Interview with Troy Boisjoli, CEO of ATHA Energy.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/atha-energy-tsxvsask-63m-funded-explorer-scales-up-2026-drill-program-10101Recording date: 13th July 2026ATHA Energy's 2026 exploration program at the Angilak Uranium Project in Nunavut is delivering early evidence that its uranium system extends well beyond the boundaries of its currently defined deposit. With three drill rigs active across two priority areas, the company has reported an 11.5 metre composite uranium mineralization intersection at Lac 50 West, located four kilometres from the known Lac 50 deposit, and a 37 metre composite intersection at RIB North, the widest result recorded at that target to date. Both results support CEO Troy Boisjoli's description of a district-scale opportunity spanning a 21-kilometre corridor at Lac 50 and an 18-kilometre corridor at RIB, rather than a series of isolated deposits.Management has been clear that 2026 is not a delineation year. Drilling is deliberately spaced between 150 and 500 metres apart, designed to establish continuity of mineralization across the wider system before committing to tighter, resource-defining infill drilling, which the company expects could begin in 2027 if results continue to track as planned. This sequencing is a meaningful signal for investors: near-term news flow is likely to focus on scale and continuity rather than resource ounces, and grade or thickness data should be read in that context.The program is well funded, following a $63 million raise in the first quarter of 2026 led by Queens Road Capital, giving the company a stated 24-month runway. ATHA also holds a broader Nunavut and Athabasca Basin land package that management has flagged as a source of potential future value.For investors, the key consideration is that current figures, including the conceptual 60.8 to 98.2 million pound exploration target at Lac 50, are not a defined mineral resource, and the eventual scale of the opportunity depends on whether this year's step-out drilling can be tied into continuous, economically relevant mineralized zones.—Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/atha-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Marketing insurance agents nationwide sounds like a contradiction, but Uptown Marketing founder Martina Barley built a thirteen person, all female agency doing exactly that. Martina joins Fitz at ROC Vox to talk about her path from an unlicensed State Farm sales assistant to the self described "Michael Jordan of sales," and why the confidence that built her business almost got in the way of leading her team.In this episode, you'll learn how Martina grew Uptown Marketing from three founders to thirteen employees, why she believes sales and leadership are two completely different skill sets, how she convinces insurance agents to actually invest in their online presence, and what she tells clients about AI replacing, or not replacing, their jobs.

The Basin and the BetrayerA towel, a basin, and a room full of men who still don't get it. John 13 gives us one of the most confronting pictures of Jesus in all of Scripture, as the King of heaven intentionally chooses the lowest role in the house. In this episode, we read through John 13:1–15 and 34–35 (KJV and NIV) and slow down long enough to feel the weight of this moment: Jesus knows the cross is imminent, he knows Judas is about to betray him, and he still kneels to serve.Inside the episode, we unpack:The Gritty Reality of Foot Washing: Why this wasn't a sweet, symbolic ritual in the first century, but a filthy, demeaning job reserved for the lowest-ranking servants.The Death of Status: How this cultural context shatters our modern focus on pride, image, and status. If the Lord and Teacher stoops this low, where does that leave our excuses?Peter's Mistake & Daily Cleansing: What Peter's dramatic reaction teaches us about salvation versus ongoing spiritual cleansing. We talk honestly about bringing our "dirty feet" to God in daily confession rather than hiding behind a religious mask.If you are looking for a short, Scripture-rich Christian podcast episode on servant leadership, true biblical humility, and what "loving one another" actually looks like, press play.Hit Subscribe so you never miss an episode, share this with a friend who needs encouragement in their faith journey, and leave a review telling us one practical way you plan to love in action this week!===John 13:1-15, 34 & 35  -  King James Version13 Now before the feast of the passover, when Jesus knew that his hour was come that he should depart out of this world unto the Father, having loved his own which were in the world, he loved them unto the end.2 And supper being ended, the devil having now put into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son, to betray him;3 Jesus knowing that the Father had given all things into his hands, and that he was come from God, and went to God;4 He riseth from supper, and laid aside his garments; and took a towel, and girded himself.5 After that he poureth water into a bason, and began to wash the disciples' feet, and to wipe them with the towel wherewith he was girded.6 Then cometh he to Simon Peter: and Peter saith unto him, Lord, dost thou wash my feet?7 Jesus answered and said unto him, What I do thou knowest not now; but thou shalt know hereafter.8 Peter saith unto him, Thou shalt never wash my feet. Jesus answered him, If I wash thee not, thou hast no part with me.9 Simon Peter saith unto him, Lord, not my feet only, but also my hands and my head.10 Jesus saith to him, He that is washed needeth not save to wash his feet, but is clean every whit: and ye are clean, but not all.11 For he knew who should betray him; therefore said he, Ye are not all clean.12 So after he had washed their feet, and had taken his garments, and was set down again, he said unto them, Know ye what I have done to you?13 Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.14 If I then, your Lord and Master, have washed your feet; ye also ought to wash one another's feet.15 For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you.34 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.35 By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.===Matthew 26:39  -  King James Version39 And he went a little farther, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.Send us Fan MailBuzzsprout - Let's get your podcast launched!Start for FREEDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Jon Goehring spent years behind the mic at Rochester radio stations before leaving it to build StoryTrust Media, a podcast production company built on one idea: your stories build trust with your audience whether you mean them to or not. He joins Fitz at ROC Vox to talk about what radio actually prepares you for, why collaboration beat competition in his business, and how two people running similar races figured out they weren't really competing at all.In this episode, Jon explains why he tells his Brockport students not to marry radio, the moment he stopped auditioning for everything and started referring work to other talent, how faith shapes the way he runs StoryTrust, and what he'd tell his 15-year-old self about ignoring everyone else's formula for success. CONNECT StoryTrust Media (Jon Goehring) → https://storytrust.media LimitlessLeadership Lounge → https://limitlessleadershippodcast.comROC Vox → https://rocvox.comNew episodes every Tuesday.Recorded at ROC Vox Recording & Production in Bushnell's Basin, NY.Learn more at https://rocvox.com

