Everything is covered in a white blanket and is so peaceful.

I used to work in a store that sold backpacking and rock climbing equipment and was able to get all kinds of perks from the equipment companies. One year this backpack company hosted a big party up on Mt. Shasta in Northern California. They wanted us to test their backpacks so they loaded us down with lots of beer and food. We hiked up to just above the treeline and set up a big camp in the snow. There was about 15 of us and I think everyone was a smoker so we must have had close to a 1/2lb of dank between us. Once the sun went down the party started and everybody got absolutely trashed. Probably the best party I ever went too.
that sounds HARDCORE man, doesnt it get really cold n stuff? i dont know about snow camping, but nice spring-time or summer-time camping is more my thing for now. hah. it must be sumthin with us 19 year olds.
