Appalachian Trail Documentary: I Wont‘ Be Back In Two Weeks | 2022 Thru Hike

#hiking #thruhiking #appalachiantrail
I hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2022. Instead of having to watch all of my 143 video logs, I decided to make them into a movie. (You are welcome to check out the vlogs though)
Thank you for watching.

    OK… Now that I’m finished crying… I wanted you to know that I faithfully watched you every morning. I would wake up and sit out in the sunshine and watch your videos, along with the heard, hiker, a.k.a. no.2 pencil and pink, hot dog and mushroom And hawk. That is how I spent my entire summer and fall… Every morning watching you guys fulfill this dream. I am thrilled that you created this documentary. It is so beautiful in so many ways. Thank you for being one of the people that inspired me to get my butt on trail. I will be unable to complete an uninterrupted thru hike because of work responsibilities, however, I did go to Springer Mountain and hike through the entire state of Georgia. I just came off trail and my brain and heart are still there! ❤ At my age in my condition with my lifestyle that is a miracle. And you are one of the people that inspired me to do it. I cried, cursed, laughed and loved every minute of Georgia. I had a concerning interaction on trail with another hiker and my knees were screaming so I came back to New Jersey where I am resting up and preparing for my next long ass section hike. So it looks like I’ll be completing my 2200 as a LASHER! I kind of feel like I want to watch your documentary a second time tonight, because it is just so beautifully done. You did it! I know you don’t even know me, but I am so proud of you! PCT!!!!!PCT!!!!PCT……..!!!!!!❤

    Juliane it’s hard not to become emotionally involved after following your hike and now watching it all laid out so beautifully. It was hard for me to hear you say, you felt dead inside. Immediately a verse from Psalm 30 came into my mind. “Thou has turned my mourning into dancing.”

    Hi hikerdancer, my name is Lou and I just finished watching your doc on your thru hike in its entirety. I to am a thru hiker class of 2022 trail name Cowboy&penguin. 1st.) I want to commend you for doing a fabulous job editing your thru hike it captivated me from the start. 2nd.) From the bottom of my heart thank you for taking me back home down memory lane. Seems like you stopped and took in most of the views I did on my thru hike. 3rd.) Congratulations on staying strong and persevering through all of it the good the bad and the ugly. 4th) You are now officially part of something greater than you know or realize you will forever be etched as one of the greats that accomplished this crazy once in a lifetime dream. 5th.) finally something you said struck a cord with me you said, that you felt like you were dead on the inside. I to felt that way before and during my hike it took me months to try and heal and come to grips with my life and know like you expressed and made another comment that was also true. You will never be the same person again you will see things differently but know that you do now have another family that connects with you and cares about you. Well alright then I’ve blabbed enough listen again thanks for the rerun of my thru hike enjoy be seeing you.

    I watched perhaps half of your daily AT vlogs. I didn’t think I will watch this documentary (who has time and patience for over 2 hours of DIY video?), but yesterday I clicked on it - and watched the whole thing. It is excellent - it is a document, yet very entertaining, dynamic and most of all very personal. Really well done! It is clear you are investing a lot of work in your channel, you have become one of my top 5 outdoor youtubers. Btw., for several years my wife and myself were attending dance classes and I *know* I will never be a dancer 😊. Greetings from Czechia, your European neighbour :).

    Thank you for such a great perspective of the Appalachian Trail. You did such fine work showing so much of the highlights of t is wonderful wilderness mountain trail. I'm 69 years old and always wanted to hike the AT, yet I'm now in a wheelchair, and must rely on nice people like you to show me how nice it is. I watched a mom and her four boys that went by the trail name; The Field Trip, who hiked the trail in 2021, which was such a rainy year that a major part of the scenery was just not visible to really enjoy. I also watched the Crawford family, Fight for Together, that completed the trail in 2018, with 6 kids, carrying a two year old the whole way. Plus their youngest daughter Filia, at age 7, who now holds the enviable title as being the youngest female AT through hiker. Congratulations on finishing the Appalachian trail, and I hope you got out of it, as much of what you were looking for. The AT is truly a very spiritual journey. If you have that big of fear of heights, the PCT, Pacific Coast Trail might not be for you. You may want to watch The Field Trip family of the mom, and her four boys who just finished the PCT in 2022.The PCT is a spectacular, and challenging trail way beyond the AT, just watch some of their PCT videos to see what I'm talking about please.

My mom is wanting one so she can enjoy the outdoors but doesn’t have much strength I her right arm. I’m looking at them & would love any input. Btw, I have started a channel ‘cause I was gonna try 2024 thru hike but it’s gonna be several long hikes to prepare better. Looking at Feb of 2025.

(All your southern PA footage was so familiar! Even the guy with the 2.9 second pitbull sign!) I am glad to hear you have your passion back, and I appreciate you sharing your journey! I started following you esrly in 2022 but then lost ya. While I was sick with bronchitis last fall, I rediscoverd your channel and Groceries' and Katy's also (hey, I'm a geocacher too!).

    This was beautiful. Not just the scenery, which certainly was, but your editing really did highlight your journey; both the physical and emotional. I watched every episode you posted as you hiked and every episode of the before the hike prep. This movie you put together was an awesome story of what the journey was, both physically and emotionally! (And you keep a pretty tight rein on those emotions.) I have to mention the sound track. I’ll preface this by mentioning that you had once experimented with adding music to your videos and asked your viewers for their thoughts. At that time, I was one of the nay sayers. I felt it was a distraction and the volume was too loud. BUT, (and, yes that’s a big but😂, the sound track in this movie……you nailed it‼️in my opinion, it enhanced the production. So, thank you so much for this! Can’t wait for the PCT, or whatever comes next.

    Looks like an amazing adventure!! Good for you! I hope you go on to have even more big adventures. I think you can avoid post-trail depression by immediately planning your next adventure. I'm dreaming about my own big adventure here in South Australia with my partner, however being 49 and having major neck problems I'm considering the use of a hand-held hike trailer to take the weight off my spine and shoulders. Have you seen anyone use these or had any experience with them? I realise there would be limitations but we'd be happy to stick to moderate trails. I think I could pull even more weight than I could carry on a backpack. I can't wait to get out there!

    Congratulations on completing your trip, I enjoyed watching your documentary, looked like you and your hiking family had alot of fun along g the way which I assume It must have made the hard days a little easier to make it through the hard days. I'm planning to make my trip in 2024, j hope I can hook up with a group to help encourage one another.

    I finally had the time to watch this. You did a great job putting this whole video together! I really enjoyed it. It made me so nostaglic for the trail. it also made me smile with found memories. A bonus for me was at about 5 minutes into the video you walk by my car at blood mountain cabins lol. I was there doing trail magic for two friends that were thru hiking as well. I did hiker speghetti nights at that cabin (mountain lion) for two or three nights. I saw so many hikers show up for a plate. Did you make it over or even know we were cooking? It would be funny if i got to feed you and had no idea haha.
