I'll be hiking the Pfiffner Traverse in a week with a few friends. We're all strong hikers and each have a couple of high routes under our belts, so the only real liability is conditions. I've never hiked in the Rockies before – does anyone have any tips with respect to dealing with monsoon thunderstorms? How has the bug pressure been lately, given the high snowpack?

From the article:
The petition to the right-wing court comes as the economic orthodoxy on rent control is shifting, with decades of empirical data showing that limiting rent increases does not get in the way of new construction, as economists long argued.
That's such a nonsensical statement to make about a state the size of California. Just the 3 main coastal cities have vastly different climates, and that's not even getting into the highly varied ecosystems found inland. Are you thinking specifically about the weather in the LA area?
The text of the statute refers to someone who is "an unlawful user of or addicted to a controlled substance," so alcohol wouldn't count. You're asked on the form to attest that you are not either a current user or addict, so I don't think past use applies either. You just can't both own a gun and do illegal drugs simultaneously, which I guess they think they can prove Hunter did. It's one of those stupid laws that can be enacted selectively to add charges and put people in prison for longer.
