Ergonomic Operators Station: The M6S-111's cab has been ergonomically designed for functionality and operator comfort. With well laid out controls and excellent visibility, the operator will be comfortable and well aware of the area around the tractor during operation.
Bevel Gear Front Axle: Kubota's bevel gear front axle has always been a leader in tight turning and excellent clearance under the tractor. This holds true with the bevel gear axle on the M6S-111 4WD models, as well. With 55° of turning angle and almost 17" of ground clearance, the M6S-111 is ready to tackle the tight confines of a barnyard or tall windrows in a hay field.
Kubota Exclusive Swing-Shift and Swing-Shift Plus Transmissions: When finding the right speed for your operation, the M6S-111 comes ready for the task at hand. With the 16 speed Swing-Shift or 32 speed Swing-Shift Plus transmissions, you'll always be able to find the right gear. The Kubota exclusive Swing-Shift transmission offers 8 or 16 speeds in both high and low ranges, eliminating the need to change ranges while you are working in the field or traveling down the road. Kubota Swing-Shift and Swing-Shift Plus Transmission's shift handles have an integrated "de-clutch" button to allow the operator to shift gears without using the foot pedal clutch, reducing operator fatigue throughout the work day.


Call of Juarez: The Cartel is an interesting game, not one to play but one to look back and say, " Was that really how people played games in 2011?" This is because if you compared Call of Juarez to any game made last year, it would lose the comparison by a country mile.
The single player starts, with you shooting, while being driven in a car. No reason why you're shooting until later, and with no instructions, CoJ takes throwing you into the deep end a little too far. My character wasn't appealing either. As far as I could tell his name was Eddie and he worked for the DEA. However he couldn't trust his partner because she was FBI, and the other guy was a sheriff, add to this Ed takes confiscated drugs and sells them on, and takes some as well. This all adds up to a character with whom you can't sympathise with and frankly don't want to play as.
The gameplay is standard, with a few tweaks. "Y" on Xbox is reload, which I found quite jarring as I normally associate it with changing weapons. This was compounded by the fact that I couldn't change the controls to the setup, which I am used to. However other than that, it is very generic.
The multiplayer seems to be better with a nice lobby system where you and your team relax and shoot down a firing range, and compete who gets the best score, this is quite fun as you can go around in your office and have a little fun. Multiplayer is standard fare and there are no fireworks in the department, there is a partner system, where when your partner is close to you, your health increases. However this irritated me because you also go into last stand if your partner is near you, which really annoyed me.
The graphics are poor. There isn't much more to say, the menu layout looks dark and decrepit and reeks of last-gen. It all looks bad and I guess it drives you into playing the game quicker instead of looking at the menus. However, the graphics in the game aren't much better and the whole experience is very disappointing.
Overall I expected a lot more of the game and it didn't really deliver much. This game has set the new standard for bad games, as it is genuinely the worst game I have ever played for a very long time.

NYC based portrait and fashion photographer Jeff Rojas is a big fan of simplicity. His educational YouTube channel is called KISSFOTO, presumably for the "keep it simple" philosophy, and he's been known to post photos on social media with his "Super Simple Setup" instructions. In keeping with this style, he's often touted the virtues of single light setups and has just released a new video tutorial teaching just that: a one light men's portrait.
A great thing about Jeff's tutorials for the photographer with a limited budget, beyond the fact that the "less is more" approach has the bonus of reduced costs to produce images, is is he'll often work with less expensive gear and demonstrate the professional results you can achieve without dropping all your hard earned cash on equipment from the big brands or flagship models.
He's positioned the light about a foot and a half above the subject, angled down, and placed the subject toward the back of the softbox where the light is beginning to feather, and lets the light that falls in front of the subject fill shadows. He's using black seamless paper for a backdrop, with the subject placed 5-6 feet away. That's it! Doesn't get much more simple than that.
The camera and lens used are a Canon 7D Mark II and Tamron 24-70 f/2.8, and while not cheap gear it's still not the top-shelf stuff many of us can only drool over wishfully.
With respect for your time as a viewer, Jeff's super simple setup is demonstrated in a super short video, just over two minutes. Have a watch!
You can find more from Jeff on his site.


