#30DayMapChallenge Day 5: Journey 🗺️ I highlighted the most popular routes - 3D helps find the best tour options considering visibility, distances and difficulty. Hiking > Skiing on Jade Dragon Snow Mountain! 3D clearly demonstrates why skiing is not recommended on Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. The outlined routes showcase the most popular paths (Blue Moon Valley <=> Spruce Meadow / Yak Meadow => Glacier Park), each offering unique experiences due to varying visibility, walking distances, and difficulty levels.

The discussion around hospitality season extension is in full swing. While I highly respect the excellent work of Heinz Hunkeler and his Kulm Hotel St. Moritz team, it is very interesting that Forbes Forbes Travel Guide features this iconic grand hotel as a late summer destination that already closes its summer season doors on 8 September. Can this be real? 💡If you are interested in learning how to make the most out the off-season business and want to learn how to extend seasons, have a look at my recent publication that you find under comments. #hospitality #luxury #innovation #futurereadiness #viabledesign

Today we have another special word for you 👀 And that is “Friluftsliv”, which means enjoying time #outdoors no matter what the weather is like. This concept is as much a part of Norway as cross-country skiing. It is part of Norwegian #culture and it is also a #lifestyle, as well as an outdoor activity (for example hiking), mostly in the wilderness ⛰. #Explika #uniqueword #translation

Today marked my first day skiing this season—a surprisingly deep, powder-filled start. 👏🏼 It feels like a gift, a reminder that nature’s rhythm doesn’t follow our plans —— but offers what we need when we least expect it (I really needed this day). My goal this winter? To ski weekly (maybe twice 😜) and get lost in the place that feels most like home— the mountains. Skiing is my freedom, my grounding, and my way of connecting to something bigger than myself. It’s a space where joy, challenge, and awe collide—a dance between surrender and intention. There’s a reason we outgrow the shallow end, where everything is safe and seen. We crave depth—where the wild things are. The depths of the forest, the storm-buried slopes, and untracked lines pull us forward. These spaces challenge, unravel, and reveal us. Depth doesn’t just live in the snow. It’s in the connections we make—with the land, ourselves, and those who venture beside us. It’s in lessons learned when the line we planned vanishes and we find another way down. So here’s to depth. 🥂 To deep dives into ourselves and the wild. To challenges, discoveries, and stories in every turn. Happy opening day 🥂 ❤️👏🏼 what depths are calling you my friend? #deep #skiing #outside #feedom

May, here in the mountains, is "mud season" - it's when the snow is melting and many of the outdoor activities we enjoy are difficult or out of service. It's somewhat of a quagmire if you want to go hiking and very slushy if you want to go skiing (assuming you can find snow). Operating in #Marketo without the proper knowledge or good setup can be a similar experience, which is why getting yourself armed with knowledge to navigate whatever digital nature throws your way is very important. To help you navigate, #MarketoChampion Office Hours is here to help. Our next session is THIS WEEK, and will help you "unmud" your instance and start to play the #MOPs game with style, even if you find yourself in a technical mud season. Your panel for this month are: Moderator: Courtny Edwards-Jones Panelists Britney Young Chris Kelley Sarah Ryan Jimmy S. Link to register in the comments.
