This story got me thinking.

Thinking about the stuff left behind at the end of the season.

Do you think the melting snow reveals a mass of lost stuff? A few skis, poles, coins, cameras etc....?
I wonder if treasure hunters armed with nerdy metal detectors hit the slopes.

Dog pooh. The snow covers it up and when it melts, voila dog pooh, fresh as the day it was made.

I was just being honest.

Let's just say perhaps some dog owners are not as hmmm... Conscientious as others with the picking up and baggng routine and..... In the snow, it gets covered up and doesn't smell, so it is easy to forget it's there but..... When it thaws!

It's just my experience that's all

I know the kids in Sauze go walking under the lifts this time of year and collect all sorts of things. Cameras, phones, gloves, poles, glasses, etc.
I imagine there would be a market for amuptee skiers looking for 1 glove or 1 ski pole......?