Disney Springs and Disney's BoardWalk are both getting a major refresh in 2026 — and this week the Mouse Chat team breaks down every new restaurant, lounge, shop, and entertainment venue worth knowing about. From Gideon's Bakehouse's mysterious savory spin-off to a 45,000-square-foot game palace, plus the long-rumored BoardWalk additions Disney finally confirmed, here's what's coming and when. Ready to turn any of this into a trip? [Get a free, no-fee Disney World quote from Pixie Vacations »](https://pixievacations.com/get-a-quote/?utm_source=mousechat&utm_medium=shownotes&utm_campaign=july2026) ### Disney Springs — New Food & Dining **Six Ravens (Gideon's Bakehouse savory concept) — signage up, opening this summer.** The strongest "almost open" signal yet: signage is now installed at the former Art of Shaving space in The Landing, just a few doors from the original Gideon's. The signature item is the "Coffyn" — a hand pie with sandwich-style fillings wrapped in a house-made yeast roll (a nod to a medieval European pastry) — paired with smashed potatoes and dips like sweet heat and homemade honey mustard. Drinks include local beers crafted with Orlando's Sideward Brewing and The Ravenous Pig, plus root beer on tap. The name nods to the Tower of London and its legendary guardian ravens. Note for listeners: it's grab-and-go, no reservation, and **not** on the Disney Dining Plan. **Kakigori Kool (Morimoto Asia shaved-ice cart) — summer 2026.** Morimoto Asia is adding a snack cart serving Japan's kakigori shaved-ice dessert with fruity syrups and toppings, right outside the restaurant. *Building your Disney Springs dining hit list? Our agents know the new spots and the can't-miss classics — [start a free quote](https://pixievacations.com/get-a-quote/?utm_source=mousechat&utm_medium=shownotes&utm_campaign=july2026) and we'll fold it into your trip.* ### Disney Springs — Entertainment (old DisneyQuest / NBA Experience building) **LEVEL99 — opens June 29, 2026; tickets on sale June 22.** The largest LEVEL99 to date: 60+ challenge rooms and duels across a 45,000-sq-ft, two-story space, plus a chef-crafted menu with their award-winning Detroit-style pizza and a big central bar. Tickets start at $29.99 (1.5- and 2.5-hour intervals). It's the chain's fourth location after Natick, MA; Providence, RI; and Tysons, VA. Fun hooks: the first 500 guests opening day get a commemorative pin, and the date was revealed via an Instagram puzzle fans had to decode. **Vuori + Columbia Sportswear (retail).** Athletic apparel brand Vuori opens at Disney Springs this summer alongside LEVEL99 and Six Ravens, and Columbia Sportswear reopens July 24. ### Disney's BoardWalk — New Lounge, Store & Dining (the big one) Disney officially confirmed the long-rumored BoardWalk additions — all opening starting in late 2026 — finally filling in those empty buildings everyone's been speculating about. (Trying to decide where to stay near Epcot and Hollywood Studios? Listen to [Which Disney World Resort is Perfect for You?](https://mousechat.net/which-disney-world-resort-is-perfect-for-you-mouse-chat-podcast/)) **Hurly-Burly (waterfront lounge) — late 2026.** The headliner: a new waterfront lounge inspired by a historic seaside theater. By day it hosts trivia and family-friendly games; each evening it becomes a live-music venue for guests 21+. It fills the live-entertainment gap left by Jellyrolls, which closed in April 2025 after nearly 30 years. Expect coastal-inspired cocktails, light bites, and a rotating lineup of live performers. **Basin (bath & body retail) — late 2026.** The Disney Springs favorite is opening a BoardWalk location for soaps, bath bombs, bath salts, and body butters — with an interactive twist: create custom bath teas, make your own soaps, and personalize purchases with a soap embossing press, all themed to BoardWalk's vintage seaside look. **New quick-service restaurant — TBA.** Disney confirmed a new quick-service spot is planned but hasn't shared theme, menu, or opening date — more expected later this summer. We'll keep you posted. *Want a BoardWalk-area stay (BoardWalk Inn, Beach Club, or the Swan & Dolphin) so you can walk to Epcot? [Get a free quote](https://pixievacations.com/get-a-quote/?utm_source=mousechat&utm_medium=shownotes&utm_campaign=july2026) and we'll match you to the right resort.* ### Other Newsworthy WDW Items **Disney Springs resort bus verification returns June 28 — and becomes permanent.** A practical heads-up: this makes resort-hopping through Disney Springs noticeably harder. For more on getting around property, hear [Best Options to Get to Disney World](https://mousechat.net/best-options-to-get-to-disney-world-mouse-chat-podcast/). **Good to Go Days added for summer.** WDW Good to Go Days return for summer 2026 with three June dates — June 25, 28, and 29 — letting Annual Passholders visit without a park reservation, subject to blockouts. Check our monthly-updated [Disney World crowd calendar](https://pixievacations.com/disney-world-crowd-calendar/) before you pick dates. **Disney Lakeshore Lodge — first looks.** New first looks at the lazy river and pool area for Disney's Lakeshore Lodge — the new resort coming to the Bay Lake area between Fort Wilderness and Wilderness Lodge, currently slated for 2027. **Bonus tip:** Adding a Disney cruise to your park trip? You can browse and book Disney Cruise Line — and every major line — through our [online cruise booking engine](https://cruise.pixievacations.com/app/0/cruise/0/selection.html?search[vendor_ids][0]=20), no fees.

