Taylor, darling, you do not need to explain yourself to anyone! Hike your hike! Do, watch, eat what you want. As a JP, it was lovely to see the wedding. Thank you for bringing us along on your journey! Be safe, be well, be happy!
Teeny tiny scrubber 😍

Itty bitty!!
I think watching Survivor is quite appropriate while you’re out hiking day after day! Enjoy! It’s you’re hike!
This was a particularly lucky day--dogs, wedding, husband, pot cleaner. No need to answer the critics, it probably just encourages them.
Outstanding!!! Watch all of the TV you wish too!!!😊❤👍
Hey Taylor, you are an incredible and very positive hiker; very inspirational. Unfortunately, there will always be “naysayers” that will question your decisions on trail, whether it’s what you eat, what and when you watch TV, or for that matter many other decisions thru hikers make. Keep doing what you do and have fun. Thanks for taking us along on your second AT thru hike.

Good for you, do what you want to do. People need to mind their business.
Oh my goodness! I cannot believe that someone has the nerve to judge someone else about what they eat or if they watch something on TV! That is just the most ridiculous thing! Some people need to mind their own business. Taylor, you are a sweetheart, and I am enjoying your videos and all of the beautiful things you’re showing! You be you. Hike, your own hike, and all of those other sayings that everybody says, ha ha! Enjoy your snickers, your gushers and survivor and happy hiking!💗💗💗💗
I think since this is your SECOND through hike, you can certainly do whatever you wish without anyone trying to tell you different. You’ve already proven you are capable of the complete hike. I say enjoy it all the way to Katahdin. Oh and thanks for the nod to Dixie😉
Oh my gosh, I cannot believe someone made you feel like you have to explain yourself. You don't owe anyone any explanations for what you watch, eat, or do. Do YOUR thing, and thank you for your videos! I look forward to them every morning. Keep on crushing it!
I can't believe that people whine about what they think you should eat or do on trail. You take an incredible amount of time and effort to do your VLOG and I appreciate it! I'm watching while on my rowing machine. Thanks for keeping me company!
Hi Taylor: your videos have been incredible this year! This working section hiker really appreciates how detailed and long these daily blogs have been this thru hike! Also: I am so proud of you and so mad at the couch trolls. So glad you’ll have these videos to look back on at different stages of your life!
Max Patch was originally cleared in the early 19th century by farmers seeking to use the area as pasture for cattle and sheep. It was wooded before the arrival of the settlers.
Girl, I streamed survivor WHILE HIKING on my thru last year!! hahaha, you do you. Also, I stayed in the same room at Discerning hiker and I was alone and he was so fricken cute. Just drove me everywhere, made amazing meals, and was so happy to take care of hikers. I'm so glad to hear he's doing it again this year. Good luck out there, I'm so glad I get to watch you out there again. I miss it every day
You are perfect. enjoy yourself, let the couch warmers exercise their way of living their lives, what ever that is.
As long as you're not bingeing Kyle Hates Hiking you can watch whatever you want. Love the pot cleaner!
Hey Taylor! Watching this on the way up to Cabot, perfect road walk accompaniment. As for watching shows on trail? Come on people, hike your own damn hike. (Jumps off soap box) I always love seeing that radio tower, so unique. Huge thanks to the angels for the magic, you are all amazing! Max patch is always a stunner! Windy AF! I want to say thank you for pressing the point that this is your hike. We are so fortunate to get to share in your adventure, I hope that the followers that feel the need to try and turn your hike into their hike learn that quickly. (Ok now I’m off the soap box) 🙏 Thanks for bringing us along today. I hope tomorrow’s miles are kind. Keep truckin’ and be well. -Grateful

Hey, good morning! Hope you've been well. I concur. I know people want to live vicariously through Taylor. However, people need to enjoy the ride. Always enjoy your comments. Cheers!

