Description
Hosted by: Anrif
As many of you may know, I am gradually scaling down the number of events I personally host. My focus is shifting toward building the infrastructure and systems that will allow our community to grow in scale and autonomy, while creating a more professional framework for the future.
This effort will take several weeks &/or months, and that being said, I still enjoy hosting on occasion! This Sunday's walk up Mt-Royal is one such event.
For full transparency: I will be undertaking this hike while under the effects of LSD & MDMA.
My intention is to begin as the substance takes effect, reach the summit as it peaks, and then meditate on the mountaintop for an indeterminate period of time.
You are welcome to join me for the hike up, and to stay as long or as briefly as you wish at the summit. I may meditate for five minutes or five hours. I cannot say in advance.
If you feel called to come along for part of the experience, the door is open!
Please account for the fact that I make no promises of accompanying you back on the return trip.
We’ll meet at 10:30 AM near the Street Fitness gym, a short walk from Mont-Royal and Laurier metro stations, then make our way up the mountain together at a steady, social pace. This event is suitable to all fitness levels and forms of company. Come solo, bring a friend, or invite family. All are welcome.
Once at the summit, there will be time to pause, rest, and for those who wish, sit in quiet meditation before settling in for the meditation or making the return trip down (depending on your preference).
What to Know
• 1-Way trip hike (guaranteed), suitable for all fitness levels
• Bring water, hat/sunscreen, and a snack (especially if you intend to stay/meditate)
• Open to all (solo, with friends, or family)
• No expectations, just community
• The return trip will depend on when participants wish to descend

Final Considerations:
While I will be under the effect of powerful psychedelics, please note that I do not engage in nor condone self-harm. I know the quality of what I take, and trust my mind and body to handle this experience based off of many years of personal experimentation.
You are most welcome to join! That said, please consider the following:
- I am not asking, telling, nor even encouraging you to show up in an altered state.
- I am not prohibiting you from doing so, either.
- I will not be distributing (selling/sharing) LSD or MDMA, and wish to remind you that while mostly safe, it is still illegal.
Listen to your intuition, and above all, respect yourself 💜
See you on the mountain!
