by RYAN JAMES is a great way to enjoy the world that we live in. As travel becomes ever cheaper, we’re finding reasons other than vacation to rack up those frequent flier miles. Work, music, food, and sporting events have people exploring more of our world than ever before. While most of the travel logistics have gotten easier, the traveling pothead has a serious issue that most travelers don’t have to deal with… marijuana is illegal nearly everywhere in the country, and can be difficult to secure once you have reached your destination. Likewise, I most certainly recommend that you do not attempt to access a TSA security checkpoint with anything illegal. The solution? Travel to destinations where your meds can come to you. Simply traveling to a place where marijuana use is tolerated, isn’t always the best way to choose a travel destination. Unless you’ve found a killer heli-ski resort, burning one in Alaska isn’t

going to be at the top of most travel lists. However, Outdoor Music Festivals and Alternative Culture Events are the perfect targets. This article will feature some of the richest pot culture events to act as higher destinations within travel destinations. Music events are prime pot spots. They happen all year, all over the country. This is a great way for the business tripper to acquire some well needed product. There are a number of well known, well traveled jam bands that regularly tour nationally. These tours are virtual underground highways for product distribution. Bands like Jimmy Buffett, Dave Matthews Band The Allman Brothers, G-Love, George Clinton, and on-again/offagain Phish are often followed by hoards of grass smoking, road traveled hippies. Outdoor music festivals take the music event to the next level.
