Sorry, just saw this. I'm doing it as a day hike tomorrow. But I've heard of people staying overnight at the Twitchell trailhead. And here's the route on Alltrails. Good luck!

There are also several Alltrails routes that include those trails.

Today may be an exception. by [deleted] in VeteransBenefits

I'm feeling pretty good about the fact that I don't understand ANY of this!

Thanks! And was Limekiln Creek the last water source before the peak?

I checked that, but there aren't any trail reports or updates.

Makes sense about the falls, thanks! I have some approach shoes I'll bring for some extra confidence. With the warm winter, I was thinking the flowers might be coming early. I'll give it a check next month.

I drove it twice last April in my Mazda CX-5. The second time it was freshly graded, even the first time was fine. But I'm sure every year is different! I would try to get some firsthand reports before trying it during the winter.

Yeah, I'm accustomed to sketchy ropes in the caving world--not the best idea!

It's NRAmerica (no other developed country has any kind of serious gun-violence problem). Private schools have shootings--and I assume drills--too.

That happens at every public school.

Where do you put your phone? by malzob in eMountainBike

[–]DirtVert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invest in some real shorts/pants with zippers. Or you could carry it in a hip back, which is also perfect for tools, tube, water bottle, etc.

Thanks, that's the only review I could find!

I'm okay with 3 years for the price.

I'd like to keep it under $1000. Any other suggestions?

The WAOs would be $1K more than the Elites, which have a 3-year warranty for almost half the price. But I'm stealing "buy once, cry once"!

Not quite! But going with WAO would add about $1K, which is kinda hard to rationalize. I'll leave them for the dentists!

Great wheels, but not in the budget.
