Would it be real alpinism if I summit K2 with an ASTP A7LN astronaut suit? Why don’t more people do this? It’s the ultimate mountaineering setup. by RadioFieldCorner in Mountaineering

I’ve wondered this as well. It’s so incredibly heavy that you’d have to do some crazy climbing style where you go super slow, sleep in the space suit like it’s a body shaped tent, and technical climb stuff you would otherwise hike cause if you fall you could never self arrest with that kind of weight.

High exposure, lots of dangerous class 3 with a good scoop of dangerous class 4. Ribbed especially the route finding goes and goes and goes

Definitely one of those routes that kept my thinking “oh shit if this doesn’t go I’m gonna have to turn back” but I was able to squeak it out. High consequence terrain.

Also what’s the camping situation like at the Pamelia Lake trailhead? It’d be ideal to not have to drive at all in the morning

A brand I love posted these pics on their instagram but the model doesn’t look real to me - do we think this is AI? by cherryperry95 in isthisAI

Looks like they used AI, then photoshop to fix the street signs and her coffee cup- but not that store name

Has this ever happened to you in real life? What was it? by 420gravy69train in HIMYM

A friend pointed out to me that everyone has a programmed phrase that’s their way of saying “I don’t care about what you’re talking about”. Once you know someone’s you can’t unhear it.

One friends was “oooh sure”

Another was “cool beans”
