Mr.Pibbleton posted:Oh man I've never heard of ice rush gathering, that sounds super freaky. Chiming in to say I've watched a doco that had this stuff happening too. As someone who has done a bit of exploratory limestone caving I can tell you gently caress that noise. The idea of having a cave that will trap you from escaping with the water rising to cut you off, the roof above you melting to cut you off and / or just straight up getting lost and dying down there left me with sweaty palms just watching it. In the doco I watched this guy was the only one left in his tribe who still did it because it was too crazy for everyone else.

Epoxy Bulletin posted:I think my favorite was the time I picked up a pair of german backpackers hitching back from Girdwood, and while making small talk I mentioned the termination dust was coming down early this year. They exchanged worried looks and asked if we could pull over at the next place that might have breath masks. I'd be pretty freaked out too if someone said that. Just had to Google it before finding out you just meant first snowfall. Belting along the road with a random who just picked me up would have made that a bit harder.
