Cheers for the update. Keep it up, Chase. I'm really excited to see what you cobble together after the trip. Looks amazing so far.

It's so nice to sit hear listening to you Chase! thanks for the update!

Thanks for the update! Enjoy the rest of the trail. Looks great. Definitely more intense than we have faced on some of our recent trips!

Thanks for the update! ...what I enjoyed most: seeing the fun and excitement in your eyes and your face during the entire video! Enjoy the rest to the most!

Love the update! Planning on doing the HRP next summer. Thanks for helping me dial in the gear and training as always!

Enjoy the rest of the trip! Hopefully the weather gets better. Looking forward to the rest of the videos from this trip!

You’re making incredible progress Chase! Great to see you on trail, and thank you for the gear updates. If you were still out there, enjoy the last stretch! If you’re done, congratulations! Well done.

Looks beautiful. More route footage please!

Thanks for the update Chase. Enjoy the rest of the trail

Great update! All the best. Enjoy the rest of the trip!

Great update, thanks for sharing. Keen to hear how you find the next leg of your hike with your altered nutrition plan.

Thanks for the update Chase, it was great meeting you on trail, near Refuge de Larribet. Looking forward to some more trail footage.

Looking forward to the trip videos! I incorporated your hiker daily movement routine into my training for a multi-day hike I did last month. It was the most strenuous trip I've ever done, and I managed to completely avoid any foot pain, which has plagued me in the past. I attribute a lot of that to your routine! Thanks and good luck on the rest of the trail.

I just started Hiking last year and have caught the hiking bug and so your videos have been great to learn a lot in bite sized videos with my morning coffee :) Thanks, and keep enjoying the journey!

You always do your best, at your own optimal comfortable speed. I would definitely slow down relax enjoy it and I’ll bet your progress is at least as good if not better. I just did a exciting ascent in the rain and the cinematic results were the best I’ve ever had! I hope you’ll watch it when it comes out!!!

Lovely to hear about your adventures, thank you! Kareem is a splendid chap loaning you all that gear and I'm especially interested in your new diet. I do worry when folk are out hiking or biking living on sugar jelly worms or such like, it isn't proper food now is it. Take care and we'll look forward to your next news.

Very insightful video. Enjoy the rest of your trip.

Hey Buddy, having done the gr11 this year i know what it feels like being in a thunderstorm and also being “unnecessarily” hanging around ;D you said it yourself, don’t make any arbitrary couch goals the reason to judge your performance. Enjoy yourself! I have been and still am learning a lot from you! So thank you, be safe, enjoy yourself! Hope to see you soon’

Glad you are doing well! Keep on keeping on!

Thanks for posting the videos. This has gotten me super pumped about getting back into camping and backpacking. I liked what you said about junk food. It’s easy to use junk food to push calories. Finish strong!

Love your videos, thanks so much!

That down hill running on loose rocks...oh dear Looking forward to your next video, take care!

Subscribed... I like your style bro. And the Pyrenees is where my spirit animal lives for sure! Looking forward to moving to the NZ South Island in a few years (i've been living on the NI since 2004) and getting back into time in the mountains. Thanks for the videos.

Yes, looking forward to see the plantar fasciitis video.

Good to see your gear is being tested in all weather conditions 👍 I eventually moved up to the Suunto9 to navigate and track at the same time, worth a look.

thanks for the update and good luck!! :D

Good luck for the rest of the trip Chase.

progress anxiety...feeling flat...Chase you're physically as strong as an ox but don't forget to look after your mental health on the trail! Thx for sharing take care

Good plan to avoid hiking in rain :) thanks for the update!

Food is my favourite topic.. i never know how much to take with me and I tend to take too much. Thanks for the update :)

Thanks for the update!

Nicely done

Loved this casual style, and good news all around! Fantastic I've been using a Garmin smartwatch for the last year, tracks all the standard metrics. I've liked it overall. Definitively not life changing, but it has been a massive save on my phone battery life. A full charge on the watch will last 3-7 DAYS... hard for a modern phone to compete with them small screens

Hey! Good to see a new video.

I was waiting for you to say that Kareem gave you his watch lol. I just finished up the most technical hike I've ever done along the highest mountain ridge in the eastern U.S. My ankles would not have made it without your videos! Almost rolled them 3 times, but quickly reacted and they bounced right back due to all the training I've done.

If I asked he would have given it to me 😂

Yes you should get a coros watch, they are great. I have a Coros Apex 46 and I love it for every activity I do, from running to hiking to mountainbiking to road cycling it's great.

