The mountain deck that cooks while the air is cool

What changes through the year?

The same furniture in the same place, twelve times.

Through the year

May gives you 4 usable hours here. January gives you 0.

Same furniture, same place, different geometry. That is why a seasonal setup is an operating decision rather than restlessness.

Each month is read on the 30th, or the last day of a shorter month. Same day as the year card. Not a forecast for that date.
