I actually need to give you credit for the workout I do AD. Like 5-10 years ago I posted up a thread about Masters and you actually mentioned this style of training and it stuck with me. I'm not...

Well I do the exact opposite, as I was a sprinter in college. I'm pretty sure I would've drowned even then if coach had me do a 1600.

I'm fortunate to have a 25 yard pool basically right at work,...

Cops got called in Grand Teton NP last Saturday because people were getting way to rowdy rollerblading on the 'closed to vehicle traffic' inner park road.

Seriously.

Yeah and it was 1:30 in the afternoon, not at night.

Fuck that noise. Firing and manslaughter charges at a minimum.

Courdry is actually pretty blah, the random guy seems alright and calls himself "the guy you don't know", and Dax's airbrush depiction of himself was awesome.

Its definitely a work in progress,...

Vibes man.

1:30 in the morning means they were fishing for a DUI. White people get that shit handed to them also but probably not shot.

What's crazy is there was literally a supreme court ruling on shooting people as they flee like 2 weeks ago.

Cliff notes: it didn't rule in favor of cops then so these guys are pretty fucked now.

If sliders are bad then I don't want to be right. Mine have saved me numerous times.

If they count I'm now a solid mountain town 7. Get excited.

Buy now before they dump the coal plant and profit!

I agree in terms of the fundamentals and who is buying. There is some semblance of underwriting and review going on this go round. However, with each passing day I'm more and more convinced we are...

Zillow now says my house has tripled in value since I bought it at the end of 2015.

Lot down the street was on the MLS for less than 24 hours at 200k and sold straight cash homie. At 400 per...

Yeah that has got to be the lamest cover photo ever. A rental hatchback could do that.

And a Taco Bell, but that eventually died but the Taco Bell Couloir still lives on!

COGS, like ten dollars in PVC and maybe another 5-7 for some spray paint and a couple bolts.

This is up there with those mtb racks that are like 20 bucks worth of square tube, some hooks from the...

Those ski racks have been showing up in Jackson also. I've seen several new Defenders with them specifically.

He kicked the tires on my friends place on Elk. Brand new, with a rental out back. They are keeping their cards close to the vest though, and after it took them 5 years to build the thing, I think...

My Wrangler scores a six, which apparently puts me atop the leaderboard currently.

I will say that I really only give a shit about the winch, bumper, and my steelies with BFG AT's. The roof rack...

I've apparently been reading this thread to much, because all I can think of when looking at that house is it would cost at least double the 265k to build that today.

'Kung Flu' got the Dave Chappelle stamp of approval as hilarious, so just call it that.

Dude, WFH was an absolute rarity prior to Covid, as in less than 1% of the population. You might want to check yourself that the world economy and the concept of work has radically changed...

I'm noticing a lot of confidence and complacency in a lot of people's comments here. They clearly have forgotten how they got to where they are, and it wasn't because they are special or better than...

Little cold water on the fire maybe?

People pay more for that piece of mind though, and the buying pool will be larger, typically resulting in a higher sales price.

Given today's current building costs though, if I were AD I...

Plus more POWAR! (in a Jeremy Clarkson voice)

I would argue that it most certainly does make the home more affordable, notably in times of duress like a job loss for a spouse or yourself, you have a kid, medical expenses, etc. That extra income...

I think the big thing with ADU's is they open you up to a larger pool of buyers, since the rental income makes them more affordable to more people.

I've been pushing every friend and family to do a Powell trip but just can't seem to get any takers. Crazy I know.

I fear the 5 minute turnaround time would sell me pretty quickly. I continue to...

I think we have a winner!

What about sleeping in a van in Ogden? Higher or lower class than owning a home there?

The level of entitlement from the inheritance is ridiculous.

OK, if that is the bar then we all fail at it. I highly doubt you use power perfectly.

Besides, Fall River is a coop and not in the business of shipping electrons around the nation to maximize...

That may be the case in WA, but Fall River COOP, which is the power provider for Teton Valley and not very large, is almost exclusively hydro. 87%, with another 11% coming from wind (and a small...

Woe is the person that inherits a beach house then gripes about the taxes.

Whoever said LOL at gentrification coming for white people was spot on. Pay your dues, you don't deserve special...

Only on a ski message board (wait maybe polo also) would someone who has made millions in real estate be trying to convince others they are just a normal middle class guy.

I say this mostly in...

Oh hell yes.

Wife was a national champ wakeboarder back in the day (INT league), and finally wore me down a couple years back and we picked up a 98 Sunsetter LX, one of the direct drive ones from...

Damn, well a couple pages overnight and we didn't get to finish our conversation.

I think the difference we have in our perspective on this is that you think someone who's house appreciates to a...

Maybe this has already been covered, but you really don't need AC in Teton Valley at all. You will seriously use it for like 4 hours a day, maybe for a a couple days tops, each year.

Edit: I see...

Your town is responsible for it's own decisions, and you don't deserve a discount because you signed up for something you might have buyer's remorse about. You can also have a say in reducing that...

Conundrum, Boise's tax rate is about 1.4%. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but I pulled that from their website here:...

You voted for that tax load Bunny, you sound bitter it didn't work out like they told you it would.

But like I said, that poor 40k tax bill holder is going to cry his way to the bank. No one is...

Just that 1.3 million dollar house puts them in the top 9% of all US households for net worth, and that excludes all other assets. No one who's worst case scenario is selling an asset for millions is...

OK Boomer. Woe is the person that sits on, at a minimum even in the most highly taxed municipality in the country (currently Elizabeth, NJ at 3.18% by the way), on at least 1.3 million in real...

If you want to be a player you can pay your taxes.

Again, no middle class person is paying a 40k tax bill just on their primary residence. Key words being middle and class. Upper class people, who should be paying more in taxes, definitely.

40k...

Please Benny, anyone itemizing more than 24 grand is by default in the tax bracket the left loves to say needs to pay more but then when push comes to shove, they try and cop out.

See liv2ski...

I mean, I get it if they were like, ok time to move to greener pastures somewhere else cheaper. Then now is the perfect time to do it. But just to stay put? Silliness.

I don't know man, I'd be more inclined to believe that if every little thing, notably the replacement of the summit lift, wasn't blockaded for the better part of a decade every step along the way. ...

If there is one thing ski towns have, its a large contingency of NIMBY's which basically guarantees supply will never keep up.

There is a relatively small, but a very vocal, group that has held this up for years because they like accessing Snow King for free by hiking and are ultimately worried they will lose this access. I...