New big fan from Toronto Canada cheers

Epic mate, great info

good to see you and hear from you again Chase, I use Coros, it's a fantastic watch, you can actually also upload your trail to the watch and follow it, it does keep you on the trail perfectly but not give you the overview like you have in the app on the phone, but saves the phone battery seriously; my coros lasts for up to four hiking days on average. last year I switch my 40gr exped inflatable pillow(supossed to be the lightest in the world) to Sea to summit Aeros Down Pillow Regular, it's 70gr but it's sooo worthy, the little bit of down make such a difference, so much nicer and my sleep so much better. sending good thoughts your way, enjoy the trail :)

BTW, liteway make custom packs, after using the same like yours, elementum for a year, I also have some improvements in mind, but one thing I made myself is the stow-on-the-go system like all the osprey have, it works great for me, very practical, when I want to put away my poles because I look at the maps, or take photos or eat snack or just don't need the poles at given moment, no stopping and wasting time

Love your food videos. Wouldn’t mind seeing more healthy ultralight food videos

Thank you

Great Video... Loved it. I had progress concerns on the Bibbulmun until it ended and then I had regret it ended so quickly. hmmm

In one your previous vids, you briefly talked about foam roller. Would you recommend any routine for post-hike with these rollers? Many thanks for your whole channel content 🙏🏻

bravo et continuez !!!!

Hi new follower here thanks for the tips and idea with the gears watching from California 👍🏼🙏🏃

Great update! Super interesting comment on the food quality, I also struggle to eat more calories when I cut sugars and eat just whole foods… please do let us know what you find out!

I use mixed nut butters to bump up my calorie intake.

Try getting the pack in Challenge EPL Ultra200 - way more durable than XPac whilst weighing less, completely waterproof and the seams can easily be taped. Also made from environmental friendly materials.

will you be doing a video of your HRP2021 hike the same as u did for your GR11 ?

Almost there! How’s the jacket, keeping you dry?

Happy to hear your hike is going well. Hope the weather gives you a bit of a break going forward! Can anyone share the brand name of the durable sunglasses? Thanks!

@@ChaseMountains It took me 26day, one Day after camping in Anerto i had serious problems with my gastrointestinal, so i made a zero day in a Hostel. From start to finish, i spend 500€, but its possible to spend even less.

Enjoy! :-)

really waiting for fasciitis video. i have never had this problem, but week ago i started my 7 days hike.for the first time i used my altra's (Timp 2) i really loved them because of cushioning ant wide front. but maaan my feet hurt so much i couldnt even walk anymore after 2 days. i thought it may be because of the shoes, so i got my old ones sent to me ( simple hiking boots with ankle suport and no the zero drop ones) and never felt the same pain. got some blisters because they are narrow, but you cant compare the pain of fasciitis

Love your videos mate. What off line gps app do you recommend for this hike?

Love my vallons too! Enjoy your last 10 days :)

I'm sitting here in New Zealand watching this during our current lockdown... 🙄 🤦🏻‍♀️ 🤷🏻‍♀️ 🤔 😅 While I am planning my next multi day tramp for when we get back to level 2! 🌳🚶🏻‍♀️🏕️ Stay strong and take good care of yourself man, you are one of my favourite you tubers!

how much memory you needed on your SD cards on trials like GR11 and how you keep it safe during trips? Do you take any external hard drive with you etc?

Out of curiosity what were your calories per ounce or gram that you carried on trail between resupplies?

How is the Mont Bell jacket mate?

Get a pair of Sungod sunglasses. They're built for activity.

Bummer about the weather. Hopefully having no tent inner isn't causing too much misery. If what you showed in your prior video is what you're diet has consisted of I'm not sure I'd place full blame on the meals. You could certainly do way worse like pastries and fast food. Could just be a combination of things like adverse weather, too long of days, no ready access to hot meals or drinks etc... On an aside DCF really is terrible for stuff sacks. Either it abrades through or the thin plastic lamination gets punctured. Most guys just chop down a heavy duty trash bag. If you want something more tailored to a pack you should check out garage grown gear for their Nylofume liner.

Hey Chase. The FKT worked out als thanks to your knee exercise. Thanks and cu out there!

What waterproof jacket did karim have?

Does Kareem have a channel?

I’m hoping to thru the HRP in 2022. I’ve done a lot of hiking in the US. My main concern is getting good quality plant-based food in the trail towns. I’d be interested in hearing about your experience with that and lessons learned.
