No. What about some strait edge Mormon person in Utah who has a family and good job but goes to the hill to shred on his 1500 dollar season pass couple days a week? How is he immature?
If you have kids and a wife instead of taking you're dumbass kids to disney in the winter take them skiing out west and they might not end up fat.
Most of the best ski resorts in the United States don't have great nightlife at the bottom of the lifts I can't see the drinking/partying connection really. (Alta, Kirkwood, even Squaw it doesn't really pop off.)
Regular 9-5s don't leave that much time to ski. But then again there aren't many good colleges that have good skiing within an hour are there?
Its hard to get a good job close to good mountains in the US. But if you live in France, Western Canada, Italy, Germany, Switzerland, Austria etc its much easier to get to dope ass mountains than it is for most Americans. Just because our terrain can suck (see Summit County or the entire East Coast) doesn't mean the rest of the world doesn't have the good stuff on their door step.
