First of all, congratulations on making it to Katahdin!!! What a life-changing experience that hike had to have been.
Second–awesome job on the video. It’s one of the best I’ve seen about hiking the AT. I really enjoyed the shots of the privies and shelters. Very well done! Kudos!

if you hear a banjo-RUN!!

go light… if your birthday is soon, dont let coming march/spring weather fool you — pack warm gear, its cold in them-thar-hills. if its summer, check the water reports from mountaincrossings(dot)com. carry a lil bit of duct tape to patch over hot spots on your feet as soon as you feel them — BEFORE they become blisters! umm.. leave no trace…
so many things could be said… i guess the most important is HAVE FUN!

great video, terrible music

good pictures..was that a black bear peaking around the tree?

not a bad video, but the shots move too fast sometimes, you can’t even see what it is and it’s gone.

hit post too soon, meant to say:
some great pictures in there, took me back to my own thru. It’s neat to see some of the same places through someone else’s perspective. For example, it’s nice to see the view at McAfee, which was in a cloud when I was there.
and personally I think the song works well with the theme of the video/adventure.

Dude! That was an awesome video. I want to do a thru hike someday. The scenery is amazing! Thank you for sharing!

If this video doesn’t inspire you, nothing will!
Watch for me on the AT after I finish the GR5/E2 in Europe and biking across the U.S.
I know I can make it. Just have to convince my husband that he needs to accompany me.

Planning a late July start on my AT dream hike- Southbound Maine to Georgia… thanx for the inspiration, bit daunting getting all the info and logistics sorted out from here in Australia… this hike has been bugging me for so long, I have finally commited and find myself trawling the internet for morsels of info!
