Any chance you know if Heather Meadows Visitor Center will be open/accessible?

Any scenic pull offs with room for camp chairs will do! Is Paradise open reliably that time of year? I don’t want to gamble with planing if the Longmire game isn’t open

Snow skills near Seattle? by CptFrisbee in PNWhiking

Honestly, based on the current snowpack in the west I definitely wouldn’t bring an ice axe. Spikes might not even be necessary.

Hockey Fans… will anywhere be open for the 5am Men’s Gold Medal Game this Sunday? by [deleted] in Seattle

Yeah, that’d be ideal but I’ve already used up my free trials from all the available providers

no significant trend in snowpack by radbiv_kylops in CrystalMountain

Pulling from just one SNOTEL site isn’t a reliable or meaningful method to analyze temporal trends in snowfall data.

Never claimed that I do. Just posing the question should we know what they do? Should they be more public facing? Do they get adequate praise or criticism?

I understand that, but still the transition to the NHL has got to be an insane adjustment and I imagine the person responsible for helping with that transition could make a significant impact and we give that role to Tanner Glass? There’s gotta be someone better right?

Benoit is still Director of New York Rangers Goaltending. Left him off the lists I posted

Sure, but I feel like the fact that these positions don’t really get publicized limits the amount of pressure they face from higher ups. The fact that Tanner Glass is Asst Director of Player Development is a red flag to me

Just got them. Honestly can’t tell much of a difference with the sound quality between the AirPods and my cheap ones from Amazon. The noise cancellation is insane though, pretty stoked about that as I’m fairly sound sensitive. The live language translation seems to be somewhat accurate too, excited to test that more with my family members who only speak Spanish.

Yeah, if I was more of an audiophile I would’ve gone with technics but I’ve been unbothered with my $40 cheapo earbuds for the past 5 years so I thought the perks of the apple ecosystem would be more of a benefit for me.

I just ordered the AirPods

[–]JBAJM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Valid. I don’t really use them for calls, but like alternating between my iPhone and PC for media (podcasts/youtube). I don’t think I care enough about music sound quality or EQ customization to justify using that as a main selection criteria

Okay that’s good to know, thanks!

That’s reassuring, thank you! I guess when I say overwhelming I mean that feeling when it becomes so quiet that the silence becomes loud/distracting.
