This was my second year attending Shambhala and every year gets better and better.
In particular, this time 'round was especially enjoyable as I camped with the rest of the Hotbox editorial staff (Unfortunately excluding CA Editor Xander Harding, who was stuck in Calgary due to work) and knew twice as many people as I did last year. We ran a tight ship up in Camp Hotbox and talked to many of you while there; thanks to everyone who dropped by!
The weekend started out with myself, two friends and Lifestyle Editor Janus Jones (Who disappeared into the woods shortly upon arrival to do god-only-knows-what) heading south from Calgary in my trusty VW Golf, packed to the brim with camping gear. A short six hours and several mashup albums later, we arrived at the entrance to Shambhala and began our way over the rocky trail into the farm. Luckily, there was only a tiny line at the entrance to the site, and after a quick vehicle check, we rolled into the biggest party of the summer.
