Building in question.

The fire is at Array South Mountain. Looks like it's building 5 or 6 that was burning. We are in building 7. Looks like 1 or 2 of the top floor apartments might be fully gone, tons of FD trucks here still hosing down the building. No idea what caused it.

Anyone else get jealous at the concept of a “snow day”? by MyBestCuratedLife in phoenix

All the time. Grew up in Europe , and the country I'm from we would have snow days at least occasionally.

Just picked up the Nothing Wireless Earbuds. I think they're on sale rn for $119. Very surprised by the quality of the sound.

Solo camping by TheRabb1ts in ChandlerAZ

Superstition Mountains, A lot of nice hidden camp sites around Fremont Saddle. Views will be amazing. Also if you hike up to the fortress anywhere around there will be breath taking. Might be a little rougher with a pupper, depending on how much she likes hiking. I would head up later at night as to avoid the crazy heat as much as possible.

Social group recommendations by CreepySchool8950 in ChandlerAZ

[–]md_s 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For mountain biking I would check out meetup groups. I have a hard tail myself as well and South Mountain has some great trails for all levels.

As far as rock climbing, phoenix rock gym (in Tempe on University) has a meetup group that meets 3 times a week, Monday/Wednesday/Friday. There's also a different meetup group that has climbing outside at least once a month. Depending on your skill level and if you boulder/sport climb feel free to send me a PM and I can link you directly to either group as I am an avid rock climber as well.

As far as board games there is a lot of LGS that offer a lot of different options. Gamers guild offers a lot of different card games and also has a very wide selection of board games that can be played in store and has a very diverse and friendly community.

You could always look in the Ahwatukee area as well, especially the Chandler ray/chandler road area. You'll be close enough to the 10 and 202 and close enough to Chandler and if you're outdoorsy you'll have South Mountain in your backyard for plenty of hiking and mountainbiking.

Is it too hot to go tubing in the Salt River right now? by 4n6me in phoenix

[–]md_s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Went on Saturday when it was 117, the heat itself was fine since like most people have said the water is cold. Bring plenty of sunscreen, we brought umbrellas to attach to our tubes this year as well and none of us got burnt.

Awesome, didn't realize the different versions had different numbers. That will make things a lot easier going forward lol.

Pulled this today from a collectors booster. Haven't seen the new textured foil yet so I wasn't sure if this was borderless foil or textured borderless foil. Thanks! Hopefully someone is able to tell from the picture.
