ff into the wilds earth week got me thinking, it's completely possible to live without all this computer bull poo poo. i've heard the internet makes you stupid. I used to be really into hiking and camping but since becoming an adult I've slipped into some destructive patterns and forgotten my roots. I want to start making trips into the wilderness and really getting away from it all all of it

i did trail work in yosemite for those curious. it's a really awesome gig. you set up a camp in a backcountry location and live there for the summer. food / mail gets packed in on mules. the work is extremely physically demanding but generally very rewarding. and living with a small crew of 16 people is a pretty cool experience. additionally i was working with a program that took 18-25 year olds and put them on a trail crew for the summer. so you get a bunch of inner city kids + some college kids and they live together in the woods for 6 months and you teach them how to do trail work and how to get along. best thing i've ever done. way better than this stupid computer crap. but i wanted to be intellectually stimulated ![]() DONT THREAD ON ME fucked around with this message at 19:51 on Apr 29, 2018 |

i really cannot understate how much happier i was living outside, doing manual labor, and working closely with a small community of people (good and bad). it felt like i was inhabiting a different brain. part of it was probably the constant exercise and relatively healthy diet. but i think a lot also had to do with the simplicity of that lifestyle: my entire life revolved around work and the people on my crew. it was very much a living in the moment thing. here's a video from one of my crews (i'm the guy from my av): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Z4AoB6VHm0

Very cool i'm fascinated