EPA To New Orleans: Relax!
On the one-year anniversary of Hurricane Katrina, we're not hearing much about the "toxic gumbo" — a term reportedly first coined by reporter Ron Nixon, who has written for The Nation — that flooded New Orleans and surrounding areas. In the months after the storm, there was a plenty of coverage of the chemicals stirred up by Katrina; years of industry's reckless dumping on Louisiana's poor and black communities wrought a horrifying, carcinogenic soup of oil, gasoline, asbestos, raw sewage, cyanide, chlorobenzene and numerous other toxins, according to numerous experts who monitor pollution in the region. As Nicole Makris noted at the timeon Alternet, it was expected to be the EPA's biggest cleanup yet. Much of the sludge was released into Lake Pontchartrain and the Mississippi River without treatment, which is, clearly, disturbing. Everyone agreed that more study was needed — after all, in the chaos of humanitarian crisis, who had time to take water and soil samples. But some time has passed. One year later, what has our government discovered about this sludge and its effects on human health?
Going against the tired conventional wisdom yet again, the Bushies have found that, just like global warming, it's no big deal. A report recently released by the Bush Administration's Environmental "Protection" Agency found that the sediments left over from Rita and Katrina were "not expected to cause adverse health impacts to individuals returning to New Orleans." If you're reassured by that, perhaps you're a potential client for FEMA rolling head Michael Brown, who did such a "heck" of a job that he now runs his own disaster relief consultancy. Amazingly, this enterprise — which you'd think would be about as viable as a daycare center run by Michael Jackson — is a success. According to the New York Times, "Brownie" has about half a dozen clients and expects to earn "significantly more" in his new gig than he did as FEMA director (for which he scammed a government handout of $148,000 annually).

How to Copy Login Info from One SQL Server to Another
It can be a chore to move one SQL server database to another – if you want to save all the login and password information as well, that is. It's easy enough to back-up and restore all the information on one SQL server database and transfer it to the new one, but what can be done to save the login and password info? It's not as easy as simply right-clicking on each login window in SQL Server Management Studio, which allows them to be scripted-up using a feature called "Script Login As". Where that will create logins within the default database, that wouldn't include the passwords, as the script would merely create a random password for security purposes. (Note to the reader: This blog post won't be of help to you if you have Windows Authentication logins rather than those of SQL Server, as the former are maintained by Windows.)
Since most business entities or individuals do not create lists of their various passwords, that makes it harder to be able to just copy and paste them into the newly-generated login script. The good news is that Microsoft has a useful stored procedure that will "script-up" logins so that they can use the original passwords to create the new ones. This only allows you to use a hashed form of the password for the target server, however, and does not allow you to extrapolate it for use in applications beyond the target server.
How Does Stored Procedure Work?
There are stored procedures which can help you re-generate stored passwords using SQL Server – one covers versions from 2005 up to 2012, and one type for earlier versions of SQL Server.
In the Microsoft support article dealing with SQL Server versions between 2005 and 2012, they include this important tip as part of their summary:
"In SQL Server 2005, the SID for a login is used to implement database-level access. A login may have different SIDs in different databases on a server. In this case, the login can only access the database that has the SID that matches the SID in the sys.server_principals view. This problem can occur if the two databases are combined from different servers. To resolve this problem, manually remove the login from the database that has a SID mismatch by using the DROP USER statement. Then, add the login again by using the CREATE USER statement."
On the SQL Server help page that deals with earlier-than-2005 versions, they wrap-up with one of these summary remarks:
"The SID value for a particular login is used as the basis for implementing database level access in SQL Server. Therefore, if the same login has two different values for the SID at the database level (in two different databases on that server), the login will only have access to that database whose SID matches the value in syslogins for that login. Such a situation might occur if the two databases in question have been consolidated from two different servers. To resolve this problem, the login in question would have to be manually removed from the database that has a SID mismatch by using the sp_dropuser stored procedure, and then added again by using the sp_adduser stored procedure."

