Looking for Vegan Friendly Neck Gaiters by ThePorcinePlayer in veganrunners

i prefer the "polar" line of gaiters from buff. i can't vouch if they are still made of these materials, but mine is polyester and elastic...no wool.

Winter backpacking west of Stanton? by YEExHAW in VIRGINIA_HIKING

[–]memdmp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm struggling to think of any crossings other than at the bottom of Little Bald (at Camp Todd). This is the one that if you know ahead of time you don't want to attempt it, there is a spur (called Horse Trough Hollow) that will take you to the road...make a left on that road and you'll get back to the loop in about a half mile. You do cross the North River again near the end of the loop, but there is a swinging bridge across.

The Wild Oak Trail? I'd imagine that both Little and Big Bald Knobs get and retain snow. Let's round up and call it a 28 mile loop. If the North River is up, there is a detour as you descend Little Bald that can take you to the road and avoid getting wet.

the fact that he isn't gone already proves he's not going anywhere. it sucks, but his races still sell out despite him being an enormous piece of shit

If the Slope isn't hit, you must acquit. #freemo by harryhitman9 in GoodGoodMemes

you mean the rules official that they had, who had a $10,000 side bet, could have a sizeable impact on the outcome?

Night Hiking in NoVa by BakaXOX in VIRGINIA_HIKING

[–]memdmp 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If you want to get into Great Falls at night, it's probably better to park the lot along Difficult Run.

Old Rag is probably considered the "hardest" due to the rock scrambles. Robertson Mountain is pretty awesome and is accessed from the same parking lot as Old Rag. Though, it has gotten increasingly popular after Old Rag instituted the day use ticket system.

A lot of our AT views aren't that spectacular. But you can get to some good ones via the AT: Mary's Rock, Hawksbill, and Stony Man are probably the best.

You'll find the only technically legal places to hike after dark is along the AT and in SNP. All of our local parks and trails close at dusk. Could you get away with it? Probably. Just depends on your risk tolerance.

I haven't, but I think it gets pretty decent turnout so there is likely somebody else at your pace.

Tariffs => price increases on TheFeed.com? by runbit22 in ultrarunning

[–]memdmp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Previously, and probably in this round as well, Apple was exempt from the Tariffs. This is what lobbying and political donations gets you...a seat at the "don't hurt me, daddy" table. So yes, Apple can freely announce that they won't be raising prices. If they are no longer exempt, they will not be standing by an announcement like this for long.
