    If he’s illiterate we don’t need to call him dumb

    Also allegedly the Rockies, not all mountains… we hope

      I doubt he is being labelled “dumb” due to being illiterate.

      Doing no research prior to setting out is a great reason to call him dumb.

        Though lack of research because you can’t read is a bit of a speed bump in the whole “doing research” process

          Yes, but people 40 years ago managed. Youtube and a friend that can read. Hell asking random strangers their opinions on what the challenges of skateboarding across the country are.

            You’re not wrong!

            I will say, I learned stuff like that to be a good idea through a productive education system which also helped me learn to read
