    Belleayre Conditions

    There aren't really any L2s after 87 except for one hotel / restaurant about 20 minutes east of Belleayre. Obviously lots of Tesla chargers around near Kingston and south. Apparently in some plan they will be installing L2s as I ask every year or so. I can't even find a good place to stealth...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    And do you have a so-called time of use plan? One should be available. For example, from 10 pm to 6 am, my utility charges 25% of what it charges from 3 to 7 pm. So, I don't charge from 3-7 p.m. If I paid off tap, filling up a Rivian (massive battery) would cost like $10.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Life is nicer when we slow down. Sometimes we have to go slow to go fast.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Harv! Expecting you to evaluate mid week at Gore - some seem to love, some seem to complain here how much is open mid week. Want the unfiiltered scoop (from an admitted Gore fan - you). Glad to see you are back in action.

    Did they finish whatever expansion down below at Discovery that they were working on last year?

    Belleayre Conditions

    Woah - overlook under construction. I am behind, and no bueno. Did they get the monster addition finished for discovery, and is it any good?

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    Fair enough! I just meant that I have felt that Gore and Belle snow reports have gone way down hill since the teens. No pun intended. Have not focused much on WF just do to geography, but yes, getting em out early is good.

    Gore Mountain Conditions

    I feel like at some point (8 years ago) it was accurate. Belleayre, which I am a fan of, has gotten terrible with the trail report. They list things as groomed when it could have been groomed a week ago before a thaw/freeze. I don't really count that as groomed. And Belle used to be very...

    Who's on the DL?

    Be careful! We want you skiing for a long time (and more important well).

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    Low for a regenerative breaking setting, I was not referring to low gear (if you were).

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    Harv: one caution on regen breaks in snow - if there is a low setting you should consider using that. The heavier the vehicle, at the point you lose grip, the longer it takes to recover (the engineers/scientists etc can explain the why). Going on lower regen mode in snow slows the deceleration...

    Today's Hike

    This past 'race' was the first one i have ever warmed up for. I am so uncompetitive and halfs and full marathons so long, that I just treated the first mile as warm ups. Because this was relatively short and I had time goals, I did a half mile warm up and ran a few strides to get my heart rate...

    Took photos on my cool down walk this morning.

    Today's Hike

    Well, i am putting myself out there with time goals! My goal for a late January half is to run sub 2 hour half, equalling 9:09 per mile over 13.1 miles (original goal was by July, but it seems like this is feasible). I did a mini time trial yesterday: our local turkey trot is 5 miles, 249 feet...

    Today's Hike

    This morning did a short trail run on a path near water. Saw beautiful fiery red-pink-orange rays of the sunrise reflected in the clouds and glass-like water. Smiled to myself as I didn't have my phone and so lost memorialization of the moment. Couldn't record, but could enjoy it. Fringe...

    Belleayre Conditions

    Dang they are poring money in. I remember when everyone trashed Belle. I believe I saw a stat that it is particularly profitable among the three now. As it should be 2.5 hours from the City. Wonder if we will see the day they get that face that gives you 2000 vertical down to 28. I will...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    The biggest drop in used Tesla prices came in the period when in addition to uncertainty around the tax credit, the car rental companies went from a big bet on EVs to, 'we are selling these things now no matter what'. I do think Hertz still sells Tesla's directly at a decent deal . . . .
