Desert Camping

I always enjoyed hiking in the Southwest desert. I took every chance I
|
|
could find to get away from my hectic day to day life and surround
|
|
myself with the quiet and desolation of the desert. It was a typical
|
|
test of survival for me. Somehow, after managing to stay alive in
|
|
that extreme environment for a few days, all my problems at home seemed
|
|
trivial.
|
|
|
|
I've hiked in other climates before, but the desert was my favorite.
|
|
Even though it reached 100 degrees at times, my sweat evaporated
|
|
instantly in the dry air. It never really felt that hot. I walked
|
|
around wearing nothing but the bare essentials and felt really
|
|
comfortable.
|
|
|
|
Of course the major problem was water. There was no water in the
|
|
desert so I had to carry all my water with me. It's easy to drink a
|
|
gallon a day out there, so that always limited my hikes to 2 or 3 days
|
|
maximum.
|
|
|
|
I finally decided one day to push the limits and try to stay out in the
|
|
desert for 4 days in a row. I wanted to hike where I was sure that I
|
|
was not going to see anyone else during that time.
|
|
|
|
So I took a few days off from work and drove to my favorite national
|
|
park during the height of summer. Few people would bother to go there
|
|
in that heat. Fewer still would leave their car to hike for many miles.
|
|
|
|
I brought few supplies with me. I took a small tent, a light sleeping
|
|
bag, a stove, a lantern, some gas and food, a pot, a small roll of
|
|
toilet paper, and 4 gallons of water. The pack weighed 40 pounds.
|
|
|
|
I wasted no time and started on the trail just as the sun rose, before
|
|
it got really hot. It was rough at first, going up steep grades with
|
|
such a heavy pack. But I just reminded myself that the pack's weight
|
|
would dwindle to almost nothing by the time I came back.
|
|
|
|
The first day was slow and uneventful. A few dayhikers passed me during
|
|
the day, and I saw them on their way back to their cars a few hours
|
|
later. In the late afternoon, I found a good campsite, set up my tent,
|
|
and ate dinner. I watched the shadows of the rocks around me move
|
|
slowly as the sun set. Far away, I saw a few flashes of lightning as a
|
|
thundercloud passed by.
|
|
|
|
The peace was extraordinary. There was no movement or sound for many
|
|
hours. I didn't want to make any noise myself and destroy the magic
|
|
that I felt.
|
|
|
|
I finally turned on my lantern as it became too dark to see well. I was
|
|
soon visited by a few low flying bats, eager to catch the insects that
|
|
were attracted to the lantern. Some were brave enough to fly within a
|
|
foot of my head making me duck. I laid flat on the ground and enjoyed
|
|
the show.
|
|
|
|
The bats left after a while and I shut off the lantern. I watched the
|
|
stars for another hour. I have always been amazed at the number of
|
|
stars I can see out in the backcountry. There were no other sources
|
|
of light, natural or manmade. I climbed into my sleeping bag and
|
|
quickly fell asleep.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I got up at dawn and started out again as soon as I could to get more
|
|
distance. That day, the only life I saw were a few small lizards and
|
|
some hardy birds among the dry brush. I wondered how they could
|
|
survive in this land for their entire lives--much longer than I could.
|
|
|
|
I set up camp again in the afternoon just as I saw an enormous
|
|
thunderstorm approach. I didn't want to set my tent up in the rain
|
|
and get all my equipment drenched.
|
|
|
|
The storm came and it was stronger than I expected. The rain pelted
|
|
the tent hard. I was afraid the tent would collapse from the pressure
|
|
of the water. Lightning flashed and the sound of thunder ripped through
|
|
the air. I watched the storm as best I could from inside the tent but
|
|
my visibility was reduced to a couple of feet.
|
|
|
|
The rain let up a little after about ten minutes. I looked out and saw
|
|
rivers appear out of nowhere. They were carrying water dumped from the
|
|
storm from higher elevations. That's when I had a brilliant idea.
|
|
|
|
I stripped naked to keep my clothes dry and ran out into the rain
|
|
carrying 2 gallon jugs and my pot. There was no need to be
|
|
self-conscious out here. No one would be crazy enough to stay on the
|
|
trail in this weather. I ran to one of the streams and filled the jugs
|
|
to capacity. I returned to my tent and left the water outside. I stayed
|
|
out and enjoyed the natural shower that rained on my naked body.
|
|
|
|
After the storm ended, I put on my clothes and boiled all the water I
|
|
collected. I went to sleep happy. I was set. I decided to extend my
|
|
trip to 6 days instead of just 4. I had to stretch my food supply a
|
|
little, but I usually brought more than I needed anyway.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Soon after I started out on the third day, the trail ended. I had a
|
|
detailed topographic map of the region with me. I chose my own path in
|
|
the backcountry and decided to go as far as I could that day.
|
|
|
|
Throughout the day, I thought about how I was probably the first person
|
|
to ever walk on this path. I was totally isolated. There was no sign
|
|
of any person except myself--no signs, no trail, no footprints.
|
|
|
|
I hiked until the sun was at the horizon. The sky was clear; it
|
|
probably wouldn't rain. I decided not to bother with the tent that
|
|
night. I wanted to sleep out in the open. The insects didn't bother me
|
|
the past couple of nights. After a quick dinner in the fading twilight,
|
|
I noticed that the air was unusually warm. I decided to go all the way
|
|
and sleep naked under the stars in the sandy soil without a sleeping
|
|
bag--just me, the earth, and the sky.
|
|
|
|
I thought about what I felt as I laid down naked in the sand looking up
|
|
at the thousands of stars overhead. I never slept in the nude before,
|
|
let alone in the middle of nowhere. I felt very vulnerable, like I
|
|
removed every last bit of my armor and opened myself totally to the
|
|
land. It was a little frightening to be that exposed, never having
|
|
done so in real life. Finally, I drifted into sleep.
