inMy uncle told me to skip the switchbacks on the Timberline Trail
Yeah, I was all about finding the direct line too until a similar mess. Uma_martinez is totally right about why those paths are built the way they are. Now I just trust the trail.

Remember my buddy's trick with the pencil eraser?

inPSA: I lost $150 trying to find a quick answer on a random forum instead of just asking here
Feel your pain, spent $80 on a "definitive" guide to fixing my washing machine. It was just a PDF of the free manual from the manufacturer's website. The real trick was just unplugging it for five minutes.

inShowerthought: Everyone says to trust your gauges, but mine lied to me on a bridge job in Tampa.
Oh man, that's the worst. Had a pressure gauge on a rental tank stick at 1500 psi once. I was happily swimming along, thinking I had plenty of air left, when it just went from 1500 to 200 in a heartbeat. No warning, no slow drop, just a hard stick and then a panic-inducing freefall. It's why I double-check with a backup computer now, even on simple dives. You just can't trust a single point of failure.
