      A better question is why hasn’t capitalism driven a market for mountain building for ski resorts?

      Rochester checking in - not Buffalo but sometimes we get similar amounts of snow. I love it. Snowmobiling is a thing everyone should do at least once in their lifetime, there is truly nothing else like it. I’m not talking the mountain riding through 10ft of powder like you see on IG or FB, even just normal trial riding on a couple feet of snow is incredible. You learn how to drive a car on it pretty quick, it’s not that bad and the cities that typically get snow like this one are prepared for the amount of snow they get except in the most extreme circumstances. Ice fishing, skiing/snowboarding - snow just opens up a whole new set of fun wintertime activities

      I absolutely adore Buffalo. I would live there anytime, if it wasn’t part of the US. It’s an incredible city.
