There’s some people in the BC Skiing community that are full of themselves. I’m getting tired of the selfish arguments that I’ve heard of why they should be the only ones to enjoy the mountains, probably some of the most condescending assholes I’ve encountered have been on touring gear. I done ranting.
“I have a responsibility to not be intimidated and bullied by low life losers who abuse what little power is granted to them as ski patrollers.”

Some are almost to the level of road cyclists.

Hey fellas, I broke my hip on the hill back in March and recovery has been coming along slower than I'd like. Do you have a physical therapist in Seattle that you would recommend?

In addition to a good PT. Find a Rec Center with a lazy river and walk it.
Then walk it up stream and swim.

15 years ago this guy brought me back from a herniated disc and sciatica so bad I didn't feel my toes for quite some time. Been through pt alot and this guy was by far the best.

Schneider Springs Fire Afternoon Update 8-12-21
Date: Tuesday, August 12, 2021 – 3:30 p.m.
Contact: Fire Information: 509-653-1468
Today: Heavy smoke continues to blanket the Naches River corridor. Residents and visitors are urged to be especially mindful of changing air and driving conditions on Highways 12 and 410, along with an increase in emergency responder traffic on the roads. The Schneider Fire continues to experience intense heat and growth, with torching, crowning and spotting behavior. More fire response resources have been arriving throughout the day. Due to smoky conditions, aircraft has been unable to assist ground crews today but will fly once conditions improve. Crews and dozers are continuing to build contingency lines where accessible. The majority of the growth is occurring in the western portion of the fire over Old Scab Mountain.
Evacuations: As of 11:15 a.m. on August 12, the Bumping Road and drainage was moved up to a LEVEL 3 evacuation. This means if you live in the area that you need to evacuate as soon as possible.
As of about 2:30 p.m. on August 12, Hwy 410 from Eagle Rock north and west to Bumping River Road was officially moved to a LEVEL 2 Evacuation. This means if you live in the area you need to BE SET. Emergency management officials are working on homeowner notifications.
Due to an increase in fire activity and with a shift in weather patterns over the next couple of days, there is the potential for additional closure orders that could include more of the 410 corridor on BOTH sides of the road. Plan now! Little Naches Campground and surrounding recreational areas and trails could be included in this closure, so if you are headed up for the weekend be aware that you might be turned around. No timeframe has been given for this closure, and it is dependent on weather and fire activity. Stay aware!
Please check with Yakima County Office of Emergency Management on their official Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/YakimaCountyOEM for updates on evacuation information. Residents and visitors are encouraged to sign up for emergency alerts through Yakima County: https://www.yakimacounty.us/2222/Alert-Yakima

AQI is up to 130ish in Seattle. Hopefully the winds stay slow, it’s look alright this week, but the hella heat won’t help.
AFAIK fires don’t spontaneously ignite. Do they ever really root cause these? Sparks from a trucks chains caused a brush fire on I-5 last week. I wonder if most of these are inadvertently human related vs. “natural”.

Maybe I’m late to the party, but just saw on IG that Cripple Creek is continuing their Westward touring shop expansion opening up a store in Fremont. What’s the vibe for you Seattleites?
More is better?

The Lot 4 uphill dog park says to fuckin bring it.
Honestly, the VAST majority of tourons will get out on their $3k setups 2 times per year, and both times it will be out of a ski resort parking lot, or at paradise. The days of easy access wilderness isolation are long gone in this area. So, you get creative and the treasure hunt for new stashes continues. I think 99% of outdoor equipment is way overpriced so i won't be buying anything from that store (unless on summer clearance), but plenty of folks will love the place i bet.

I'm sure the newly arrived to the PNW via CO via some other state with high paying tech job crowd will eat up that Cripple Creek shop. Who actually lives in Seattle these days? Anyone who has been here more than five years has probably already moved to the periphery and rarely travels into Freelard. I've gotten used to not having a brick and mortar backcountry store in the South end.
On TAY facebook they're debating whether Cripple Creek is the new "local" option because some guy originally from Oregon is running it. Compare to REI (founded in Seattle in 1938) or Evo (started in Seattle buy a guy from Oregon who went to college in Seattle). It's hard to consider a shop with locations in Aspen, Vail, and Denver "local."
It will be interesting to see if they can hang. Marmot Mountain Works was in Bellevue since 1976. Very high end and in a very affluent location (with free parking) and yet it went under in 2014. Backcountry Supply in Tacoma went belly up in 2010 leaving us with REI and Sturtevants as the only ski shops in town.
Why did they name their ski shop Cripple Creek? Cripple Creek CO might be the least snowy mountain area in the US. At least name it after a savage mountain range like Valhalla Pure.

Thank you fellas for the suggestions re: Seattle PT for hip surgery rehab
- I looked at Peak Sports & Spine but their Lake City location near me had questionable reviews.
- I will consider Husky sports med too but hoping to avoid billing nightmares.
- I like the look of Real Rehab Sports & PT and I found Nick's Instagram - very impressive. He's on my shortlist.
- Eastside Sports Rehab looks promising. I'll keep it on my backup since I'm hoping to stay in Seattle.
Union PT, Greenwood PT, and Real Rehab are on my shortlist.
If you have experiences with them, or have another PT in Seattle to recommend, please let me know! My insurance doesn't kick in til I start my new job next week, so I have a little time to decide.

WA Supreme Court may have just made it so you can park your beater, less than $15k RV anywhere you want indefinitely, so long as it is your only home.
Jim Lobsenz, Long’s lead lawyer on the case, believes the decision leaves the city unable to enforce those fines on homeless people’s vehicles, since there is now little monetary incentive for the tow company if they can’t auction off a vehicle whose owner can’t pay. “What are they going to do with it? Their tow lot will fill up with vehicles that can’t be redeemed,” Lobsenz said
