Not only OK, but it is a law of nature; many have been the times when I started out breaking trail with no other car or person in sight, only to look behind me 10 minutes later to see a snowshoer had mysteriously appeared, clump-clumping down my track; I believe the origin of snowshoers my be somewhere in the sintering process of snow crystals pressed together by skis.


This statement implies that you are very, very, slow.

Which brings up more thread drift- what is the standard etiquette for maintaining proper spacing while skinning when the group in front is going toooo sloooow? Yell outta my way pokies? Rush forward and hit em in the kneecap with a flicklock?

speaking of slow, I just got home to find my connection is at 1.29 M, but am paying for 1.5. What's the right, or excellent, thing to do?

Wow, you get that much when paying for just about that amount? My neiqhbor and I were just discussing 0.15 we often get when paying for 1.5!

OK have pondered this question and am ready to issue my decision as CEO.

Thread drift is allowed after the first two posts in reply( the 4th actual post)

Carry on!
