Psilocybin trips and your set. Pacific Northwest and why I love it here 1

Hello, I live in Eastern Washington. I've been tripping for over 7 years now and have fried in a lot of locations.
Aside from the beauty and power of 12 foot waves ripping in the ocean in Astoria, Oregon nothing beats right here in my home state of Washington.
If I have to trip indoors I'll do it but if given the choice I'd rather hit one of the many camping spots I have around here and enjoy nature and beauty at its finest.
I really feel sorry for anyone who has to spend every trip in town or who thinks central park is getting out into nature. 4 wheeling through mud and on hunting trails up to a remote part of the woods is unbeatable. Setting up camp getting stuff ready for a fire ahead of time and unloading the cooler and pulling out some cold ones.
Then it's time to ingest an 1/8th and enjoy some of the best natural surroundings known to man.
Beatiful scenery, natural rock slides and more good company and food than I could ask for. I never want to leave the PNW not in a million years.
If you ever get the chance come enjoy what the PNW has to offer.

Haha no offense but there's a lot of mindsets like that in Washington. Zoning laws in the beautiful farm land around here have been moved from 10 acre minimum's for property down to 2 so all the Californian's can take our state over.
Not on my watch.
Best of luck getting into Oregon though bro!

Depends on where you live. In the top 3/4 of the coastal ridge of Oregon up to Seattle it gets rain all the time because of the climate and being next to the ocean is going to produce lots of rain.
Here in Eastern Washington however we just get all 4 seasons and it's quite enjoyable. Winter can suck and winter can be non existent some years. 2 years ago my parents had a fridge out behind their house that crapped out on them their snow fall after a week ended up covering the ground to the top of the fridge. This last year we had no more than 3-4 inches at any given time.
I'd rather be rained on 24/7 than live in Arizona in 90 degree weather during May.
Like I said though it really all boils down to location. Seattle has been proven to have depression problems because of rain alone. Mind of matter is my opinion on your question though.
EDIT: Almost forgot to mention that Oregon is picking spot #1 when it comes to azurescens because of its climate which are regarded as being one of the best Psilocybe mushroom there is.

Right on.
I'd love to live in the PNW.
Arizona is nice too though. In Flagstaff they still get SNOW in may. I would definitely never want to live in Phoenix though.

I've spent a lot of time in Phoenix but that's it for Arizona unfortunately. Seen lots of Nevada too but I just get sick of deserts at a certain point :P I'll need to try to go to a enjoyable place next time.

The farthest north I've been on the Pacific coast is a place called Sea Ranch. I liked it there and I bet I would enjoy going even farther up there

I LOVE the fucking PNW. I live in Gig Harbor right now. Lets plan a trip or Cyan hunt some time!
Also, it really doesnt rain that much. I think it's more a case of Washingtonions spreading outlandish rumours to keep Californians and the like out, lol.
And the rain doesnt really depress, it just makes it easier to feel that way if you're inclined to it. IT's just water falling from the sky, whats so sad?

Lived all over the US but prefer the PNW. Temperate climate, good mushrooms, ok fishing, hiking and scenic beauty up the ass... Can wear socks and sandals!
Seattle has less rain than NYC, Atlanta, etc... It's not the rain, but the gray... But the spring, summer and fall make up for it.
Hunted liberty caps, cyan, Pells... Pells are funny... Find a good place, pick pounds.... This spring, picked 15 lbs of morels, 20 lbs of oyster mushrooms, just starting on boletes...
Three national parks, thousands of acres of national forest, state forest, wilderness area... Long coast line... Good wineries, vibrant art scene, music Mecca, liberal views (in Seattle)
I agree... PNW rocks!

I tell everyone who is interested in seeing a lot in a good amount of time to just set aside 5 days or a week and drive up the coast. Get a good rental or drive your own gas mileage is the only factor. I personally love hitting up any KoA campground you come across because they are cheap have good showers and are very very clean and I've never had a complaint.
I do this trip every year on about $500. High points are primarily in Oregon. Seaside, Tillamook, Astoria, Cannon Beach, Lincoln City, Depoe Bay, Gearhart I literally could go on all day about these gems.

Man you're way over by Tacoma! It'd be crazy fun though to get together and do either of those. Maybe I can hit you up prior to my trip down through Oregon and back this summer.

Are/Did you apply at OHSU? My wife might end up going there. I would rather she got into a school in California though. I hate the weather in the PNW. It rains 9 months straight. In fact it is raining right now outside my window. Although, I have to admit it is cool to trip on a nice day when everything is wet from rain. Everything looks super cool and shiny on shrooms.
I hope I get into California too heh, but yes I did apply to OHSU. I'm in the beginning of the process (should be a few months before I know where I'm going)

I took my first trip to the Pacific Northwest (Portland, Corvalis) this year and enjoyed it thoroughly. As an 11-year resident of Arizona, however, I feel I'd miss the sun if I were to live there. It's sunny every single day here--the exposure renders people blissfully abject to it.

