. It would be sick if we could get this thing going into somthing serious. We should make like a video with the best NS skiers and get some snowboarders in there. We could get some money from that.

Well even though I live in New Brunswick, witch is completely on the other side of the country, I would still pay 500$ like that guy said to own a share of the hill and get to ski it anytime. I still think its possible.

i like that idea get like Sebestian_P and other crazy good kids to be in a full length and sell it or something

we need fund raising not just giving money and we need to sread the word outsided of NS if we can get on the news or national radio our cause would be supported by soooooo many people

Wow this is one of the stupidest ideas I have ever heard. What are you guys like 16? Just give up now before you make yourselfs look like fools. Try for some realistic goals like making the honor roll or getting laid.
