Apr 23, 2011 at 1:18 pm #1272744
concerned about snow on the rim around the valley come mid-june. with 170% water content in the current snowpack around the valley, should i consider crampons or snowshoes on my trip around the valley (including tuolumne and clouds rest)? i am a fit and relatively experienced midwest outdoorsman but concerned about "postholing" and icey conditions this june. thanks!Apr 23, 2011 at 1:32 pm #1728463

@kennyhel77Locale: Scotts Valley CA via San Jose, CA
Tuolumne and more specifically Clouds Rest might not be reacheable in Mid June. It all depends on when Yosemite opens Hwy 120. On there website it shows you each years opening dates. Keep in mind, this year was a heavy snow year. You might be good to go with snowshoes if you are hiking around the rim of the valley.Apr 23, 2011 at 4:17 pm #1728517
By mid-June, it will be somewhat unpredictable. If you stay on the well-traveled trails, there will be a muddy/icy foot track, and you can probably stay up on the surface most of the time. As you get off into the less-traveled trails, the snow will be unstable, and there will be lots of runoff. Also consider the orientation of the trails with respect to the sun direction and tree cover.
I can guarantee that the top of El Capitan will be bare and dry, but the trails through the woods on either side may be a complete mess.

You will facing the same conditions as the PCT thru hikers. Few if any of them are carrying snowshoes. Crampons, maybe, trekking poles (IMHO) yes. Latest word out of Yosemite is an expected Tioga opening date in late June, but that could change.
You should expect hard snow in the mornings and softer snow and possibly postholing in the afternoon. Suncups may also be a pleasant little challenge. If Tioga Road is open a great early trip is the Grand Canyon of the Toulumne. I did that along with ten lakes two years ago and it was snowy but great.Apr 24, 2011 at 10:50 am #1728759

Ya…I am in the same predicament. I am hoping to head up to Yosemite the third weekend in June. Start at Lyell Canyon and come out the mist trail. Am unsure of the snow conditions at this point…so I guess I am just playin it by ear…Apr 25, 2011 at 4:15 am #1729077
planning on entering at rockslides trailhead and doing the "backpacking magazine loop" around the north rim, extending up to tenaya lake, across clouds rest, do half dome and then back down to happy isles. while the water, mud and postholing will be a challenge, i am most concerned about slippery ice ……. on the knife edge of clouds rest ……. yikes!Apr 25, 2011 at 2:47 pm #1729303
Afew posters have done that trip. Here a trip report.

appreciate the threads regarding the illusive rockslides trail. however, ive yet to gain any confidence in finding the trail on the other side of the "the big slide". is it really that hard to stay on this trail?Apr 26, 2011 at 9:26 am #1729639
If you are referring to the section where you have to do the steep 100ft scramble up the hill, no its not all that difficult to follow. There is a red spray-painted arrow on a rock where you begin the climb (stay to the right as you climb up, the left and middle has very loose soil and rocks) and it ends at the road bed on top with another bunch of boulders. Honestly you can't miss it.Apr 26, 2011 at 10:44 am #1729669

@andrew-fLocale: San Francisco Bay Area
Someone really spray painted a big red arrow on a rock??? That is terrible.
Awhile ago, someone spray painted big orange dots in the Gunsight gulley of Middle Cathedral because they felt that everyone needed trail markers to get up/down safely. Thousands of people have made it safely up and down without them, and thanks to the hard work of some climbers, the dots were mostly removed with lots of scrubbing and cleaning agents. There are still nasty scars on the rock from where the paint was scrubbed off, though. I don't understand what people are thinking when they do stuff like that.
End of rant… thanks for the info about a trail I hadn't heard of in the Valley…
AndrewApr 26, 2011 at 11:19 am #1729685
On the high side of the rockslides, the trail is an old paved road which used to be one main route into the valley eighty years ago (The Old Big Oak Flat Road). The new road replaced it, and it is several miles to the west of there. That old road is the access to Tamarack Flat Campground when it is open, but now it is used only as a fire road.