Portland, Oregon is like Seattle but substitute all the yuppies for hippies. The scene there is awesome for music/food/drugs. In my city we had over 30 dispensaries pop up over a few months and they pulled the same DEA shit they pull everywhere else.
But I suppose you can say we are forward thinking states on that topic.

Haha, I do mean no offense to residents of Arizona with my statement as I understand there is beauty to be had in every state (except for Illinois and North Dakota).
Not to mention how jealous I am of not living in Phoenix in 1997.

Please do, I love the NE a lot but still have a passion for my home. I lived in Maine up north of Portland around Sebago Lake for a year and will admit Maine sunsets are by far the best I've seen to this date.

Be Glad! Washington is a shithole, the women here are awful, and so are the rest of the people. I was born in Seattle and live in the state still. One of my old friends is moving to Cali in a few days, i'm really jealous. He is also from here but can't stand as he puts it these "Wash Women" (which are men). Oregon is way better than Washington, people there actually posses social skills, are friendly, have personalities, and aren't 100% bullshit.
Washington State is very clickish, 98% of the people here are tools, and if you're not from here they wont even talk to you. Just like the OP bashing people from California, well I wish they'd all move here, and locals like him would relocate. Most of my friends are from Cali or other places. I do have a fair share of friends I grew up with from here too, but most of them had the good sense to move. To be honest most people from Cali think i'm from there, because nobody else here will f'n talk to them. The majority of my family lives either in California or Montana, both places are better!
Again I was born here so I can bash away. Eastern Washington is one ugly hell hole imo. Not to mention Hanford is the most contaminated nuclear site in the nation. They hide the staggering cancer statistics and are undergoing a 150 year cleanup. I moved friends over there and they can't wait to leave. My mother moved over there, then left state, shortly after. Just an awful place to live.
Expensive place, filled with awful, extremely anti social people, avoid it at all costs.
Google Seattle Freeze and read the Urban Dictionary description. Or google Seattle sucks, and check the message boards. They are both accurate, despite what some locals try and claim.
F it i'll drop some links http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=Seattle%20Freeze
"Seattle Freeze A phrase that describes a local public consensus that states the city of Seattle and/ or its outlying suburbs are generally not friendly, asexual, introverted, socially aloof, clickish or strictly divided through its social classes, thus making the city/ area difficult to make social connections on all levels."

Sounds like you spent all your time in shitty parts of Eastern or are just making presumptions based on things you've heard. Not sure why large forests, mountain landscapes, rivers and lakes galore is an ugly hell hole.
Palouse falls is obviously ugly as fuck...amirite?
The area around it may just be miles of fields but that's not even the good parts of Eastern. Maybe sometime I'll let you in on all the real scenic spots to hit up. If I lived in Seattle I would of moved too...don't worry.
Not sure why someone from Western Washington deems himself an expert on the rest of it... Just because you don't like your side of the state and you can't find a female friend doesn't mean it's the same for every city here. Personal I'd say avoid the Seattle area at all costs. Get into areas like Redmond and it's all rich prudes not to mention how god awful all the drivers are.
There's a reason I leave that side of the state out when talking about the PNW, It's the real shit hole that eats up all the tax payers money from Eastern Washington which really should be getting more.
It's not so much that I'm worried about defending my turf as I know there's nothing wrong with my area. Beautiful women, lots of lakes, barter fairs and more summer fun than you can shake a stick at.
But the fact you seem to think you've toured every inch of Washington possible urks me a little. Oregon has plenty of towns that I'd avoid at all costs too. Luckily I know where all the fun is in Oregon too.

I spent time in the Tri Cities, awful Yakima, and a few other places. It's a desert, dirt brown, awfulness. There are some nice places i'm sure, we have ton here, Snoqualmie, North Bend is amazing, but they're all elitist. Again the people here are awful (locals), I haven't toured all of Washington. But i've been to over 100 cities easily, and have done the mountains, hiking, biking, camping, swimming, went boating, fishing (rivers, lakes, and ocean). Well you guys in eastern WA don't have the ocean... Got a bunch of desert and brown dirt hills though!!
Sure there are some beautiful places, and there are some beautiful women (a few are really cool, but it's so very few), generally their personalities are awful. So awful it's legendary across the nation. Like I said google it and read up on folks from other regions, and states, experience's here (with everyone). They are not fictionalized.. I'm fed up with all of the people here. Yes I have female friends, had far too many girlfriends from here (yes I preferred messing with the California girls). Shit right now i'm getting the evil eye, at some local spots for rejecting a few recently.
I wont get into the stalkers, that call you for countless months on end, after you're done with them, or pop up breathing down your neck. Or the ones that pop out babies, like it's going out of style. If you are willing to deal with their bi-polar, inconsistent, self absorbed, bad personalities, they are indeed here for you to mess with.. I suggest staying liquored up, because otherwise it's not ideal.
I am pretty well traveled for this state and it's far from great. Washington is the anti social mecca of America. Have you ever watched the outtakes from Jackass? I believe it comes after the film. You know where the host describes his experiences with the people, while shooting here in Washington? You should give it a watch if you haven't seen it.
Honestly it is not all that pretty of a place, outside of some spots, and again the people here hate outsiders, and each other too. Like I said you show your true Washingtonian colors, with your negative comments to Californians, and people from other area's living here. That's what's wrong with this F'n place!!! I say bring on the transplants and imports by the millions, there needs to be a serious culture change here.
Oh and Yakima has to be one of the ugliest places i've ever seen in my entire life, absolutely horrendous I do know know a lady with family from there, I about fell over laughing when she suggested we should go there and party.. No way!!

