weekenders claiming local status

alright... why do weekenders call themselves locals? they arn't locals, they live a few hours away in (or near) the city(s) and only come up to their cottage on weekends.

Sure they are still respected for being there eveyr weekend threwout the winter... but they arn't locals... they're weekenders.

maybe i'm one of the odd people who doesn't think it's right 'cause i've lived in this area for my whole life... but i mean, it's true...

anyone else feel the same way?

i'd say you have the weekenders that know the place as well as some locals and the other dumbass type so it depends

Hmmm, Im barely a weekender myself, so I can't really say. I guess weekenders can consider themselves locals sine they would probably know all the true locals. Maybe some status of local like local and true local. AHahaha

this isnt' suposed to be directed right at you em... just find it odd how there are a lot of people claiming to be locals but live like two hours away...

and a true local is someone who's lived in the area their whole lives... some come just for the winter months (or even for just one winter)... they're locals i supose...

To hood, I would guess 'local' means under 1/2 hour away, so the people in Hood River and Rhodendron are locals. But then there are the rest of us that commute. Hood is really a commuter's mountain. Hardly anyone lives in govy, but all the people who live in rhodendron and hood river know the mountain like pros (As do a lot of commuters like myself).

Last weekend took me 1hr 15 mins to get to meadows. That was sweet - no traffic.

local eh, i dunno what to say about that, i used to live up in summit county for like 7 years so I know all the mountains and town really well but i dunno if that makes me a local, we still have a townhouse up there that i go up to whenever i can so maybe i'm a local i dunno.

I'm about 1 hr to 45 minutes away from hood, so I'm not neccisarily a local I guess, even though I go almost every single weekend of the season because I can't exactly skip school on the weekdays. What's ur point exactly? Does it matter who skis at the mountain? I mean, as long as they're good and dun piss on u or steal ur seats at lunch I think it's fine whoever goes up to the mountain.

i live about 1.5 hours from mt.tremblant but i ski there every weekend and whenever i have off. i skipped school about 4 or 5 times this semester to go up. its not my fault i live far. if anything i think i desereve more status than locals cause i gotta go through so much shit to get there all the time.

Great, localism has hit freeskiing skiing. Being a surfer, all I am going to say is, stop classifying people.

^Word...why does it matter? As long as you don't go pretending that you own the mountain I think it's all good.

Not all of us live right next to a ski area... it would suck if you can't be a 'local' just because you live two hours away. If you're on the same mountain every weekend, if you've got some kind of a bond to that resort... I say you're local.

eh, i think it runs a fine line...i know alot of people that travel from resort to resort, so their really not a local ANYWHERE...i spent less days this year at my local hill then i did at other resorts

people that ski a mtn every weekend and hang out afterwards, party, ect are locals in spirit, sure their drivers licence says their not frm around the mtn, but hell, if its the mtn they ski at the most, its their HOME mtn, which is pretty much being a local, except no 7 day a week commitment