I went that same route last labor day weekend and didn't have too much trouble finding the trail….maybe about 5 minutes of thinking we may have gone the wrong way then saw the trail and smooth sailing after that.
And we camped in the exact same spot as they did in the picture labeled, "Campsite with amazing view of Half Dome" in the trip report link above. It was quite an amazing view. Somehow we had the whole area to ourselves despite the fact it was labor day weekend.Apr 27, 2011 at 4:06 am #1730001
so, it sounds like it isn't that difficult to stay on the rockslides trail up out of the valley? why have so many things i've read on the internet indicated that it's so difficult to follow across some of the slide areas?Apr 27, 2011 at 12:54 pm #1730175
The rockslides is not so much a trail as it is a route. Remember that there used to be a paved road underneath the rocks.
Many people hiking in Yosemite Valley can't follow a paved sidewalk from the bus stop.
Don't expect a nice three-foot path of pine needles stretching out between the rocks on either side.
–B.G.–Apr 27, 2011 at 5:16 pm #1730244
lmao! i hear you — that's what i was suspecting. last question — what is the longest stretch of rockslide-obstructed roadbed as you traverse up out of the valley?Apr 27, 2011 at 10:37 pm #1730366
Two miles maybe.
–B.G.–May 4, 2011 at 8:55 am #1732828
Actually the longest stretch of the roadbed obstructed by rockslides is about 200 yds. But there's a bunch of them. It honestly not that bad a route though.

Giant Eagle will accept competitor's coupons
by: Robin Taylor Updated:
We have some good news if you shop at Giant Eagle. The grocery store chain is now accepting competitor's coupons. Target 11's Robin Taylor takes a look at what the new policy means.
Giant Eagle is facing stiff competition from other grocery stores and management thinks this is something that will set them apart. The grocery store already doubles manufacturer's coupons. Now they'll accept competitor's coupons.
The chain has been doing this for a while now at some locations, like the new Market District store in Pine Township.
This month, Giant Eagle modified their coupon policy to include competitor's coupons at all of their stores.
- Giant Eagle will accept coupons from any grocery store, convenience store or pharmacy.
- The coupon must be for dollars or cents off a total order or particular product. They won't accept "percentage off" competitor coupons.
- Competitor coupons will not be doubled.
- Competitor coupons will not be accepted at the self-checkout registers.
- Management reserves the right to refuse coupons that appear to be fraudulent.
Giant Eagle is trying to retain loyal customers in the face of rising competition.
In the past year, Bottom Dollar opened more than a dozen stores in the Pittsburgh metro area, a new Whole Foods opened in Wexford and Aldi expanded to couple new locations.
Giant Eagle is also taking hits from the World's largest retailer. Walmart has also been running an ad campaign comparing their prices to those at Giant Eagle.

So, Eduardo da Silva, this is goodbye. In three years at Arsenal, the striker has gone on a winding journey from fan favourite to squad dead wood via horrific injury and controversy, but now Gunners fans won't be too sad to say so long, até a vista and do viđenja to the Brazilian-born Croatia striker now that he has completed a £6 million move to Shakhtar Donetsk.
He made his mark on the international scene by putting a first, early nail in Steve McClaren's coffin with his goal against England in Zagreb.
That strike may have been overshadowed by Gary Neville's own goal, which history has harshly recorded as a Paul Robinson gaffe, but it was enough for Arsene Wenger to take notice. Who was this sprightly, lethal left-footed finisher with the eyes of a puma and the mouth of a catfish? Wenger's interest was piqued.
In the way that only Arsenal do, his signing in July 2007 came out of nowhere, even if the originally reported fee of £16.5m turned out to be more than double the actual amount paid for his services.
Despite saving most of his scoring form for cup matches, Eduardo proved a big hit at the Emirates Stadium, but supporters could never have imagined how his sustaining an injury would affect the course of their recent history.
On that fateful lunchtime in February 2008 when the lumbering Martin Taylor's clumsy tackle snapped his leg after just three minutes at St Andrews, the team was rocked. At the time the Gunners were Premier League leaders, but the 2-2 draw led to a shell-shocked William Gallas slumping on to the pitch at the final whistle, and Arsenal finished the season in third place.
The fallout and recriminations over Taylor's tackle whipped up into a frenzy, while a stunned, dejected Eduardo sat dejected and helpless in the eye of the storm. Wenger blasted that Taylor should "never play football again"; while Alex McLeish trotted out the classic "he's not that type of player". The Blues defender became public enemy number one as the debate raged over fair play, the rules of the game and the very nature of the human spirit.
By the time he made his return a week shy of the anniversary of that injury, Eduardo had behind him a groundswell of unanimous goodwill rarely seen in football - save for a few creative chants from fans travelling to north London. You know the ones.
He duly responded with a brace against Cardiff in the FA Cup on his first game back, before scoring an outrageous backheeled flick against Burnley in the next round a month later.
But any remaining sentiment for the player evaporated at the start of this season when his shocking dive in a Champions League qualifier against Celtic saw him transformed from a pillar of gutsy sporting endeavour into a pariah. Wenger's claim that memories of his injury meant he leapt out of Artur Boruc's way in an instinctive act of self-preservation were given short shrift as Eduardo took his turn to be that week's symptom of the game going to the dogs.
He converted the penalty he had 'won', but the fuss over the incident led to UEFA reacting by seemingly inventing a rule just for him and banning him for two matches. Diving became the hot topic, and had barely died down when UEFA finally relented and overturned the ban.
By that time, however, Eduardo was a shadow of the player Arsenal once hoped he would be, and his failure to step into the breach when Robin van Persie and then Nicklas Bendtner were injured contributed to another year of disappointment for the Gunners.
It could be argued that Arsenal cannot afford to lose a forward from their already thin squad, but the fact is that a Premier League goal tally of one every five games will not fire a team to the title.
Arsenal have done well to recoup most of the fee they paid for a forward who at the time was such hot property, and Eduardo can look to rebuild his career among the other Brazilian journeymen at Shakhtar.
His impact on the pitch may not have been historic, but he has certainly left his mark.

