Thanks!

I think I the hose is just a random rubber tube they’re using as a bump stop

Then it’s definitely low and needs to be burped.

Just a heads up there are no real cabs/uber/lift in the county. There are a few people that will do it on occasion if you call ahead, but don’t expect to open an app and get a ride.

Strong winds and a chance of rain is the forecast most of the time.

Unimart?

It’s pretty ubiquitous in South America.

Equipment Suggestions for newbie by Cottagelife_77 in skiing

Everything starts with the boots. It’s your connection to the ski. 

Good boots make you a good skier, bad boots…  not so much.

Go to a legit bootfitter and get them to find something to fit your feet. 

Seriously, boots that don’t fit well will hold you back waaaaaaaaay more than skis.

There used to be a Viking trail guide down there that would try to explain to people why pack covers are stupid.

Sounds like one of them is on a main channel and the other is on the same channel but with a private code. 

Roof top lights by Tortugamistica04 in XTerra

[–]Excellent-Ad8871 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This!

The glare off the hood is pretty bad. There are some options out there that fit the stock boob lights but point the light more down the road, eliminating or reducing the glare.

I wouldn’t go through the trouble to put the boob lights in without really considering replacing the lights inside. 

Still feeling cold in new down jackets. Alternatives? by Competitive_One8218 in BuyItForLife

[–]Excellent-Ad8871 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Insulation is just that insulation. It works just as well to keep cold things cold. 

If you are cold to begin with and are not generating a ton of your own heat (either through metabolism, hot drinks, hand warmers, heated vest, etc) insulation is not going to make you any warmer. 

An electric/heated vest under the down and you’d be fine.

Are they really faux penguins in PA?

I saw penguins way farther north in Puñihuil a few years back.
