We were away for a week and left it on the side of the road. Doesn't look like they were particularly competent, as they ruined the ignition but didn't manage to start it.

They left quite a mess, bit annoyed to be honest.

Not involved at all (apart from some posts) but thought it was a pretty cool idea.

Users submit recent snow/ice/river/track observations so you can have a rough idea what you're in for.

Did you see the interview from afterwards? https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=WwUoq6Gdk-g

He's always been a pretty controversial figure, but I feel like he used to be a bit wittier and more coherent. Definitely seems like he's gone off the rails the last few years.

Already there! Good suggestions though

Also added Small Planet, which I'd somehow forgotten about :D

Sweet, added! I hadn't seen Aarn packs before, seems like they make some cool stuff!

I wanted results which would prioritise things like fiordlandpacks.nz, cactusoutdoor.co.nz and southernlitepacks.co.nz. As you can see, it was only partially successful but I feel like it's still useful.

The source for the filter is https://gist.github.com/fallaciousreasoning/c7d10b8db5449fb62b601ddf111003a3 - let me know if you think there are some NZ based sites I should include.

 

Brave Search released a feature a which lets you customize search results. It's always a bit of a hassle searching for gear which is either made in NZ or ships to NZ, so I had a go at making one which prioritises outdoors gear which is made here (or failing that, is sold here).

You can test it here

Disclaimer: I work at Brave, though not on the search team

To be honest, not heaps of gear on the pitch - it's pretty cruisy climbing though (maybe 15, in Ewbanks)

Just not consistently full - definitely people in them, just not all the time. Only time everything is full is the school holidays...

Oh yeah, the only empty houses are all the AirBnBs (at my weekly rent every night) or lock'n'leaves. Probably 2/3rds of my street is empty most of the time. Rentals can't be had for love or money, we got lucky with ours at the end of covid.

 

Property market is pretty crazy down here

Hope it's all good - did mine (pretty mildly) this time last year and it was easily 4 or 5 months before it felt back to normal.

Take it easy!

[–] fallaciousreasoning 5 points 1 year ago (3 children)

How'd you pull that off?

 

Sorry for all the spam, having a travelling day and reading more than normal.
