Replying to Why do so many people refuse to pick up hitch-hiking skiers/boarders?

Just curious why myself and several of my buddies have struggled so damn much with getting a ride from strangers back up a pass in ski country. I feel like hitchhiking has become frowned upon in society for whatever reason, and that really blows for people who want to ski a sweet line that ends up a mile away from their vehicles.

I fail to see how the extra minute of your day is such a burden. Maybe I'll tip you with a couple beers or half a blunt, who fuckin knows. You'll make a new friend at least. For those of you who often do, you are great people. But if you are worried that I'll get some snow in your '95 Subaru... promptly chill out.
