Although I’ve hiked many mountains, my first expedition to Minaret Lake Trail was a special one, enhanced by the company of Big Daddy mushrooms (BD). While some were grappling with the tough terrain, I moved forward undeterred, much like a wild beast in its natural environment. The added energy from Big Daddy was instrumental in conquering the high peak.

Key Takeaways:

  • BD mushrooms are powerful strains that may induce intense hallucinations. However, effects may differ when consumed in lesser amounts.
  • The mushrooms amplified visual perception and fostered a deeper connection with nature, offering a refreshed perspective.
  • The effects can begin about thirty minutes after consumption, even with a small dose, and may be characterized by a comforting warmth spreading across the body.

Mountains and Mushrooms: My Hiking Journey

I’ve conquered many mountains and crossed various trails, such as Skyline, Fundy, and Bruce. My recent adventure was the Minaret Lake Trail. The trail posed a challenge that I felt compelled to undertake, eventually proving to be one of the most strenuous trails I’ve ever encountered.

The mountain was truly majestic. Despite the tough trail, the vista from the peak was incredibly spectacular, showcasing alpine lakes afar. The surrounding landscapes, adorned with glistening snowcaps on the mountains, were equally stunning.

The experience was remarkable, especially due to the unique bond I formed with nature, amplified by the mushrooms I ingested.

The Rigorous Trek

The hike was not a lone endeavor; it was a group expedition. We had a collective understanding to ascend together for the safety of all. Judging by their athletic physiques and past experiences, it seemed like they would accomplish the trail with ease.

However, that was a miscalculation. My comrades were exhausted just an hour into the hike. Even though they did reach the apex, their experience was not as enriching as mine, which was heightened by psilocybin.

The vitality from the Big Daddy mushrooms transformed me into an indomitable force, determined, relentless, and excited to receive the wild, waiting to greet me as the ultimate gift from nature. I’m not suggesting that

It revitalized my physical movements and fortified my stamina for the persistent ascent.

On the contrary, I found it so comforting that I barely felt any exhaustion. The cold breeze of the Sierra Nevada mountain range didn’t disturb me. My sharpened hearing made it seem as if I could engage in conversation with the chirping birds.

In short, I was so absorbed in re-establishing my bond with nature that the notion of “fatigue” completely disappeared from my mind.

The Obstacles

Undoubtedly, tripping on mushrooms whilst hiking does pose certain challenges, especially considering the rough landscape. Some elements were seamless, while others didn’t go as planned. There were minor setbacks, such as unintentionally straying onto a different path due to confusion.

Preparation: My Approach for the Adventure

Organizing a hike doesn’t necessitate a strict schedule, but compliance with fundamental hiking rules is essential. If you’re contemplating consuming Big Daddy magic mushrooms, additional care is required. Start by familiarizing yourself with the possible side effects during the excursion.

Understanding Big Daddy

An important aspect about BD is that its moniker is derived from its remarkable physical characteristics. They resemble a fatherly figure with a robust stem and a cap that isn’t completely unfurled.

They showcase deep, earthy shades of brown, tan, and gold, which makes them easy to spot.

Potency

If you were to inquire from a psychonaut or a mushroom connoisseur for a recommendation of a strong strain, BD would come up. Its name is a testament to its strength—a transcending experience. They are potent and can facilitate a deep psychedelic trip. Their effects can encompass:

  • Amplified visual and auditory perception
  • Deep introspection
  • Altered state of consciousness
  • Intense euphoria or body high

While they are perfect for seasoned users, novices can also partake in smaller quantities. Of course, this can fluctuate based on personal tolerance, mode of ingestion, and metabolic speed.

Suggested Dosage

All types of magic mushrooms can be appropriate for any individual, regardless of their level of familiarity—be they a novice or a pro. It’s all about determining the correct dosage.

Reflecting on the Hiking Setting

When preparing for a hike, it’s crucial to investigate trails you feel confident in finishing, particularly if you plan to ingest shrooms. My successful journey resulted not only from the breathtaking landscape and wilderness but also from careful planning regarding the use of psilocybin. 

The meandering trail allowed me to assess my visual enhancements; even though I experienced some disorientation, the route seemed straightforward and unambiguous despite its winding nature. Moreover, since shrooms can boost a sense of connection with nature, I believed Sierra Nevada was an ideal starting point.

Accurate Dosing

If you’re a first-timer, begin with a minimal dosage. Fifty milligrams was an appropriate starting point for me. For those with more experience, a moderate to high dosage may be fitting. 2g might be adequate, but for those who want to test their limits, 5g is suggested.

What to Bring Along?

For every journey, the initial step involves packing necessary items, such as:

  • An emergency medical kit
  • Emergency whistles or signal devices
  • A mobile phone (although signal coverage might be sparse in mountainous regions)
  • A headlamp or handheld torch
  • Light refreshments and water

The Ascent: My Hiking Adventure with Big Daddy Shrooms

“There’s always gonna be another mountain, I’m always gonna wanna make it move…”

I’m not aiming to be excessively sentimental. This was simply the effect of the mushrooms on me. It felt as if the obstacles vanished, and they sparked a desire in me to conquer different terrains. This could be attributed to the introspective influence of the mushrooms which led to a shift in my perspective.

Order of Effects

  • Prologue: Roughly thirty minutes post ingestion of a small dose, I could feel the gradual onset. It filled me with a soft warmth. Everything around me seemed more vivid as the psilocybin heightened my visual perception. I became sharply aware of minute details, the textures, the patterns of descending rocks, and tiny fragments. A peaceful atmosphere surrounded me.
  • Peak: Approximately at the one hour-30 minutes point, the zenith of the effects began to surround me. I was filled with drive. The bird songs seemed like they were engaging in a conversation with me and unknowingly, I was imitating their calls. The environment seemed extraordinarily inviting.
  • Epilogue: The decline was peaceful, infusing a sense of comfort and mental ease. The four-hour journey slowly faded as we neared the top of the mountain. The sharpness of my senses gently decreased. It reminded me of the songs from the 70s that end with a gradual fade-out of music and vocals. The effects were still noticeable after use, helping me to maintain concentration.

Lessons Learned

The journey was mostly uplifting. Detailed planning and setting suitable goals allowed me to achieve this feat. I consumed the Big Daddy mushroom in a calm, safe environment, surrounded by nature, to fully engage in the experience without any distractions.

I made sure to be in a positive mental state before the experience. This strengthened my mental resilience for the trail.

The two challenges were timing and disorientation. The abrupt onset caught me off guard, and navigating through the uneven terrains became confusing at the peak. In hindsight, it would have been wise to wait for the effects to stabilize before setting off on the journey.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I incorporate it into my food for more subtle consumption?

Yes, you can. You can choose to brew it into a lemon tek or grind the dried pieces and blend them into your homemade meals or snacks. You can also add them to your drinks for easier ingestion.

Should I wait for the effects to wear off or start the hike at the peak?

The ideal timing for your psychedelic journey depends on the dose and your experience level. For higher doses, we recommend tripping prior to the hike for safety purposes. Once the peak effects have subsided, you can then embark on your hike to enjoy the peaceful aftermath. If you’re planning to hike while influenced, stick to small or moderate doses.

Is prior hiking experience necessary to consume shrooms?

If you’re new to both hiking and psychedelics, we suggest trying them independently first. Start with a lower to medium dose of mushrooms and take a short walk in a calm, familiar place to get used to the altered state of consciousness and the physical demands of walking.
