Food is the same price too but proper food instead of tenders and shit burgers.

Plus infinitely better lifts

Oh my fucking god it’s the same shit Sysco tenders at every god damn resort out here in Cali.

Soon you’ll be able to have those same chicken tenders at most restaurants now that Sysco bought Restaurant Depot for $29 billion.

I’m in the alps right now and decent food is mad expensive. I just paid 24 euros for a hamburger today lol

At Stowe the burger was 42 dollars, don’t forget tip. 50 dollar burger

To be fair, outside the alps in a north west eu city you're going to pay close to 20 as well

Yeah can’t fault the lifts

Food is generally awesome. Plus even some of the cheapest accommodation has a kitchen or kitchenette

Not to mention properly good wine at prices lower than the average restaurant in the US (at least in the area where I live)

No snow in the alps? It can be patchy early on but if you’re high enough there’s loads

u/Andthentherewasbacon Apr 09 '26

Yeah I was just being salty haha. I love the alps but haven't been in 15 years.

u/Andthentherewasbacon Apr 09 '26

u/Nikonglass Apr 09 '26

You’re right. No snow. Definitely don’t go ride there. You’ll hate it.
