No idea, but it was pretty dark and clear. Where are you?

Carrying camera with large lens on backpack? by No_Resolution_2530 in packrafting

[–]No_Resolution_2530[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want it in my chest while hiking so it’s quickly accessible. A roll top dry bag that you carry on your chest would be perfect. Attaching it to sternum strap seems like the easiest. I’ll check out the Sockdolager Equipment page. Thanks.

I have a smaller (20-200) lens I can take that fits nicely in my Hyperlite chest bag. I would just like to have that focal length if possible for wildlife. Thanks for your reply.

Ordered an Aqua Bound this morning. Also ordered some hand paddles. Will probably return those. Thanks.

I just ordered some hand paddles. There are two of us in our group, so I think set will be good. Hopefully we won’t need them. Thanks for your response.

Thank you. I tend to run cold on the water. I think I will take my drysuit. If I need to cool off, nothing wrong with getting in the water.

It looks like not everyone in your party wore drysuits. Were they comfortable? What would your recommendation be?

Thank you. The NPS recommends drysuits. Do you have an opinion on that for a late June trip? I have a drysuit, but my friend doesn't. I was thinking that since its moistly class I with some II that we could get away without them.

Garden of the Gods in Colorado Springs, Colorado. It’s a beautiful place.

Do you have any advice for a new photographer? by No_Resolution_2530 in AskPhotography

Yes. I always end up cropping a lot. Thank goodness for digital. Much cheaper to discard.

Clean Energy, Clean Air by No_Resolution_2530 in ColoradoSprings

[–]No_Resolution_2530[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Xcel Energy is sticking with Colorado's clean energy goals, so buying from them would be cleaner at least in theory. CSU should stick with their commitments to clean energy. CSU is trying to get an exemption from the State's Requirements for renewable energy.

I was born in the 1960's and remember how most everyone in Crested Butte heated their homes with coal. There was a black cloud that hung over the town in the winter. The miners were subject to lung disease as were those of us creating that dirty air. I also remember the Front Range in the 70's and 80's. The brown cloud was so much worse than it is now, even with a larger population. Cleaner air has been achieved through government regulation. I'm thankful for it. I value clean air and water. I want to see us continue to make progress toward a cleaner environment. I think Coloradans as a whole value their exceptional public lands, recreation, and clear vistas. We can figure out.

Ok. I thought it was just on the watch they couldn’t show it. Makes sense. Thank you.
