How would you feel if the mountains could talk to you?

I feel like I communicate with the mountains. At least way more than I ever felt communication with jesus back in the day.

The mountains, especially the backountry, the trees, the hiking trails, the solidarity is pretty fucking spiritual.

Has the mountain ever said "Hey there, mind if I have one of them beers" or "you got a purty mouth there boy" no, but I never did that many drugs.

They say mountains can alter moods and talk to you, Well can they roll a blunt for you , and spark it too? Well if they can, then the next time that you're cravin food, just tell you're mom that it was their fault and they'll get sued...

I would feel pretty high if the mountains started talking to me.

But for reals I would feel more one with the mountain.

If the mountain could talk to me it would probably tell me to stop cutting down its ecosystem and turning it into a resort for mass holes, New Yorkers and connecticunts.

Mr.SaltyRelevent quote. "I'd rather go to the mountains and think about god than go to church and think about skiing."


I used to have to go to church on sundays. Luckily when I was 10 or so the mountain in town opened again and could go there after. What a fucking waste of my weekend to spend 1/4 of my skiing time or more sitting in church. When I started working there needed to be able to work both days so would start putting my stuff on near the end of church in the back and get a ride to the hill right when it got out.

Idk, not hating that much. Have a lot of rad friends that go to church and shred. People can do whatever they want. Just didn't get down with being forced. I think I was 16/17 before I officially quit. Not even sure how that happened. I think I just refused to come out of my room and go for a while and after some yelling matches my parents stopped trying to make me go.

Was anybody else forced into church? Looking out the windows and watching the snowflakes build up on pow days. The WORST. Like school except I shouldn't have had to be there. If there is a god I don't think he'd want people sitting inside on such a beautiful winter day. If jesus is your jam, bring your bible snowshoeing or skinning in the back country. I feel like that would be a better use of time.

They speak to me every time i'm out skiing or hiking. Each location has its different feels and speaks in a much deeper manner than words ever could.

Finding your nitch in a religious setting can be difficult. I was lucky to have parents that didn't force me to go when I was older. I now go to youth group which is chill, having a choice to go or not makes it easier to find Jesus on your own time. A lot of the people there ski and it's definately easier to connect on a spiritual level while in the mountains, skiing, hiking, or just being in solitude.

I finally found Jesus at 25... what a winding road but I couldn't be happier. I feel a greater purpose now.

I was, but my parents are chill about it and skip everyday during the ski season. Although it is annoying being forced into going someplace you don't want to to hear people talk about things you don't care about or believe in.

My entire family is a bunch of catholics, then I'm just over here forced to go to church every sunday listening to some old guy who looks like a wizard preach shitty sermons.
