Over the last three year's I've been going to all kinds of crazy summer gatherings. Places like Burning Man, Camp Omega, Return to the Source, Dirt Circus, a Vipassana Retreat, and Winter Warrior. But everything I do feeds back here to the Shabin. I want to offer a cheaper, nearby, escape to nature and growing closer celebration for the people that I know! So if you've heard my silly stories and want to have some of that fun yourself, please put your phone on airplane mode, buckle yourself up in a full squat like Jesse, and we'll fly high into the mountains.

Many of you have already visited the good ol' Shabin, but this year, to bring us all together I hauled up this beautiful bell tent, with its own wood stove! So there room for at least 10 of us. I'm excited to see who makes it.
