I did some digging, and found an ADA guidelines document from the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation. Look at page 3, which details all the technical requirements. It is from 2007...
Once in Yosemite Vally, I saw a sign that one fork of a paved trail was marked as handicap accessible because it was less steep than the other fork that led to the same destination. How steep/what ...
Taken June 4, 2020, in the Golan Heights, Israel, while out on a bike ride, with my Samsung Galaxy A10s phone camera. Like me, partly wilting in the heat, but also persevering.
(For reference: I am a cyclist. I train with professionals, although I don't plan on becoming a pro myself, and I'm currently finishing up getting my cycling coaching license.) Yes, adjusting your ...
The derailleur can be adjusted just fine with the bike upside down. Flipping the bike doesn't change the side to side alignment of how the chain is fed to the gear set. However, one thing to watc...
TGO community ads for 2020 need to be posted on meta here https://outdoors.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/1608/community-promotion-ads-2020 I don't have the time or the skills to create the ad....
I'm not sure about how "right" using SE's community promotion ads against themselves is. I'd like to stick-it to SE too, but this feels morally wrong. However, here's an alternate idea, and what ...
Stack Exchange sites that are not beta support community-curated ads. The Great Outdoors is one such site, and obviously there's some support on meta there for this community, so have y'all consid...
Cambridge, UK; poppy; June 2018. Nikon D5300; playing with some new macro extension rings. I can't remember what lens I used, which is poor record-keeping.
I found this beautiful Round Lobed Hepatica (Anemone americana) in the wild in Groton Massachusetts on 23 April 2020. The flower almost seemed to glow against the leaf litter of the forest floor.
I call this "perseverance" -- early spring 2018, Pittsburgh.
If your hands get too warm with gloves on, take the gloves off! My hands get sweaty too when shoveling snow. If you keep doing exercise, your hands might be quite comfortable with the gloves off....
I don't know much about web software, but these multiple accounts should be merged somehow. The one I deliberately created here should be the "real" account. Even better, there should be something...
I noticed that some of the posts I wrote on SE Outdoors were imported, apparently to give the illusion of more activity here than there really is. It was a little disconcerting to see that, althou...
While biking in general is on topic for Outdoors, the nitty gritty of bike mechanics and the like is better left for a site specific to bicycles.
This isn't a direct answer to your question, but there are very few roads in the White Mountains that are open to the public that can't be used by passenger cars. A Subaru Forester would certainly...
Rules that are always applicable are as follows: One photo per answer, and no more than 5 answers per user per contest. Post only photos taken by yourself/person with you. All entries should incl...
Let's start by seeing what the largest solar cell you could practically carry hiking could get you. Light weight solar cells are thin and fragile, but let's ignore that for now. Let's say you can...
That is almost certainly a domesticated skunk. Yes, people do keep skunks as pets. I visited someone once that had a pet skunk. It was actually quite effectionate.
Sorry, but I don't think gardening is a valid topic for Outdoors. On SE there was a separate site for gardening, so the distinction was more clear. Yes, it is literaly outdoors, but that's not ho...
Yes, turning the bike upside down is the best way to adjust the derailleur without a bike stand. It puts the derailleur closer to you and keeps both wheels and pedals free of the ground. The only s...
Pinch off (kill) the smaller of the two plants. Leave just the roots and base of the smaller plant. Anything else you do is going to adversely effect the larger/better plant.
The skunk is clearly not angry or afraid. The woman has something the skunk wants and expects to get. Could be food, could be attention. I have a rabbit in my house that follows me just like th...
Two weeks ago I planted two small cherry-tomato seedlings ("tidy treats" variety; the description used words like "small" and "compact") into one 10" pot. I now know that's too close; I'm a beginn...
There is a video on reddit where a skunk is chasing a woman around. It's not spraying or even threatening to spray, but it's sure trying to keep up with her. Why would a skunk be doing that?