Hawaii Marks World Oceans Day With 9 New Laws To Protect Sharks And Marine Life
14th Jul 2021 Shea Woodrow Comments 0 Comment
The measures cover a range of issues focused on ocean conservation, resource management, regulation and enforcement.
Beginning Jan. 1 there will be steep penalties for intentionally or knowingly capturing, entangling or killing a shark in state marine waters.
House Bill 553, which failed to pass in previous legislative sessions, was signed into law Tuesday by Gov. David Ige.
Opponents sought exemptions for research, subsistence fishing and incidental takes. While some exemptions will be allowed — e.g., killing in self defense, incidental captures or in accordance with protected cultural practices — the state Department of Land and Natural Resources is now tasked with establishing rules based on the bill.
The penalty for a first offense will be $500 and as much as $10,000 for a third or subsequent offense. Administrative fees, costs and attorney fees might also be levied.
Penalties could also involve seizure and forfeiture of any captured sharks or shark parts and commercial marine licenses, vessels and fishing equipment.
State Rep. Nicole Lowen, HB 553's primary author, said the legislation was "many, many years in the making." She credited its passage to Inga Gibson, policy director for Pono Advocacy, and Michael Nakachi and his son, Kaikea, a father-and-son duo who advocate for more culturally sensitive methods of academic shark research.
The bill-signing ceremony at the Governor's Ceremonial Room at the state Capitol as well as via Zoom was timed to mark World Oceans Day, which was established by the United Nations in 2008 to inform the public of the impact of humans on the oceans and to mobilize sustainable management of them.
"They are the lungs of our Planet and a major source of food and medicine and a critical part of the biosphere," the UN says of the oceans, which covers more than 70% of the Earth.
But, as Ige noted in his remarks, Hawaii is facing "unprecedented" challenges from climate change, heat waves, coral bleaching, degraded reefs, declining ocean populations and greater man-made pollution such as runoffs.
In addition to the shark-protection bill, Ige signed eight other related measures. They cover a range of issues focused on ocean conservation, resource management, regulation and enforcement.

Demi Lovato On Body Image: "Staying Strong Is Worth It"
In 2010 former Disney popstar Demi Lovato shocked her fans by admitting she had an eating disorder and a problem with cutting, and took time out of her career to go into treatment. All of a sudden she became an inspiration for so many other young girls who were struggling to also get help and realize there is no shame in struggling with either of these issues.
In 2012, after a period of recovery and slowly getting back on her feet with her music, she tweeted that "Most models are thinner than 98 percent of Americans. Instead of trying to change our bodies, how about we try to change our culture?" on National Eating Disorder Awareness week.
In 2014, just after the annual MTV VMAs, she showed yet again how far she has come on her journey to body acceptance in a two year span.
Demi posted a pic of herself on Instagram at 4 different VMA awards shows over the years and spoke not about her style evolution, but her healthy mindset.
"This picture makes me feel so many mixed emotions.. I remember the day I wore the dress in the very first picture. I remember asking for spanx to flatten my stomach because I use to feel so heavy and 'fat'," she starts off.
She is not alone in feeling that way, yet her words can be a powerful way to empower other young women to change their perception of themselves, given that she is a celebrity with quite a bit of influence.
"It TRULY just goes to show you that your perceptions can lie to you," she continued. "OR they can make you learn to enjoy life. Fortunately looking at the picture of myself in the red dress yesterday, I not only feel so grateful for the love and support I've had from fans, friends and family, but… I also feel.. beautiful.
Calling herself beautiful and not feeling guilty or ashamed is a strong statement to make. We live in a culture where we are subconsciously taught not to value ourselves unless we look like the images in a magazine or in a commercial, and to achieve that look we must spend a lot of time and energy changing who we are.
Studies show that only 5% of women naturally possess the body type portrayed in advertising and media, so that means the remaining 95% of women are walking around feeling unhappy about themselves. Even celebrities fall into this later category, as Demi Lovato has shown. But her journey to recovery, which is still an ongoing process as with a lot of addicts and sufferers, shows that it starts with yourself and your mind.
Yes girlfriend, and amen! Staying strong in indeed worth every ounce of your energy. We hope this message will empower you to live your life knowing your worth isn't measured by any external value, but by what you have inside you. When you nurture and allow that to grow, your self-image will follow suit.

