Sunglasses when hiking in the snow?

Has anyone bought a prescription pair of sunglasses for hiking in the snow? Wondering where to get them from and what to look for.

I wear lenses too but they’re no use in cold and windy conditions, eyes dry out easily.

Anyone ever camped at Loch Enoch in Galloway Forest? How’s the hike to the loch? And how’s the pitch areas? I’ve seen a few videos of pitches on the sandy bays that I want to try out

Bought a copy of Richmond Lattimores translation of The Odyssey.

Should I read the Illiad first and should I just get Lattimores translation for that as well. From searching, seems like I’d prefer his style.

What size rucksack should I get? Mostly 1-2 night camping just now

I’ve got an Osprey talon 33 but the tent I’ve chosen isn’t a typical lightweight solo tent, it’s a 3 man MSR Tindheim tent that’s quite bulky and 3.7Kg so it’d need to be strapped to the outside of my current bag

Safe sleeping with toddler?

Buying camping gear and not sure on what the safest option is for a 3 year old, should I just get a basic foam mat or an inflatable sleeping pad like the vango trek 3?

Also, kids sleeping bag or something like the picture?

Tent suggestions?

Looking at a 3 man tent. Something with a large enough porch my Labrador will fit in, if she’s too hot inside the tent. It’ll be used for a mix of taking my dog and toddler camping and for just myself and dog wild camping. So it’ll need to be light enough so I can take it on reasonable length hikes.

I’ve been recommended the OEX Jackal 3 or the MSR Tindheim 3 if I was to spend more.

Is there any better option? Budget probably up to £350

Tent recommendations for 1 adult, toddler and dog?

Something for camping sites to begin with then onto more remote, something I can carry for an hour or two no bother. Been looking at the Berghaus Grampian 3. Just nothing too high end £££ for first tent but better than a homebargains special
