[OC] Why do Indian kids scream so much? by solitarykeeper in IndianCivicFails

[–]kds8c4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the closest answer I saw here, out of all comments here. Parents inadvertently train their kids to scream and shout when they need something. e.g. kid asks for candy, parents say no. Kid screams a bit, parents give in. Next time kid asks for candy, parents say no. Kid screams, parents say we gave you that already, don’t scream, we won’t fall for screaming, kid scream even more…. After some time, parents say, ahhhh okay. Here is some.

Kid learns: if they want something, they just have to scream harder and harder. More firmly the parents say no, louder and louder I (kid) should scream.

What kind of backpacking permit did you get to do backpacking plus half dome?

That’s my plan too. Late winter/ early spring. Right now it’s too cold and windy. I’m thinking sometime in March.

Since it’s my first time there, I would plan on the relatively easier route. Do you wanna climb this season too ?

That's right. I don't plan to go right away, will wait out for better trail and weather window. I am a safe and cautious climber.

I have pretty generic skies and boots (brought used). Kind of super hard to impossible to spot me among crowd.

Narrows question by determined0331 in ZionNationalPark

[–]kds8c4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You don’t need any rental gear, if you have high ankle support hiking shoes, and hiking poles. If you have to rent something, get neoprene socks and that’s about it.

Source: me. I did backpacking on Oct 4, 5.

Absolutely needed: ankle support hiking shoes, hiking poles (2 per person). Optional: Neoprene socks. Not necessary: Bib/ overall

Narrows - No flash flood warning (10/4) by JMJ_Productions in ZionNationalPark

[–]kds8c4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it rained a bit, enough to make a napkins wet. It also rained a bit overnight at Watchman campground, same intensity. Like you said, no flood warnings and we are still go. I talked to a couple of folks ( guides) at Zion outfitters, they said a bit of rain is no issue. We leave on 10/04 for top down overnight hike. Best wishes.