The Story of Isa
I am confused. I stare into the eyes of that girl, the friendliness there lighting up her whole face. I can almost feel her warmth spreading to me, comforting me.
It doesn't matter, really, wheather I tell her or not. She would find out eventually anyway. And something in me, nagging me, is forcing me to speak. I open my mouth, decided on telling the story...but before I can speak I start to cry.
Raven simply puts her arm around me and lets me sob on her shoulder. When the loud cries finally fade away to little sniffles, I wipe my eyes and turn towards her.
"I'm sorry," I sniff. "I don't mean to be such a baby. But--"
She smiles. "It's okay. What's wrong, though?"
I close my eyes for a moment and then stare straight at her. "I can see things. Things most people can't."
She looks confused. "You mean, like, the future?"
I shake my head. "No, like, people. Spirits, ghosts. I can see them and I can talk to them." I pause, waiting for her reaction.
She looks interested, but not afriad. "Go on."
"After I was born I lived the first seven years of my life in an orphanedge, but I was haunted by things there. Everyone knew I was different, and none of the other kids would talk to me. So I ran away.
"I fell asleep in a barn and met a ghost there, who told me that he knew where a woman and her husband lived who wanted a daughter but had never had one. I went to the house and begged her to take me in, and she did. I had to work--cook and clean--but she was kind to me and treated me like a daughter, and let me call her Mother."
Raven was still smiling, but her eyes looked more serious. "Then what happened?"
I sighed. "I lived with her for ten years, and then...about a month ago...her husband died, and she was devastated. She knew about my gift and begged me to bring him back to life, but I can only talk to the spirits, I can't revive them."
Raven nodded. "So..."
"She was angry with me. She told me that she would turn me out on the streets if I didn't bring him back. Then she started to go insane. So I left. I packed up everything I had and got on the bus, and here I am now."
I took a deep breath and waited for her to speak, knowing her opinion would decide everything.

Dec 21, 2013 at 11:24 am #1311279
In anticipation of possibly not being allowed to use alcohol next summer on the JMT, Ive been playing with my Gnat a bit.
For this, I may use a stainless steel 10cm cup that weighs 2.03 oz. With lid its 2.2 oz.
So I did some test boiling 16 oz water (weighed). With high heat, It rolling boils in 2.5 minutes on 0.27 oz fuel. But on very low heat, it reaches boil in about 9 minutes on 0.18 oz fuel.
Big difference by waiting a few minutes.
So, I calculated up how many boils I could get out of a 100gm cannister that way. = 19.5
A single 100gm cannister will work for me for the JMT.= :)
So, I wondered how a jetboil would compare to this. Note, I dont own one.
Jetboil says they basically average 0.14 oz fuel per 2 cup boil. Not that great really, but it is much faster, which is worth something in groups for sure.
On a total weight basis, a jetboil would be 8.5 oz+8 oz for 100gm cannister and fuel = 16.5 oz to boil about 25 2-cup boils.
For the same weight with my gnat and SS cup, 3.9 oz + larger 12oz cannister/fuel = 15.9 oz, but could boil 8/.18= 44 2-cup boils.
Jetboil loses. Even at 0.1 oz per boil the jetboil still loses.
This surprised me because fuel efficiency on long trips was the reason many cite for carrying a jetboil. Yes its fuel efficient when used to heat fast. But not enough to make up for the weight it seems if you heat slow with a UL cannister setup.Dec 21, 2013 at 11:44 am #2056562
the folks at BPL have already done all the math and testing in the 2011 SOTM

