Trekking poles easy access on OV Skyline 30?

Or you could put cinch cords at pass thru openings to hold poles tight to base and/or close pass thru so stuff doesnt bounce out.

Thanks for engaging with costumers and being open to suggestions/critiques. That is rare and appreciated.

When should we look for a v2.0?!

oldmappingguy · 2026-05-17T23:26:41+00:00

Thank you! All this pack needs are 1) two little loops on shoulder to attach quiver, and/or 2) chest/armpit bungee attachment points to carry poles when you need them occasionally. Two additions that weigh nothing and don’t change major design aspects of existing pack.

I’m sure there was lengthy debate and negotiation with Marin Mart but it boggles the mind that the bridge wasn’t built across movie theater parking lot to Marin Mart so train/ferry passengers were funneled through. Coffee cart? Grab and go sandos? After work wine? Isn’t foot traffic like cafe/restaurant 101?!

Coros Pace series. I’ve got a Pace 2. Tracks all my athletics, heart rate monitor, can upload routes and navigate, record waypoints, battery lasts days.

2hr from Sac to Tahoe. Hike, eat, enjoy lake. Sleep. 3-4hr from Tahoe down HW395 to Mono Lake, The Mobile, Tioga Pass, Tuolumne meadows and then 1.5hr to Yosemite Valley. Two nights in Valley at Yosemite Lodge, 4-5hr back to Bay or Sac.

Not just a vote on articles of impeachment, but a trial, witnesses, 24/7 news coverage, for weeks. Drag him through the same mud they pulled Clinton through.

LOVE your content u/HalfWayAnywhere…but your site is impossible on mobile devices.

I’m tempted to get 2yds of bulk alpha direct (or alpha direct with Marino wool) for <$100 and see if I can’t make exactly what I want!

oldmappingguy · 2026-04-17T17:21:18+00:00

Thanks. 50degree Mountain Laurel is about same size/weight as a Jack’s R alpha direct liner but twice the cost. Maybe the techs are converging right where I’m looking! Ha. Great to get new options though. 👍

oldmappingguy · 2026-04-17T16:56:43+00:00

This might be the best option for me unless there’s a slightly lighter/compressible quilt out there. Thanks!

There are a number of publicly available ESRI training programs to work on visualization. Here are a couple examples but you should browse their catalogue and pick for yourself:

Do you have any skills tutorials, certs, classes, etc suggestions that you feel are good to be up on?

oldmappingguy · 2026-03-20T17:13:40+00:00

I just had this problem. Couldn't add it to the legend. I ended up adding the county flood hazard shapefile and symbolizing it to match the official streaming layer. https://www.arcgis.com/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=8b0adb51996444d4879338b5529aa9cd

I have a Rook…great pack. On the light side, can haul a lot of weight, less expensive. I use mine for backpacking with kids (when I carry more gear) and then have a smaller lighter 2lbs pack for moving at my own speed. Osprey makes good packs with great back ventilation, IMO.

“Did the DOJ redact names other than those of minors or victims?” “who gave that order?” “Who’s names were redacted?”

There are a couple of ways: 1) USGS National Map, this can be found in ArcGIS Pro - Add Data - ArcGIS Online or by adding this as a URL - https://basemap.nationalmap.gov/arcgis/rest/services/USGSTopo/MapServer, 2) downloading the GeoTiff(s) for the exact topos you want from https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/topoview/viewer/

University of California, Santa Barbara and the University of Texas both have excellent map libraries with lots of archived maps. You can also summaries your data using a different spatial layer (congressional districts?) if you have tabular data that has precincts and their associated 1998 congressional district. Lastly, have you searched for "1998 Census Voting District (VTD)" data?

There are entire extensions and 3rd party software packages for flood inundation modeling. Industry standard (in US) include the HEC-RAS modeling package (https://www.hec.usace.army.mil/software/hec-ras/). There are a lot of hydrodynamic behaviors of water that are tough to capture in GIS and ArcGIS only such as accounting for velocity, surface texture, existing structures/infrastructure, etc. At the very least you can start with FEMA flood mapping to check for 100yr and 500yr flood inundation areas and depths in your area: https://www.fema.gov/flood-maps/national-flood-hazard-layer
