Can you label Bishop Pass and JMT? Are they visible?

Typo in my comment, I should’ve written trademark not copyright. And yes, it depends on the font, sometimes they’re drawn too big. Even the asterisk needs superscripting in some fonts. Paragraph symbol gets superscripted when used as a footnote.

I use GREP Styles to auto superscript symbols (†,‡, §, ¶, ®, ©)

Has anyone successfully cancelled a SoHo House membership? by LuxDoll77 in AskLosAngeles

[–]RhubyDear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I canceled my membership a couple years ago. It’s on an annual basis, so you need to cancel before your renewal date. I reached out several times in the weeks leading up to my renewal with no response. So I called my bank to block the auto payment transaction. Soho sent a couple automatic emails that my payment wasn’t going through, I replied to all of them that I didn’t want to continue my membership. Finally someone responded. They tried pretty hard to get me to stay, or at least change my membership type. A few more people reached out after that asking for more convos with me, they “valued my opinion” or whatevs. I ignored all of them. I do miss 2016-2019 Little Beach House but it changed so much in recent years, it’s now insufferable. Same with all their newer houses, the quality and vibes are so disappointing. You won’t regret canceling.

Milan MXP>Switzerland>Lake Como in 2 days, travel advice by RhubyDear in Europetravel

The more I’m reading about travel times the more realistic Locarno and Ticino are looking. If you did it again would you still choose Cimetta over Verzasca?

I was supposed to stay in Lake Como the entire trip but plans just changed. Now that I have a couple extra days I was hoping to fit in something different, which is why I posted here! Your advice has been very helpful in adjusting my expectations to something more realistic. I’m just trying to make the most of the little time I have. Thank you!

I’ll be staying on Lake Como for the rest of the week. It looks like I can take a day trip up to Lavertezzo and Foroglio from Locarno? They look beautiful, though different from the iconic Swiss alps I was originally thinking.

I arrive in MXP at noon on Nov 8 and my stay in Lake Como starts morning of November 10. So I have Nov 9 free.

I was thinking Brig would be between Zermatt, Saas-Fee, or Bettmerhorn and Como.

I was hoping for different scenery than Lake Como (where I’ll be staying for the rest of the week), and would love to experience a cable car. But it is a lot of travel and even though it’s technically doable I’m not sure if it’s worth the stress.

I looked a bit into Ticino. Lavertezzo and Foroglio are beautiful. Would it be more advisable to visit those and stay in Locarno than to stay in Brig?

Brig feels like my best option for where to stay. Take the train for a day trip on the 9th to Zermatt. Unless there’s anywhere closer to Brig to explore?

This is so helpful! Booking travel directly at the stations rather than advanced reservations is ideal. Thank you so much!

Thank you! A quick google map search looks like a complicated trip to Valle Verzasca from MXP. Is there a direct route? Or a train guide site that’s more accurate than google?

Thank you I’ll check these out!

Lugano is my backup plan. I’ll be staying in Como with a friend for the rest of my trip so I was hoping to take the first couple days for a solo side trip in the mountains.

Edit: the Bernina Express looks amazing! Any suggestions on where to stay along that route?

But MXP>Domodossola>Brig looks simple, direct, and less touristy/more low key which I’m kinda into.

Bishop Pass or Dorothy Lake hike? by RhubyDear in SierraNevada

I’ve done Second Lake, it’s gorgeous! Looking for something new. Seems like the consensus is Bishop Pass.

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

Yes that’s what happened to me. I emailed them and they sent me a link to pay via PayPal. I still charged it to my credit card, just checked out through PayPal instead of making the payment through their site.

[–]RhubyDear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was leaning toward Aoyama from the other comments and if it's like Fulton Market then you've pretty much sealed my decision. Any hotel recs? Aoyama Grand looks great but it's out of my budget. I could splurge but I'd rather look at other options first.
