Given that NONE of the closures are in your area, and given that even if they were you don't go outside any more it's weird, even creepy, that you've taken such an interest.

exactly. and lift the rim when you pee dammit (putting it back down, as always, is optional)

so glad this hasn't made it to the swanky new thread

janky panky?

But after janky's post they were one on top of the other

blinders on?

i just did. will be adding some other info, weather, closures, bootfitting, etc in the placeholders ...

Nope. But I think it’s okay for dookey to sell him this thread year’s boots

thanks for that tip. would have called you but i figured the dogs and the knee wouldn't be a good match. we went across the street above the pond


alliteration?? i've always been about the...

I can only assume everyone is out skiing Rose since noone has mentioned it's snowing at lake level

The Canadian Rockies just threw down the gauntlet with their 2021-22 thread. But it's like 1987 American.

We may have to face the fact that Sierra could be done. They promised to build back better last night at the fundraiser, but it's not going to be the same resort going forward. At the very least it...

I thought it was Lou Reed. And next year would be a walk on the wild side, so you better bring lawyers guns and money

That's why god invented game cameras.

I just keep thinking about dogs.

11 low angle turns

A special kind of hell for whoever pulls shit like that.

seriously?? like the Tyrolean Downhill?

steady snow at the base of the wood now. I haven't found a way on their site to navigate to the web cams but here it is
https://www.kirkwood.com/the-mountain/mountain-conditions/mountain-cams.aspx

This isn't quite the same though. Riding Ebbetts or Sonora before they open after they're cleared in the spring or early summer is a different thing entirely from riding them with a couple inches of...

I saw that too. Went to their web site and many of their cameras are down.

i thought he was being sarcastic.

Sooooo. Do you think they'll lift the closure at Kirkwood in time for this weekend's turns?

That's awesome.

As an aside to my bitching and moaning, do they use e-bikes at all? That would make that hike 30 minutes instead of 1.5 to 2 hours. You could bring a bunch of water and tools too.

Scare tactics and marketing, that's wtf. And that's IF it wasn't started by the only people that are allowed to be there. There was basically zero chance of that becoming a wildfire. That's over...

new sign, when i left it said the forest is not closed

for lepistoir, awesome boulder I found (one of the benefits of the other side of the highway actually being within the Scott Lake...

things that make you go hmmmm.


If it wasn't clear, what I meant was it seems awfully convenient and I don't trust this forest service at all. I am not willing to give them any benefit of any...

And the other ones don't work now as all Facebook (FB, Instagram, WhatsApp. their internal sites) sites are down. Ransomed??

I would suggest contacting the Access Fund (and Advocates for the West). You don't have to be a climber to use their form, but climbing is one of the things being affected by this most since there...

In the first place, a USFS employee is going to have to clean up the mess regardless. Now there is just less to clean up.

In the second place, what makes you think I haven't written letters? What...

or even racists

Apparently I have been using that word wrong my entire life. Grammarist says I should have used reactive.

I agree. But I'm not even talking about that. The closure orders, as they stood this morning (Some of the stuff up north by Loon Lake and west by Georgetown has now reopened) were 5 times the size of...

While I agree to some point, I do want it to atrract their attention I don't think there's anything up here except me saying I went to a place, found it was closed and went somewhere else. Unless...

Jeff Marsolais. I would also point out his quote about large runs in September and October in Eldorado NF is BS. The order came out September 30 so including September means nothing, and there have...

Judging from his allcaps reactionary FB post he is feeling pressure. Doubt it's from me though.

But how is keeping my trap shut going to exert any pressure on them to allow access to our public lands. I have no intention of letting any of the three foresters involved think they can close the...

I have no problem with anyone critiquing my behavior and I couldn't care less what YOU consider worth fighting for.

The dog walking thing was when LTBMU closed everything within the basin...

That forest was never closed. The border is 200 yards to the west and the road goes to the east. They just reached a little too far. There should be a term for that.

Why do you think standing up for my rights is rule breaking. And yes, they will find out seeing as I have already posted this on both the Eldorado and Humboldt Toiyabe facebook pages. If I can figure...

Carson Pass update. While everything east of the ridgeline that runs from Stevens to Red Lake Peak to Elephant Back is in Humboldt Toiyabe, both parking areas at Carson Pass are in El Dorado NF. No...

Venmo is also sending out rewards for being such good customers. Sure seems weird I have to go to divineusilencew.com to get it but oh well.

I generally don't as they rarely know. In fact they're not very good this far out

I dunno, that seems likely to burn actually. Probably not the hut itself because mostly stone but the surroundings are under fairly imminent threat

Didn’t have time so I decided to keep it local and go to the hemorrhoid Boulder near sawmill pond, in a non closure area
387428

So I went to Fallen Leaf lake
387634

there is no logic, only overreach.
Iwas going to go bouldering at Carson Pass today. it's in Humboldt toiyabe just above Highway 88. Then I came across the Scotts Lake closure. The birds are picking...

How about a hint, like when was the interview. Nevermind, it was from 2020

Kirkwood Meadows Drive and most if not all the base facilities and most of the homes are on private land, so thje forest service has no say. In fact, I'm pretty sure they could run chair 7 just to...

I don't see this order standing for Kirkwood. El dorado NF has already stated on their FB page that "There is still fire risk right now. The closure boundaries can be modified when conditions...
