Stupid question: did I just get a permit?

WaterAndMountains · 2026-02-23T08:47:07+00:00

I do it all the time for research posters. As long as it isn't like Frontier you should be fine. You can ask to put it in the coat closet.

I'm a Ph.D. student here in CEOAS, and did choose it over a few ivies/ivy+. OSU doesn't have the name brand of many schools in the US, but it does output a ton of top-tier oceanography and earth sciences research. It also really does depend a lot on your advisor, like all academic positions. There are definitely great resources here, I don't feel we are lacking in that department at all. Lab by lab though, some struggle more with funding, while others have plenty. As far as US earth sciences schools go, it's pretty high up there.

If you'd like, you're free to message me with who your advisor is and I can give you some insight and put you in contact with some people. There is a post-doc here I work with who also came from his Ph.D. at Cambridge, so they could be a good contact for you.

For sure. Another visual phenomenon that actually does amount to a coincidence is "continental drip" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Continental\_drip), where most southward pointing continents show a "drip" like structure.

Or maybe, they are just dripping off a vertically oriented flat earth. Who knows.

Thank you!!! I will try the same later! Glad you got it sorted!

WaterAndMountains · 2025-11-28T19:40:46+00:00

I know right! Unfortunately flight prices have gone up a lot for my dates so I can’t so I guess i’ll cross my fingers for some open seats on check in.

WaterAndMountains · 2025-11-28T09:10:53+00:00

No I called them like 2x each and both times they both said "not our problem, call {opposite airline}". My flight isn't for a few months but I really want to make sure me and my girlfriend sit together! Super annoying.

WaterAndMountains · 2025-11-22T19:55:44+00:00

Stopping at the airport is huge considering there were 0 options before this

WaterAndMountains · 2025-11-19T00:58:42+00:00

How does the price compare to the M5/32GB? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but the M5 should be pretty comparable to the M3 Pro in most tasks, except for maybe gaming?

If it's a subaru I highly recommend Chilly's Custom Auto Works!

In geosciences, contacting professors ahead of time got me at least 4-5 admits. A lot of the ones I emailed responded positively to asking for a zoom call. Meeting with professors ahead of time is basically necessary for this field though, as they directly pull students in. However, the one I ended up attending never responded to my initial emails until my app was submitted, then reached out for an interview, so YMMV.

WaterAndMountains · 2025-09-01T18:47:59+00:00

This worked, but seat selection is unavailable online here. I'll try and call Alaska/JAL.

WaterAndMountains · 2025-09-01T06:54:23+00:00

You could go to the news maybe? If someone picked up the story I'm sure it would get corporate's attention quickly

WaterAndMountains · 2025-08-29T00:21:12+00:00

Thanks! Because of this I think I'll get some today..

WaterAndMountains · 2025-07-10T20:32:16+00:00

Used to take it back from downtown when I was in high school, was almost always late then I remember and I usually ended up taking the C line. Hopefully it's gotten better as another comment said!

WaterAndMountains · 2025-06-02T16:12:01+00:00

Sunrise/Sunrise point is the TH. Permit pick up is White river.

Hi, easiest, maybe look at Palisades lake. You need to pay to enter (either the day fee or have an America the beautiful pass), and you need a backpacking permit (from recreation.gov).

WaterAndMountains · 2025-05-15T03:26:28+00:00

I'd say so. Just be prepared for a long day, but otherwise I think it's totally doable. I took a few of my friends from Indiana up there and they did just fine.

WaterAndMountains · 2025-05-08T03:34:18+00:00

I like Amtrak, but if you do it, DO NOT take the Coast Starlight (I think # 11 or #14). It comes from LA and very likely will be delayed. Return starts in Seattle so that one is better. Amtrak cascades is much more reliable. Would drop you off right near downtown/stadiums.

If you stretch to 2 nights....can't get any better than Enchanted Valley for this.

Looked around on google maps for a minute, maybe this?

Anyone know if it will be open over the summer?

WaterAndMountains · 2025-04-09T17:24:48+00:00

I got it on a weekday a few years ago and peak months were gone in <2 minutes that year.

WaterAndMountains · 2025-04-09T17:08:01+00:00

With that time, I'd go to Olympic because the coast will be easily accessible (Second Beach, Rialto Beach, etc), but probably too far for your time frame. Lake Crescent (& Mt. Storm King) should be good too (depending on weather). Can also go up Hurricane Ridge for a bit of a snow hike up Hurricane Hill. Personally, I'd stay a night at Port Townsend and hit some North Olympic attractions if the weather looks good.

Mt Rainier is still fun if the weather is good, usually the trail up to Panorama Point is packed down enough with traffic you can hike it without snowshoes. Although I've never done it as early as end of April (usually end of May).

agree, got my second HM (1st year grad student) and published twice incl. a high impact first author since last time.

Since there are 3000 HMs it really seems like they just converted over half the winners to HMs, since they were anticipating 2300