I love this post. It's great to hear about the love that someone has for their setting. Psychonauts understand the importance of a good setting and the Pacific Northwest is definitely an awesome place!

Stopped reading here. Get up to Spokane and the surrounding areas and then have an opinion on real Eastern Washington.
Everything you've named off is Central Washington which IS nothing but desert. You really are lost when it comes to your own state friend...
Not sure if you know this but Spokane technically has a bigger population than Seattle...the issue is Seattle has so many neighboring cities right in its anus that it becomes "the bigger city". Honestly why do you think those places you listed which are clearly no where near Eastern Washington justify the rest of it being ugly?
At least up here you can take a hike up the mountains (which still have snow on them) and hunt for morels all day.

Hey... Everyone can have an opinion. Often someone who has only lived in one spot will see other areas as better. The grass is always greener they say.
I am not a kid nor worry about being out of a clique. I have lived all over the country, grew up in western Oregon, traveled a lot out of the US. No place is perfect. Every place will have pros and cons. I say, if you don't like it someplace, move! Why I don't live in Texas!! There is very little difference between Oregon and Washington, other than Oregon has higher unemployment! I do like the Oregon coast better, but I choose Seattle area to live, and enjoy being in the PNW.
Will tell you that you are miss informed about hanford, there is no increase in cancer there nor is it even the highest contaminated area of the country. But again, believe what you want...

Only issue that I had is he talks about eastern Washington being an ugly hell hole then lists off places in central Washington as his basis for thinking so... There's plenty of states that have a desert one place and lush forests in another seems to me like he's just bitter because of where he had to stay.
Either way not sure why he felt the need to come in here and down talk such beautiful land. The PNW rocks and no one, even desert boy will make me think any less of it. Must be that Seattle mindset we over here in Spokane don't care much for. Lower your nose some.

Psilocybin junkie sounds like a product of the very culture he speaks of. Cynical as all fuck. No wonder you guys get a bad reputation, if all you can do is dump on each other!
You think Washington is a shitty place to live? Hah. Try any of the inland desert meth-infested shit holes in southern California. Riverside. San Bernardino. Bakersfield. It would really teach you to appreciate some green scenery.
I love Oregon. I have never been to Washington but I'm sure I would love it too. I love Northern California as well. I'd stay close to the coast the whole way up though.

This is funny because I grew up for 8 years in Colorado, and thought it was like my 'true home' until I went back after 6 years and shuddered. It's all hicks and pricks to me(as evidenced by the major bashing in the Colorado thread a few months ago after I made legitimate, harmless, completely valid comments about it). I think Psiljunkie is having the same reaction

My parents grew up in Santee, they said they would never move back there compared to where we are now. But I've always wanted to get to San Diego some time as that's where both my parents were born. Only place I've been to was Modesto on an epic booty call. It was a nice little town though.

Haha, I do that on occasion when I leave the city and go out to my parents house in the sticks. I don't blame people for doing things like that but it's just funny how much he generalizes Washington. Rednecks in Colorado are better than rednecks here, trust me. <3 Everyone has 3-5 cars that don't run in their front yard and an equal amount of washers and dryers. Go to the grocery store and meth heads are there to buy more Budweiser and Mt. Dew for their 7 year olds.

I've been to Santee. Its just like every other inland place down here. San Diego is neat downtown. Its kind of a cultural desert though. And an actual desert at the same time, LOL. I've noticed.... San Diego is five years behind Los Angeles when it comes to music and most things cool. There is this infestation of 'socal reggae' which is like listening to a bunch of badly re-written sublime songs. That and bad DJs. The downtown area is cool but overall the scene just doesn't appeal to me. Lots of slick clubs the kind of people that go along with that. There are holes in the wall too of course. I guess I can be cynical about where I come from too. But I didn't mention the beautiful beaches, women, plentiful drugs and awesome party scenes I have come across. And there are good and bad people EVERYWHERE, it doesn't matter where you go.

I just wanted to go to the beaches in San Diego so I have an actual desire to swim. Like someone said earlier and it was lulzy. "Sometimes you can take your shirt off in Oregon if you don't mind stiff nipples".
You can't deny that there can be amazing sunsets too.
