I mean, skipping heat lamps just risks their health in extreme cold, idk.

Hold on, you're just accepting that trails take forever to fix? That seems like giving up too easy. Why should we settle for months of closure when people want to get outside? I've watched crews patch up spots in no time when they really want to. Isn't the bigger issue that we don't make them hurry up? If we all just shrug, then nothing changes. What good is a trail if it's always blocked off?

Heating it up isn't about being new, @the_laura, it's about getting a better fit with less spring back. The steel might bend cold, but it holds the shape way nicer when it's hot. Saves me time fixing it later, lol.

Used to skip breakfast every day. Having a real meal in the morning completely changed my energy levels though.

Opening a window helps clear that burnt smell fast.