The client, a large Midwest manufacturer, provides health care benefits to over 8,000 Medicare eligible retirees. They intend to maintain the benefit promises, but were concerned about rising costs and the long-term stability of the program.
RDS Services, LLC and the client worked together to re-open prior year RDS applications. The goal was to recoup subsidy, therefore building program stability that allows the client to maintain retiree benefit promises.
The client contracted RDS Services, LLC to provide ongoing management and oversight to their RDS Program. Because RDS Services, LLC had the tools and knowledge to manage the client's RDS program, the ongoing administration and aggregation support would ensure that the client continued to receive the maximum subsidy available to them.


Sal has been writing, recording, and performing his own music for more than 20 years. He loves performing live, especially in intimate settings because knowing that you have shared something significant is a feeling like no other.
Recently, he has performed at places like the Eisemann Center for the Performing Arts in Richardson, TX; the Dixie Center for the Arts in Ruston, LA; the Jefferson Parish Library in Metairie, LA; the Old US Mint in New Orleans; the Mary C. O'Keefe in Ocean Springs, MS.


Last week I watched the Peter Jackson film about the Great War 'They should not grow old' and many elements of it are still floating around in my head. One of which was the immense feelings of comradeship towards each other in such hideous circumstance, and also the complete and collective dread of returning to the Frontline. Returning soldiers came home with a complex mix of Shell Shock, guilt and the fact that no-one could ever understand what they had gone through. The in-group bias was so strong as a consequence of their experience.
In-group bias is a cognitive distortion and can be termed as the tendency to trust and value people who are like ourselves; who share our experiences. With that, however, there is an increased danger of assumed similarity and the belief that others have similar thoughts or attitudes to our own. This then, in turn, may distort our thinking into making assumptions about how that group behave. This brings us to the need of 'staying woke'. Labelling these groups, whoever they are: teachers, young people, investment bankers, the millennials, is easy to do but one slips easily into stereotype. We are in fact, de-humanising them. A dangerous error.
Credibility and respect in the teaching profession is quickly lost, once the intensity of teaching a class of thirty plus on a full time basis is not shared. Once the very real pressures of time and immediate management of 30 human beings all day, every day, plus the obvious teaching and learning expectations are not felt by others, it is really hard to not fall into the trap of a thinking error.
So how to keep it real with the frontline? How to keep a finger on the pulse of the organization, so you can lead more effectively? This story from the Harvard Business Review is a great one to highlight how the ego of being at the top of the hierarchy can be damaging without real connection.
So how am I keeping it real? Well, currently two ways: I teach a mixed age/ ability group how to play chess every Monday as an after school club in a local primary school. Secondly, I have started watching School on the BBC. Now that's one to watch.
What does coaching in schools really do?

France's rediscovered snide side helps seal Six Nations win over Ireland

It was far from pretty and even farther from perfect, but France added a second narrow victory to their portfolio. Guy Novès has two out of two, making him on paper about as successful as a new coach can be. The reality was that France slogged through the rain a little less painfully than Ireland.
France's Maxime Médard scores try to shred Ireland's Six Nations hopes
There may well be an aftertaste to the meal – to call it a feast would be gastronomically wide of the mark. In their keenness to target Jonathan Sexton, France were a little wayward. Or just very late. Yonn Maestri and Wenceslas Lauret couldn't resist giving the fly-half a little nudge in the back, seconds after the ball had gone. Bargès en passant, that may interest the citing commissioner.
Sexton left the field, clouted once too often – not so much by these basement-bargain shots as by the swirl of limbs that went with France's mounting frenzy for the match-winning try. Sexton was the last victim, dazed and bowed, but it could be said that at least he left at a time when Ian Madigan was being considered for entry off the bench.
He was, that is, part of the managed coming and going. What took a much heavier toll were the injuries to Sean O'Brien, Dave Kearney and Mike McCarthy, knocked clean out, in the first half. The wing seemed to damage a shoulder in a terrifying – and yet magnificent – tackle on him by Guilhem Guirado, a horizontal drive by the hooker that threatened to shake Kearney apart. To injury only a shoulder may have been to escape lightly. The threat of serious damage in the modern game shows no sign of going down any time soon.
O'Brien seemed to hurt his knee while executing a side-step to the dummy he had just sold. Injured by excess of skill – a rare way to do yourself damage. Considering he was only just back from injury, this was utterly depressing for a player built to be the very best at what the French call le puncheur – not of people but of holes.
Ireland then had a day of improvising, which they took in their stride until late in the game. They controlled the first half with the calmness that goes with being the reigning champions and at ease in each other's company. They are masters of rugby without fuss and on this day of fine vertical rain they were in their element. It looked for all the wet world that they were on course for beating France for the fourth time in succession, the first time they would have achieved this since the late 1920s.
Instead, as the long dark minutes wore on and as the French rejigged their front row, taking off the heavyweights, Uini Atonio and Jefferson Poirot, and bringing on the more compact scrummagers, Eddy Ben Arous and Rabah Slimani, the game settled into a period drama. It became a scrum-fest out of the 1980s – which may trigger nostalgia but is not what the 2016 Six Nations is supposed to promote.
Ireland didn't exactly retreat at pace at the set piece, but they gave enough ground to turn the referee, Jaco Peyper, against them. It also brought the crowd to life and the hymns and arias rang around the Stade like they used to reverberate around the Parc des Princes. This was truly a throwback occasion now.

