Most people at Coachella are doing everything they can to stay cool.

Travis Morgan is wearing a hood that makes him look like a husky dog.

Isn’t that hot?

“It’s pretty hot,” said Morgan, a 22-year-old student at Cal State Fullerton, as he wiped sweat and sunscreen out of his eyes near the back of the Sahara tent.

But the story behind his getup is pretty cool. He bought it from a company called Spirit Hoods, which gives 10 percent of net profits to help endangered animals. Each hood represents the spirit of the animal is represents. Morgan’s husky represented adventure, bravery and loyalty.

It is the second time Morgan has been to Coachella. Midway through the first day, he was having a great time.

“Breathtaking. Words can’t even describe it.”