That's a lovely chart Eric, but what do the numbers represent?
(I assume higher is better, as wind appears to lower them.)Dec 21, 2013 at 11:57 am #2056568
lets just say its a certain amount of water boiled
i suggest signing up to view the full BPL article

Table 4:
"Comparative gas mileage (number of pints/approx. 0.5 L of water that can be boiled from a single 8-ounce/227-g fuel canister) for eight canister stoves in four conditions."Dec 21, 2013 at 12:04 pm #2056570
Dont see that they tested my setup on as low of heat, and compared boils vs. total carried weight at all.
If you do, please point me to it.
And wind is not an issue.
As an avid alcohol stove user, I know how to minimize wind impact.
In bad conditions, it involves encircling my stove and pot with a sleeping pad.
Fuel conservation is a priority, because I dont bring extra.
The fuel usage for the gnat is 22% higher on low, and 34% on higher on high than what I found. Obviously the high was higher than mine, I dont turn up all way, no reason, and the lower was also higher.Dec 21, 2013 at 12:08 pm #2056573

I know this isn't scientific, but I get about 14 or so uses out of my Jetboil (Sol Ti now) from one of the small canisters. Looking at the check marks on my canisters (how I keep track), I know for sure I'll get 12. That's pretty good given altitude, wind, etc.Dec 21, 2013 at 12:14 pm #2056576
Dont see that they tested my setup on as low of heat, and compared boils vs. total carried weight at all.
they tested MODERATE heat on the gnat …
note that neither you nor BPL did an apples to apples comparison … youre both "testing" FULL ON jetboil fuel use against LOW/MODERATE gnat fuel efficiency
i suspect that at lower settings the jetboil becomes even more fuel efficient
;)Dec 21, 2013 at 12:20 pm #2056577
My understanding, never having owned or used one, is that the jetboil doesnt go real low, at least it didnt at one time. People complained they couldnt simmer. I recall reading somewhere where someone figured out how to do it, but said it wasnt easy.
My windscreen for the gnat/cannister is water bottles, food bag, rocks, logs, natural items, depression in ground, and as a last resort…sleeping pad. No extra weight needed.
The only thing I care about is weight carried vs boils. And all I do is boil water. Usually 1.5 cups.
"they tested MODERATE heat on the gnat .."
They should have tested a bit lower, on par with alcohol.Dec 21, 2013 at 12:22 pm #2056580

What temp was the water in your tests with the Gnat? Close to Sierra Nevada water temperatures? I'll bet not. Good fuel conservation.
DuaneDec 21, 2013 at 12:26 pm #2056581
My understanding, never having owned or used one, is that the jetboil doesnt go real low, at least it didnt at one time. People complained they couldnt simmer
my jetboil gets REAL low
it simmers just fine
if youre going to make a comparison i suggest borrowing a jetboil and testing the fuel usage under the exact same conditions …
just like BPL did (well the should have tested the jetboil at moderate heat too)
testing conditions can vary, so i wouldnt put too much stock on the claimed fuel usage jetboil or even BPL claims, as your conditions that you test your stove under could be different in temperature, altitude, canister pressure, pot type, etc …
i also suggest testing it with a household fan with your makeshift windscreen and seeing how much fuel usage goes up ….
like i said BPL tested this 2 years ago … and they do these tests better than anyone else ive seen on the intrawebs so far
in short they found ~ a 30% fuel savings in jetboils at FULL BLAST when compared to a gnat at "moderate" heat …
as to whether it was "low" enough … its your call whether to wait 2 min for water vs "9 min" and still use less fuel with the jetboil …
;)Dec 21, 2013 at 12:30 pm #2056582
Water was 65 F
Wont matter, I will stick a full 100gm cannister in resupply bucket anyway. And I probably would boil on high too, just because it wont matter. But in a pinch, nice to know how much the fuel consumption can be reduced by slowing it down.
Up till know, I only used the gnat with a 1.3L pot for 2 persons, preferring alcohol even for 2P. But given the uncertainty of fire restrictions , figured Id better at least be prepared to take a cannister.Dec 21, 2013 at 12:35 pm #2056584

