Rock_InhabitantAnother reason for the more populated alps is the structure of the valleys. The Rocky Mountains are a much older mountain range than the alps, and they haven’t had glaciers for a long time. because of this the valleys are very V-shaped due to river erosion. The alps were carved by glaciers that receded only a few thousand years ago, so the valleys tend to be steep on the sides and flat in the middle, kinda like a U-shape. This means the alps are much easier to settle. There are tons of other factors like annual precipitation, making the alps much more wet, almost like a temperate rainforest in some spots. Another factor is the longitude, and since Europe is much more north than the US, the treeline is thousands of feet lower because of how little light the trees get in the winter. This in turn makes it very convenient to graze cows above treeline. Sorry for the wall of text I could talk about this stuff for hours
maaatttWhat's your favorite rock or mineral or both
Rock_InhabitantGotta be azurite. Looks like something from another planet
profa_212I have absolutely no clue when or why women's olympic track outfits changed to bikinis but I am not gunna argue
Seriously tho it can't be worth it to save 3 grams in fabric right?
GayWolf420I mean I cant really talk shit as one of the many dreaded CO transplants, but you know things are kind of back to normal when you're annoyed by all the tourists and traffic.
maaatttFor a hot second I thought you meant dreaded as in you have dreads
KalmarJalmarYup your skiing culture is better but I was talking about how the mountains look.
Cheering happens though, not as much but it happens. I like it that way, Sometimes in social media I see clips from the US where everyone is screaming and cheering to everyone, To me this excessive cheering sounds forced and something that people do just because you are supposed to do it. But that's just an opinion from someone who prefers to fly under the radar.
This goes into the same gategory as people hyping in the climbing gym, "yeah yeah you can do it" stfu I want to climb in peace.
armchair_skierI mean it kinda just comes w skiing inbounds, and if youre under a lift definitely expect to get chirped up.
Only gets annoying for me when im trying to learn some tech bullshit in the park and randoms start yelling at me before I drop in or after I fuck up the trick
SchizoSkierSalida is a cool place
ReturnToMonkeyI want to move there. If only monarch was better...

partyandBSsince monarch is pretty mid, salida is my current dream retirement place. of course, ya boy is far far away from retirement so that town could change significantly from now until I am at retirement age but its got a great music scene, river sports, mountain biking, close to monarch, good art, 2 hours to the front range, etc.
KalmarJalmarWhat type of dude walks in to public wc and decides to watch some bullshit sport with sound on.
BradFiAusNzCoCaThere’s a dude singing country music with a full setup in Salida’s Walmart right next to the self checkout. I’m from South Carolina and I’ve never seen Walmart get this level redneck lmao

maaatttSometimes things like this can be a sort of trick, thats true. but it would be silly to assume she's being disingenuous until you know. Most people don't like wasting other people's time either
>date ends abruptly by her boss who is demanding her to work tonight on some stuff so i go home
