Archaeologists announced Cave 338 in the Pyrenees, 2,235m / 7,333ft up, as the highest-altitude prehistoric dwelling found in the region. People kept returning to it over โผ5,000 years, 5thโ1st millennium BC, with hearths, animal bones, pottery, and jewelry. It rewrites the idea that prehistoric groups only passed through high mountains.
For decades, experts thought areas above 2,000m were just travel routes. This shows planned, repeated occupation โthe mountain was not a barrier but an active place within the economic and territorial organization of prehistoric communitiesโ.

Former paratrooper Karl Bushby, 57, set off from Chile in 1998 and has reached Belgium. Under the terms of his challenge, he is unable to use transport.
He expects to reach Calais, France, in September but was told on Tuesday that his formal request to access a service tunnel had been declined, with a Eurotunnel spokesperson citing safety and operational reasons.

KEYS TO RESILIENCE- stuff I've picked up over many years isolated in remote terrain.
"You've got more in you than you think."
(Whether it's a run in the local park, or here, nearing a summit in Mongolia, your mind will tell you to stop long before your body really needs to)
An ancient oak tree that has stood in the heart of a famous forest for hundreds of years and is linked to the legend of Robin Hood has died, experts believe.
The Major Oak is estimated to have lived in Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire for up to 1,200 years, and is considered one of Britain's biggest oak trees. ๐ณ ๐น#trees
