Having running water is kinda essential isn't it? How do you get around not having running water? Are you planning on putting water in? Does it rain much up there?

You know your shit. I once stayed at a remote resort in Costa Rica that had around those numbers you describe of full time staff living onsite 80 - 120. They had children who had been born into the resort, since it had begun in the year 2000, so these kids had never left. I walked away from it feeling like it was a little culty. Do you feel like the leader of a cult sometimes?

Amazing! and yes of course, Chinatown... such a great film that one. Nicholson with his bandaged nose is classic.

Snowmelt sounds like the go!

Good on you for helping out while Roberts away. Does the area usually get such a late in the season snowfall?

Yes running water is key. If you had drinkable/filtered running water that would be even better!

Was there ever a time in the towns past when there was water available?

The drilling sounds like it could be problematic at that depth. I grew up on a farm in Australia and we had a big tank that would fill up with rain water. Do you get more snow than rain? Is there a rainy season up there? Does Robert Desmarais still live on the land?

Perfect weather for this AMA!
