is the hiking to mountaineering pipeline or the climbing to mountaineering pipeline more common?

I just want peace and quiet at home. What if we decided on one town and everyone who wanted quiet moved there. Local ordinances would ban amplified music outdoors, loud diesal engines and so on. Surely this has been attempted before or something approximates this without having the leave the economy and live on an acreage, the desert ot always be /out/?

Some examples of living The Barefoot Life:
-Practicing movement in bare feet (walking, running, crawling, climbing, kicking, lifting, carrying etc.) in a variety of environments
-Wearing shoes/orthotics as much as needed to manage load while gradually transitioning to more minimalist footwear and barefoot activities
-Growing your own food - either at home or in a community setting
-Prioritising recovery and sleep after lots of movement and skill learning
-Spending time experiencing and appreciating nature
-Active meditation through mindful movement or breath work e.g. beam challenges, box breathing
-Walking to a farmers market to connect with the people who grow your food
-Creating and using designated movement spaces at home/work/school
-Deliberate exposure to discomfort e.g. hot/cold, fasting, ground sitting/sleeping/movement, learning new skills etc.
-Spending quality in-person time connecting with friends/family and your broader community

>My parents are pretty lenient with me when it comes to chores.
>Wash my own dishes, put my cloths in the washing machine and that’s about it.
>They even fold them for me.
>An apology for being too rough with me as a kid I think.
>But there is still one chore I do anally, and even if they offered too do it for me I’d still do it myself.
>Every year on the first snowfall my trampoline must be taken down. The constant weight of the snow will cause it to stretch and warp otherwise.
>If I don’t the cloth will stretch causing it to loose tension and you’ll have to work harder to jump and it won’t be nearly as satisfying to use. A while of that and you need to buy a new net and springs, years of neglect the frame will buckle and you just have to get a whole new trampoline at that point.
>When I was a kid my trampoline was my safe space, if my parents were being hard on me or school was stressing me out I’d just climb on in and get lost in my imagination. The weight on my shoulders disappearing in the momentary weightlessness of zero g.
>I’d imagine fantasy worlds with wacky characters and if I was angry I’d imagine those characters tearing people apart until the anger brought me to tears or mental exhaustion.
>My therapists at the time told my parents that they shouldn’t bother me or attempt to “correct my behavior” while I use it and that its healthy for kids to have a private safe space. To their credit they didn’t.
> I’m in my early 20’s now and I’ve never grown out of the thing, it is still my safe space, a place for me to unwind, and now that I think about it my sole source of exercise.
>Today is the first snow of winter.

What animal makes a very loud scraping sound?
I like to hike in the woods at night and I don't follow a trail and I have never seen another person before so I think it was an animal
Chatgpt says it could have been a deer scratching it's antlers but watching a video it doesn't sound like what I heard at all, it sounded more like metal being dragged across concrete
It was loud AF and repeat a few times before it stopped too
I didn't see anything because i keep my phone in my pocket in case I get hurt and just use my night vision to get around but that only lets me see so far
I've been doing this for over a year but I've never heard anything like that before
I'm in Europe BTW

Religious Utah MORMON father charged with TORTURE and child abuse for taking his little kids on a way-too-hard hike:
https://archive.is/lPaqu
the trail in question where he was found with his 8 year old daughter, and 2 and 4 year old son:
https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/utah/broads-fork-trail
It's 2000 ft of elevation gain over 2.2~ mi each way so pretty steep.
Initially, some news reports hailed the rescue and the father’s efforts to keep the children alive in unforgiving conditions. There was even a GoFundMe fund-raiser, where Mr. Smith was said to have suffered frostbite in trying to keep the children safe, The Salt Lake Tribune reported.
Two of the children were in critical condition after they were found, the sheriff’s office said after the rescue, and one was in stable condition. Mr. Smith was in fair condition, the statement said.
District Attorney Sim Gill of Salt Lake City said during a news conference that the children were told to “march on” despite being afraid and that the path Mr. Smith took, known as the Broad Fork Trail, was “not an easy hike that you would take a child upon.”
Mr. Gill also said that the children discussed climbing over “rocks that were slipping” and having to hold onto vegetation as they were trying to hike.
The 8-year-old girl was found “alongside a boulder with ‘a few sticks stacked against it,’” and the 2-year-old boy was under his 4-year-old brother, who was exposed and unconscious, according to the news report.
The news station also reported that Mr. Smith’s daughter can be heard in a video that was found on his phone asking, “Are we going to freeze to death, daddy?”
