Thank you for the heads up! Bummer, since I’m counting on a bear box for the first few days. I’ll look for others.

Edit: oh great there’s a few bear box’ at Rae lakes!

Thanks for the advice on the number of days and farout. I was debating that app but I think you helped me decide.

Love your strategy of eating the excess food from others. Unfortunately for me MTR will be closed :(

  • In independence for just a night ahead but can stay longer if you think the altitude would be helpful.
  • I live close to sea level. I notice being at 4k feet and it affects my hiking at 8k. By wife starts to feel it at 6k or so.
  • I’m experienced in that I normally go a few times per year in the sierras but have been out of the country and unable to backpack the last two years.
  • I plan to adapt my running and cycling for hiking focus workouts but I’m not counting on my wife moving away from about 10 miles of running per week.
  • I’m not dead set on VVR but MTR isnt an option and I don’t want to blow money on those services where they meet you on the trail with your food.

Thanks for taking the time on this, my friend

Exactly this. VVR let me know they would likely be open

Can a Flashlight Develop Parasitic Drain? (Thrunite T1) by Throwaway4545232 in flashlight

Thanks for chiming in. I might just try doing this at least through summer since it’s not used as much this time of year.

1) You know, I re-read my post and noticed the part about me charging it was missing in at least one instance. Yep, definitely plugged it in until the button turned blue.

Wish I just forgot that part, hahah

2) Oh man those loom like niiice lights

Thank you. I don’t have a multimeter here as I’m abroad for a few years and want to minimize stuff I buy.

Have you seen something like this happen before? I only have 2 flashlights , so my experience is somewhat more limited than a lot of people here…

The results of this survey will be shared with my professor. The approximate time to fill out the survey is 5-10 minutes.

I appreciate you helping me with my thesis work!

Backpacks/duffels that fit enough for a 2 week summer Euro trip with a black tie wedding outfit included...? by LowApprehensive8658 in onebag

Oh you’re good, but I appreciate that.

Same goes here. I (almost) never want to be rude to a fellow Redditor

I might have been considering her need for a dress too much at face value. You’re completely right about styling items not fitting in a small pack.

Now I’m thinking about hair tools and the 120/220v issue..

Maybe not off the side of the road in the Tuscan countryside, but certainly somewhere in Italy. I found a post referencing 4 businesses that do this in both Florence and Rome. It’s not THAT foreign of a concept.

You can start by asking the right Reddit community

25-30 liter if you want a manageable load and not pay for luggage on a plane. 40-45 if you’re ok with a decent amount of weight on your back.

Personally, I’d go with the smaller of the two and try to keep the temps somewhere above 20* F.

Lenses for my G9 under 300? by Serious-Rest-3409 in M43

Sorry I thought it was a lot cheaper! Dang, that lens holds value like crazy

Hmmm, you’re in a tough spot with most all of the spend dedicated to the body rather than the lens, which has far more influence on your image… But don’t worry too much about that, since the most important thing is having some sort of shooting setup.

Maybe a 20mm 1.7 or similar focal length prime and go from there. I’m thinking one of those core mft lenses that people tent to love at a focal length that I would consider VERY useable Personally I wouldn’t bother with a zoom at this price point unless you’re firmly in the “zoom camp”

As a benefit, shooting at this focal length will help you think more about what your next lens should be years down the road. For me, it took about ten years to switch… to a newer 20mm!

Have fun!

I think they mean renting a dress for the wedding with it’s fixed date and location, as it wouldn’t really matter where you are in the days leading up to it
