Where to buy second hand glacier glasses? Is eBay the only decent option? Found These on facebook market place, Vintage but cheap, worth buying?

How do I convince my friend he's going to die and this a beyond a pants on head retarded idea. How the fuck do these outfitters not vet people on something like this? He's on a high because he divorced his psycho whore of a wife that put his dog down to spite him and he's made just over a million dollars working in the defense industry and shrewd investment with me.

There has to be other easier mountains in Nepal that aren't as expensive or dangerous.

Is there anything I should know to deal with winter conditions hiking? I've never been hiking with a significant amount of snow or ice, but am planning to do some in January in the Appalachians around VA, WV, MD, and/or PA.

Why is half an acre the absolute minimum land area needed to be self sufficient?

Weather is starting to get cold and I wanted to get you guys opinion so I figured I'd get the wool general going
What's an acceptable blend in your guys experience for /out/ings? I'm looking at getting one of those L.L. Bean birdseye sweaters and it's 80 wool 20 Rayon. Will the rayon be detrimental at all? Anyone have experience?

I want to have camping adventures like Rin chan, traveling with a tent and staying in camping places around southern germany and central europe as a whole, but I need to make a choice

Either I go the Rin route and buy a scooterlike motorbike or I buy an e-bike

On one hand with the motorbike I get to go farther away and faster and have more carrying capacity, but with the e-bike I have full access to europe's large bike trail network and can travel by train with it when necessary. Also, thanks to the engine, hilly terrain isn't a problem

Help me make a choice

I think I want to sell my home and just either live in a boat or an rv and fuck around the west coast until I eventually drop dead or something

Anyone here ever actually live in an rv or a small boat full time? does one cost more than the other long terms? I suppose the boat thing sucks because no natl parks or driving around to go get supplies, but living on the water sounds kind of cozy honestly
