"The year is 2008, and the green rush is taking root in Humboldt County, California. Born and raised in this "Emerald Triangle" famous for perfect cannabis-growing conditions, Ty Kearns wants no part of it. He has seen too many people lose or derail their lives for the green dream, always feeling the itch for more cash and power. But as a college student with few options amid a recession, Ty is willing to try almost anything. After his eccentric uncle introduces him to some local growers, Ty finds himself living a double life, spending his days in college lecture halls and his nights on his secret farm five hours north. Soon, he is more successful than he could have imagined - more successfull than just about any grower on the mountain. But he faces natural disasters, animal encounters, the gossip mill, the authorities, the highs and lows of first love, and a crowd of "trimmigrants" and pot-star groupies as he grapples with the damage that growing does to the land and his mental health. Today, Ty is CEO of Seven Leaves, a fully licensed, sustainable cannabis-cultivation operation. But to find his calling he had to step out of the shadow of the mountain. A coming-of-age memoir stranger than fiction, Five Hours North tells the story of the prelegalization weed scene, when the characters were larger than life and the growers were always one step from disaster."--
