How to Find the Others 1

First, and foremost: This post is not asking "does anyone want to go do drugs in my area?"
Here's my thing: I very much like backpacking. I probably spend more time doing that than anything else except sleeping. It's become a really big part of my life. I also very much like psychedelics (I've gone back and forth between LSD, DMT, and mushrooms as my choice substance, but this past year it's been a lot of LSD). As such, I spend a lot of time mixing the two. At least once a month I go out on multi-day hikes and eat acid, but it's always alone.
This has been great because it gives me time to get by myself, and really think about life, reality, the universe, nature, etc, but at the same time, I miss the days when I was younger and I could find friends who wanted to just hang out and trip.
So this is what I'm wondering: How do people find the others in this sort of situation? I tend to hike long days (25-30 miles in a day is pretty normal for me), and most people aren't able to keep up with that pace. Then on top of it, I find it hard to find people who like LSD and also want to be active. Most of the acid heads in my life are more or less couch-bound stoners (sorry for the stereotype, but that's just the way that they are). There have to be other people out in my area who both like hiking and psychedelics, but how do I go about finding them?
Thanks for your advice

Go to a psychedelic or jam band show and start making friends. People are real friendly. Look for the people wearing hiking shoes .
-------------------- its that bitter-sweet-sour, electric-smooth-twang. everything you ever have, are. or will feel along with every emotion, joy, hate, love, fear or aspiration burning down your nerves and into the fabric of your place in this existence at ten thousand degrees above and below zero will you find yourself wondering if you've been dead or alive this whole time. being born over and over only to die over and over hoping the wheel stops in the same place it started when you spun it, and when it finally does and you can step back and take a nice deep breath you realize how beautiful life is, remember, wake up to the most beautiful day of your life every single day, its just the way.

Even at the shows you'll spot em out. Ive seen people at multiple fests in a row claiming to have hiked to each one from each other. Ive seen people hiking the AT stop by at fests, they're deffinatley out there. Even up in the mountains cam be a good place. Although some people are friendly at first but then get creeper out if your encounter I more than a few minutes, which is understandable as your a stranger and miles from a road.

I love psychedelics. I love nature even more though. I feel the same way I'm always just trying to go a little farther but all my friends just want to go like 3 or 4 miles at most and then they just want to go back and smoke weed. It seems like no one understands the true beauty of nature

You should start a psychedelic hiking sub forum or fb group and go from there

I'm not even much of a hiker (unless you count living in a forested area and walking into town, LOL) and have *only* tried acid at outdoor/camping things but I know those feels a bit- all I wanted to do was investigate the scenery, but it's way harder than it should be to find people who want to go explore and don't consider an hour or three to be some sort of hardcore slog

I have always wanted to go on a nature walk during LSD. The day after the first time I took LSD I went on a walk around my neighborhood it was fall so the leaves where blowing. I remember looking around at all the leaves blowing in the wind and I started looking at everything really closely. Then I broke down crying I had never been so confused it seemed like for the first time in a long time I was paying attention to my surroundings.
I like LSD but I always start getting these weird thoughts like I don't pay enough attention to beauty in life and beauty in the world instead I spend my time watching violent negative things on TV. I would like to go hiking on LSD but I would probably take forever LSD makes me interested in the strangest of things I feel like I would probably start staring at a tree and wouldn't be able to keep up.
As for finding the others im out of luck I cant even find a decent plug on LSD anymore nor can think of a place to find LSD users down to go hiking.
-------------------- 400 years ago-The earth is the center of the universe and anyone who says outherwise is a heretic. How dare you claim that the earth is not the center of the universe? Your looking glass your moons around Jupiter and your navigation tables prove nothing. Your heresy is an affront to the church and to God who made the earth the center of the universe. Now-All drugs that can expand consciousness are without medical or social justification and anyone who uses them is a criminal. How dare you claim that an understanding of God is to be found in a white powder? This talk of communication with the inner self, the finding of one's way into the hidden reaches of the unconscious, is New Age nonsense and simply an excuse to use dangerous drugs.

I made most of my friends from club meetings at my college, if you're in college I definitely recommend finding a club to join
