I did a solo 5 day backpacking trip a few years ago in Utah and on my third day I was passed by another solo backpacker. His face and bald head looked painted white with some kind of make up. He kinda looked like the War Boys from Mad Max Fury road. He said hi to me as he passed me and I was a little weirded out. A couple hours later I stopped at a small lake to make camp for the night and I noticed the dude was on the opposite side of the lake from me. He waved at me as he went down to the water and started washing his makeup off his head. I decided to be friendly and go chat with him. I approached him and said hello. I also noticed that he was a pale white ginger. He said sorry if he freaked me out with his white shit all over his head. He was wearing some super heavy duty sun block all over his head because he was practically albino. He was a cool dude and asked me to hang out by his campfire and have dinner. We ate dinner and talked about the hike and I produced my whiskey and he produce his rum and we had some drinks. We chatted late into the night and made love under the stars. When I woke up in the morning he was packed up and long gone but he had left me what was left of his rum as a little gift. I never saw the dude again. I’ll never forget that trip.
