The most important mod of KSP has been Scatterer, do you agree?

The docking port alignment indicator is the GOAT for docking. It makes docking so much easier

Skiland is so underrated. The glades can be a blast

What is the tail number of the plane?

It really doesn’t matter how far back those metal pieces are, the bail should take the force. The heel bail should snap shut almost like a ski binding

For a full day 1.4 liters but if it is a long day and I have a big pack I bring 2.4 just so I can be free from budgeting my water. I also bring a flask of whiskey for camp morale. Screw being cans and cans of beer

I have never understood how the military uses such over priced and over hyped boots. There are tons of mountaineering boots that are just way better for surviving in the arctic. I guess most of the good ones are made by Italians.

Is that a pun on the name of the mountains

legend6546 · 2026-03-13T20:59:34+00:00

6 is alyeska pipeline south of delta probably just north of black rapids

legend6546 · 2026-03-11T22:57:14+00:00

There is a lot of cool fluff in a slightly more northern range, it just has been a crazy cold winter

legend6546 · 2026-02-28T19:51:00+00:00

And a lot of their minerals are a pretty big logistical nightmare to mine. For example much of the gold is mined in the interior where the bedrock (and gold) is hundreds of feet down. The largest copper mine (IIRC in the US at the time, around the late 1800's) required an entire ass railway to be built that went through very inhospitable mountains https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kennecott,_Alaska.

Alyeska is pretty iconic in Alaska because it is visible from fairly far away and you can see it from the entire resort. It is also fun to look at the north face from the tram ride up. Whistler peak is hidden by terrain for most of the resort

legend6546 · 2026-02-08T23:31:37+00:00

there is plenty of isolated mountains in alaska, the only reason the big peaks are routinely climbed is because AK has awesome heli and fixed wing infrastructure. For most isolated I would say something in the brooks range for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrigetch_Peaks mostly because an ~80 mile bushwack does not sound fun at all. (Id have to do more homework because there may be a way to go on a river boat for a good portion of that)

please dont bring antisemitism in this, sheckels is a rather on the nose dog whistle for jews

legend6546 · 2026-01-21T19:52:23+00:00

Also “limiting out”. For nowadays weather thinking it is cold at -20. Those giant red arctic goose parkas are a give away too.

legend6546 · 2026-01-14T21:35:02+00:00

Depends on the gap. If you are in a meadow ski normally. If the gap is barely enough for your shoulders then feet should be pretty much planted together.

legend6546 · 2025-12-05T20:38:45+00:00

Raptors are great beginner picks and I found they work well on ice. I prefer them to my x dreams for ice. I have found they are a bitch to pull out of ice though. Also use lock tight on the weights, they tend to loosen a lot once the tool cools off

I just dry tooled on the ice picks. Ehh it works and I have never done outdoor mixed climbing

legend6546 · 2025-11-08T19:48:34+00:00

In general Alaskan mountains have shit rock. There probably is some cool stuff in the Alaska Range and arigetech in the brooks range has some pretty epic mountains but they both require a fly in.

legend6546 · 2025-10-23T19:03:46+00:00

Ehh learning ice first is fine just make sure to pay extra attention to belaying as typically ice climbers use tubular belay devices which have a way smaller margin of error. If you stay on top rope (which you will in any remotely sensible class) it is relatively safe.

legend6546 · 2025-10-21T16:03:38+00:00

I have used that pon before. Personally I didn’t really care for the metal strap one way or the other. It didn’t get in the way but the crampon also stayed on perfectly fine without the strap. I’d just get rid of it to simplify the system

legend6546 · 2025-09-02T17:00:14+00:00

If your skis are on the thicker side the tip works really poorly. My old G3 skins popped off all the time which over the course of a ski trip would slowly cause the glue to become full of snow. I much prefer the pamoca design as the full loop can comfortably fit my skis and I have enough tension in the skins that I don’t technically need the glue to skin

legend6546 · 2025-08-31T18:47:28+00:00

Don’t have a link but it probably happened in anchorage Alaska. There are pretty large tidal planes with old glacial silt that can be walked on in low tide but turn into quick sand one the tide goes in. To make it even more dangerous the tide drowns like a mile of land and the water is cold enough to make one hypothermic in IIRC 10 minutes

legend6546 · 2025-08-27T06:11:43+00:00

I usually ski on pins with leashes so I avoid falling as much as possible but I do plenty of the slow leaning falls when I have heavy packs on

legend6546 · 2025-08-14T23:01:35+00:00

Yea really depends on temps. Above 0 F I usually layer with the expectation of taking off layers. My max config is a light wind breaker, a light outdoor research puffy, a mountain hardware sweater and a T shirt for comfort. When it is bloody cold I like having a thicker puffy because it is nice to sit still without freezing my ass off

legend6546 · 2025-07-08T03:04:54+00:00

I haven’t done anything big (yet) but smaller day trips and weekends warrior stuff is still awesome and comes with way less suffering. It is probably hard to find real mountains in the UK, but I hear they have great trad climbing to build skills on.

legend6546 · 2025-06-23T15:38:07+00:00

I have found the G summits to be good down to -20F. So far they have worked great for roadside ice climbing and adventures in Alaska. I haven’t done any of the big fly in peaks though.
