    This “new” revelation seems so bizzar after watching the skiiable snow recede and disappear from the Rockies over the past 40 years… Did people not realize what was happening? I mean, we all knew it was climate change.

      Plenty of us live nowhere near any skiable snow. It isn’t particularly surprising to hear about, but not everyone sees the snow receding for themselves over decades. Personally, I find it bizarre that the focus of this article is primarily on the migration of a sport and barely touches on the ecological impact for all the species that are adapted to and dependent on snowy weather. We don’t need skiing to live.
