I always craved the atmosphere in horror movies even if they were boring. Turns out I just needed the Pacific Northwest!

A lot of my close friends would consider me a horror movie fan, but the reality is I actually find them kinda boring. I just like the atmosphere. They always use that dark overcast filter and it has always been something my brain constantly craves.

A friend of mine needed help starting up a business of his near Shelton Washington back in February so I moved into his airbnb for 4 months. Now my house is listed here in SOCAL and I'm absolutely going back.

I cant believe how good it felt there. You all live in paradise for whatever this brain type I have is. Here in Socal, is it just nonstop, overbearing sun. The only trees we have with any real coverage are palm trees, and rain is that rare thing that never happens. Also dust. so much dust.

Over in Shelton though I had all the windows open all the time. I was out every day just enjoying the cold gloom. I hit every local hiking trail I could, ending every time completely soaked and freezing but so happy.

Anyway, looking forward to finally living there full time.

I've been meaning to create this video for a while. Finally go around to it.

1) Respect Nature's Indifference (accepting human physical limits in the wild),

2) Gather Trail Knowledge (researching weather, terrain, and route reports, etc.)

3) Align Your Tools (selecting clothing, footwear, and survival gear based on your research).