This Thread, and John's blog, addresses a similar question. Note that his systems are all modified, and his water volumes are somewhat "non-standard".But, most importantly, he Knows where his numbers come from for the conditions typical for him.
Note that when he used 24 grams of esbit per days the "cross over occurred at Day 9.
Build a spreadsheet, use numbers for Your conditions and requirements, and see what happens.Dec 21, 2013 at 12:42 pm #2056586
Actually, I have no desire to do any more comparison.
I already know for the hiking I do, a jetboil will never pan out, being too bulky, and heavy.
At best, fuel efficiency per weight carried even on high,using BPL #s would put the jetboil ON PAR with the gnat
This is because for the same weight, I can carry a 220gm cannister instead of a 100 gm
Thats 25 days between resupply. Double what I ever suspect I would.
On LOW, I have no fear of using my 1.05 oz Zelph flat bottom pot with a gnat either, as it has a steel bottom.Dec 21, 2013 at 12:48 pm #2056589
so basically no real "comparison" was done …
you will note that on HIGH the jetboil blows the gnat away by almost half the fuel use even in calm warm conditions …
BPL themselves said
Some people claim that an integrated canister stove's fuel savings offsets the stove's additional weight compared to a lighter weight combination of a top-mount stove and titanium cook pot. Let's look at some numbers. The stripped down Jetboil Sol Ti Premium Cooking System weighs 7.5 ounces (213 g); the Monatauk Gnat weighs 1.6 ounces (48 g), and an ultralight titanium cook pot with volume equivalent to the Jetboil Sol Ti weighs 3.1 ounces (88 g), for a total of 4.7 ounces (144 g), a difference of 2.8 ounces (79 g). From our gas mileage calculations for Warm/Calm conditions, we estimate that the Jetboil Sol Ti will boil 29 pints of water from a 4-ounce (113 g) fuel canister, while the Monatauk Gnat will boil only 18.5 pints. If we assume a need for four pints of water boiled per person per day, then a 4-ounce (113 g) fuel canister would support two people for 2.3 cooking days with the Monatauk Gnat versus 3.7 cooking days using the stripped Jetboil Sol Ti. The comparison comes out as a tie because of the fuel canister – in both cases you would likely take along a full fuel canister, so there is no savings in weight carried. The only time you could save weight in this comparison is when you can get by with a smaller size canister of fuel or you are using the stove to boil water for a group.
there are many other reasons to use the jetboil … thats a persons choice whether to do so or not …
but if i were to make a "comparison" of say 2 down jackets … or any other 2 pieces of gear … i should probably have both pieces in hand and have tested both personally
;)Dec 21, 2013 at 12:56 pm #2056591
Im not doing any comparison.
Please show me a graph of WEIGHT CARRIED vs. TOTAL BOILS that includes the jetboil and real UL cannister setups. I dont see any. But I suspect for the short trips most take, if they took a partial cannister, the jetboil would not look good.
An issue I had with the BPL comparisons involving alcohol, is they will test some absurdly heavy popular item instead of the lowest possible weight setup, then make a chart that showed the crossover point at 4-5 days. My crossover point for alcohol vs cannister is 2 weeks.
No offense to any users of popular alcohol items, but when you can have a cannister setup, including fuel container, that weighs less than your alcohol setup, something doesnt make sense.
I totally agree there are reasons to carry a jetboil.
However, I am a minimialist when it comes to stoves. It is only used for a paltry 20% of my food, and I find it almost ridiculous to bring at all. Thats why my alcohol setup is 2.5 oz with empty fuel bottle. I am not worried in the least of running out of fuel, or not having hot water. If I run low on fuel, you use warm water instead of hot for several days, or eat crunchy food. Its simply not a big deal.
The weight carried, is, to me.Dec 21, 2013 at 1:05 pm #2056596
sure you are as implied through the thread title … perhaps a better title would be "testing of gnat"?
we can make a chart that shows the weight and daily usage of a gnat setup vs. a jetboil using the BPL data …
its not that hard … any BPLers interested?
when everyone gets into arguments about partial canisters, its honestly time to stop worrying about a few grams here and there
personally i thing this concluding statement on the BPL review says it all ..
Using this reasoning, which we admit is a bit of a rationalization, the integrated stove comes out at least equal, or on top under certain conditions. If our reasoning is valid, this is the first time it can be successfully argued that an integrated canister fuel stove is a lighter weight option than a conventional canister stove plus a cook pot. And the integrated stove offers some serious convenience as well. In any amount of wind, the integrated stove will completely blow away (pun intended) the conventional stove. It's worth it for that reason alone.