|
|
|
|
|
|
I found myself in a dream. I was running down a narrow, winding path.
|
|
The air was hot and my throat was parched from running so hard. The
|
|
sky had a deep blood red color.
|
|
|
|
I was running from a dragon. I looked over my shoulder as I ran. I
|
|
couldn't see it, but I knew it was there. I kept running. The ground
|
|
became hotter and my feet began to hurt with each step. I kept running
|
|
to keep away from the dragon, but I just couldn't get away.
|
|
|
|
Suddenly, out of nowhere, the dragon pounced on me from the sky. We
|
|
tumbled on the ground for a few seconds as I franticly tried to escape.
|
|
It wrapped its arms around me making sure I couldn't move. At this
|
|
point, I was so scared that I was paralyzed.
|
|
|
|
I couldn't think of a way out. I knew my life was over at that point,
|
|
but I had a desperate hope that I could somehow get away. I closed my
|
|
eyes and waited to die.
|
|
|
|
After some time, I realized I was still alive. I didn't know what the
|
|
dragon was waiting for. I opened my eyes and saw the dragon's head.
|
|
It was covered in shadow and I couldn't see it very well. She was
|
|
carefully looking me over. I then realized that I was totally naked.
|
|
|
|
Her arms started to slowly move across my body. She held me tight to
|
|
her chest as her scaly arms slid across my back, caressing me. In my
|
|
fright, I was surprised to feel that I was becoming aroused by her touch.
|
|
|
|
Her arms pressed into my back, her legs wrapped around my torso, and her
|
|
tail slid between my legs and up my spine. I felt encompassed by this
|
|
writhing mass of scaly muscle. She never said a word; she never uttered
|
|
a sound. The air was filled only with the sound of her body rubbing
|
|
against mine. My fright started to slip away and I surrendered myself
|
|
to her embrace.
|
|
|
|
At some point, she pulled me away from her and held me out at arm's
|
|
length. I did not struggle one bit, drugged as I was with pleasure.
|
|
I wanted to get closer to her again, but I waited for her to make
|
|
the next move.
|
|
|
|
She placed her head close to my body and started to flick her forked
|
|
tongue at my neck. The light touch of her tongue was extraordinary.
|
|
Her head slowly slid down my chest and waist until it reached my waiting
|
|
erection. She stayed there and watched my penis bob up and down,
|
|
pleading with her to get some attention. Finally, her head moved
|
|
quickly, engulfing my cock.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
I woke suddenly out of the dream, and I was breathing hard. I looked up
|
|
and saw the moon shining in the sky. I began to remember the dream and
|
|
the great feelings I had. I wished there was some way to get back. I
|
|
noticed that some of what I was feeling right then was a bit too
|
|
realistic. I looked at my body and saw a long snake lying across my
|
|
chest and its head firmly attached to the head of my penis!
|
|
|
|
I screamed and tried to get the snake away from me. The snake was a bit
|
|
startled that its prey was still fighting and it clamped down hard.
|
|
That sent tingles of pleasure throughout my body reminding me once again
|
|
about the dream. I stopped fighting and decided to let the snake have
|
|
its way with me.
|
|
|
|
In the moonlight I saw that the snake must have been about 12 feet long.
|
|
Its body writhed across mine anxiously as its head tried harder and
|
|
harder to take in more of my dick.
|
|
|
|
I just laid there taking in all the sensations. It took a while for the
|
|
snake to take in my dick. I could feel the muscles inside his mouth
|
|
rhythmically pulling across the skin on my penis. My arms moved across
|
|
the ground; my hands gripped at the sand.
|
|
|
|
The snake finally hit bottom, but didn't stop trying to get its meal.
|
|
It began moving around wondering what it should do. He slid his body
|
|
down to my legs and tried to get under them. I obliged by lifting my
|
|
legs a little.
|
|
|
|
The snake started wrapping its body around my legs. It finally wrapped
|
|
itself 3 times around my legs and started to squeeze in an attempt to
|
|
somehow dislodge its "meal" from my body. The constriction was
|
|
wonderful. I struggled a bit against him to test my immobility and
|
|
found that I could not pull my legs apart at all. I revelled in the
|
|
feeling and closed my eyes, thinking of the dragon fom my dream.
|
|
|
|
I opened my eyes again and looked at myself. I imagined that the
|
|
entire snake, and everything that I felt about it, the pulsing within
|
|
its mouth and its scaly body wrapped around my legs, were part of my
|
|
dick. I thought of my dick as this 12 foot long sliding mass of muscle.
|
|
Thinking this and actually seeing it in the moonlight pushed me over the
|
|
edge. I came hard and long into the hungry mouth of the snake. It was,
|
|
without a doubt, the best climax I ever had.
|
|
|
|
I fell back panting, tired from the experience. Slowly, I lost my
|
|
erection. The snake probably thought its dinner wasn't worth it anymore
|
|
and gave up its pursuit. It uncoiled its body from my legs and
|
|
disgorged my penis. It left, looking for easier prey.
|
|
|
|
I laid on the sand, trying to understand everything that happened. It
|
|
was the most intense event that ever happened to me. I kept thinking
|
|
about it, unable to sleep, until the sun rose.
|
|
|
|
I got up, got dressed, and put on my pack. It was time to go home.
|
|
I looked around for the snake but I didn't see it anywhere. I pulled
|
|
out my map and marked down where I was. I was certainly going to visit
|
|
this place again, sometime soon.

|
Once again, this story is fiction. I don't know enough about snakes
|
|
to say whether this scenario is possible or not. Their teeth are
|
|
certainly sharp enough to cause injury. But a little fantasy never
|
|
hurt anybody.
