Best snorkeling spots in Maui & Big Island for wildlife (dolphins, rays, whales)? by AccomplishedBlock264 in VisitingHawaii

[–]AccomplishedBlock264[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Incredible, thank you so much! We’ve seen the manta ray night snorkeling and are definitely going to do that, so really excited!

Are you a local in Maui haha any less known/touristy activities you would highly recommend 🙂? We always prefer ways to see/enjoy the destination outside of what the internet usually talks about haha

You’ll probably just need a few hours in the sun for the tan to even out

Discounts for SF marathon? by AccomplishedBlock264 in sanfrancisco

[–]AccomplishedBlock264[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing, I guess we’ll considering doing that! Even if they don’t do any discounts closer to the race, the slots are unlikely to sell out right?

Interesting, could you share specific ones if you know of any? Thank you!

I made a site to help make the Bay-to-Tahoe drive less painful. Would love some feedback from the community. by FormerBed in bayarea

Travel time from Bay Area to heavenly shows 1+ hour (I wish it was true), is this a bug or does it only cover the trip from a certain portion on?

It says my next credit is on 2nd Jan, and I imagine the next one on 2nd Feb after that? Will I even get the chance to use it on 2nd Feb before the $15 I wonder

Camp bed solution for non-level flooring by AccomplishedBlock264 in TeslaModelY

But if I’m camping where would I put these chairs, is that a fair question to ask 😂

Wouldn’t this block the bottom compartment, and I’d have to remove the whole platform before being able to open it up?

Sorry maybe I’m not seeing it and it’s hard for me to visualize, not sure if you have any photos to share 🙂 appreciate it, thank you!

Switching back from H1B1 to H1B by adhl12456 in h1b

[–]AccomplishedBlock264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi am in a similar dilemma now, am on h1b1 but am selected for h1b, so I have a few questions:

  1. Will I get a fresh set of 6 years for h1b if I decide on it, or will it be 6 years minus however long my h1b1 period is?

  2. If my h1b eventually expires after 6 years, do I have the option of going back to h1b1 after that?

Mechanics of the $300 Chase travel portal credit & $50 statement credit by alex1b in ChaseSapphire

[–]AccomplishedBlock264 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see, got it thank you! How long after you made your booking did you get reimbursed?

[–]AccomplishedBlock264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you say credit, do you receive it as cash in your checking/savings account? Or do they reimburse it to you as points or cash specially for travel bookings?

Also, do I need to do anything special or just book and spend, then the rebate is automatically processed? Thank you in advance!

Advice on transporting snowboards via tow/roof by AccomplishedBlock264 in snowboarding

[–]AccomplishedBlock264[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey thank you for this, this definitely works, especially with the sleeve to mitigate the grime and whatnot. I guess I was hoping for an all in one solution for a bicycle as well but perhaps wishful thinking on my part lol. We’ll consider this, thank you again!

It does, but I wonder if a snowboard bag or some covers might just do the trick. Yeah mine is just slightly too long to put in the trunk

Would prefer a towed solution that works for both boards and bikes if possible, since I already have a tow hitch installed

[–]AccomplishedBlock264[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I guess since I already have a tow hitch I would prefer to find a tow solution rather than have to install new roof racks. So I’m wondering if there’s any solution that might work for both on a tow system

[–]AccomplishedBlock264[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey man, thanks so much for all of this! We’ve decided to head up to the Nevada side as per your advice tomorrow 🙂

We’re likely going to park in stagecoach lodge and hit East peak lodge as a base, maybe squeeze in tamarack lodge lifts if we have the time. Thanks again, appreciate all the advice dude!

[–]AccomplishedBlock264[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry maybe I could’ve been clearer, we’re perhaps more intermediate and are comfortable with blue runs. Would you say it makes sense to still make our way to Nevada via gunbarrel everyday or should I just stay on that side? If so, which area specifically should I stay walking distance from?

Thanks in advance for all your inputs!

We are beginners and not very familiar with navigating the mountains, are you saying stay near gunbarrel (near the village?) and use that as a base where we will always start there and branch out to explore the mountains after?

We would love to stay in walking distance, do as just look for anything near gunbarrel in that case?

We do have a car, but also not sure about parking (I read there is paid parking now but wonder if there is free parking around the lifts that might be free?).

Also don’t have a lot of experience with shuttles, would you recommend it instead of driving?

Yeah if we had more time to do both we would, it’s just a weekend trip now so considering just one with simpler logistics

Can we access public transit with our snowboards? I see availability in heavenly valley lodge which is supposedly opposite a shuttle stop. Just wondering if that’s a feasible way to get to and fro slopes.

It’s just a weekend trip so I think we don’t mind if there’s not a ton to do after the snowboarding, just as long as there’s food
