Meet Mick Dodge | The Legend of Mick Dodge

ah not a better bedroom in the world
it has two entrances back door front
door
yeah wake up in the morning have
breakfast tastes like chicken
everything tastes like chicken out here
except chicken try one like the early
explorers and pioneers of the Pacific
Northwest Mick lives primarily off the
land he sleeps and tree stumps like this
one but he didn’t always leave this kind
of life owned a couple of houses and
cars and all that kind of life and one
day I just grabbed my gear and just
walked on back here in the mountains I
never considered going back home there
was this excitement in this adventure I
found by stepping out of the modern
world when Nick left that world behind
the first thing he did was kick off his
shoes one of the first things that
happens when you step out of shoes your
senses come more online we’ve got over
200 thousand nerves in the feet that
catches your attention your eyes go to
the ground you’re really watching and
you see more of the land out here your
feet begin to fit in to so many
different kinds of textures tattoos of
roots adorn his feet marking the
connection he feels to the path he walks
my feet became my mouth my feet became
my compass so I took off of my barefoot
journey
