    Not always. A Cherry Ripe and a good stout is a match made in heaven. Do you have Cherry Ripe in the USA?

    New England/Northeast Foliage Reports

    If that is disappointing I’ll be impressed if I go in a disappointing year. It looks lovely to me. I had planned to visit this year but those plans were stymied by my dad having some medical issues. Won’t get there next year either as we’re going to Slovenia/Dolomites in late September for...

    Oh no. That was a go to for me for quite a few visits between 2010 and 2020.

    My mates that drink the commercial ‘cold and wet’ beer that is tasteless to me think I’m a weirdo.

    You're a curmudgeon. I personally love IPAs and I find the adjectives helpful because the description means I can make a choice that suits my taste. The dumb names and silly graphics are dumb and silly but more amusing than anything. I drink a large array of beer styles but they are usually...

    That’s sad. Craft beer is one of life’s great pleasures. The grey lady is the NY Times?

    Panorama, BC - Panorama Is Skiing’s #LifeHack. Actually, so is all of B.C. outside of Whistler.

    The writer seems a bit negative toward the mainstream US ski areas. My family were at a few of them last Christmas holidays. Whilst it was busy lift lines weren't bad at all. We had a great time. Better than the week or so later skiing in Canada in the freezing fog.

    The Pitfalls of Gen AI (Skiing-Related)

    I'm a Luddite by nature so it's no surprise that I find AI horrifying. I despair for the human race.

    Schweitzer, ID: 03/03/21

    Thanks @jamesdeluxe . I’ve not been to Schweitzer or any other interior north west US ski hills. I didn’t even know it had lake views. I’d love to check the area out one day….

    Oz/NZ 2025

    It would have been nice to get a few days on skis down south given it has been a decent season for the Oz mountains but I’ve had to stay close to home as I’m assisting my dad to get to medical appointments temporarily. That winds up very soon. I took my lad and his girlfriend to do the last...

    American Election 2024

    Very. But media can’t make dumb or insensitive comments that might upset the leadership without being silenced. 1984 here we are.

    Oz/NZ 2025

    @ChrisC let me know when you’ll be heading to this portion of the globe. I’ll try to meet you for some shared chairs. I’m committed to a Europe hiking trip next September though. October at Ruapehu sounds good.

    Valdez, Alaska: April 14-19, 2024

    Just reading this report again. Fantastic pics of the town and terrain. You men are also photogenic specimens too. Good looking blokes with big genuine smiles that have clearly not been put on for the camera. Isn’t it a good feeling when you have genuine fun?

    Ski Area Count 2023-2025 Updates

    I think I can realistically add 8 new destinations this coming winter. That will get me to 90. I’m going to take a wild guess that may be very inaccurate but I’m tipping there wouldn’t be too many life long Brisbane residents with 90 ski hills on their resume. *It doesn’t matter that they are...
