Would you have stayed? I would have. It had food, power, heat, and isolation. Few zombies, easy to kill or just keep contained.
shareYep. I was almost screaming to Mother to stay there. But nope, she was focused on that stupid plane. And still they didnt get on that.
That ski lodge was perfect to stay until spring. They could have stay there even for a few years. Fish the lake. Or hunt animals. And there had to be huge supplies of food.
I'd be leery of that crazy fuck they traveled with, but th lodge did seem pretty much perfect. Probably too big to protect though.
shareThat place seemed unrealistic. Where was the energy coming from for the electricity and heating?
I'd buy them stumbling in and firing up a generator capable of providing electricity, but the whole place just heated and running without anyone there?
The only plausible way that makes sense is that the whole place runs on electricity and its attached to some actually working local electric grid free from the problems of everywhere else. Which isn't impossible if there was some kind of small-scale hydro plant which didn't fall to the zombies and which the operators cut off from the rest of the grid so it could continue to supply the surrounding area.
I mean there's other problems, like why does this place still have all this food and hasn't been identified and occupied by other survivors?
At least Z Nation kind of handwaved this away with some secret, well-stocked remote bunker with a nearly infinite fuel supply.
With this kind of world, and with so many predatory humans out to get whatever resources they can find, its best to keep moving. That plane is movement and it takes them far away from the awful location they were surviving.
Personally I would have wanted to stay, but I would realize that unless I had a viable army of allies with me then I wouldnt be able to keep the location if others found out its whereabouts.
