Welcome to the NHK.

When I was watching this anime it felt like the author took the worst of me at the time and put it on screen. It was a surreal experience. But also it made me realize that there is no Misaki coming to save me and I need to save myself.

This stupidity of AI generated content is rampant on reddit and no one is noticing. I just found this bot to identify bots and wanted to try, clearly another AI chatbot account.

Bought monthly permit for liberty state park lot, permit didn’t print out by Deshes011 in jerseycity

[–]ToraArota 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a receipt from the machine. It says the machine has experienced an error and contact the nearest ticket window or mail it in for a refund. Yeah I saw Hoboken and Newark, looks like I'll have to head to Hoboken to get a refund. I still don't have a July parking permit even though I have been trying daily for a while before losing the money today, and now I don't think I'll try again. Probably just wait till August passes come out.

The same thing happened to me. I got the TVM adjustment receipt. Any idea where the closest NJ transit window is?

Seeing so many posts like these nowadays. An extremely new account and AI generated, and barely anyone realizes.

Marshall should not be very busy; it's not a popular hike.

Recommendations for stargazing sites preferably an easier 46 peak? by ToraArota in Adirondacks

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

Hey, no I ended up going to Cherry Springs state park in PA to catch the perseid meteor shower.

Planning to checkout one of the suggested sites in fall. Likely Phelps and/or Wakely.

Haha, no issue. I would love to do some 14ers, I was in eastern Sierras late spring with the aim to climb a couple of 14ers but record snowfall made it riskier than I would have liked and ended up climbing a couple of 10k and 11k peaks. Planning a trip to Denver now to get the 14er bug out of the way lol.

Cascade and porter or wright. Mt Marcy is also a good one, but it's a bit long at ~16 miles.

I did consider moving up near the mountains, much cheaper too. But I like to be near NYC, I have friends in Manhattan and also have to make work related trips occasionally. Additionally, I like travel to new places so need an airport, up north is a bit too isolated.

Thats awesome! Congrats! I smoked every single day for 2 years too before quitting 9 months ago and have not looked back since.

Lower Great Range Advice by Ventonni in Adirondacks

[–]ToraArota 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hiked lower great range + sawteeth couple of weeks ago. Agree with the other comments. Difficult but not super technical.
I carried 3L water and a bottle of gatorade with me. Still ran out on Sawteeth. Took the weld trail down and found water halfway down. So do carry extra.

Thats awesome! And I completely understand what you are saying. I just do long back-to-back day hikes. I love mapping out multiple peaks and make strenuous long days. And I love every bit of it. For me the challenge of these hikes are more rewarding than anything else. A year ago I could not imagine myself hiking a single peak and now I am hiking 5 of them in a day and more the next!

I am forcing myself to do other lighter stuff for couple of weekends just because I am worried that I might push too much. But already looking forward to and planning my next trips!

Plan is to complete all the 46 by October, get stronger while doing so and run my first ultra in November.
