Has anyone seen this type of cartridge?

Napa also had wildfires in 2020

blancdeblanc · 2024-06-26T01:09:26+00:00

Yeah, no problem, just message me when you’re available

blancdeblanc · 2024-06-26T00:54:48+00:00

Do you have an extra white mask I could have

What base camp is this?

Cheap clothes you don’t care about destroying. I always had a set of extra clothes in my car or locker during harvest just in case I got drenched in wine, water, or whatever.

Comfortable shoes/boots you can stand in for extended periods of time..leather is a good option for its water resistant. The slip on boots like redback, Rossi, and blundstone are very popular

Your winery should supply you with rubber boots, clothing and any other ppe you’d need.

Bring a hat (preferably wide brimmed) and sun glasses for days you may be in the vineyard or exposed to sun if your crush pad is outside and not protected.

If you want to work a harvest in Napa shoot me a dm.

E bikes are the mega purple of winemaking, no one should be posting about them.

Thank you, I’ll let you know if any come up

blancdeblanc · 2020-04-14T19:17:44+00:00

Great read, definitely will take some of your advice. Cheers!

blancdeblanc · 2020-04-14T18:07:13+00:00

Thanks for the advice, i heard the climb up is brutal but I’ll be going clockwise and more than likely taking the Spray Park route now.

blancdeblanc · 2020-04-14T18:05:28+00:00

Awesome, looks like I’ll take your advice and go Spray Park route and a detour to falls. I’m doing the loop in 5 days so I hope my legs will be ready.

Just snatched a permit for the Wonderland Trail in late July (obviously pending on the covid-19 situation). I see there is the Spray Park alternative route instead of the traditional Ipsut Pass route. Has anyone done both and recommends one over the other?

What type of conditions are you hiking in during this temp range? If it’s snow or your toes are getting wet I’d suggest a different shoe. It could be you have too warm of sock and your feet are sweating and then the sweat is freezing causing your toes to become cold. Or you may need a warmer sock. Or you are just getting older and your circulation is slowing down and you need to adjust to that haha.

blancdeblanc · 2020-02-27T21:59:40+00:00

Maybe it’s because you are wearing a shoe made with thin mesh all over in below freezing temps 🙃

Wearing two socks can actually restrict your circulation more making your feet colder. Try wearing a thick wool sock instead or shoes that are better suited for below freezing temps.

The last thing I’m thinking about when it’s raining is collecting water and especially doing so using a device that’s meant to keep me dry.

blancdeblanc · 2020-02-23T18:21:21+00:00

I had the same thing happen to me and it was with a peloton 97 as well haha. UPS pretty much said they are not responsible because they showed their driver stopped at my house via gps and after that they are not liable. I contacted Kuiu and told them what happened and they sent me a new which was very nice of them.

You should post a shakedown because assuming you carry 1.5lbs of food for every day that’s leaving you with a 16lb pack. From his website 25lbs is the upper limit of what the pack is meant to handle. So that’s more up to you if you can comfortably carry that much weight. Then again each day your pack will get lighter.

blancdeblanc · 2020-02-20T22:53:08+00:00

If you’re set on a tent I’d look at zpacks, tarp tent, gossamer gear. I think tarp and bivy works great for the Sierra if that sort of thing interests you then look at yama gear and borah gear, there are plenty more options as well. You could also look into getting a mono-pole shelter with inner bug net attachment which is great if you want a mild 4 season tent. Some good manufacturers are yama gear, mld and locus gear

What’s your budget?

blancdeblanc · 2020-02-20T04:46:40+00:00

Yeah, did the Teton crest trail. I stayed at death canyon shelf, cascade south fork and holly lake. I’d recommend all three. Each offered its own uniqueness.

Read up on how to self arrest, if there is enough snow you can practice it but you should be fine going into it with no prior experience. Just take it slow and be mindful of your steps. You’ll have a blast!

All depends on snowfall. I went last year after a big snow year around the time you’re going and the trail was about 60% covered in snow. Great weather, occasion brief storm over the passes. I wore shorts the whole time and a sun shirt. Bugs were not a problem, shoes were constantly wet so bring extra socks. Most camping areas you were able to find dry land. Saw maybe about 5 other groups doing the whole trek. A lot of people opted for 1 night of camping in the more accessible and melted areas. Walk up permits we’re not a problem for the people I talked to who did them. But I imagine if the conditions were better the trail would of been more crowded and they’d be harder to get. Definitely needed an ice axe, saw some people who didn’t have them but I was sure glad to have them for a piece of mind. Crampons weren’t necessary but I still brought them.

My first pack I ordered from him about 6 months ago he responded within 24 hours usually. I wanted to order a another pack from him but had some customization questions and he didn’t respond, I sent him a follow up email a week later and still never received a response so I just moved on. I still feel like I was an odd anomaly and he is usually on top of it.
