Yes, but in my experience, these methods don’t work well.   

In a forum, you have to dig through a bunch of pages to find the latest information.  Forums are great for having multi-person conversations and saving them for future reference, but not so great for quickly finding the latest information on a specific topic.  

Email lists can clog your inbox and make it hard to find the information you really need.  

The success of the Outdoor Reports is based on its one goal: to quickly provide you with the up-to-date conditions information you need to have a successful outing.
