I'm looking for tent for camping. Where can I get a good tent. And thrift shop you know or any new tent .

Anyone here who has done their BMC/AMC and is looking to begin their climbing journey? I was thinking of climbing Mt. Friendship Peak in this year climbing window, between May to September. Want to do it light and quick, self-supported without any trekking company, with rented gear. This is what my rought estimated timeline looks like:

*Arrival in Manali*

Day 1 - Arrival in Manali

Day 2 - Manali to Dhundhi, Dhundhi to Summit Camp

A. Drive from Manali to Dhundhi - 40 minutes

B. Trek from Dhundhi to Summit Camp - 13 KMs, (9350 ft - 15700 ft)

Day 3 - Summit Camp to Summit Attempt and back to Manali via Dhundhi -

A. Summit Attempt and trek back to Dhundhi - 27 KMs, (15700 ft - 17348 ft - 9350 ft)

B. Dhundhi to Manali Drive - 40 minutes

Day 4 - Departure from Manali

People willing to join are most welcome. We can brainstorm a plan together. If there are any experienced climbers here who think that more acclimatization is required, kindly DM. Any advice would be appreciated.
