We drove through that area on vacation a few years ago. 100°+ in Kingman was down to upper 60's low 70's and raining by the time we reached Williams. We stayed there and took the train to the Grand Canyon. I think I could live in that area of Arizona
Katahdin is special. I snowmobiled around Baxter on the Tote Rd. a couple of years ago. It was cloudy so I didn’t get a great picture but it was beautiful still.
He’s talking about selling to distributors vs direct to consumer. The cans that are sold at the brewery don’t go to a distributor. My argument is that 1 person can sell hundreds more cans than they can pour pints and there are fewer peripherals that are involved.
The real question is how sustainable is it to rely on just one line of business. People want the experience not just product.
Not that it doesn't suck but I think he was saying that they closed them in order to groom and snowmake on them in order to get them ready for the weekend.
For me, the bigger issue comes from tracks that get frozen into the trail. I hate getting stuck in frozen ski ruts. Seems like you are always wrestling to keep the sled going the way you want rather following someone else's tracks.
