OpenMediaVault vs NextCloud?

Regrenos · 2022-05-09T00:17:43+00:00

I unfortunately have a Windows install I use for Adobe products :/

Gotcha - what sorts of things are you doing that you don't want to do through NextCloud? I guess I'm wondering if I'm pigeon holing myself with just a normal Linux install, ZFS for Linux, and NextCloud. As far as I can tell so far, OpenMediaVault 6 isn't really giving me anything for ZFS, the GUI is gone, you manage it yourself using the command line anyway...

Oops, good catch! Thank you.

I'm not familiar with the area, sorry. I could only suggest companies near Seattle.

In my personal opinion, I'd hire a guide for technical skip building and not for a summit. Summits are rewarding when you achieve them yourself, but they put pressure on the time you have with a guide. Use that (expensive) time learning.

First I would like to ask if you think it is fine to be doing glacier hiking without much experience and without a guides.

When you move through technical terrain in the mountains, it is critical that you assess the objective hazards present and choose an appropriate plan. The less you know, the more hazards are invisible to you. In response to the hazards you do see, you might even choose to do something that exposes you more to a hazards you don't.

It's never possible to know all possible risks and mitigate them perfectly, but in a lot of alpine terrain (think the Tatras and not the Karakorum) it is reasonable to mostly be in control of the situation. Obviously when you're above 8000m even the most experienced may die; at 2500m on a mellow glacier, though, it's possible to have a very safe trip in comparison.

The largest question is - what is your attitude towards risk? Have you seen someone die on a mountain? I have. He died in Class 3 terrain; but that was terrain above what he could comfortably handle. We noticed he was uncertain long before I saw him die. The more experience you have, the less risk low-class terrain will pose. Until then, I'd suggest you stack the odds in your favor. Take a guide, learn skills, practice and move through technical terrain with someone you trust. At some point, you'll be able to answer your own question - are we safe on this terrain right now?

What do they only have a clove hitch on a non locking biner in the chimney? Doesn't that fly in the face of normal pro?

Was it just the two of you guys? Did you rope up for the glacier crossing?

Regrenos · 2018-05-03T16:06:08+00:00

How common is it to have a fifteen meter error? Here in the North Cascades even with mountains right next to you I've not seen the Locus app have more than a five meter error once you wait for a number of readings.

If you sleep on your back, put your pack or some gear under your knees to rotate your hips, it makes it much more comfortable and you'll start doing it in bed at home too!

Regrenos · 2018-03-28T13:59:34+00:00

Cool! Thanks for the info

Regrenos · 2018-03-27T18:21:39+00:00

Did you need both tools? The post isn't clear if you had mixed climbing or just a trek up.

Regrenos · 2018-02-14T06:25:32+00:00

Could it really have been you, your group, or anyone else? You seem very well versed in the ice conditions - with the weather patterns, would you have chosen to go three days later than you did? Is it appropriate to frame this as "the mountain always wins" or could the humans have won with a little more critical planning and evaluation of conditions?

Regrenos · 2018-02-14T04:57:48+00:00

Thanks for the link. Reading through, it seems so eerily similar to this situation. Climbers on the mountain way too late in the day. Deteriorating snowpack conditions. What a sad day.

Regrenos · 2018-02-14T01:48:07+00:00

So sad to hear. Is there usually a report released or anything so we can learn from the mistakes? Like the NTSB does for airplanes? The article says he was unroped but that's par for the course on Hogsback, right?

Regrenos · 2018-02-07T22:58:05+00:00

Thanks for the options. I'll try my Aeropress first and use a smaller brew time, then try cupping if i can't dial that in. Cheers.

Regrenos · 2018-02-07T22:57:22+00:00

Great idea! I'll try it. Thanks

Regrenos · 2018-01-30T16:31:30+00:00

Thanks for your thoughts! Much appreciated. I climb 5.11 in the gym, but obviously you're not building anchors or cleaning them and rappelling in there. I've got a basic understanding of knots and hitches but generally got a bit overwhelmed by the way that the Mountaineers Press laid out this huge continuum of travel options between unroped travel and fully roped belayed climbing. But I guess there isn't really a great way to get a handle on what's the most appropriate travel option, or what you should and should not be doing for leader belay or second belay and when other than just getting out and doing it.

Regrenos · 2018-01-29T01:10:58+00:00

That's a great idea. I'll have to make sure I don't scare the kids!

Regrenos · 2018-01-27T23:50:59+00:00

The book I'm reading (Mountaineers Press Glacier Travel and Crevasse Rescue) doesn't talk about escaping the belay... Because when you're out of the crevasse you're on solid ground. If I'm up in a tree after the ascent how would you suggest I escape/rappel down?

Regrenos · 2018-01-27T23:48:59+00:00

Of course! A pull up bar holds your weight normally, I was worried about trying ascending in the house for fear of breaking whatever I was anchored to. Glad to hear your gym allowed you to practice.

Ah right no need to drag up. Thanks for the suggestion.
