The irony that the guy who is so in love with HHH runs around bragging about his installs so he can escape from it all is mind-boggling.

It's more about outside.  No one wants to have to put a shall on at night in the middle of summer anywhere in new England. Ruins the vibe. We have plenty of other times of the year for layers.

....but those other times of the year are getting less and less frequent.

That's good for Kevin.  I think his love for the feel of toilet paper stuck to his ass is winning over any other type of weather condition.  He'll be relocating to FL before you know it.

When you're installed from April through October there's no moisture inside for the TP to stick to you.

The oddest part of the whole summer heat thing is it’s always about the nights.  Like you all spend so much time outside overnight.

DIT is asleep long before a shawl would ever be needed anyway.

meh, if it was 90's all day and I have to pull out a light sweater at night, it fine with me, makes it refreshing to be honest and more bearable.

It’s good that the indoor/outdoor thing was cleared up, but the bolded is where this still seemed to go off the rails.

Just like someone heading to the Rockies, your typical vacationer is not coming to the mountains of NNE to experience sweaty, 70 F nights.  Ironically, that’s what would ruin the vibe.  The typical vibe for summer in the mountains is warmish days with modest dew points where you can swim, kayak, hike, bike, etc., then cool evenings where you may put on a hoodie, hang out by the fire etc.  People often come up to get away from having to spend the entire day and night in the A/C, and instead maybe sleep with the windows open to get some fresh air for a change, or be able to sleep for the night in their tent without sweating their arse off.

If someone is staying in a hotel, having A/C is certainly nice, but it’s hard to imagine the tourists coming up to the northern mountains expecting the vibe to be thick, soupy nights where you can cut the air with a knife.  I know @powderfreak has interacted with plenty of visitors to the area, so he may have a sense for what they’re looking for/expect.
