    Hey quick question to you Shroom pros!

    I want to hike with a friend on a trail/mountain on shrooms. (I'm hoping about 3-3.5g) I've never done shrooms, but I've done acid. I could hike safely on acid, will the visuals on shrooms make it too hard to climb on a mountain with a few rocky parts? Or will I be fine? For the most part the path is just steep hills and I know the area fairly well, but I'd prefer not to get injured. Thanks any advice would be of help.

    And how long should I be expected to be induced from consumption from a dose of 3g? if I eat them at say 12:00 noon

    I've had a friend who fell like 15-20 feet down a hill from this narrow path that we were walking at night while on shrooms. We weren't very familiar with that area though but still I'm wary recommending that it's a good idea hiking narrow/steep hills on shrooms.

    I have hiked on shrooms before though without problems, it's not so much the visuals that make it too hard to hike it's that shrooms impair motor coordination and spatial awareness. So you may experience your walkway further or closer than it actually is and often when I take shrooms I spend the first half of the trip in one spot pretty much so I'd recommend having a area to sit/lay down at if you decide to go hiking.

    The main trip will last about 6-7 hours from 3 grams of shrooms but you may have some lingering effects.

    Maybe only take 2 grams. 3.5 makes me trip pretty hard

    I would suggest not hiking for your first time on shrooms.

    hmm that's disappointing..
    But one thing, about your friend guerillabedlam-- hiking at night is hard sober.. I wouldn't even consider it while induced on anything. I've had to hike back down in the dark, and your vision is almost worthless. It can be very frightening.

    I've been on this same trail/hike while very high on weed. Even with this, is it unsafe to try this hike? There is a spot that we could hang out for awhile without moving, in fact there are many, so we can always stop to "rest"

    I don't know the trail, so I can't really say much about how safe it is. There is nothing inherently unsafe with walking a trail on shrooms and you being familiar with the trail is a plus. However the fact you can walk the trail high on weed does not suggest much about how you will fare with it on shrooms.

    I didn't present my anecdote as an attempt at a scare story or anything but to emphasize that shrooms can be extremely mind altering/impairing and caution should be taken when exploring areas where there is a possible chance of injury when sober.

    I thuroughly enjoy hiking on shrooms. With that being said, I would not recommend hiking your first time on shrooms. You should familiarize yourself with its effects before putting yourself in the position of your impaired motor skills causing harm.

    The fact that you hiked safely on weed has no relevance to doing it on shrooms. Even acid. For many people, shrooms can be 3 times as powerful as even the strongest acid.

    Okay, I wasn't intending to attack you guerillabedlam or anyone's idea. I was just curios if those experiences would make a difference. Thanks for the advice everyone. I hope to write my first trip report about this trip. I think I will still plan to hike this trail or go through some woods, but I'll take more precaution then I would have initially felt needed. So thank you :)

    It is a very safe trail. Acid seemed to have little to no danger in climbing (although that was a different trail), so it was interesting to hear how different it can be for mushrooms. We may have to set up a campsite and walk around the woods then

    about the diff btwn acid and mushrooms - shrooms can make me feel sort of intoxicated and sloppy, while acid makes me feel more connected to my movements, unless i take a higher dose.

    i would suggest having a campsite, eating the shrooms, and then deciding if you feel comfortable with a hike once you're tripping. you might be content to just lay back at your camp site :)

    just try doing a soft hike in some pastures or lightly wooded areas for your first time just to get a feel for it

    Id keep the dose around 2 grams as shit can get crazy on a full dose and you could get lost or heaven forbid you get stuck in a time loop.
