I KNOW IT ISN'T 78 DEGREES.

But some people think it is and state it as such - they are obviously wrong.

I am actually agreeing with you.

And don't shout - there's no need. )

No you're not agreeing with me, you're making the exact same error and I tried to make that bit in bold to drop a hint, try again. It's not 55 degrees either (as you did say), you're still not getting it.

It's fairly short tho. dont do it when sheet ice tho!!

Tony_H... you have been to MH something like 7 trillion times and not at least done the HK !! lol. Surely there wasn't an air ambulance there EVERY TIME... You have mentioned fresh snow at MH loads of times, so you should have done it by now.

Maybe this year you will pluck up th courage )

your other post mentions handling the terrain..... maye you cant!! :lol:

I am getting it, Ise, loud and particularly clear.

55 dgrees is obviously my estimate - I haven't measured it for pity's sake.

Someone has gone so far as to publish on the dedicated website that it is 78 degrees. Not even you can argue with the fact that they have done this - however way off the mark they might be.

Good grief.

Calm down!

That states 78%, however:

***edit*** The word we are looking for here is %, not degrees.

You're still not getting it, it's not 55 degrees, it really, really, really isn't. You're not even close.

Do you know what a 55 degree slope looks like? Instead of just getting wound up and replying, think about it.

For the trigonometry lesson - no charge )

states 78 degrees. You cant go telling people they are wrong, Ise, when its on the official website!!!


ah, welcome to the next contestant... try again )

anyone that says it's 78 degrees is wrong so I think I can point that out if I wish. (btw, neither of those websites make that error)
