Iβm attempting Kilimanjaro via the eight day Lemosho route in a couple of weeks, and I would love some advice/feedback on clothing/layering choices from those that have experience with similar trips. I have good amount of experience in the mountains, but not a ton at high altitude.

Much of the southwestern United States was once a vast high-elevation plateau, similar to Tibet today. This finding has implications for the distribution of natural resources, such as copper, and provides insight into the formation of mountains during the subduction of tectonic plates.

Best Grippy & High Mileage Tires for the Street, Occasional Track Day, & Semi-Reg Mountain Run
Its time to put new tires on my 2012 Daytona 675, but having a tough time navigating the sea of tires before me. I'm looking for something that heats up quickly, provides tons of grip leaned over, but durable enough to last 4k+ miles. I realize that grip and life are on opposing sides of the spectrum, but I'd like to get as close to a happy medium as possible. As far as riding style, I'm not super aggressive during my commute or just cruising around. I take a couple known turns kinda hard and ride a little more spirited in the mountains. Not dragging knee or hard parts just yet, but after a mountain run I scrub nearly all my chicken strips. Maybe its the lowside i was in a couple years ago, but I want to have the best equipment for any situation.
Research so far has me between:
- Dunlop Q3+
- Bridgestone S22
- Mich. Road 4/5
TL;DR: Which of the above tires are a good compromise between grip and tire wear for a semi-chill sportbike rider?

Because mountain lions usually wander the wilderness alone, scent scraping sometimes isnβt enough to locate each other for mating. A female mountain lion will ascend to a high elevation and call to a male by caterwauling, a loud blood-curdling, screeching cry that can be heard up to 5 miles away.

I made a list and Google Map with the high points of every mountain range and major plateau in Utah.
Good morning.
First of all allow me to apologize for moving to Utah earlier this year, I know it's getting crowded. Lol. I've been trying to explore as much as possible while I've been here. I started going down the rabbit hole of looking up all the different little mountain ranges in the west desert. And eventually I thought a great way to explore the state would be to set a goal to try and reach the highest peak of every mountain range in the state.
So I started digging, found some other lists, and my list kept growing and growing. On top of plateaus and ranges I also added a few interesting high points like sand mountain, and the (I think) high points of the Roan and Book cliffs. I ended up with 92 total points.
Some of the remote ranges were difficult to get good info on and locate the HP. A few I had to just scan on maps and pick what looked like the highest point.
But anyway, below is the link to the list, and the link to the google map is on there at the top. If you have any to add or corrections to make, just let me know! Ultra prominent peaks are bolded, and I'll be highlighting points as I personally hit them. There are some notes as well.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11LoNe4XmYM-1eUR861qX7IwmX79WPj8UHfARWmNaago/edit?usp=sharing
Edit: Forgot to add that the "Drive to trailhead" calculation is estimating from Layton where I currently live. If it says "4x4", that means I could see a vehicle trail to the peak or very close to the peak on satellite view in maps.
If you wanna follow along with our exploration of Utah, me and my wife's instas are @j.d.dietrich and @cari_dee

What choice do you prefer to have after you die? Do u want to be buried in a cemetery or cremated and placed in a urn? Do you wish your ashes to spread in a place special to you like the mountains, a tree, the ocean, high school football field, White House lawn?

High Top Mountain - Album of the Week -12/1 - 12/7
#High Top Mountain
High Top Mountain is the first studio album by Sturgill Simpson.
Simpsonβs first effort is definitely a solid listen. It leans more towards a typical country album, more in the style of the Appalachian sound. Simpson sings about his Kentucky roots (βHeroβ, βOld King Coalβ) and his life (βRailroad of Sinβ) in an album that sounds more like an autobiography. The opening track, βLife Ainβt Fairβ¦β, just tells the listener what theyβre in for in both musical and lyrical style. This album is the perfect introduction to Sturgill Simpson.
