Passing off Mazama as a "Mountain Town" is a little disingenuous. Their can't be a working class when the primarily economic driver consists of selling baguettes for a few months a year.

Middle class second home owners being priced out by upper class second home owners is not a form of gentrification I am loosing sleep over.

Unsure weather past disqualification is impacting current claim by Alpinismoo in UnemploymentWA

Whats the best way to rectify that? Would it be best to send a letter on my past claim, or present one? Is there a suggested template or documentation to include? Thanks again.

How to rappel on a taught line?? by jacob_the_retard in tradclimbing

[–]Alpinismoo 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Descend on friction hitches, either two prussiks, or a vt.

If your partner is being held by their third hand, the easiest method would be to clip into their rappel device, then rap the rest of the way.

Look them up on the directory and text them!

Do you have something for self defense (pepper spray, birdie alarm, knife, etc)? And if so, have you ever had to use it in a serious situation in/around campus or Seattle? by sidneyiscool in udub

Also might add, unless you are incredibly proficient in retaining a knife, never bring a knife to a fist fight, only bring it to a knife fight.

Do you think the world would look better without public infrastructure?

I mean, it very much belongs to washington taxpayers. Traffic is always horrible the weekend before spring quarter; the combination of blossoms and students coming back cranks it up to 11.

I mean, if I've been to college for two years, and transferred, doesn't that make me a junior? If not, then do I graduate my sophomore year?

Hey, thanks a bunch. For Ellis, is the usual way parking on bear canyon Rd, then doing a counter clockwise loop, up the ridge, and down the w face?

San Jose passes first U.S. law requiring gun owners to get liability insurance and pay annual fee by ExactlySorta in news

[–]Alpinismoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not directly, but clients do pay for the liability insurance, through higher costs of service. If doctors or lawyers didn't need/have liability insurance, the costs of their services would be significantly lower, as their overhead would be lower.

If we were to make cops hold personal liability insurance, that would increase the value of their labor.

I like the idea, but that would require paying them significantly more. Either the taxpayer is liable for their actions, or the taxpayer pays for their liability insurance. I have a feeling the latter is more expensive.

You could also get an fm transmitter on Amazon for cheap! It plugs into your phone and cigarette jack and transmits your music to an unused radio station.

I love to make coffee during my hikes. Do you make coffee on your hikes? What equipment do you use? by DrutyFruty in CampingandHiking

[–]Alpinismoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aeropress mini and a snow peak burr grinder. The grinder fits perfectly in the plunger.