Bradda Head Lithium Ltd (AIM:BHL) executive chairman Ian Stalker joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss the Whistlejacket lithium project in Arizona and why recent analyst coverage points to a significant valuation opportunity. Stalker said independent research from Greenwood Capital and Shard Capital both concluded the company could be worth considerably more than its current market valuation. He attributed the gap partly to Bradda Head keeping a low profile until the Rio Tinto joint venture was completed, while improving lithium sector sentiment is now drawing renewed investor attention. The Rio Tinto partnership, he noted, has added considerable value through the major's thorough approach to project evaluation. Beyond Whistlejacket, Stalker highlighted the Basin clay project, which already hosts a compliant resource, reinforcing the strategic value of the company's diversified US portfolio. Near-term milestones include drilling expected before the end of July, a maiden compliant resource at Whistlejacket targeted for early 2027, and an internal goal of reaching production by end of 2027. "We're moving from an exploration company... into a resource company, putting them into real numbers, and from that into an operational company where cash flow is a guaranteed successful input," Stalker said. Watch the full interview to hear Ian Stalker's views on Bradda Head Lithium's growth strategy, project development plans and the outlook for the lithium market.

In this episode, we are joined by Lorna Cole, Louise Bond and Alistair McVittie to discuss their collaboration on the newly published CREW report; Natural Capital and River Basin Management Planning, and what its findings could mean for the future of Scotland's water environment and land use.We explore the report's recommendations, including taking a whole-catchment, natural capital approach to river basin management, to consider the wider landscape and the many benefits healthy ecosystems provide. The conversation covers the evidence behind nature-based solutions as well as the opportunities, trade-offs and challenges associated with implementing them at scale.We also examine the economic implications of changing land use, how the value of environmental improvements can be measured, and what future funding models, including public and private investment, blended finance, and emerging environmental markets could mean for farmers and land managers.Host Harry Fisher, Producer Iain Boyd, Editor Kieron Sim, Executive Producer Kirstyn BlackwoodTimestamps:0:53 – 3:44 intros to speakers and CREW3:45 – 9:08 The report, its recommendations, 5 key elements and why this research is crucial9:09 – 17:05 Different nature-based solutions, co-benefits, and trade-offs17:06 – 21:06 how to quantify costs and value of managing land for wider societal good and future markets21:07 – 32:40 Nature based solutions at scale, stakeholders, and mechanismsResources:FAS Water management resources for farmers: https://www.fas.scot/environment/water-management/FAS Natural Capital podcast: https://www.fas.scot/sounds/natural-capital/CREW Natural Capital and River Basin Management Planning - Protecting and Improving Scotland's Water Environment: https://www.crew.ac.uk/publications/natural-capital-and-rbmpFIRNS - The Facility for Investment Ready Nature in Scotland: https://www.nature.scot/funding-and-projects/firns-facility-investment-ready-nature-scotlandScottish Forum on Natural Capital: https://naturalcapitalscotland.com/Nature Finance Exchange: https://naturefinancex.nature.scot/Farming & Water Scotland: https://www.farmingandwaterscotland.org/For more information, visit www.FAS.scotTwitter: @FASScotFacebook: @FASScotNational Advice HubPhone: 0300 323 0161Email: advice@fas.scot

rWotD Episode 3330: Fortified Area of Silesia Welcome to random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Tuesday, 16 June 2026, is Fortified Area of Silesia.The Fortified Area of Silesia (Polish: Obszar Warowny Śląsk) was a set of Polish fortifications, constructed along the interbellum border of Poland and Germany in the area of then-divided Upper Silesia and in the Dąbrowa Basin that is part of Lesser Poland. It spreads from the village of Przeczyce (part of the Dąbrowa Basin) in the north to the town of Wyry in the south, along the line of sixty kilometers. Headquarters of the area was placed in Chorzów and its commandant was General Jan Jagmin-Sadowski.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:11 UTC on Tuesday, 16 June 2026.For the full current version of the article, see Fortified Area of Silesia on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm standard Brian.