@S. M. 🙏 you’re too kind. All the praise should go to these amazing creators and the inspiring content the gift to us. We are a lucky community…
My Mama makes those scrubbies! They work great! Eat the food you like and what fuels you best and annoying people should keep negative comments to themselves!!! Have fun Taylor❤
Enjoying your 2023 thru-hike and good blurb at the end. I like how you stress that everyone hikes differently and for their own reasons.
I also love to watch TV shows in my tent! Also while I'm cooking/eating breakfast and dinner.... I love backpacking to get away from it all, but for me that mostly means getting away from other people so I'd much rather put in my headphones and watch a TV show at camp rather than talk to the other campers. I'm sharing this to agree with you that there are sooo many variations of why people hike, but also to add that even when people share a "why", their implementation may vary. You keep doing you and I hope you feel the support you deserve for your hike.
You do you. There are way to many people who think their way is the only way. Individuality is what makes us interesting and fun. Loving your hike.
Your not the only one who watchs shows or movies while hiking
Taylor, don’t give the trolls a single thought, people can be so rude and critical! Do your thing, your way, and have fun. We’ve watched your vlogs for years, enjoy them all. We appreciate the chance to follow you along on your adventure, just keep on keeping on! ❤🥰
You hike your own hike, girl!! Don’t worry!! I love the way you vlog!!! Thanks for taking all of us along!!!
I think it's absurd that anyone should tell another person how to spend their time, period. I hope you continue to enjoy your hike! :)
I always watched TV in my tent when there was a signal and I had power to spare. Such a treat! Also, Boston Rob is the greatest SURVIVOR! 😊
Who are the snobs who are saying you can't watch Survivor or do whatever you want on your trip? The heck with them! You do what you want to do! You are not living your life the way they want. You do you! And there's no better time spent than watching Survivor! :)
Cutest scrubbie ever! That boy has a sweet momma. And you ignore the judgy judgsters. Sheesh. My aunt takes notes on Survivor. She has them for every season ever. On legal pads😊 UBU
Trolls will be trolls. It amazes me how there's always someone who will complain! It's nobody's business if someone else watches TV in their tent. Lordy, some people! Taylor, I totally get it that you are hiking for your own reasons and you want it to be fun. You watch TV in your tent. I'll probably bring paper and pen, keep the flashlight on, and write in my tent. Those things are OUR decisions, and nobody else's. Keep up the wonderful hike that you are hiking! Do it YOUR way. I love your videos!
Taylor, love your videos…you do you…don’t worry about others…keep up the great hikes and videos! I truly look forward to them! Thank you!
I can’t believe people are so judgmental. Who cares what you watch or what you eat. I enjoy your videos!
My wife makes pot scrubbers like that too. Its really handy for in the house, and to keep the hiking pots gink-free for next use. Plus, its amazing how much stuff sticks to non-stick surfaces...
Why are people so judgmental? I think your honesty and real videos are great! Thanks for sharing!
that scrubber is badass
Having innocent fun makes life much better. I'm older than you. I wish I had let myself have more fun when I was your age. I'm having fun now. Happy Trails! 🚶♀️👍🏻🙂

@@KeepTheGates I've known several people that worked extra hard and lived in garages, etc to save up money for thru hikes and other trips. No one knows what others go through to make things possible and it's really not our business. I just wish them well. I'm afraid you are acting like party pooper. I hope you work out whatever is ailing you. Please don't post on my comments anymore. I wish you good health and peace.

@S. M. Someone doesn't like hearing the truth. Lol
I enjoy watching your journey and agree that every person has a different reason to be on trail. Keep doing your thing! Best travels!
I'm new to your channel, not much of a hiker, but enjoy the videos. Especially the Smokey Mountains, beautiful. I'm sure I'm the opposite of others, but the thing I enjoy most about your videos, is that you DO eat a Snickers, or French Toast, or head to McDonald's. Love that! Hike on....
Enjoy Survivor and hike the way you want to hike!
I'm so sorry people keep judging your food! I hope you can eat whatever you whenever you want with no guilt! Food freedom ❤
Outstanding!
You go girl! You do you!
Great job, cinematically and story telling top notch. Your pace is impressive too. Smart to keep fueling up 👍
Super! Have fun on the trails in full capacity 😊
Keep on hiking your hike! I appreciate you sharing your journey!
I am really enjoying your journey. I can't wait to see more!
another great video thanks for taking us along again!!
Really enjoying following your hike - thank you very much for sharing it with us!
You do you ,Taylor and have fun!
You do you!!! I like the way you do you 😊
I’m really enjoying your journey and thank you for sharing.❤
Glad you made 20+ miles. Thank you.
Much respect Taylor, great ending.
You do you. Glad you don't worry about what others do or say. Stay true to yourself 👍🙂🙏
You go, girl! HYOH. Nothing but support for you. ❤
Rain pants as a sit pad, an excellent tip. Who are these people that have the gall to try and tell someone what they should and should not be doing when hiking? (rhetorical) Do what makes you feel happy and safe.
You do you Taylor! Love these vlogs, thanks for sharing.
Enjoy your Survivor, Taylor. Good job on the trail!
You do what you want to do Taylor. Keep up the great job you are doing.
Love to watch your videos and follow your journey. Greetings from an alpine hiker in Bavaria😊
Another great video, thank you so much for sharing your amazing journey. 🤩
Hey I love your videos, and hearing I can watch some Survivor on trail just makes me more fired up about getting out there! Thanks for the inspiration
Taylor--enjoy your videos and appreciate your honesty. Inspiring me to tackle the AT in the future! You're rocking it!
Really enjoying following your journey and please carry on doing whatever it is that makes you happy when you're on trail (food, TV, hostels etc). You're there to enjoy it, not to needlessly suffer freezing temperatures. The places you have stayed in look really great and I'm sure it's very useful information for fellow hikers.
Enjoy your hike however you choose. I am enjoying your videos.
It amazes me that someone would comment about you watching Survivor. The “judgyness” is unbelievable! It saddens me that their comment wasn’t just shrugged off for the pettiness that it was. You are killing it out there and should consider watching old episodes each night! Rock on Garth!
I admire you for making choices that work for YOU. Like the way you just take things in their stride.
You're hiking your hike. Good for you. Stay well. Walk on.
Good for you Taylor ! You share these videos with us because you want to and if anyone doesn’t like the content they sure don’t have to watch. It’s your hike and you enjoy! Great videos 😊
Good job over 20 miles , good video with lots of good views, so let's keep on hiking. 😊
Oh goodness, you do you and forget the crazy comments. Enjoy Survivor!! You are doing amazing, and I love your videos. Thanks for sharing your adventure. 😊
Thanks for another fantastic video. Enjoyed watching it after day 2 of a sort of shakedown 50 mile 4 day hike in Western Australia. Staying at lovely accommodations every night after pushing ourselves hard in the day. Makes sense to me.
You do you, it's your hike. Have fun and enjoy. Thanks for the videos you make for us. Stay well and be safe.

