In seriousness though, how does it compare in what sense? What specifically? Schooling? Job market? Cost of living? Political leanings? Climate and culture? You’re just gonna get a bunch of wise-ass answers like mine if you ask such vague questions here. Vermonters love to be wise-asses

You live in a relatively rural part of vermont. Sometimes we gotta do things the hard way. Grab a couple shovels and get to work

I’d recommend you not go to REI. You’ll get a FAR better experience and end result at a smaller, non-corporate shop like Pinnacle in Stowe

Sheep farming. VT used to be almost entirely clean cut of forests. They regrew. That’s why the rock walls are always in the woods. Boom, your story is done. You’re welcome

Low level of competition, lack of competitiveness, inability to recruit as well, inability to hire more qualified coaches. That’s all massively detrimental to the collegiate athlete experience. This isn’t a participation league, it’s collegiate athletics. How is this not an issue?