Water levels are better than expected following a winter with about half the normal snowpack in the mountains.

We don't know much but from what we do know, it was typically Kane. New Zealand's greatest-ever batsman – and arguably our greatest-ever cricketer. One of the modern game's finest called his teammates for a mid-tour coffee and a chat. No big press conference. No farewell tour. No New Zealand summer or Boxing Day test at the MCG. No standing ovations. No fans. Not even one more single, measly game. In an action typical of the man's famously understated nature, Kane Williamson retired from international cricket. If you're not really a big cricket fan, all good. But if that's the case, it's easy to under-appreciate just significant Kane Williamson's impact has been. I think there's a good argument to be made that on name recognition alone, Kane Williamson is the single most-famous New Zealander on the planet. Not Peter Jackson or Lorde or Jacinda Ardern. Kane Williamson. I remember backpacking through Punjab with my brother a few years ago. Everywhere we went, the locals wanted to ask the New Zealander travellers about a little bearded guy from Tauranga. In South Asia, he's a true household name. Cricket is a game that lends itself gloriously to statistics. For Kane Williamson, the numbers are amazing, but they will never tell the full story. The sport is as political as any other and at the end of the day it's driven by money. Consequently, compared to England, Australia, and India, the Black Caps are starved of tests. Kane Williamson is already considered one of the Fab Four, the greatest batsmen of his generation, but compared to the others, he played far fewer games on average each year. So many memories. Test centuries in eleven countries. Centuries at the Basin. A century at Lords. And a loss in an ODI World Cup final on a boundary count-back after a tie, and a tied super over, surely among most absurd defeat in sporting history. Kane responded with a wry smile and "it's a bit of a shame the ball hit Stokesy's bat." Yeah, you don't say? No athlete has ever had a better claim to bitterness and declined it so completely. Two years later, without the benefits of a home crowd, he captained the Black Caps to the World Test Championship. Redemption. In some ways, Kane Williamson has given us a different model of New Zealand male sporting greatness. He's small. He's soft-spoken. In an age where cricket has increasingly become a contest of brawn and power, he has distinguished himself with guile, wit and temperament. I'll never forget his celebrations when he scored his first test century, because there were none. While his Australian counterparts would scream and whoop and leap and wahoo every time they crossed the threshold, Kane would calmly remove his helmet, gesture once or twice at the crowd and shake his batting partner's hand, wipe the sweat from his brow, and retake his stance. Forever spinning that Grey-Nicolls as the bowler ran to the crease, perfectly balanced, with so much time, watching the ball right under his eyes. Williamson said he stepped away mid-series to “allow other leaders to emerge.” He denied himself the ceremony and the celebration. It might have come as a surprise to those of us who woke up and saw the headlines from overnight, but in many ways, it was the most Williamson thing imaginable. I think I speak for every New Zealand Cricket fan when I say I will miss his presence keenly, but man, I'm so grateful for everything he represented and achieved.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Deep within Central Africa lies one of the least explored regions on Earth—the Congo River Basin. Stretching across millions of acres of dense rainforest, this mysterious landscape has long been associated with unexplained phenomena, strange lights, and encounters that defy conventional explanation. In this extended episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, Joe and Jennifer dive into chilling reports of UFO sightings, glowing orbs, and unexplained aerial objects witnessed by locals, researchers, and even pilots flying over the Congo Basin. Unlike typical UFO hotspots, this region presents a unique pattern: sightings are often tied directly to the environment itself—hovering over rivers, moving through dense jungle, and appearing in areas far removed from modern civilization. But the mystery doesn't stop in the sky. Witnesses have reported something even more unsettling—encounters with tall, shadow-like figures that seem to appear alongside these lights. These entities are often described as moving unnaturally, as if they are not bound by the same physical rules as humans or animals. In some cases, individuals who approached these lights experienced missing time, disorientation, and a lingering sense that they were being watched. This episode also features immersive storytelling elements, including dramatized "found audio" recordings, a reconstructed lost expedition journal, and a terrifying jungle encounter scene designed to place listeners directly inside the experience. These narrative segments are inspired by real patterns found in eyewitness accounts from the region. Are these sightings evidence of extraterrestrial visitation? Unknown natural phenomena? Or something far older—something tied to the land itself? Throughout the episode, Joe and Jennifer explore multiple theories, from advanced aerial technology to ancient, unexplained forces deeply connected to one of the last truly wild places on Earth. If you're fascinated by UFO encounters, unexplained mysteries, cryptid sightings, and real-world paranormal investigations, this episode will take you deep into a place where answers are scarce—and the questions are far more unsettling. Listener discretion is advised. Welcome to the 222 Paranormal Podcast, your gateway to the captivating world of the supernatural.