The strange thing was that after four resets at the critical moment and place – under the Ireland posts with 10 minutes to go – the try did not come with a massive heave and bobble of the ball to the line under the No8's feet. In that respect, this was more like the try by Taulupe Faletau for Wales against Ireland, the result of ball squirting out of the side of a scrum before a drive could be concerted. Improvisation. Wonders never ceased last Sunday and they didn't stop here either.
France had gone for the same as Wales – the big heave – when the ball came out as channel one. It was the biggest flashback moment of the day, a little piece of kitchen-sink drama, when sides that feared the might of the crushing scrums of those days used to open up a gap between the loosehead prop's legs and fly the ball out of the scrum asap.
It was obviously not meant to happen here but it had the desired effect. Maxim Médard has run beautiful lines in two games now, a glider to compare with the B52 bomber that is Virimi Vakatawa. The full-back slid inside Robbie Henshaw and took Jules Plisson's pass and scored.
It was the only try of the game. How very 80s. And it left France protecting a one-point lead. They played their most effective rugby in doing so. Scoring – or even creating chances – may be a problem for new France but they held on lustily. They may be excessive off the ball at given moments but there are clear signs that they are prepared to go many an extra mile to be part of a rebuilding process. This was horrible in many respects – petulant and mean – but it is part of a healthy process. France and their public have reconnected.

Amazing New Process Treats Wastewater, Captures Carbon and Makes Renewable Energy /
Amazing New Process Treats Wastewater, Captures Carbon and Makes Renewable Energy
Trent Knoss
Cleaning up municipal and industrial wastewater can be dirty business, but engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder have developed an innovative wastewater treatment process that not only mitigates carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, but actively captures greenhouse gases as well.
The treatment method, known as Microbial Electrolytic Carbon Capture (MECC), purifies wastewater in an environmentally-friendly fashion by using an electrochemical reaction that absorbs more CO2 than it releases while creating renewable energy in the process.
"This energy-positive, carbon-negative method could potentially contain huge benefits for a number of emission-heavy industries," said Zhiyong Jason Ren, an associate professor of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering at CU-Boulder and senior author of the new study, which was recently published in the journal Environmental Science and Technology.
Wastewater treatment typically produces CO2 emissions in two ways: the fossil fuels burned to power the machinery, and the decomposition of organic material within the wastewater itself. Plus, existing wastewater treatment technologies consume high amounts of energy. Public utilities in the United States treat an estimated 12 trillion gallons of municipal wastewater each year and consume approximately 3 percent of the nation's grid energy.