Good afternoon David David!
Good girl for doing you!
You do you! People can be so judgemental. Rock on!
Love your videos. Hike your own hike. Thanks for taking us along the
It’s your hike and nobody else’s so you do you. Happy trails.🤟🏻🥾🏔
Do not worry about what others post!!! I would do whatever I liked when resting! Love ya…here in NH❤
I agree totally! Camped at Carter gap shelter last night and watch Seinfeld in the tent until 930. Nothing wrong with some me time!
Love how you put it: we all Hike for different reasons. You do you Taylor :)
Your hike is your hike. You do what you want.
Windy hike for you today. Still heading North and hiking your hike. Stay safe and HIKE ON!!!
I'm so happy to be able to watch you thru hike the at again! I love to watch your videos first thing when I wake up. You are doing it right! Hike the miles you want, sleep in town or watch TV in your tent, eat your snickers bars! ❤ Love you girl keep up the great content!
Thank you for sharing your journey with us and for all the time and effort that you put into making your videos! I look forward to watching them every day. And if someone wants to give you a hard time about relaxing a few minutes and watching a tv show I say tell them to take a hike!
Wow‼️That wind was howling up at Max Patch...I just love that place...the views are incredible! Great day of hiking ..great vlog.....Glad you can have a little normalcy while you are doing your hike...it is your hike😎
Hi, Taylor... good to see you on the trail again. Enjoy your hike and stay safe. - Dr Dave Menke, Tucson.
Yea, I can see how watching survivor could give you an encouraging challenge boost !
I met Maw Maw a couple years ago when she was kayaking in her 80s. An inspiration .
Girl, if you want to watch your show, do it! People have entirely too many opinions nowadays while on their couches and phones. Love watching your hike, it's a highlight of my morning coffee!!!!!
Love that you are taking us along… I can’t believe anyone would say anything about what you “should” and “shouldn’t” do…. Crazy
Having service at camp to watch something before bed was always a nice luxury. I would watch the Red Sox last year when I had service and enough battery to spare 👍🏻
Keep doing what you're doing really enjoying 🖖
I grew up watching Survivor with my grandparents. Although they are passed, it brings back a lot of memories. We used to sit at our own TVs and talk back-and-forth about the social happenings of the game.
It’s your hike, do what you choose to do. You’re doing the work, you choose how you wind down. Keep charging !😊
Wow. You do you. Watch TV, whatever. I am having so much fun and learning a lot watching your videos. I can’t imagine commenting on what you eat, what you watch, where you stay. I am glad you are letting us come along for the ride! You go!
I do a lot of camping and in our camper we have 2 TVs . When we tent camp in the deep woods I down load movies on my phone and PC for us to watch at night. Hike your way and enjoy every minute of it. Happy Hiking 🏕🥾💞📺
It is refreshing to watch your approach to the AT. Some folks are busy trying to out run their demons, or do some sort of endurance march with only cold soaked meals every day. You indeed look like you are having fun, eating good meals on a regular basis and doing what you enjoy. I'm enjoying the trail with you. Thanks for the videos.
i really enjoy your color scheme 🧡💜💚! it has been my favorite color combination during the last three years and it makes me happy. the new cute little scrubby fits in perfectly!
Whoo-hoo! Hey, this was a great video. Really enjoyed the info on the hostel. HYOH...do what you want to do and enjoy the journey. Everyone can HTOH when they get on the trail. You do you and what ever makes you happy. Cheers! 🎉
Hello Taylor. Just enjoy your time and do what you wish! I know you already know this but people are always gonna say something to be annoying but it is what is! I do hamradio on my hikes and I enjoy it very much, and people look at me sometimes like I'm weird but I don't care! I really enjoy your videos and keep up the good work! Good luck on your through hike and be safe! John😊
Taylor - I’m a section hiker this year and it’s been so inspiring to watch your journey on the AT! Hike your own hike, have fun and maybe I’ll see you in Maine!!!
I am in the process of watching your old videos from 2021. On day 1 of the 2021 thru hike, you wrote your name in the van of Fresh Grounds after getting trail magic. The sticker right above that said, Discerning Hiker. What a coincidence!
