I hear them everywhere I camp except at Black Rock City. The coyotes you hear out there are actually people...

Coyotes are everywhere. I was watching something and they said they tagged over 1000 in Chicago. They said that they even know to look left first before crossing the street. Pretty smart.

I have heard them once howling by me. When I was camping in Sequoia I heard them all night all around me.

Did it talk back?

My sister said there are some by this river I was at in MO. I would love to get a good photo of one. They are very rare to see though.

For some reason I was thinking that a bobcat was a cougar. People call them different names. Like mountain lions are cougars.

There are cougars by my sister in MO. I am thinking about spending some time there and trying to get a photo. They are rare to see and usually don't attack people but it does happen. There are some videos of cougar encounters on youtube. When they look at you they just stare you down and you can tell they are thinking about eating your ass. I am not afraid of them but I'm not going to try to pet one.

I spent a shit load of time in the wild in CA and never seen one. I would always see signs saying beware this is cougar territory. 8 years ago I was in CA on vacation and went hiking in the mountains near Malibu. I seen the sign saying there are Cougars there. So I ended up going off the trail to climb up to this peak to see the view. I ended up taking this other trail that was actually part of the pacific crest trail. I was hiking for like 8 hours and my legs were tired as fuck. So I am in this valley and was thinking this looks like a perfect spot for cougars. So there was a pipe on the ground and I picked it up. I could have swore I heard a growl shortly after that but maybe it was my mind playing tricks on me.

Anyways I came out to a beach with a ranger station. I told the ranger I got lost hiking. He said you can use the phone to call a cab. I asked do you have a number for a taxi company? Then another ranger said he would give me a ride.

I hop in the front seat and there is a shotgun right in the middle. He gets in and asks to see my ID. I could of picked it up and started blasting. It was about a 20 minute drive back to my rental car.

Same trip I took the Ford Taurus rental car off roading in the desert. I went through a spot that was some soft loose sand. Good thing I didn't get stuck. It was illegal too. You are supposed to have an off road sticker and vehicle.

Bears suck.  I don't care how adorable they try to make them.  They suck.

When I see a bear, there's this instinctual reaction in me that takes over. I run at the bear or bears at full speed yelling as loud as I possibly can "BAD BEAR!". They don't want anything to do with a crazy human.

I was long board surfing on some waist to chest sized waves on the east coast and a bottle nose dolphin swam the short ride beside me , literally a foot to two beside the long board I was riding till he or she broke off at the end of the ride . I'd been eating golden teachers and amazonians etc for months prior on a weekly regular thing , so when it happened it felt very spiritual , I always remember the angle of the sun and the clarity of the water etc. but that mammal swimming up beside , I've never been that close to them before . It was very touching


--------------------

The really important facts were that spatial relationships had ceased to matter very much and that my mind was perceiving the world in terms of other than spatial categories. At ordinary times the eye concerns itself with such problems as where? — how far? — how situated in relation to what? In the mescaline experience the implied questions to which the eye responds are of another order. Place and distance cease to be of much interest. The mind does its perceiving in terms of intensity of existence, profundity of significance, relationships within a pattern."

Was tripping with a group near this area known for giant elk. We found this beautiful strand and decided to sit down in a trip circle and talk about life and shit. HUGE bull elk saunters over to our tribe and since everyone's tripping no one is freaking yet, I think I was the only one even aware of it at first. Let's be real, male elk are dangerous but it was all good vibes so we just kept chilling and tried to ignore it/be chill with it. Pushes his 900 lbs ass through a gap in our circle and lays down.  A couple of us got the balls to pet him and this girl in our group snapped a couple pics with her little Polaroid. I got harsh into the peaks about this time and I was on the biggest dose so the next while is a blur but what I think was about an hour passed before it got up and left. Only one person even noticed that it had, I guess the rest of us were writhing around too enraptured to notice this massive being peace out.  One of the most "magical" times in my life.




That is cool as hell.




I need to spend more time in nature.

Missouri. MO is Missouri right? I always thought that was weird. Then what is Montana?

I don't know where those places are at. My sister lives next to Hannibal. Hannibal is where Mark Twain is from. It's a pretty cool little town and beautiful area. I actually got some photos of 2 coyote pups when I was there which is rare. I posted them in the random outdoors pictures thread. Some good shots.

That would be soo cool to surf along side a dolphin. I have seen that on tv. I have never surfed but will be moving to CA. Maybe I will try it. I really don't like going into the water though. Plus I really wouldn't want to lose an arm or leg to a shark. Not scared just don't know if it's worth the risk for me.

Bendrider you should definitely spend more time in nature. I love it. The first time I tripped in nature was earlier this year. I did 2 feet of San Pedro. I seen 3 coyotes, a deer walked right up behind me, seen the biggest racoon I have ever seen, a hawk flew like 20 feet over my head, seen a bunch of herons and egrets, a chipmunk, and 2 small birds fell like 5 feet in front of me fighting or mating. It was epic.

I'm going to Utah this month and am thinking about doing some San Pedro at Bryce Canyon. That would be cool as fuck.

Utah does have some of the most beautiful spots in the country, and good gem mining. The only thing that keeps me out of Utah is their scary weed laws. Going from a legal state to a state still at war is kind of traumatic. It's a really dehumanizing feeling.

God, my brother and I went to Moab and to a hostel called the Lazy Lizard.  We got lost and this guy that lived right next to it in a trailer came out and said, why are you here basically.  He knew the lazy lizard was just next door.  My brother asked him and he said I am getting my gun and he meant it, seriously.  So we made our way out of there.  Cool place if anyone ever feels like visiting Moab. 

Utah native but Moab and Park City is in Utah but not Utah.  Liberals mainly.  Where people are so used to being out alone and away from people they will bump into you walking into a grocery score to resupply on needs since they are so used to nothing around them but rock. 

Gun laws overall are fucked up in this country.  Utah is one of many. Nature puts on some more amazing lethal shows of force than any man or woman with firearms.  I loved the joke about the headline on the Onion saying that Hurricane Katrina came back to New Orleans and apologized.  Nature is nature and man is a mosquito destroying it but it works long term and we will abolish our species in time.