Opened in 2010, the Central Water Reclamation Facility (CWRF) in Pensacola, Florida, is a $316-million-dollar, state-of-the-art wastewater treatment facility that processes 22.5 million gallons per day. It is the largest public works project in the history of Escambia County (image: Emerald Coast Utilities Authority)
Existing carbon capture technologies are energy-intensive and often entail costly transportation and storage procedures. MECC uses the natural conductivity of saline wastewater to facilitate an electrochemical reaction that is designed to absorb CO2 from both the water and the air. The process transforms CO2 into stable mineral carbonates and bicarbonates that can be used as raw materials by the construction industry, used as a chemical buffer in the wastewater treatment cycle itself or used to counter acidity downstream from the process such as in the ocean.
The reaction also yields excess hydrogen gas, which can be stored and harnessed as energy in a fuel cell.
The findings offer the possibility that wastewater could be treated effectively on-site without the risks or costs typically associated with disposal. Further research is needed to determine the optimal MECC system design and assess the potential for scalability.
"The results should be viewed as a proof-of-concept with promising implications for a wide range of industries," said Ren.
Power companies have many reasons to perk up at the possibility of a carbon-negative wastewater treatment solution. The Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Power Plan, expected to take full effect in the year 2020, will require power plants to comply with reduced CO2 emission levels.
The study may also have positive long-term implications for the world's oceans. Approximately 25 percent of CO2 emissions are subsequently absorbed by the sea, which lowers pH, alters ocean chemistry and hence threatens marine organisms, especially coral reefs and shellfish. Dissolved carbonates and bicarbonates produced via MECC, however, could act to chemically counter these effects if added to the ocean.

"This treatment system generates alkalinity through electrochemical means and we could potentially use that to help offset the effects of ocean acidification," said Greg Rau, a senior researcher at the Institute of Marine Sciences at the University of California Santa Cruz and a co-author of the study. "This is one of several environmentally-friendly things this technology does."
Many wastewater treatment plants are located on coastlines, raising the possibility that future MECC implementation in these facilities could couple both CO2 and ocean acidity mitigation.
Lu Lu and Zhe Huang, both graduate researchers in the Department of Civil, Environmental, and Architectural Engineering at CU-Boulder, co-authored the study. The National Science Foundation provided funding for the research.