"Deep Time," a way of understanding the distant past popularized in the late 20th century by the writer John McPhee, changes our perspective on history. When looked at in the context of tectonic movements long-term climate shifts, human affairs can seem small, even insignificant. However, in Deep Time in the Mono Lake Basin: Nature and History Over the Last 10,000 Years (U California Press, 2026), Whittier College professor emeritus Bob Marks explains that people still matter, even within the long sweep of deep time. Rather than shrink human affairs down to nothing, deep time helps us contextualize the places where humans live, die, build societies, and destroy one another. Geology, hydrology, and climate change (anthropogenic and otherwise) are all part of the human story, and vice versa, in Marks' telling.

Welcome to Gospel Rant! Watch me also at DrBillSenyard YouTube channel. Let's walk with Jesus those final steps again. Whirlwind days: Hosanna crowds, waving branches, Jerusalem hope. Yet beneath cheers, fractured—they craved rescuer on their terms. King of imagination, not suffering Servant. Upper room: final meal heavy with meaning. Broken bread. Lifted wine. Betrayer named. Basin water. Son of God washing dusty feet. Departure words. Invisible kingdom. They didn't grasp. Loneliness fogged in. Post‑meal Psalms rise: "Hosanna. Blessed is He who comes." Irony stung—prophetic words, unaware singers. Down Kidron slope. Across the brook. Gethsemane—"olive press." Pressure fitting. Jesus breaks the silence: "Tonight you all fall away." Protests. He knows better. How alone already? Takes Peter, James, and John farther. Past midnight. Twenty hours sleepless. Jesus is beyond tired. "My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch." (Matt 26:38) Goes farther. Falls facedown. “My Father, if possible, may this cup be taken from me…” And my Top 10 Prayer #2: “Yet not my will—Yours be done.” Welcome to the Top 10 Prayers of the New Testament. We will see what you think. Your interaction helps this message reach more people! We’d love your feedback: Bill@gospel-app.com Thanks in advance—and enjoy the series!

