a lot of people don’t know what a tree well is and most have not stood on 7 feet of snow next to a line shack looking at the top of a roof next to their snow machine. It’s a regional thing and to a lot of people it doesn’t register.

I don't ski, but live near Mammoth Mountain where a few years ago, 11 feet of snow fell in the town, in the town, during one storm, not just on the mountain ski area.

You know what it looks like. So do I. Folks in Miami don’t. That’s why I said “tree well”. They never sat on a snow machine next to a pine tree with an area underneath 7 or 8 feet deep like an empty bucket. I’ve seen moose stuck in them. The ocean is a mother. Mountain snow is Mother Nature saying there ain’t no easy way. IMO. Regards.
