This hike looks wunderbar, I'll look into it. Thank you!
I have alpine hiking experience and a lot of hiking experience in general, I just don't want to be in any sort of place where I'll need to be strapped into a harness in order not to die. My friends are climbers but I am not and will never be, but I do love a good "walk-up" mountain for the views. Again, thank you for the suggestion, that whole area looks nice.


Your pictures are great and makes me wish I'd gone to that teashop when I was there :)


These look great too, but I doubt I'll ever make it to Australia. It's on the complete opposite side of the planet from me and there are so many other beautiful places in between I'd rather visit. Hopefully someone else will see these suggestions and go up one or the other when they're there :)

I want to go up Jbel Toubkal in Morrocco, I've been up Mount Kinabalu which was great, although I felt like poo poo at the top and Toubkal seems like it should be similar in difficulty. It seems like a nice walk up mountain that you can do over two days with guides and mules if you want to.

This is so perfect.

Who knows how many Everest "falls" were in fact people being blown off the mountain by their butts. We know now it killed Mallory, but how many others? The cover-up is breathtaking in scale. The whole thing stinks.

You joke, but I think it was the Everest TV show where someone said that Everest is the only place on earth where you can have diarrhea and be constipated at the same time.

High altitude makes you prone to constipation because your bowels slow down and you can get dehydrated. Combine that with an unfamiliar diet and physical exertion and you can be both constipated and have diarrhea: No poo poo for days, and then it comes out like a morse code message being sent from your butt.

If you're an experienced tramper, do Mt Taranaki in the summer. It's awesome.

Awesome. I'm keen to try Ngauruhoe in summer as and I've already filled my winter schedule with St Bathans and Ophir on the Central Otago Rail Trail. Not doing the ride, just those two towns probably.

Someone asked earlier if I had found anything good on reddit. Most of it isn't relevant to this thread, it's missing persons, serial killers, etc. But this is a really good read about whether or not Mallory and Irvine made it to the summit of Everest. It's written by someone who was on the 1999 expedition which found Mallory's body.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

Nah, tug of war is one of the few events where poor countries would have a fighting chance, because it needs only very basic training equipment. Don't take that from them by only letting rich countries compete.

It's like this, Peanut

quote:

In 2007, two 17-year-old boys participating in a tug of war game at a Colorado homecoming looped the rope around their hands and suffered amputations. “Hearing it was pretty gross,” a student at the scene later told NBC. “There was like a lot of people screaming and just all blood flying everywhere and just people running out of the room." Signs were later posted at the Christian high school that read, “Their hands are in His hands.”