The 10-year average falls to 166 inches. Here's the year-by-year breakdown:Trail count: 110 (24% beginner, 25% intermediate, 51% expert)Lift count: 13 (1 pulse gondola, 2 high-speed quads, 2 fixed-grip quads, 4 triples, 1 double, 3 carpets)Why I interviewed himLet's start with a superficially troubling number: Taos' long, steady decline in average annual skier visits:That doesn't look so good, especially when laid alongside the long-term increase in national skier visits:Taos not only declined in the context of national skier visits, but also among its peers. In winter 1983-84, Taos drew more skiers (241,000) than Telluride (132,460), Big Sky (136,000), Jackson Hole (177,000), Whitefish (I'm lacking an estimate for that winter, but the ski area then known as “Big Mountain” logged 209,000 skiers in 1980-81 and 170,581 in 1985-86). Taos (dark blue line below), continued to out-duel this group through about the mid-90s before falling off a cliff:So what happened? 1995 Taos, a freeride mecca before freeride was cool, should have been perfectly suited to flourish in a cultural moment when skiers began demanding more interesting terrain than the groomed superhighways that had become the industry's default setting. Sure, Taos was remote and a bit harder to access than, say, Keystone or Park City, but so were Jackson and Whitefish and Big Sky and Telluride. A partial explanation: Taos stopped modernizing. After replacing the Lift 2 double with a fixed-grip quad in 1994, Taos didn't install another new chairlift for 19 years. The first detachable didn't arrive until 2018. The resort banned snowboards until 2008. Meanwhile, Big Sky laced a tram to the summit of Lone Peak in 1995 and started pushing detachable quads up the mountain; the first high-speed quads arrived at Telluride in 1986 and Whitefish in 1989.It's not a perfect narrative – while Jackson Hole rolled out its short Sublette detach in the mid-90s, the mountain didn't install an upper-mountain high-speed chairlift until Casper in 2012. Skier visits went up and up and up all that time, probably due in large part to aggressive improvements at the Jackson Hole airport.Maybe, though, it's as simple as this: banger snow years descended upon Taos – and New Mexico in general – from the late ‘80s through mid-‘90s. It's little surprise that attendance ups-and-downs largely mirror snowfall patterns:But, as the corresponding trendlines show, Taos' skier visits have not declined at the same rate as the mountain's average annual snowfall. And while Jackson's long-term average snowfall has remained relatively constant, attendance has crept steadily upward. Attendance spiked at both mountains when the 2018-19 season brought both plentiful snow and the introduction of the Ikon Pass:Unfortunately, Taos stopped reporting skier visits after the Covid-shortened 2019-20 season, so we have less concrete insight into whether the mountain's recent investments in a reconfigured beginner area and a second detachable on the backside have insulated it from two historically poor snow years. This is why it's nice to have basic visitation data, and why I'm pushing the ski industry to again publicize annual attendance for ski areas occupying public lands (since going live with a chart of 2,406 years of skier visit data for 97 ski areas with 10 or more years of attendance available, I'm up to 2,822 years across 108 ski areas, and I have a total of 3,802 years of data across 184 active U.S. ski areas for which I could find at least one year of attendance).We do know this: Taos doesn't want to return to the world of 300,000-plus skier visits. Somewhere between 250,000 and 275,000 is the “right number for the experience we want Taos to have,” Kelly tells us on the pod. Meaning: fewer skiers spread via a modern lift network is a better business than 364,000 skiers funneling onto double chairs. This flips the busiest-equals-best narrative that made skier-visit counts a 20th-century bragging point. I've heard the same logic articulated by the leaders of Killington, Waterville Valley, and other ski areas that have created a better business even with fewer skiers on their mountains. Jackson Hole, too, halted its relentless upward surge – that 2020-21 dip was deliberate, as the mountain exited Ikon Base and implemented a reservation system.This approach makes sense to me. With U.S. skier visits surging (until this year) and an Ikon or Epic pass in every pocket, no one wants to brag about being busy anymore. Space is the new volume. Social media can still transform one bad liftline into an eternal meme, but at least most skiers on the ground will have a better day most of the time than they probably would have 30 years ago.What doesn't make sense to me is why, in a less-is-more era, ski area operators have suddenly decided that skier visits should be guarded like Fort Knox. If fewer skiers is a good thing and a stated goal, why hide the numbers? The resorts ought to just say “Hey we've deliberately reduced our annual skier count from 300,000 to 250,000 [or whatever] to create a better mountain for you.” Instead, this secrecy around volume just looks cagey - if national skier visit numbers are up, then why should skiers just believe ski areas when they say “trust us, it's better now,” and offer no data to support it? Perception is reality, and today's skiing zeitgeist, as channeled by social media, tells us that American skiers perceive busier mountains today than they did a decade ago.But I'm getting off track. Since Louis Bacon bought Taos in 2013, he's funded an almost-complete renovation of what had become America's most decrepit destination ski resort. I don't think any mountain operating on U.S. Forest Service lands has more completely remade itself in the past decade (rapidly changing Big Sky, Deer Valley, and Powder Mountain operate on private property). Glimmering new but reset to 1970s volume, Taos is beautifully positioned to tap a skiing public that's burned-out on Colorado and Utah crowds but accustomed to modern lifts and snowmaking.What we talked aboutTaos as a family ski mountain; last winter's Chair 7 upgrade and custom terminals; owner Louis Bacon's mission to “improve everything without changing a thing”; why Taos changed from Skytrac to parent company Leitner-Poma for its newer lifts; Taos' great base-area reorganization; the story behind the Free Tacos run; a green run from the top of every lift other than the fierce Kachina triple; Taos' massive evolution since 2015; whether the mountain is committed to long-term independence; the founding Blake family's legacy and presence at Taos today; executing rapid development on Forest Service land; [VIDEO BONUS: Cat photobombing]; running Taos with the context of having worked at also-independent Telluride; becoming a skier growing up in Nashville, Tennessee; Telluride's evolution from semi-affordable to gigantic housing puzzle; employee housing at Taos; the logic behind the proposed base-to-base gondola and navigating local opposition; thoughts on the evolution of lifts 2 and 8; preserving parts of the hike-to ski experience; Taos' evolution after the Kachina Peak lift; lift 7A; the Minnesotas glades from the masterplan; avalanche mitigation; old-school boot-packing; parking lot evolutions; an ideal annual skier visit number and why that number is below historic highs; and getting to Taos.What I got wrong* When we discuss the wood-paneled terminals on Taos' new Lift 7, I ask if they're thematically related to the “wood RFID gates.” This is a reference to an earlier conversation that I cut, about Taos finally installing RFID for the 2025-26 ski season (the gates carry a wood theme). * I said that the trees skier's left of the Pioneer chair were not a named run, but they in fact are, and “Free Tacos” has a pretty awesome story behind it.* I accidentally asked Kelly to, “lay out the housing landscape for Telluride” but meant to say “Taos.” I didn't catch this in real time, but Kelly – who spent several years at Telluride before moving to Taos in 2015 – caught it and course-corrected.Questions I wished I'd askedTaos' 2010 USFS masterplan proposed a 7,045-foot-long, 2,363-vertical-foot detach quad that would have run parallel to Lift 1 to the top of Lift 2:We did, however, discuss the proposed 545-vertical-foot, 991-foot-long Ridge Lift off of Lift 8, and why Taos nixed that machine from its latest MDP:Why you should (or shouldn't) ski TaosTaos, like Jackson Hole or Snowbird or Palisades Tahoe, has a toughguy reputation. The place ripples with hike-to chutes and glades. To calm visitors shocked by the vertical bump run rocketing skyward beneath Chair 1, Taos to erected this base-area sign decades ago:The sign refers to the infamous Al's Run, which typically ripples with moguls, but was closed on my last visit, in March 2025 (Lift 1 was open):Taos certainly has plenty of nasty. The terrain ripping off the Kachina Peak triple is among the steepest inbounds terrain I'm aware of in America. But what shocked me about the place was how approachable it was for my then-8-year-old son, a solid but very intermediate skier. Every chair other than Kachina offers a top-to-bottom green – and some mostly mellow blues – making Taos one of the better family mountains in America.A lot of the solid-black terrain sits above the lifts, and requires a short, easy hike. If you've ever humped up Catherine's at Alta or Spanky's Ladder on Blackcomb, the ascent off of Lift 2 over to Highline Ridge or West Basin Ridge isn't much longer, and it flattens out considerably after the short incline. Unlike East Wall at A-Basin or Highlands Bowl at Aspen Highlands, this is hike-up terrain that's approachable for people who (like me), live at sea level and only like going up the mountain on machines. The runs are steep, and solo missions are discouraged, but the easy-in and proximity to lifts means a strong skier could reasonably expect to tuck a half-dozen hike-up laps into an afternoon. Here I am huffing and puffing right off Chair 2:Dang those trees are steep even right off the jump. Crunch crunch crunch:Go up a bit higher, and things get Lord of The Rings pretty fast:Taos' only real buyer-beware statistic is its insane base elevation of 9,350 feet, which makes everything, especially sleep, a bit more challenging. That altitude is actually a bit lower than the bases at Copper (9,712) or Breck (9,600). I start to have trouble functioning around 8,000 feet, which is the Vail (8,120), Snowmass (8,110), Snowbird (7,760), and Mammoth (7,953) range. So maybe see how you do at one of those burners before leveling up above 9,000 feet. Or at least arrive knowing that Taos will try punching you in the face. Hydrate and lay off the beer bongs for a day or two. You'll be fine.Podcast NotesOn Stadeli liftsWe've got 16 of these guys left across 10 U.S. ski areas, including Lift 7A at Taos:On the character of old chairliftsI wrote last year that U.S. ski lifts' overall design aesthetic has deteriorated with the decline in number of manufacturers and a tacit emphasis on technology over beauty.And I love old Riblets and Halls and Yans, but sentimentalism that locks skiing in a time capsule ultimately stalls long-term growth and invites disaster-by-disintegration. Rather than fight to live in a museum, I've adopted a quest mentality to ride as many of these dinosaurs as I can before they go extinct:On Taos' base-area fliparoundOn Taos' current masterplanHere's the conceptual overview of Taos' 2021 U.S. Forest Service master development plan:The major unrealized part of this is the base-to-base gondola - here's the most recent plan for that lift:On “class A avalanche mountains” with more than 200 slidepathsKelly mentioned that Taos' more than 200 slidepaths earn it the designation of a Class A avalanche mountain. I of course went looking for a list of U.S. ski areas so classified, and of course did not find one. In a rare exercise in self-restraint, however, I also did not create one. A quick Google search suggests that that such a list would include Alta, Kirkwood, and Stevens Pass alongside Taos. I would also assume that Alpine Meadows, Palisades, Mammoth, Snowbird, Big Sky, Silverton, and Crested Butte are among the most avy prone. That is not a complete list or an attempt at one so please don't write that I “forgot about” some particularly avalanche-prone mountain that I'm not trying very hard to remember.On The Storm's first Taos podcastThe Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

