Recently I climbed a 2000 m mountain and at about 1600 m where trees were about 1 m tall, there was immense amount of flies and similar insects. There was no problem with insects lower where trees were taller nor higher where trees disappeared. Can anyone explain this phenomenon?

There are only two kinds of people. People who know about merino wool and use it and people who don't. Truly amazing material.

But the urea on the DEF nozzle is free at wny truck stop. You can scrape it off and use it to fertilize your crops.

I woke up today to see this. Seemingly over night out of no where my radish plants that i intended to let flower are hit by some plague of tiny little bugs. hundreds of them. Out of desperation i grabbed my neem oil and started blasting without regard or restraint as i panicked. Our radishes didnt bulb, we decided to let them live for the flowering. Please help idk what to do this is my first time ever trying to garden.I have a very healthy pepper plant growing next to them, seemingly unaffected but im worried they'll migrate to it next! god help me and my green babies. Need advise or info on what to do. or atleast someone to tell me what they are so i have a place to start researching. I dont wanna kill the plants and rip em out, theyve come so far but if i have to, to save the others, god help me, i will!

Trying to do a little automated planning of this trek innawoods
Trying to go from the black arrow on the right to the black arrow on the left.
On the right, there's a slope-map calculated, where 0deg is black and 89deg (it's a .5 meter dem, so 90 isn't very well represented) is white.
My question is how the fuck I can plan a switchback path on the hard part. The section right next to the cliff is covered in LARGE scree (ranging from a person's size to a bus), but some LLM recommended using the grass walk and path algorithms--unfortunately, they don't calculate SHIT. I think I've gotta modulate the slope path somehow to say I don't want to walk more than a 6% grade to get there, within reason.

Anyone deal with this shit before? What do you do in order to plan a big walk?

Why aren't there hiking suites?! you know like the still suites in Dune

I’ll be spending a few weeks in/around stehekin, Washington in March. Tips, stories, advice on what to see and do would be appreciated.

if there is nothing to do, then you can kill people in an anonymous chat. That's how I gutted a man
