One way to get some sort of reset without giving up everything you've worked towards is to hike out and camp in backcountry. You're only taking what you can carry, so you leave a whole lot behind. If you're still in California, you have a lot of options within striking distance.
There isn't really a pinnacle with the backcountry or walking on the ground - there's always a longer trail or more distant target.
- barrenko 6y agoYeah, not really. Like in the story in the link, and more so in the movie "Castaway" there is a big difference to what you will undergo if you are saved in a reasonable timeframe and when you DON'T get saved within that timeframe or get saved at all. If Tom Hanks in Castaway got saved in a month or two he would mostly dust himself off and have a GREAT story to tell. But he didn't and now he's both kinda alive and not alive and kinda weird to himself and other people. Humans go through some weird stuff when hooked off civilization. Even within the civilization some people fall through the "cracks". What those cracks are I do not know. Resets are not for the faint of heart, and really shouldn't be messed with.
- prawn 6y agoI'm talking about going camping for a few days every now and then as a change of pace. And about how in hiking there is no summit that ends your pursuit - you can find another hike or do something longer if you're keen. You appear to be talking about people getting lost in life and death situations.
