-ACCIDENTAL POST-
i enjoy it also...
i live only a couple hours from the boundry waters (vast wilderness on the border of canada and america) and enjoy going there...nothing better then enjoying a spliff, or even better, a mushroom trip, in the wilderness...
well i dont rly hike but when ever im feelin down i like to go for walks and smoke but i a long hike like mexico to canada would be fun just be sure to bring lots of bud
i've done my share of long-distnace walking, but nothing like this. i'd totally be down to walk across the states. you got any information on this?
I'm backpacking/hiking/biking/walking all over the world. You're free to walk with me until you want to leave.

im planning on walking from minnesota to california in a few years...gunna live there for a while...
im gunna try to bring with a QP, and some mushrooms even...
see, now that sounds like fun. what part of cali.i would not recommend the southern part as it gets rough.ive traveled around and people in la are stressed out and grouchy.i think from sitting in traffic and breathing the fumes for years at a time

We took 12 days but were going at a leisurely pace, hanging out at certain lakes for a few days at a time, etc. Unbelievable scenery. I'll scan some pics and post them later this weekend.
I hope you don't mind bears. On our 12 day trip we had bears come into our camp 9 nights. Just remember to hang your food and make sure you put everything that smells, food, toothpaste, etc. along with it. The last thing you want is to wake up with some bear gnawing at your sack because you a tube of chapstick in your pocket. Keep some rocks near your tent door too. You can throw them at the bears. Seriously, I'm not kidding.
good to hear that ganj is ready.kickoff party will be in april.maybe ill blaze with you homie! and fengzi whats up man.i hear ya on the lil one thing.i dont know how um gonna be away for the hike but im gonna go.april 2007.look on internet for ADZPCTKO.bears are smart.i respect them very much and my fear of them is not bad.just when you feel them near but you cant see em.they are masters of creeping and i like that
Yeah, I know what you mean about them creeping bears. I was cooking dinner at a car campground in the Eastern Sierra once when I heard a twig snap about 2 feet away. I though it was my girlfriend coming back with some water but when I turned to look it was a big fucking bear. The bugger had just walked right up to me completely silent. My first thought was to just run away but I was hungry and didn't want to give up dinner if I didn't have to. I grapped some pans and jumped up banging them together and screaming as loud as I could. The bear took off running, although directly at my girlfriend who was now coming back with the water. He turned when he noticed her but not before scaring the piss out of her. Literally :p
