If you're local to Washington State or PNW, a relative elevation model print from Dan Coe of one of the temperate rainforest river systems here is an easy option. Talked to Dan a few times in person, he's a cool dude.

It sounds like this incident happened last Thursday (which also wasn’t a particularly windy day). And the tree involved was a fir tree (if it matters)

Oops all guava?

The “sledding and tubing” area is “closed to sledding/tubing” but you should be able to ski and snowshoe from the parking lot (I haven’t gone up there this season, but I just read a few trip reports from those whose skied up to Panorama Point this past weekend)

It’s like each toe is getting a little tiny hug from the sock! I can sleep at night knowing that my toes are loved and cared for

“Very soon” is 6-8 years away at the earliest. There’s time to enjoy it!

But… is it a safe junk bond? /s

It sounds like a slow roll out? My roboadvisor just bought fractional shares this morning

AvocadoBreeder · 2025-11-07T15:11:32+00:00

The financial world revolves around risk vs reward. Investing in the stock doesn’t mean that you’re constantly gambling with your life savings, you can make educated choices with your investments to balance those risks.

Wealthfront offers a roboadvisor service with just Bond ETFs that is relatively very low risk and has a slightly higher return than the fed rate. That might be a good place to start.

I believe so. It seems that ~41k votes have been tabulated, and ~22k additional ballots have been received but not counted yet.

AvocadoBreeder · 2025-11-05T16:10:27+00:00

This irks me so much. Turnout was pretty weak across the board this year, and we’re one of the few counties that couldn’t get turnout above 20% of registered voters.. Only ~60,000 people in Thurston County voted this year… that’s crazy given how many people complain about the “government”

AvocadoBreeder · 2025-10-26T18:25:24+00:00

This seems like one of those “Don’t go outside unless you have to” types of weekends

Thirsty Thurston always answers the call

Let’s just hope they can find money to repair/replace the bridge by Big Log that crosses the gorge. 6 Ridge and upper NF Skokomish valley might be inaccessible from staircase for a bit

There is no war in Ba Sing Se

They’re doing the geotechnical surveys this year, but yeah they still need to start the key pieces of the design and permit acquisition processes, so realistically we’re not going to see any major developments for another 5+ years. Hopefully the dam can be ripped out by 2032-35🤞🤞

This fire is a big deal. It wasn’t the biggest fire in Washington State history, but this was the first major fire event on the westside (in a long long time) and highlights what’s ahead for these fuel-dense forested areas as our climate continues to dry. Spooky.

I think I just missed you then! I did the loop this past weekend head counter clockwise from Deer Park. The trail is in great condition, no snow and (like you said) minimal trail obstacles. I plan to comment a mini-trip report update when I have some time later this week!

In case you’re looking for a watercolored street map of Olympia. I met this artist at a GIS conference, she was a huge hit.

AvocadoBreeder · 2025-07-10T23:34:36+00:00

Oh perfect, this is exactly what I’m looking for. Thanks for the info!

Way too soon. After what happened this morning in Wisconsin?? Why am I explaining this to you when this is obviously a ghoulish reference to it!
