But yeah, it seems white folks love Denver. Even from places like MI and OH, lots of young folks flock to Denver. It seems like a pleasant, improving city without any major drawbacks outside of isolation but I don't see the unique appeal.
You obviously don't ski or board if you think Whistler is the best skiing in NA. OMG it has some of the worst quality snow. It is beautiful but nobody who ski's or boards would argue it is the best in NA.
