A resort that just goes straight to pot?

CannaCamp couldn't cultivate kush resort after national derision becomes a real downer
A planned pot-friendly ranch resort in southwest Colorado has been snuffed before it opened. The 170-acre CannaCamp resort touted weed-friendly activities such as hiking and fishing.
But a deal with the landowner fell through, and the marijuana-tourism company promoting CannaCamp announced Thursday that the resort won’t open after all.
The MaryJane Group, which runs marijuana-friendly inns in Denver and Silverthorne, announced that it hopes to find a new home for CannaCamp by 2016. Guests who already booked stays starting at $395 per person per night are being offered stays in the bed-and-breakfasts instead.
CannaCamp had a tentative agreement to operate on an existing ranch just outside Durango. But the deal fell through after the CannaCamp announcement last month made international headlines and became the butt of jokes on late-night TV.
$395 a night?
Way.
Here is his problem. Bad business model. No one wants to hike or fish when stoned. Provide mandalas, gazebos in scenic spots. Better yet “fainting sofas” in scenic spots. Don’t forget a basement well stacked with the big screen and video games. Of course I imagine most stoners already have that. How can you run a successful business if you don’t know how to market to your own customers?
You forgot pizza.
More like giggling while laying on the couch and eating cheetos .

Stop hashing his gig.
I wonder if there were pizza stains on the business plan.
Does that price include all the pot you can smoke? What a joke.
And Doritos.
It’s the perfect stoner’s business model.
The other day I heard the phrase, “Bud and Breakfast” for the first time, LOL.
You’d have to be doped to pay that price.
It just feels like we’re heading down a path towards Sodom and Gangamorrah. In addition I think we may be sowing the seeds of our own retribution by, essentially, supplying Iran with nuclear weapons.
We’re all on the Rectum Fitzgerald headed for disaster. Pun intended.
People DO want to hike and fish stoned. And they DO all the time.
Pot is actually more of an “outdoor” drug than booze but people have to hide it in public. So it is perceived as a couch drug due to all the scared people staying in.
It’s actually VERY popular among extreme hikers, climbers, surfers and skiiers. Generally any sport that goes places where cops don’t.
Spelunking?
The butt of jokes? Shouldn’t that be the blunt of jokes?
>>Generally any sport that goes places where cops don’t.
Funny how the odors changed beneath the run on my favorite chair lift when the Mountain evidently started offering complimentary passes to LEO folks for services rendered.
