Healy Pass Trail Banff National Park, AB
A wonderful hike that spends half of it’s time rising among expansive meadows, seasonally filled with glacier lilies. It begins at the Sunshine village ski resort and maintains a steady uphill throughout the majority of the hike, increasing as you reach the pass. Access to multiple different trails along route.
Looking back into the meadow from near the top of Healy Pass. Glacier lilies dot the lamdscape while The Monarch (right) and the various mountains nearby Mt Jimmie Simpson hang on to the last of their snow.
A thin snowpatch remains at the top of Healy pass as you look towards the Monarch with an unnamed seasonal pond in the bowl below.
Looking back from the top of Healy Pass towards Mt Jimmy Simpson. Various small ponds may be seen in the valley with the trees below. Smoke from the east made it a little hazy.

Unlocking the Legacy of the Honda Acty Across Four Generations
For more than four decades, the Honda Acty was a quiet workhorse in Japan’s landscape — effortlessly maneuvering through rice fields, mountain roads, and crowded city alleys. Compact, capable, and cleverly engineered, the Acty became a symbol of efficiency in motion.
In this post, we unlock the legacy of the Honda Acty, exploring all four generations of this iconic kei truck and the lasting impact it left on both Japanese industry and global car culture.
🔑 What Made the Acty Special?
The Acty was Honda’s answer to Japan’s unique kei vehicle regulations — strict rules on size, weight, and engine displacement meant for creating ultra-compact, fuel-efficient vehicles. But the Acty stood out not just because it followed the rules — it maximized them.
“Acty” = Activity — Named to reflect its purpose: getting work done.
Designed for urban agility, rural reliability, and mechanical simplicity.
Used by everyone from delivery drivers to farmers, firefighters to outdoor enthusiasts.
🚙 1st Generation (1977–1988): Simple, Strong, and Surprisingly Capable
Engine: 545cc EH SOHC 2-cylinder
Layout: Mid-engine, rear-wheel drive
Top Traits: Lightweight, easy to repair, great visibility
The original Acty focused purely on function. Its mid-engine setup offered a balanced load and excellent maneuverability — ideal for narrow streets and tight job sites. No luxury here — just a steel cabin, flat bed, and bulletproof simplicity.
Legacy Highlight:
The 1st-gen Acty cemented Honda’s place in the kei truck market and earned a reputation for reliability that persists to this day.
🛞 2nd Generation (1988–1999): Power and Possibility
Engine: 547cc → upgraded to 656cc E07A
New Features:
4WD availability
5-speed manual and 3-speed auto options
Special Editions: Attack, Crawler, Street
This generation expanded the Acty’s reach. Now available in 4WD, with improved torque and gearing, the Acty could climb hills, navigate snow, and even hit trails. The “Attack” version became a favorite among off-roaders thanks to its low-range gearbox.
Legacy Highlight:
The 2nd-gen Acty is still sought after in the import market for its blend of old-school simplicity and real-world utility.
🛡️ 3rd Generation (1999–2009): Smart Utility Meets Safety
Engine: 656cc E07Z (fuel-injected)
Features:
Airbags, ABS, and optional power steering
More refined suspension
Better cabin ergonomics
As kei regulations tightened, the 3rd-gen Acty adapted. It retained its work-ready bones but added enough comfort for daily drivers and delivery crews. It struck a perfect balance: just modern enough to be convenient, still simple enough to be reliable.
Legacy Highlight:
It made the Acty more accessible to a wider range of users, from tradespeople to kei van enthusiasts.
🚦 4th Generation (2009–2021): The Final Evolution
Engine: 656cc E07Z (~44 hp)
Chassis Codes: HA8 (2WD) / HA9 (4WD)
Upgrades:
Dual airbags
Compact 1.9-meter wheelbase
2018 “Spirit Colour Style” tribute to the Honda T360
Honda’s last Acty generation focused on refinement. It was quieter, safer, and easier to drive — but still very much a kei truck. It wasn’t flashy. It didn’t need to be. It just worked, until the very end.
Legacy Highlight:
The 4th-gen Acty bowed out gracefully, leaving behind a 44-year legacy as one of Japan’s greatest micro-utility vehicles.
🌍 Global Impact: Why the Acty Still Matters
Imported worldwide for off-road use, farm work, or JDM collecting
Customizable: Lift kits, camper builds, street mods
Affordable and efficient, with parts support still strong for most generations
A cult icon in the kei car and microtruck communities
Even after production ended in 2021, the Honda Acty continues to thrive — thanks to its durable design, timeless form, and the global love for practical vehicles that refuse to quit.
🏁 Final Thoughts: A Kei-Sized Legend
Unlocking the legacy of the Honda Acty isn’t just about engines or model years — it’s about how a tiny truck became a giant in everyday usefulness. Across its four generations, the Acty evolved with the times, but never lost sight of what mattered: doing more with less.
Whether you’re restoring a vintage 1st-gen, off-roading in a 2nd-gen “Attack,” or commuting in a clean 4th-gen van, you’re part of a legacy built on reliability, adaptability, and good old-fashioned Honda engineering.

