Must ski, you sound terrified. But drinkers don't freak you out? Do you avoid ski areas that have bars?
As with any substance that impairs judgement, legal or not, there will be recreational users, heavy users, abusers and addicts. Think about how destructive alcohol is, and it is very legal.
I am not terrified. I have always thought tobacco and alcohol legal and pot illegal was a stupid differentiation. As for drinkers ...yeah those that drive and/or ski in that condition do worry me. I think my concern here is the party buses. There aren't tour groups running drinking buses to ski mountains. I don't avoid ski areas with bars, but I didn't take my kid into the bars either. I don't respect skiers that ski with a flask and I don't respect skiers that ski in impaired condition. As for all the problem skiers/riders described by Serafina, well yeah ... I avoid those like the plague. The difference is that it is not an either/or scenario. It's an "and". My concern has nothing to do with the law. It is about the party buses.
