Word.Being out in the wilderness, whether in desert canyons or the high country gets me high. Alters mah state of consciousness. Not sure what it is but its pretty cool. Also, the sierra nevada is pretty cool cause you can walk like 200 miles and never cross a road and its epic as ****. Like lord of the rings and shit.
I was living in Seattle once upon a time and everything that could go wrong went wrong. The idea was to take a bus to Denver to stay with friends while I sorted things through. I knew a few guys that we big into mountain climbing and wanted to do a trip to Gannett Peak and try for that summit.
I went along for a couple of nights of camping before they did their climb and ended up hiking about fifty miles south to Lander over six days. I felt like a new person after that and ever since. I am thrilled you have gotten that experience...it really did change my life.
