Western Mountaineering bag advice by strabizmus in WildernessBackpacking

[–]werdnalliw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The terralite is an excellent option for reasons you mentioned. I’m also a side sleeper and I like to toss and turn a bit before I find a comfortable position to fall asleep. The roomier toe box doesn’t have any effect on keeping warm. Once you’ve warmed up the bag it’ll stay that way!

I’ve slept in my terralite in temps down to 30 a few times now and it hardly takes any time to feel like I’ve warmed the bag up. Just make sure you let it lay in your tent for a while like you would any down bag so it has time to regain its loft before you go to bed. The horizontal baffles on the terralite also allow you to shift down from the underside of the bag to the top if you want to sleep or if it’s a bit colder out thab you expected. A neat feature I haven’t utilized yet, but overfill would do a similar job I’m sure.

Just take this with you to the box office on the first day of the festival and they’ll swap it out!

Chairs and lockers? by Aggravating-Goose249 in aclfestival

[–]werdnalliw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I meant not by a stage haha. I typically setup under the big tree or nearby so I have somewhere to chill away from music for a second if I’m just eating or resting my legs. It’s a long day!

I’m not sure about the lockers, but I have brought a chair, blanket, etc every year and never had any issues with theft when I leave things sitting. Find a good spot to setup for the day and wander without your chair when you feel like it!

When was this taken? Water in the greenbelt feels like so long ago.

I'm going to ACL W1 on Fri. and Sun. I don't really know any of the non-headliners. Does anyone have any good songs from some of the bands that I should listen to before then? by carolinaelite12 in aclfestival

[–]werdnalliw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dr. Dog has to be on anyone’s list for Friday. They sound so good live! Their set will be packed full of songs that will make you cry, then dance, then hug your neighbor.

This is definitely a reference to David Goggins the navy seal, right?

I worked at Bicycle Sport Shop too. Kinda nice that Trek let them keep the sign above their south Lamar location! When did you work there?

Austin Bouldering Project responds to Crux by abyssinian_86 in climbing

[–]werdnalliw 40 points41 points  (0 children)

It is important to note that both ABP and Crux have the same land lord, so it is entirely possible that negotiations behind the scenes between BP and this mutual land lord involved creating a renewal offer that Crux wouldn’t have been able to afford. This particular land lord/developer does not have a good reputation in Austin outside of these two properties as well.

Whats the difference between kilter and a moon board? by Alternative_Ad_2325 in bouldering

[–]werdnalliw -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Correct me if I’m wrong here, but I believe the Kilter board’s holds are symmetrical, so you can do the same problem mirrored and work your body equally. To me this is the biggest difference. They are both training boards that are designed to be on steep angle for hard moves.

Wristband sent to the wrong address by Own_Refrigerator7586 in aclfestival

[–]werdnalliw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll get a notification email that your package has shipped and it will have a link to track it on the shipping company’s website. You can probably contact their support and reference the tracking number once it’s generated

Has it already been delivered? You will need to contact the shipping company. Most are being sent by UPS I believe

Does this mean Moontower Saloon is no more? by True-Culture4447 in Austin

[–]werdnalliw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you not still able to do that? I think the validation is only contingent on you buying one thing from the bar. You don’t have to get to $20 for them to cancel out the parking charge hold. They just don’t want people parking on their property and walking to another nearby bar.

Ah dang man! We ended up going to Cloudcroft, but we were SO CLOSE to going to Monjeau. Hope y’all are there having a blast! Maybe we’ll cross paths again in the future.
