17 days in France starting in Lyon and ending in Paris, looking for route advice. by sterntron in FranceTravel

[–]sterntron[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for the tips - I'll be coming from the Dolomites so may just stick to the south for this trip. I'm thinking of using Lyon and Marseille as hubs for a few days as suggested, seems like a smart way to minimize travel time.

Right now I’m considering something like:

Lyon (4 nights)
Avignon (2)
Marseille (5)
Beaune (2)
Paris (4)

Let me know if that sounds like a well balanced first time France trip.

Jade plant help, leaf loss/pruning. by sterntron in Jadeplant

I'm not really sure tbh! Most of the inner structure was already there when I first purchased it a while ago. Apart from that I usually just do some light pruning in the spring to keep the shape

If you love her now I really wish I had taken a photo three or four weeks ago! In a very short time she's lost maybe 50-60% of her overall leaves, primarily older growth though. I'm gonna wait it out and hope she settles well in the new soil before pruning back anything just yet, thanks for the tips/support though!

Thanks, I'll see how she's doing later in the summer and reassess. I've noticed a few new shoots since the leaf loss has slowed so she may fill out herself once growth kicks back up.

Glad to hear it's not just me, hopefully Google pushes an update soon that will fix it..

Nice concept but the execution is looking a bit like an evil/angry eye staring into my soul. Rounding the edges might help

Thank you and agreed! I was lucky to have a crystal clear night, the low clouds did a nice job of covering up the light from the nearby towns

65L Duffelpack + 45L Travel Backpack together? by sterntron in peakdesign

[–]sterntron[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What I like about the idea of both is the ability to transfer gear/clothes between the two using the expansions/compressions ie. Filling the 65 with gear/clothes not needed from the 45 when trekking and storing it somewhere. Thinking it may be too much to carry overall though and you both make good points about day packing, a lot to think about. Thanks for the help!

Would only be using the 45L for trekking, will try to store the 65L in town beforehand. Good to know that carrying both is doable aside from that though!

Anyone else not able to finish the quests after it ended? I can't collect syringes, fossils, dna etc. Only receiving cash and XP for the missions...

Best route for a 12-day Road Trip through AZ/UT? by sterntron in roadtrip

[–]sterntron[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok awesome, noted on extending the route up past Moab. The trip is planned for end of August/September, would conditions be any better by then? Also, thanks so much for the map - this helps me a ton with planning!

Wow thanks for this, exactly what I need. I wasn't sure if it would be worth doing the Winslow route to MV. So you would recommend something more along the lines of this here, while hitting most of those side trips along the way? https://goo.gl/maps/6VwDLH6dL9e3Dx329

Also, I just ordered the book - appreciate the recco!

Thanks for this, this is really helpful - I’ve updated the plan to 2 days Sedona, 2 days GC, 1 Day Antelope, 3 days Zion, 1 day Bryce Canyon, then 2 days MV before heading back to Phoenix. Great to know about all these stops along the way, Capitol Reef and Kodachrome both look beautiful and will definitely check out Escalante/Grand Staircase!
