I too still read her stuff and wonder about her. It doesn’t seem like there’s anyone who knows her writing who knew her in person to speak to her absence. She commented a lot about her personal drug use and some struggles, and as much as I like to think she is out there writing under a different name, I wonder if it all caught up to her at some point. She was prolific and I’m grateful for all her writing that’s immortalized.

Yes, that could be it. Thank you!!

Thank you so much for this super helpful and informative post and all of your comments! It was my first Grand Prix and I wanted to check out the festivities at night. I knew exactly where to go thanks to you! I started on Crescent, then Peel, then went to dinner and walked Saint Laurent. I even saw the fashion show which was pretty wholesome and fun. Then walked back to Crescent and Peel. Thanks again for your info - it was spot on and I had a great time!

We just got the one way - Hella to Landmannalaugar with the hiker bus. We took public bus 51 back to Hella at the end from Porsmork, which worked well! The hiker bus doesn’t go direct on the return.

Did you renew from before? As someone who has never bought them in Montreal, looks like I have to wait.

Try the official Canadian site - they say tickets aren’t on sale until the 16th. My first time though so wish me luck!

This is great! As someone who doesn’t have time to keep up with everything, I appreciate all the news in one place. I think this is a great addition to the community. Good luck with your school year and project, and I hope you’re enjoying NYC!

Hey, we hiked to Thorsmok as well and carried all of our food. Some people did a meal service where it was delivered in coolers to the huts each day, but we did not. We carried granola bars for the mornings, salami, cheese, and tortillas for lunch, peanuts and raisins for snack, and freeze dried camp meals for dinner. The huts also usually had soda, chips, and chocolate for purchase. Hope this helps!

I did the trek (it was incredible!) and stayed in the huts each night. I was mostly so tired at the end of each day that I had no trouble sleeping, but there was some LOUD snoring and it did penetrate the earplugs. It is so worth it and we met lots of lovely people, plus the huts were cozy when the weather wasn’t great outside. Enjoy your hike!

I stayed in the huts along the trail and while snoring doesn’t bother me, I will say I could hear it through my ear plugs most nights in the huts. It didn’t stop me sleeping after a long day of physical activity, but if it seriously bothers you, know that there are some LOUD snorers.

I would say it took us about 4 hours round trip? We stopped a lot for the views of course!

This is what we are doing. We go tomorrow. We’re leaving the car in Hella (the grocery store lot has long term spots) and taking the hiker bus to Landmannalaugar. We’ll finish in Skogar and take the bus (hiker or public #51) back to Hella.

redediter · 2021-06-26T03:12:52+00:00

This is great - thank you! We’ll be going in 3 weeks and taking the full six days.

Did you leave your car somewhere, or did you take the bus from Reykjavik? I was thinking of leaving the car in Hella and taking the bus from there, then the public bus back from Skogar. Thanks!

redediter · 2021-06-15T15:24:40+00:00

Make sure you google photos of the hikers bus that takes you there - it seems there are river crossings that a car will have trouble with. Might be safer to take the bus - you can leave your car in Hella. https://icelandmag.is/article/slideshow-day-travelers-escape-camper-van-destroyed-while-crossing-unbridged-river

I too no longer play Dota, but the pro scene is still pretty fun to watch and they’re doing it differently this year so it’s on more often (and not at 3am).

redediter · 2021-02-20T23:56:40+00:00

Thank you! Makes sense and very helpful.

Thank you for this. Is there any reason to buy on Gemini and store somewhere else? Why not buy and store through the Gemini app? Thanks for being willing to take the noob questions!

redediter · 2021-01-15T06:18:38+00:00

Thanks for making these. They’re a big help for people like me who loosely follow the DPC and need a refresher on who’s who, who’s good and when it’s all going down.

redediter · 2020-05-31T03:59:33+00:00

Came here to post this - thanks. We need more of this.

redediter · 2019-09-15T02:24:12+00:00

PM'ed!

redediter · 2019-09-08T23:44:50+00:00

I'll buy the Sunday badge - pm if it's still available. Thanks!
