Whiteface Mountain, Lake Placid, NY 2019
While visiting the Adirondacks during Labor Day weekend 2019, we took a day trip up to Lake Placid city and to Whiteface Mountain, home of the 1932 & 1980 Winter Olympics.
What breathtaking views from the summit. You can drive up close to the summit, via Veterans Memorial Highway which is full of wonderful views, and then park at the end by the castle gift shop/ restaurant.
From the parking at the top of Veterans Memorial Highway, visitors can either enter a tunnel in the mountain to ride the elevator up to the summit, or there's the option to hike up to the summit.
This is a video of our hike up to the summit and the incredible views, and on a clear day one can see Vermont and Montreal, Canada.

RUMRUNNER'S PARADISE
New Year's Eve, 1915 was a party to end all parties in Spokane. At the stroke of midnight, every saloon in the state would be out of business. This would be the last call before statewide prohibition would be enacted, closing the taps four years before the rest of the nation. But even as revelers saluted the new dry year, a lucrative wet underworld was forming between Spokane and Canada.

The Most Astounding Information Ever!! 5
Geospatial Forum: Dr. Karl Wegmann
Speaker: Dr. Karl Wegmann | Associate Professor of Geology, Department of Marine, Earth and Atmospheric Sciences | North Carolina State University
Presentation Title: Earth First! We'll Log the Other Planets Later: Digital Removal of Vegetation for Geologic Hazard Research
Abstract: In heavily forested environments, the digital deletion of vegetation through lidar remote sensing and the generation of bare-earth digital elevation models has enhanced our abilities to observe and quantify geologic hazards. In this forum Dr. Wegmann will present examples from studies in Washington, Colorado, and North Carolina where lidar datasets allow for improved identification and quantification of landslide, debris flow, and earthquake hazards. For example, the 2014 Oso debris avalanche in Washington State killed 43 people. Lidar-based digital elevation models reveal that pre-historic landforms with characteristics similar to the deadly 2014 event exist along the formerly glaciated valley bottoms of western Washington, suggesting that events like this may be more common than previously thought.

Humans and Conflicts With Bears: Oh My! – AMNH SciCafe
Anyone who has ever surprised a black bear in their own backyard is already keenly aware of the overlap between human communities and bear habitats. Rae Wynn-Grant, a conservation biologist at the Museum, offered insights into black bear behavior and what humans can do to improve relations with this wide-ranging and adaptable species at a recent SciCafe program, which took place at the Museum on October 4, 2017.

Great Lakes
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Great Lakes (French: les Grands-Lacs), also called the Laurentian Great Lakes and the Great Lakes of North America, are a series of interconnected freshwater lakes located primarily in the upper mid-east region of North America, on the Canada–United States border, which connect to the Atlantic Ocean through the Saint Lawrence River. They consist of Lakes Superior, Michigan, Huron, Erie, and Ontario, although hydrologically, there are four lakes, Superior, Erie, Ontario, and Michigan-Huron.
The Great Lakes are the largest group of freshwater lakes on Earth by total area, and second largest by total volume, containing 21% of the world's surface fresh water by volume. The total surface is 94,250 square miles (244,106 km2), and the total volume (measured at the low water datum) is 5,439 cubic miles (22,671 km3), slightly less than the volume of Lake Baikal (23,615 km³, 22–23% of the world's surface fresh water). Due to their sea-like characteristics (rolling waves, sustained winds, strong currents, great depths, and distant horizons) the five Great Lakes have also long been referred to as inland seas. Not counting Lake Michigan-Huron, Lake Superior is the second largest lake in the world by area, and the largest freshwater lake by area. Lake Michigan is the largest lake that is entirely within one country.The Great Lakes began to form at the end of the last glacial period around 14,000 years ago, as retreating ice sheets exposed the basins they had carved into the land which then filled with meltwater. The lakes have been a major source for transportation, migration, trade, and fishing, serving as a habitat to a large number of aquatic species in a region with much biodiversity.
The surrounding region is called the Great Lakes region, which includes the Great Lakes Megalopolis.