went deep(er) into Desolation Wilderness but didn't take a full day due the to logistics of getting to the trail and back.
we could finish mid-afternoon so that there is time left to meet up with José and Casper somewhere.
allowed José and Casper to meet up with us without a car.
Joep and I needed the car to get to the trailhead before dawn. For any point-to-point hike, we would either have to use public transport or hitchhike to get back to the car. For José and Casper to meet us anywhere they would have to rely on public transport.
Lake Tahoe's public transport is a mishmash of services by two different agencies: Tahoe Truckee Area Regional Transit (TART), who services Tahoe's North shore and Tahoe Transportation District (TTD), which covers the rest of the lake's shores. The West shore —where we were staying, has a particularly confusing set of services available. The lines operated by TART don't extend beyond Tahoma. And TTD's service appears to go only as far north as Emerald Bay in the service overview below.
Upon closer inspection the Emerald Bay Trolley (now called Emerald Bay Shuttle) does run all the way north to the Tahoe City Transit Center. And does in fact, stop at Sunnyside, not far from our cabin.
Perfect! For only $2/person José and Casper can ride the trolley to Emerald Bay, the end point of our hike. Joep and I can take the car to the trailhead in Meeks Bay and leave it there. The four of us will ride the trolley back to the car after we spend the afternoon in Emerald Bay visiting Vikingsholm.
I mapped out our route on the excellent CalTopo site and exported Way Points to the Topo Maps app on my iPhone. The interactive CalTopo map is linked below.
CalTopo also produces these nice elevation profiles, including slope angle, tree cover and aspect information.
Joep and I crept out of bed as quiet as mice in an effort not to wake up Casper & José. We got to our trailhead in Meeks Bay in no time thanks to empty roads at this early hour. Where we self-registered our day permit, dropped it off in the "iron ranger" and were off by 6:20 AM as it was just getting light.
We warmed up in the first 1.5 almost flat miles along Meeks Creek. A quick gradual climb brought us to Lake Genevieve where we saw the sun kiss its western shore.
Taking advantage of the cool morning we continued past backpackers emerging from their tents to Stony Ridge Lake.
The trail hugs the western shore below a "stony ridge" I can only imagine the lake is named after.
The terrain steepens and we encounter the first switchbacks from where we look back onto a lovely view of Stony Ridge Lake.
The terrain levels out and reveals Rubicon Lake where we enjoy 2nd breakfast.
At Rubicon Lake, the trail turns South West towards Phipps Pass, at 8800', our high point of the hike. Halfway along the traverse of the South East face of Phipps Peak, there is narrow gully that has snow until late into the summer. Even now, on August 20, 2017 there is still snow, thanks to the high snowfall last winter. The gully is relatively steep and the snow can be difficult to get onto, so we don't know what to expect. All we know is that the snow is passable.
We get our first glimpse of the snow soon after leaving Rubicon Lake.
It doesn't look bad at all. The snow is a good 6' tall and ablated to a 45° overhang where it crosses the trail. By going down the slope towards the tip of the snow we can climb onto the snow and scamper across.
And without mishap, we're both across.
Up and onwards to Phipps Pass, which is just around the bend.
The view widens when we cross Phipps Pass. The pass has a grand view of the granite world of Desolation Wilderness.
We're losing altitude on the other side of the pass. Gradually at first but ever faster until the trail levels out again and meets up with the Pacific Crest Trail. Which we follow to the Velma Lakes.
Middle Velma Lake slowly reveals itself. First, we encounter a few "fingers" but soon we lunch on its South shore. A gentle breeze keeps us cool and we rest our feet in the cold water. Sooo refreshing!
We start to try and reach Casper on the walkie-talkie 2 way radio we carry. We're no longer in cell range. The last contact we had with José and Casper was from Phipps pass. No luck. Can't tell if we're too far apart, or blocked by the last hump we have to hike over or if it is something else.
We cross the hump and descend steeply to Eagle Lake, a small alpine lake less than a mile from the Eagle Lake parking lot. It is pretty but also crawling with people!
Still no radio contact. We're starting to wonder if our battery is running low. They should definitely be within range by now. We wait awhile, thinking they might be hiking in to see the lake.
But after eating a bar or two, there is nothing left to do but head to the parking lot. Where we don't find them. On to the Vikingsholm parking lot across the street. Also nothing. We're combing the parked cars along the road. Again nothing. This is not as planned!
Joep and I decide to split. He will continue looking and try the radio from time to time, while I will go get our car. Of course, I just missed the Emerald Bay Trolley, the next one is in an hour. Hitchhiking it is!
Out step Casper & José. They tell a tale of woe. Their South bound trolley never showed. So, they hopped on a TART bus but didn't go far enough and had to get out and try the trolley again. Missed the trolley. Started hitchhiking but got out too soon. Didn't know where they were exactly, yet tried to walk to Emerald Bay. Found out it was too far and started hitchhiking again, which brought them here. And their walkie-talkie never worked.
Reunited we set off to find Joep, who we find near the Lower Eagle Falls. We hang out at the falls for a while, playing in the water and enjoying that everything worked out in the end.
We hike down to Vikingsholm which we explore (from the outside) and hang out at Emerald Bay's beach before we head back up to the trolley stop.
At long last, we get to ride the open air trolley. On Casper & José's 3rd attempt, they finally make it onto the trolley.
The trolley —of course, has a mind of its own. I spot our destination stop at the last second and pull the cord, yet the driver doesn't want to stop. I have to walk over to her and ask her to stop. We walk the 1/3 mile back to the car, relieved that she didn't take us all the way to the next stop.
I recorded our hike on Strava, where you can retrace our progress and see how we did.
You can hike in either direction, from Meeks Bay to Emerald Bay as we did or from Emerald Bay to Meeks Bay. I recommend starting in Meeks Bay so that your climbs are much more gradual.
You can do it as a day hike like we did. Or you can do it as an overnight hike. When Casper was 6, he and I did the same hike as a 3 day, 2 night hike. We picked up our permit at a ranger station, parked the car at Emerald Bay, took the trolley to Meeks Bay and hiked the first day to Crag Lake. Roughly a 6 mile day. The 2nd day we hiked another 6 miles to Middle Velma Lake with enough time to spare to play in the lake. On day 3 we hiked the last 6 miles out to our car at Emerald Bay. The shorter days allowed Casper to hike about half the distance himself and ride on my shoulders the remaining miles.
Camping at a lake offered young Casper plenty to entertain himself with. Plus the company of other campers (including a dog!) so that he wasn't always alone with his "poppy".
A wedding, a super blue blood moon and a parent/teacher conference. Plus the start of Beginning Welding class.
Casper's twelfth birthday and birthday party. Google Play Books launches Audiobooks, it's great! Ursula le Guin's death made me remember her Earthsea series. And stopping subscriber spam on this blog.
