New perspectives: Living on the Wildfire EdgeThis SAR image of Ketchum & Sun Valley, Idaho, showcases a beautiful mountain town nestled amidst a tinderbox of dry forests. It's a postcard perfect setting, but it also highlights a growing challenge: Wildland Urban Interfaces (WUIs) where homes and nature collide.As climate change intensifies, wildfires are becoming more frequent and devastating. WUIs like Ketchum face heightened risks, and relying solely on traditional firefighting methods may not be enough.That's where Short Aperture Radar (SAR) comes in. This powerful technology, unaffected by smoke or darkness, can: - Track fire progressionin real-time, guiding firefighting efforts. - Map fuel loadsand identify high-risk areas, informing preventive measures. - Monitor post-fire recovery, aiding in rebuilding and future planning.By leveraging SAR alongside other data sources, we can gain a deeper understanding of wildfire risks and develop smarter strategies for WUI communities like Ketchum. This includes:- Fuel reduction programsto create firebreaks and lessen the intensity of wildfires.- Fire-resistant building codesto mitigate damage and protect homes.- Community educationto raise awareness and empower residents to take action.Living in a WUI requires vigilance and preparedness. By embracing innovative technology companies like Umbra, we can ensure that picturesque communities like Ketchum can thrive alongside the natural beauty that surrounds them. ️A big shout out to the folks at Umbra for providing this amazing image.#WildfirePreparedness #WUI #SAR #KetchumID #SunValleyID

Ready for 2024, the year for coolcationing and shoulder season travel 🗺 Travelers are craving sustainability and authenticity more than ever, which is giving us the opportunity to introduce travelers to our authentic culture and lifestyle. As locals in Ålesund and Sunnmøre, what are the hidden gems we can share with small groups of travelers? 😍 Multiple suggestions are more than welcome 🙌 My first suggestions:- Buying fresh seafood directly from the boats in Ålesund city center - Discovering the underwater village in Lygnstøylvatnet - Slow down and go fishing for hours. Afterwards, learn how to gut and cook the fish you caught. - Having a crab feast in a local boathouse, and learn how to break the crab claws yourself. BTW, the crab guts are the best part of the crab, in my opinion. What can you add to the list❔ ÅLESUND SENTRUMSFORENING#ålesund #sunnmøre #norway #coolcationing #shoulderseasontravel #localfood