In this chilling extended episode of the 222 Paranormal Podcast, Joe and Jennifer take you far beyond the surface of the jungle and into the unknown layers of sky, land, and water where unexplained phenomena continue to defy logic. Part 2, "What Lives Beneath the Congo River," dives into the darkest and most unsettling aspect of this region—the water itself. The Congo River is not just one of the longest rivers in the world, but also one of the deepest, with vast underwater trenches, powerful unseen currents, and entire sections that remain largely unmapped. It is here that some of the strangest reports originate. Witnesses from local communities, explorers, and travelers have described glowing objects entering and exiting the river without disturbing the surface. These lights, often silent and controlled, suggest something far beyond natural explanation. Some accounts describe the water itself reacting—glowing, vibrating, or shifting—as if something is moving beneath it. But the mystery goes deeper. This episode explores terrifying stories of boats found abandoned with no signs of struggle, as well as encounters where individuals witnessed massive shapes moving below the surface. Through immersive storytelling, including cinematic jungle and river encounters, a haunting "found audio" reconstruction, and a disturbing follow-up account of a man who may have been psychologically changed after an encounter, this episode places you directly inside the experience. Joe and Jennifer also examine indigenous perspectives, where the land and river are not seen as separate elements, but as part of a living system. In these traditions, the Congo Basin is alive—breathing, aware, and connected. Some believe that the low hum reported during sightings is not mechanical or environmental, but the sound of the land itself. Could these lights, creatures, and encounters all be connected? Are they evidence of extraterrestrial activity, unknown natural phenomena, or something far older—something that exists within the environment itself? As the episode unfolds, the lines between UFO sightings, cryptid encounters, and spiritual beliefs begin to blur, leading to a chilling possibility: what if this isn't a series of isolated events, but a single presence moving between sky, forest, and water? If you're fascinated by UFOs, unexplained disappearances, deep jungle mysteries, and real-world paranormal encounters, this episode will take you into one of the last true unknowns on Earth—where what you can't see… may be the most dangerous part.

