Man it sure sounds like Nelson has given you bad vibes. Fernie is a great town. I moved here 8 years ago and I am amazed at the people that move here and rave about this being the best place in the world to live. I’m sure you get alot of that in Nelson. I think the smaller town atmosphere is very positive. I sure hope that it does not give anyone the bad vibes you have experienced. I’m an old guy (50) with a profession and I always get very positive reactions from the young people in our community. I like to call some of them beetniks. They love to surf the mountain and play , listen to music at night around a bong fire. I don’t find we have alot of snowboarder trash. Most of the riders I run into on the hill are polite, respectful and having a great time.
I hope you do move here, it’s a very cool town.
But I thought Nelson was a cool town, sound like we have a nicer atmosphere.