I suppose everyone should carry a Hilleberg tent too, all the time?
Or driver a 4 wheel drive all the time?
Or bring down booties and down pants all the time?
Of course not.
The statement is wrong. An item is only worth it, if its actually needed.
$150 because you might cook on a windy day?
Extra weight carried on normal length trips because you might cook on windy day?
Ill eat my noodles crunchy, but you know what?, I havent had to yet:)Dec 21, 2013 at 1:24 pm #2056603
worth depends on the person … but its probably some BPL conspiracy to sell more jetboils =P
mr jordan said in the same thread …
The Jetboil SOL Ti offers significant advantages over the Gnat, or another lightweight system.
The advantages aren't clear until you use the system.
I think its greatest advantage is the simplicity of the setup, and the aesthetic of its integrated pieces.
Obviously there are practical advantages as well.
In a trek to the Canadian Rockies this summer, my partner and I shared it for a week of foul weather. We boiled 30 pots of water on a single 100g fuel canister in conditions that averaged 45 degrees, windy, and rainy. Not fooling around with windscreens, and otherwise waiting long times for water to boil was great.
For the ease and efficiency of our system (8.5 oz of hardware and 6.5 oz of fuel + 2 oz each for a mug, bowl, and spoon), it was hard to beat for a 2-man cook kit.
On 7/23 I posted to my Twitter account after I returned from Canada: "…The stove I always hoped Jetboil would make. A fantastic burner for one or two alpinists."
I was excited to see Will's data validate my field experience.
Really, give this little stove a try. It's phenomenal.
And, when you compare it to a setup required for 2 people to share an alcohol, or Esbit stove for 30×0.7L pots of water (esp. in cold, wet, windy weather)…it's almost hard to justify any other method of hydrocarbon cooking on efficiency, or ease of use considerations at least.
im willing to make a comparison chart from the BPL numbers and see what they come up with …
we just need to use a "stripped" system of the same pot size for an apples to apples comparison … we can compare the jetboil on HIGH vs the gnat on both MODERATE and HIGH …
but if we dont add the windscreen weight in, then we should mix the numbers from both the WARM/CALM and WARM/WIND fuel efficiency …
;)Dec 21, 2013 at 1:44 pm #2056617
I totally agree it has its place, and that it offer some great benefits to some situations. Particularly multi-person.
But I dont think it belongs in everyones pack. Nor do I think there is any singular item of any kind that belongs in anyones pack. Hikers, locations, and trips are all too different to make broad sweeping generalizations.
What I do think, is a much lighter cannister stove that is ONLY designed for boiling 2 cup small pots instead of 1-2L pots, is very possible to make, probably weighing under one ounce, if someone had the desire to do so. Even the gnat is an overbuilt beast of a stove for what a solo hiker needs in good conditions.Dec 21, 2013 at 1:58 pm #2056624
what people use is totally up to them …
ive considered getting a new fire maple horne and a very small AL cup for places where fuel efficiency is of no concern, but being able to survive a few days in a snow cave is … for climbs where being able to make water means youll live, and where every gram counts
well see if i buy one
ill make the chart this coming week …
what i need is
the lightest jetboil setup possible using the same pot size and not modifying the burner or anything else that might affect the boil time/efficiency in any way … BPL has it at 213g for the SOL Ti
the lightest version possible of the gnat + an MSR titan pot (thats the pot they used for the test so lets stick with it, its pretty light anyways) but WITHOUT the lid, and i need the weight of a foil lid
also i need the weight of the lightest PRACTICAL windscreen that will withstand a 10 km wind (BPL tests were done with an 8 km wind) … and wind at such levels is not uncommon in alpine areas … no dumping out the gear or using rocks etc… theres plenty of places where this might not be practical … and honestly the weight will likely be minimal
im quite interested in what the numbers say myself
note that this is from BPL data …
one thing to note is that if you are using alot of fuel, boiling every day for weeks/months at a time … the 30-50% fuel savings may be a financial consideration as well … sure the SOL AL/TI are expensive … but the jetboil zip which BPL tested at basically the same weight and fuel efficiency as the SOL AL is 60-80$ …