(Exodus 30:17-21) The brazen laver, the brass washbasin placed between the altar and the Holy Place, points directly to Jesus and the ongoing work of sanctification. Though our salvation is finished and received once at the cross, sanctification is a continual process that requires confession, self-examination, and reliance on Christ's cleansing power.

As rivers in the west fill with spring runoff, we begin a series of episodes with various river hydrologists from four River Forecast Centers across the country. In this episode, we talk with the Northwest River Forecast Center in Oregon to learn about this past winter's precipitation and what flows will emerge this spring and summer. This episode is focused on the Columbia River Basin. Our guest is Amy Burke, a river hydrologist from the NWRFC. She explains the impacts of the Atmospheric Rivers and the March heat dome. Following this episode will be companion episodes for many of the river basins popular with river runners.   GUESTS Amy Burke Northwest River Forecast Cente River Forecast Centers NOAA National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration NWS National Weather Service   SPONSORSNRS NRS PFD for Whale Foundation Whale Foundation   PREVIOUS EPISODES ON RIVER FLOW FORECAST2024 Snowpack & River Flow - Apple Podcasts 2024 Snowpack & River Flow - Spotify 2023 Western Snowpack & River Flow -  Apple Podcasts 2023 Western Snowpack & River Flow - SpotifyAtmospheric Rivers 101 - Apple Podcasts Atmospheric Rivers 101 - Spotify THE RIVER RADIUSWebsiteRunoff signup (episode newsletter)InstagramFacebookApple PodcastSpotifyLink Tree

Soil loss and erosion can occur by rainfall or wind. Kim Melton, the soil health coordinator for the Red River Basin Commission, emphasizes that soil loss by wind erosion is farmers' and soil conservationists' number one resource concern because crop fields are so flat throughout the region.The movement of soil off cropland and the landscape by wind or rain means critical nutrients and soil organic matter are also being lost. Building up, maintaining, and keeping soil organic matter (SOM) in the soil through cover crops and crop rotations is particularly important for preventing erosion and retaining moisture. One percent of SOM equates to about an additional 14 days of moisture for crops.Farmers want soil to be a sponge. Similarly, farmers keep the soil covered and armored to prevent "snirt" (that is, snow plus dirt) from sullying road banks and rural views during the winter months. To learn more about Kim's work and the Red River Basin Commission, please visit https://www.redriverbasincommission.org/.

Up a dark mountain road at dusk, there is snow covering the evergreens. Headlights cut through the fog on the long and lonely road. Then... you see it: a cattle guard rattling under your tires. Drivers ahead of you suddenly fling open their car doors – just for a second – before speeding on. They're not crazy. They're paying tribute because something lives under that grate on Bogus Basin Road. Something ancient. Something that rides with you to the ski slopes... or punishes those who refuse. Join Gary & GoldieAnn today as we travel Within the Mists of Idaho to bring you the true tale of the Bogus Basin trolls. Buckle up. And whatever you do... open the door.Facebook Fan Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/544933724571696Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/withinthemistpodcast/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@withinthemistpodcast1977 Hosted on Acast.

Rizz is officially on vacation, which means the rest of the crew is left unsupervised—and honestly, that feels like a mistake already. This daily podcast kicks off with the realization that “Dad's out of town,” and yes… the energy immediately shifts into full chaos mode.Of course, the timing couldn't be more on-brand because it's 4/20, so naturally the show leans into it with questionable enthusiasm. There's talk of THC drinks, dispensary adventures, and whether building a treehouse inside the studio is a good idea (it's not, but that won't stop them from discussing it like it is). The crew debates the ultimate 420 playlist, dives into cannabis culture, and somehow makes it educational… ish.Weekend recaps spiral quickly. Scott casually mentions holding a raccoon like it's a normal Saturday activity. Lern is out performing and then immediately switches into Coachella couch critic mode—rocking what can only be described as the “Adam Sandler festival collection.” Meanwhile, Rafe is out in Texas living his best barbecue life, spending what can only be described as “a small car payment” on brisket and sides, and somehow turning a TSA pat-down into a missed celebrity moment with Brooks & Dunn.And then… there's the flight story. Moon shares what might be the most aggressively disgusting travel experience ever, sitting next to someone whose smell forced him into full “face pressed against the airplane window” survival mode. It's vivid. It's haunting. It's everything you don't want to imagine… but absolutely will.Between Coachella livestream obsessions, music talk, ridiculous travel stories, and the general vibe of “we probably shouldn't be left alone,” this daily podcast delivers exactly what you'd expect from a Riz-less show: zero structure, maximum entertainment, and just enough questionable decision-making to keep things interesting.Riz may be gone… but the chaos?
