Gear left in warming hut

When I was growing up in New England, and skiing at places like Jay
Peak and Cannon Mt. it was fairly common for people to leave their
shoes, lunch bag, spare clothing, etc, in a corner or up against the
wall of the warming hut while out skiing. I had forgotten all about
that habit until I noticed the same thing still happens at Mt. Rose
and Sugar Bowl (but not at Heavenly, Mammoth, or Big Bear areas).
Does this custom still hold (or ever hold?) elsewhere?

Must be hard to carry that diaper bag with you everywhere you go.

I see it frequently, albeit less now than 20 years ago. There are
still lots of good folks with high morals and ethics. I walked into
our farmers market the other day, and a young girl was just picking up
a $20 off the ground. She turned to an older gentleman who was
standing nearby and asked him if he dropped the money, his reply, "no,
keep it your lady"...good to see!

I've seen it happen at Sun Peaks where the warming hut is also used by
patrol for top station. Usually ts people who are known to patrol (Note -
known to patrol does not carry the same connatation as "known to police"),
but I've seen other people do it.

Certainly here in New England. Killington has established a
"bag free zone" in K-1 lodge (KBL) but at its four other
base lodges it's still the rule.

Sports car world at tracks at non spectator races and test days there is
so much stuff left about. Keys in cars computers and parts left
everywhere, often you leave hot pit equipment in pits and trailers and
motorhomes left open. Never had stuff taken at a non spectator event. I
have had stuff borrowed but it always came back with alcohol or food.
Events open to general public a lock-down last year at the glen the
aluminum ramps for the series scales were taken. The boy scouts were
recycling you would thing that some thing shinny and 4 feet bigger than
a can would attract attention to the leaders.

Do they have diaper free zones? Do they allow you?

Unfortunately, only one of them post here, freak. Me.

I'm surprised you didn't say you had dropped it.