(in 2003) MINERVA 1st Handbook for quality: A user is a professional or not, specialist or not who casually or with specific aims, occasionally or systematically uses the Cultural Web Application. User identity is extremely variable depending on cultural profile, aspirations for cultural growth, professional aims and even momentary curiosity. Jerusalem, 11 November 2008 10 The users: who are they? (in 2003) MINERVA 5th quality principle: "USER-CENTERED" A good quality cultural website must be usercentred, taking into account the needs of users, ensuring relevance and ease of use through responding to evaluation and feedback. Jerusalem, 11 November 2008 11 The users: who are they? (in 2008) After 4 years, other definitions for Internet users: • hybrid individual • transceiver (transmitter + receiver) • prosumer (producer + consumer) = information recipient and provider of its own contents Different terms characterize the various user's activities and behaviours on the web: consumer / client / audience user / surfer / viewer player / clicker / downloader / streamer Jerusalem, 11 November 2008 12 Another type of user... Non human users/agents: robots, spiders, crawlers, harvesters… This variety of definitions reflects an articulated offer of contents and applications in the new media environment, which at the same time is: • • • • vehicle of information and communication encyclopedic archive and tool of cultural training entertainment and community interaction area technological platform Jerusalem, 11 November 2008 13 Available also in PDF and XHTML http://www.minervaeurope.org/publications/handbookwebusers.htm Jerusalem, 11 November 2008 14 Handbook goals and target To answer to some questions still unsolved in the previous MINERVA web quality tools: What do users want? How do users behave? How can we understand their use of our web applications? Do effective methods to ask users about their expectations (before) and their degree of satisfaction (after) exist? The target readers of the handbook are all the cultural subjects and projects concerned with tangible and intangible cultural heritage, planning to develop new web applications or to update and improve their existing applications, taking into serious account the users point of view.

Commuters at Central station in Glasgow observe the three-minute silence. Photograph: Andrew Milligan/PA
So did you pause for three minutes at noon today? Max Hastings' explanation in the Daily Mail (not available on its website, unfortunately) of why he wouldn't be observing today's silence for victims of the tsunami, and Boris Johnson's objections on Radio 4's Today programme - "I'm slightly nervous of people feeling coerced to do so because, after all, they may feel obliged to display an emotion they don't entirely feel" - are intriguing. Why has the right seized on this particular new tradition as a symbol of all that's wrong with New Labour?
To find the answer, you have to go back to a little pamphlet published by the right-wing thinktank Civitas in February last year. Titled Conspicuous compassion: Why sometimes it really is cruel to be kind, it was an assault on what the author, Patrick West, regarded as the empty-headed, vainglorious and occasionally violent sentimentalism afflicting Britain.
West's targets were many - mass mourning after the death of Diana, the News of the World's campaign to expose former paedophiles, internet petitions, celebrity posturing and charity ribbons - but one chapter, Silence of the Critics, specifically attacked the trend for "inflated minutes' silence". It "feeds on the mob mentality and the desire for conformity", West wrote.
Even if you do resent the order to shut up, and plenty on the left do, there's a familiar strain of rightwing thought at work here. Libertarianism, or the right of everyone to speak whenever they like, is a part of it. There's a certain fear of the popular mob: West says he was menaced by a football fan when he complained about a silence before a football match. But Hastings also perceives the multiplying "silences" as an attack on the sanctity of the one-minute silence on Armistice Day.
On the left, meanwhile - and in Brussels, because today's silence is, in theory, EU-wide - the three-minute silence is regarded as progressive; a reclaiming of an old tradition. Blake Morrison's article in today's Guardian urges readers to save their indignation for a lesser cause: "The next time a minor royal dies, by all means refuse to be silent. But today, please shut up."
For Morrison, it's about reclaiming a tradition that grew out of the first world war. Yet wars are brought about by human failings, and Armistice day is an opportunity to reflect on those mistakes and the people who suffered as a result of them. Tsunamis are not. That's fine as far as Morrison is concerned: "If helplessness in the face of nature makes us lost for words for once, that's surely appropriate."
But while we may be powerless to stop tsunamis, we can certainly help their victims. And what we were expected to think about during today's silence is pretty clear. Isn't three minutes just about the time it takes to make a donation to the Disaster Emergency Committee? It's an easy gesture to make. It's an obvious response to human suffering. Small wonder, when you think about it, that we can only bear to dwell on the awful complexities of war for a minute. Three minutes' empathy, and a bit of generosity at the end of it, is going to be a great deal more useful.

Family Reunion
... in the country. When we got there it was closed on Thursdays. So we headed to Gailey Lower Reservoir to do some birdwatching on the way to the reunion. We got there and walked the levee between the two reservoirs. We saw lots of coots, mallards, common terns, mute swans, black-headed gulls and the great-crested grebe. When we left there and headed to the reunion Peter remembered that he left his money at home so we had to ...

