If Im not tripping really hard I get real distracted by the cold weather but I'm a self admitted pussy about cold weather. I know the cold brings me down when I'm rolling for sure, like in the middle of the winter when ya gotta get from venue to car, I always bum out so bad about it.

If it's your first time, I don't see how it could make a difference. Once you get into the 300 ug range at least....
Tripping in the sweltering heat.
It was a fuckin scorcher yesterday in Wisconsin. A couple of my friends from out of town who had never taken LSD were coming to visit me, and I was very excited to give them their glimpse into reality. We dropped, and then like an hour later we went outside to come up. About 3-4 hours later I felt the weirdest feeling...like I was trying to come up, but it was so hot out I wouldn't trip. We just sat and cooked, I tried so hard to focus on anything besides how hot it was outside but it was impossible
We ended up taking another hit later that night when it cooled down about 40 degrees and had an amazing trip. They were satisfied.
The first trip was just the weirdest thing though. Has anyone else had troubles tripping in sweltering heat?

I had my first acid trip in 47 degree celcius (116F) heat a few years ago. If anything I think it made us all trip harder. I have fond memories of being huddled under a tree in the shade watching the heat radiate off the ground like a mirage.
It may have just been weak acid and you needed that second hit to really feel it

Welcome to BL, its nice to see some cheese heads on here. Sconnie pride, represent.
I lived in Tucson, AZ for a summer. It was over 100 pretty much every day, topping out at over 120. It was definitely better to trip at night after it cooled out a bit. A lot of the time the heat is just too distracting. I find it difficult to trip on relatively low doses if I am not comfortable - hot or cold. Was it your first time? You may have not been aware of what to expect. Day tripping is just different from night tripping as well. I tend to be more aware of visuals in the dark. My suggestion is to either increase your dosage or trip only at night.

My first daytime trip, many many years ago was a scorcher, I took quite a few gel tabs my friend was selling at the time. I was so fucked up, for a few hours I could do nothing but sit leaning against the wall of a friendly corner store. I watched the world continue around me like someone hit the fast forward button. Needless to say the next day I looked like a lobster. Damn my fair skin.

the low here was 72 last night high today is 97. I wish I lived in the north...not really
The highest temperature I've done LSD in was around 40 degrees C, in quite a dry climate. It seemed to intensify the trip if anything but I found that if I pay attention to water intake its no problem at all. Heat makes me a bit drowsy and the LSD fixed that but wasn't as stimulating as I'd normally find LSD to be, so overal it made the trip a bit more relaxed.
If you pay attention to your body, find enough shadow and drink plenty of water I don't see why heat would be a problem when tripping.

In retrospect I think the heat was just too distracting. I can remember sitting under a tree and seeing the heat like it was a marriage.
I had a very very good trip last week off just one hit of this lucy. Layed on the couch for 8 hours with nothing but a lava lamp, record player and a mixture of Beatles and Simon and Garfunkel records.
Thanks for all of the welcomes and responses!

heat is LSD killer,even when it enter your body,your body is hot in hot day too.The organs that are deep arent much altered but everything close to skin is very hot in hot day,if blood with lsd comes to these parts then I bet the lsd will be destroyed faster

what?! why would it not be problem? I dont know what lsd makes to you but in my eyes it makes the night into day,and day into supernova
what I want to say that saucer pupils + intense sun = dunno about you but for me not nice
On the contrary, one of my first hardest trips ended up being in the freezing cold rain. The whole time I thought my skin was melting off from the rain. For me, the cold makes me trip harder, but the heat just makes it more uncomfortable.

a tid-bit i remember hearing......
i believe it was ram dass who gave LSD to the yogi in india (though there is debate about whether or not he ate it)....anyways, supposedly, after the experience he said something along the lines of how the yogis in the valley used to eat certain plants which made them go crazy, but it was no longer of use to the modern yogis.....and also, pertaining to the subject, he said that it is okay to take this chemical, though it should never be taken in the extreme heat.
i'm not saying this is the law of the land, but that remark has echoed through my head on a few trips. i kind of like th heat tripping, but i can feel a certain overheating potential which isn't the most comfortable.

as has already been stated, tripping in general makes the body dehydrated, so tripping in extreme heat is only advisable if plenty of water and electrolytes are available to replenish the phsyical body.
that said, i'm a true seattle-ite and my first trip was shrooms on a cool autumn night so I don't really mind the cold or wet while under the influence.
2c-x on a hot (well, for WA that is... 100F is probably nothing at all for you desert guys) summer day is a totally different, but equally rewarding experience. Of course that's the Cascade mountains summer heat, with plenty of shady trees around. I think I would like to experience 'mescaline in the desert' someday, the stark toughness of the natural lack of water to be an enormous contrast to the lush coastal life i'm used to
