    2024: Leas snow than normal

    You never know. You might be on to something. All kidding aside. Brain storming. Solutions not problems. As a skier I would like to see less lifts. They take a lot of energy to run.

    VFTT group hike?

    Alot of comradery in those days. There was a common bond among members with the financial support of VFTT through joint fund raising which centered around socializing. IMO that did a lot to keep the tone appropriate and way less political. In other words, it was about hiking and having a good time.

    Getting back on topic and the reduction in snowfall hopefully in Airplane Mode there is less heat heat induced into the atmosphere and therefore less melting.

    IMO the ongoing problem of lack of moderation has been evolving or not evolving whichever way you want to look at it. I would say that it is entirely possible now especially with the potential presence of AI that much of what is done here could be bots. I have tried to get some answers from our...

    How Hard Was The Snowpack Hit Yesterday

    Definitely not a magic carpet ride out there. This from The RMC Facebook Page. Trail Report as of December 13th 🌊🧊 Wednesday’s warm temperatures and rainfall caused significant snowmelt at all elevations, followed by a snap freeze overnight. The sudden drop in temperature has refrozen much of...

    Based on Tim’s history he has that covered. It’s important to point out the problems. But solutions are even more important!

    2024: Leas snow than normal

    I agree with the facts of global warming given here. But throwing shade on those that don't agree does nothing to promote your cause. I find it farcical that those in the know feel that the ones that perceivably don't agree gives carte blanche to them to put down and suggest ostracism of those...

    What is your area of expertise? I know it has always been excellent for Nordic related issues. Does your realm of knowledge extend beyond that sphere?

    Playing that card again. Time for you to rock your grey matter a bit. You have been told multiple times from past moderators that having one's personal information as an Avatar is not required for this board. I suppose you expect everyone here to conform to your rules and idealities because...

    Well at least the newspapers use their perceived intellectual elitism to check the spelling on the title of an article reporting global warming before they try to ostracize their audience without actually knowing whom that audience is.

    I disagree. According to who? Where is your data? When debating on an empirical paradigm it is best to stay objective rather than injecting personal opinions. While we are at it. I will agree that data is manipulated to paint the scenario that the beholder wishes to display that best fits their...

    Homemade Insulated Gaiters Or Overboots

    This is an excellent product but not for the Whites. This is an over boot for full on glaciated or total snow covered situations mainly for high altitude situations. The reason being it adds another layer between the bottom of your foot and your crampons. Very cold and very high leads to...

    Most indeed thank goodness for Wikipedia. Otherwise potentially many more would be flogged in the town square by the self anointed intellectual elite. Also therefore avoiding mass ostracism of the plebs.