... to school in Northwest Indiana, it's fair to say that our "club" scene just isn't really a thing. So, it's been a nice change to actually have some night life :) I will say, the girls here take going out very seriously and before going out, there's plenty of time spend on curling/straightening hair, putting on make-up, putting on fake eyelashes, and changing clothes/shoes to find the perfect outfit. I've honestly enjoyed getting ready with the ladies here since it is a good way to spend ...
My experience in the Green Chapel
... blow, and honestly I was ready to get it over with. I bowed my head to let the green knight take his blow at me. He strike his ax at my neck, but he barley cut it, but it was deep enough to bleed out. In fact I still have that scar. i remember telling him that if he strike at me again, I would come with full force back at him, But he respected the deal we made and all he did that day was take the one blow we agreed on. ...

On the drive up I finally found out what the annoying beep was in the car, it was a speed camera warning system, whoops. I discovered it while doing 90MPH (about 140KPH) in the slow lane as cars whizzed passed me. I couldn't work out why they kept slowing while I kept a nice constant speed. At least ...

The latest exhibit in our ongoing series, STIHIE (So This Is How It Ends):
Since no white recording artist can truly respect himself until he shows that he's down with black people, it makes perfect sense that Billy Ray Cyrus would re-record his 1992 country hit "Achy Breaky Heart" as a hip-hop song/video experience, with some rapper named Buck 22 in tow.
It's like a minstrel show in reverse! Dig it, if you dare:

Discussion in 'Colorado Football Message Board' started by Big Red Cop, Nov 20, 2007.
where were you, oh tiny flaccid pink phallus, when your team was losing 5 straight and getting lit up like your mom after she gets paid with a 6 pack of nat'y lite by her "date"?
I was in a shell, fetal position!! But it is on now! NU/CU week, the chance for one of two pathetic teams to get to a bowl. Who steps up for Wheatly. The NU receivers, with Ganz, have really played well these last two weeks.
Ben Burnaby, considering his name doesn't make me cringe like Lorenzo Simms or Phil Jackson, seems to be doing decent. Of course he's going against the number 1 receiver, so we'll see. The coverage the rest of our dbs will give shouldn't drop off too much considering Nebraska doesn't quite wield a fearsome receiving corp. CU's problem is still getting to the QB, if we can't, the best of coverages don't matter much.
The hucksters are going down. We kept the #1 passing offense in the country out of the end zone when we needed to. We can handle the air game even if you use your highest rated QB - Marlon Lucky as a secret weapon
Sorry buddy, with the way it's snowing here right now you guys arn't gonna have much of a passing game anyway. It's gonna come down to who has the better overall defense in this one.
anyone else scared to have a CB with a name like BURNey?
i just hope he isn't suffering from thanksgiving ham induced diarrhea....:wow:
Tweaked it.
Speaking of poor play at cornerback, don't you stupid rednecks have a little piece of jive **** named Cortney Grixby? And what is your defense rated - #97 or something like that. Just give a Husker enough time to run his mouth, and he'll make a fool out of himself.:lol:
Sadly enough, I've heard from multiple nub sources that Grixby is the only player worth a **** in their secondary. I am sure he has improved a ton since last year, when he wouldn't have held my 4 year old niece under 100 yards. I'm sure...
:nod: and some of you want to buy a shucker a beer, do you? :lol:
if we win....sure...why not? :thumbsup:
t. wheat out is very discouraging. :sad1:
not entirely pleased about that piece of news. however, the weather will favor the strongest defense, and theirs is a sham.
texas bowl bound, here we come! :thumbsup:
i haven't looked at the forecast....is it calling for more snow or just cold?
if it's wet, that sure doesn't favor Huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuugh.....because of his cutting ability AND fumble-itis
snow and cold. it will not be pass friendly.
Ganz will rule the snow!
what's that?
Yea maybe if we were playing snow angels instead of football.
Ganz's completion percentage-67%
Chances that the Buffs come away with a W-10%
Chance of snow-20%
I like those percentages!!!
This all according to weather.com!
It could be advantageous to have a QB who schooled in Boise in that event... :thumbsup:
your koolaid is spiked, as evidenced by hallucinations. does your employer know you are prone to drug use?
You have been gone most of the season and you come back with this weak smack? Pitiful.
Why would I be on the CU board during the season?? It is NU/CU week, what is so pitiful about me being on here now? Seems like the right time to be here!
Fine. You come here for CU/NU week and drop this pitiful smack?
the other times you have trolled around when it was not cu/nu week - by your own admission? pitiful?
:lol: didn't think that one through too well.
No you didn't!!
get the accent right for christ's sake, when you get bitchslapped.
Separate names with a comma.
