The US rockies region get to negative F all the time. The area around Antero Reservoir gets to -20F -30F all the time. Winter Park overnight parking is commonly around -10F overnig…

60 kwh at 4 kilowatt gives you 15 hours of heat in a van in cold weather. Granted, you may not need full 4 kilowatt of heat at all tines, so let's say it's one full day. You drive …

One does not need heat to sleep in a car (slept dozens of nights at ski resorts). This does not mean that you can heat up a van/rv with electricity. (I have lived for a month in a …

12 kilowatt hours of battery storage gives you 3 hours of heat at 4 kilowatts. In 3 hours you freeze, literally (it's -0F/-18C outside, around Antero, Colorado). 12 kilowatt hours …

I just own a camper van. In current state of affairs, heat is a solved problem with diesel. Air conditioning still does not have a viable solution, aside from shore power. You can'…

I mean that trying to heat with electricity is not feasible for a van. You need 2-4 kilowatt of heat to stay warm in winter. In summer, AC is another unsolved problem: most of thes…

Good luck heating this thing with electricity. Or air conditioning. Nowhere to go w/o good old fossil fuels.

What a strange idea to build an el camino (unibody pickup) for a flagman ev by a company... It is not a good pickup. It is not a good SUV. Why? Because Ford sells a lot of pickups?…

Many people and myself included, would love to see Lake Powell drained. It serves little purpose and we would be better without it. As a bonus, we'd get wonderful Glen Canyon back.…

I am in the same boat as this woman, probably got a few good months left. I am planning self deliverance with helium as soon as symptoms become significant. For now I am just check…

Whatevs. Joe Rogan, as far as I could tell is some sort of loud macho redneck type that does not have anything interesting to say. On another note, Spotify is so buggy an applicati…

Similar case in Colorado 5 years ago: https://denver.cbslocal.com/2015/07/28/father-and-son-were-k... Canister stoves that produce a small amount of carbon monoxide have an unfortu…

If they were backpacking, I'd say carbon monoxide from a stove most likely. Otherwise maybe only lightning makes some sense. All this "toxic gasses" seems way too unlikely.

What do you mean "bc is useless". I use it all the time!!

Wow, loved this! Beautiful mystery, Butch Cassidy and Sundance Kid.

IntelliJ and the rest rock. I switched from Eclipse 8+ years ago and never looked back.

Something to note. You do not have to be "sedated" for colonoscopy. I have had two and requested no sedation for the last one. It is mildly uncomfortable, but not painful. The "sed…

Could you share the link to the place that digitized the VHSs for you?

I could never understand the point of a gym. Just a pair of running shoes. Some dumbbells. I picked up slacklining and bosu ball training during the lockdown. Why does one need a "…

A lot of this is Mac OS X fault: it still does not have an easy canonical way of installing things and has no way for uninstalling. I don't get why in this day mac os can't have so…

Here's something on the next level: https://thingstolucat.com/category/trip-planning/ Skurka is obviously is one of the great ones. But so is Luc and he extends quite a bit on the …

I spend so much money on Backcountry.com, I get personal emails from a "gearhead" (a rep assigned to me). I have sent him a (very polite) email asking to inform the corporate that …

I recently bought a domestic vehicle. What a mistake. The assembly quality is awful. I don't know how they assemble the body panels I thought it was all done by robots, but robots …

There's little evidence that this is due to a campaign. RMNP in Colorado had a similar jump in number of visits, as well as Yellowstone and the Grand. The problem is simply too man…