Iran hit five “Israeli” military bases during 12-day war, new satellite data reveals
New radar data indicates that Iranian missiles directly struck at least five "Israeli" military bases during the recent 12-day conflict, according to an analysis shared by US academics at Oregon State University with The Telegraph.
The strikes, which "Israeli" authorities have not publicly disclosed due to strict military censorship laws, reportedly involved six Iranian missiles hitting previously unreported sites across northern, central, and southern "Israel."
These targets included a major air base, an intelligence gathering center, and a logistics base.
Analysis from The Telegraph suggests that while most Iranian missiles were intercepted, the proportion breaking through "Israeli" air defenses steadily rose to about 16 percent by day seven of the conflict.

My first time capturing fireworks. I made some mistakes, and I think the biggest mistake I made was being married to 100 ISO, and bringing a tripod. Fortunately for me, I was sitting right at the position directly in front of the barge, so I was able to get good shots of lovely centered fireworks. In order to get my ideas right, I shot a bit underexposed, about -1.5EV, but I think it worked out, made it harder to edit though.
My opinions and beliefs about the state of the country and my status with in it as a minority aside, I saw an opportunity for photography practice, and growth in the field, and I took it.
Thank you for seeing my work!

US man arrested while filming Home Depot ICE raid sues government for $1m
Photographer Job Garcia, a US citizen, seeks recompense after reportedly being tackled and thrown to the ground
A US citizen is seeking $1m in recompense from Department of Homeland Security (DHS) agencies after being arrested by officials last month when filming an immigration raid at a Home Depot store.
Job Garcia, a 37-year-old a photographer and PhD student at Claremont Graduate University, was tackled, thrown to the ground, arrested and detained for over 24 hours, the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (Maldef) said. The advocacy group is representing Garcia.
The arrest of immigrants has escalated nationwide, notably at Home Depot sites, where undocumented laborers in particular gather in parking lots outside branches of the store chain, waiting to be picked up for casual work.

Questions about tags
- Can a mod add tags to someone else's post?
- How many tags are possible and will be shown?
I just started a movie community, with tags for actors etc already at ~30. Potentially that could increase to... hundreds? More?
How many will display? Will it always display all of them or can it be hidden /drop down, like spoiler text? Perhaps partially, e.g. the top tags are shown by default but you have to click "Expand" to see the rest. - What about tags in places other than the Piefed tags entry field? E.g. in post body, comments etc. Are they... "recognized" / "effective"?
- Dammit, I had one more, can't remember it now.
Re: 3. No. For sending, they need to be in that tags form field, and for receiving, they need to have been in the ActivityPub "tags": {"type": "hashtag"} section for a post. For both directions, PieFed isn't regexing any text anywhere to look for something that might be a tag.

The 35-page undated document details protocols to "separate minors from unrelated adults" and to provide "snacks and water" to minors, pregnant women and detainees with medical conditions during transport.
"The State of Florida is planning to send pregnant women and children to the 'Alligator Alcatraz' detention camp," wrote State Senator Carlos Guillermo Smith on social media. "This is totally un-American. We cannot be silent."
