hey papa, nips is going go this year or next? and i'm working my ass off at mcdonalds for $5.50 a fucking hour (i'm 15). That means I will work like 25 hours a week or less so basically I will make $100 a week. This summer I will only make like $900. I will also work during the fall, and make like 800? I'm a snowboard instructor during the winter also, but the pay is really low. I'll barely be able to pay for COC on my own money. My dad did make a deal with me. If I get really good grades, he'll pay for a week of camp, and I'll pay for another. Basically, getting to camp is going to be tough as fuck, but I hope it's worth it!

he is going this year session D   minimum wage just went up to 7.15 - get a landscaping job in the summer. most businesses pay above minimum for good workers.

your an idiot too, get out of your north american ideals, and fucking visit the world you moron. If you had been reading you would have seen that he has been to whistler for 2 summers. Oh and by the by, poaching is the shit, and for an estimation of what it would cost to run a camp... lets see, 300/hr (which is highly unlikely for cats but i will do it for the sake of argument)x4 hrs a night, 1200 per week x 5= 6000$ price for lane for the summer lets just say 100 000. price for hotel per week lets say 1000, at 4 kids to a room. x 12 rooms= 12000. Food, at 20$ a piece for night meals 20x50= 1000x 4 nights. bus too and from, 500 each way for bus rental so another 1000. Coaches cost lets say 200 a day x 7= 1400 x 7= 9800 per week. I think thats everything...
So basically 6000$ for cats(per week)+ 12 000+ 4000+ 1000+9800= 22000 (per week) x lets say 8 weeks.
176000+100000(camp lanes)= total cost
so 276 000
and lets say at Coc its 2400 per camper.
48x 2400= 115200x8=921 600
so the total revenue would be
921 600
-276 000
= 645 600
This is a ball park estimate, but if you think these guys are losing money you are retarded.

and even if the lane costs and cat costs were more, they would still be making a shitload of money. So shut the fuck up you little bitches and stop hating on poaching.

if you did it right, you could get to the glacier with a tent and supplies for a week and striaght live on the glacier. you could ride anywhere you wanted cuz its only open for a few hours. its possible, but dangerous.
