Why ski?

Because in a world of change, where all may rise or fall, one thing will be there, the mountain. Whether you take it alone, or with friends, while the world changes, the mountain does not. When you ski and hit that untity the mountain, be it in powder or in the air, or even a small piece of metal, for a moment at least the mountain seems just an extension of life. SO remeber, when all else changes, the heart of skiing never will.

The smart man does not know everything, rather the smart man admits when he knows nothing.

Ever heard of plate techtonics? Global warming? Erosion? The mountains will eventually not be there anymore. Over time the mountains will shrink, rain will wear them down or they will submerge below one of the earths plates. Or a huge earthquake will rumble them to the ground. Sooner or later global warming will cause the polar ice caps to melt and less snow to fall. Eventually the entire world will look like the sarah desert. The hole in the o'zone will get so big we have to walk arround with ozygen tanks on. Little kids won't be allowed to go outside because the enviornment will be to harmfull. The air will be filled with poisonous gasses and our houses will have expensive filtration systems on them. So expensive in fact that parents will have to work 2 or 3 jobs just so their family can breathe. Sooner or later the earth will turn on itself killing off the human race. By that time there will be no skiing, no mountains, no snow, just a ton of sand dunes and mutant camels.

amen to that...i mean they did say in 20-30 years that 25% of the world ski resorts will have disappeared due to rising snow levels from global warming and no more glaciers

I live in Dirty Jersey. I curse... a lot. I say -yo- and I say it often. I sure as hell dont pump my own gas. I know a bagel is much more than a fuckin roll with a hole in the middle. I judge people by what exit they live off the parkway. I can navigate a circle... with attitude. Two words-- mother fucker. I dont go to the beach, I go down the shore. I know that 65 mph really means 80. When someone cuts me off, they get the finger... and they expect it. I ride ice and i dont mind, 6 inches of snow is heaven for me. Im a Jersey Kid..

this is for 4skizzle, because that was the worst post ever.

Yell about global warming all you want, but the mountains are eroding and soon there will just be flat deserts? You mentioned plate tectonics, maybe you dont grasp how they work. first, eroding a mountain range like the rocky mountains would take tens of millions of years, second, if all the plates are moving away from each other (and hence flattening mountains), wont they eventually have to run back into each other? The world is round, they cant forever float apart.

As for 25% of ski resorts being closed in 20 years, first off, I think you made that up. Ive heard statistics about things like that, but 1/4 of all ski resorts in 2 decades? nope, dont believe you. Second, When people mention actual statistics about global warming and they say things like 'X number of ski resorts are recieving significantly less snowfall due to global warming' most if not all are located in europe where ski resort base areas are often around 5-7500 feet. Here in good old north America we enjoy base areas more like 8-10000 feet, and therefore are less vulnerable to such problems.

Last, but not least, global warming does not by any means mean the world will turn into a desert. Hotter temperatures would actually speed up the water cycle by my logic(due to more and faster erosion over the increased ocean size)and therefore create more storms, speaking theoretically, if the world were to warm up because of global warming, there might not be snow andymore, but it would look more like a rainforest than the sahara (I assume thats what you meant by sarah desert)

Thats my rant. I hate global warming fanatics.

great job i totally agree with you.....in discovery magazine they have a map and some shit saying that global warming will actually cool down the norhteast and increase snowfall amounts by 35%within 7 years starting from 2 years ago....it will warm up places in the west and europe tho....the east has to do with the cold freshwater hitting the gulf stream where our moisture comes from
