Last fall I noticed that my website was getting a lot more visitors than normal. The vast majority of those were from Asia. A quick web search showed that lots of small sites like mine were experiencing the same phenomena. Late in the fall I got a mention in National Geographic and those visits skyrocketed. Interesting but not really of much value to me since they resulted in no inquiries or reservations, which is the actual point of my site.
As I am working back through 20 years of blog posts; I stumble on some that are well worth repeating. This one of those that even after 15 years is still a fact.
When I am guiding a party I prefer to keep some distance from anyone else. Not that I am anti-social rather I feel that my clients deserve to experience the outdoors as personally as I can arrange it. If we are sharing a body of water, which is occasionally the case, I am inclined to keep distance from another boat or party.
It appears that everyone up and down the east coast had quite a snowstorm yesterday. Here we had a lot of wind, cold and some snow. The wind was the big feature for sure and I am thinking that we met the definition of a blizzard. The bulk of the storm went out to sea far enough to our south so that we skipped most of the snow.
