An alternative in this case is carsharing or taxis. Car ownership is a big issue, for every carsharing car you can get rid of up to 10 vehicles.

Lmfao what are you talking about? There's zero chance you'll find a ride share or taxi willing to take you out on seasonal roads. And that's also ignoring the fact that a lot of these are going to be ~2hrs or more away from an actual town so it's not financially feasible either.

I'm talking about going out into actual nature. Still very far away from civilization.

  1. Carsharing is not the same thing as ride sharing. Carsharing (basically short term car rental paid by the hour/km) is an option anywhere. My girlfriend and I have used this widely in our nature adventures in Europe.

  2. I am talking about possibilities of how we could reform our system and thinking, not the real life situation. Nonetheless, a taxi (ride sharing) is still a viable option in large parts of the world and the US.

  3. Your attitude is unnecessarily hostile so I will shut this conversation down. Thank you for your time.
