Beautiful crazy place!

First off it’s generally beautiful around here!
Tons of things to do..mostly outside things, like you’d expect from a ski/mountain town -hunting, fishing, hiking, rafting,skiing,, etc.
For a “ski town” it’s relatively affordable.
It’s a weird strange place though....very hard to get things done...(construction for example) because the locals enjoy the amenities too. Very few full time workers.
There also is a huge enonomic gap....on one hand you have folks flying their multimillion dollar private jets into town in order to visit their multimillion dollar ranches...on the other hand you can find whole families living in 3rd world quality shacks..or old Rvs.....with no power, no running water & crapping in buckets!
The county tries to regulate this but is serverly underfunded.
So there is a ton of this going on in the rural areas.
