The Long Trail: Day 14

Left Waterbury heading towards Mt. Mansfield.
My Book Info:
Pushing North: Tame the Mind, Savor the Journey www.amazon.com/dp/B0997DNRXF/...
This book tackles the mental struggles humans face when on long-distance and long-duration events like a thru-hike. There is a lack of mental literature focused on our hiking community and this book will help fill the gap.
If you are like me, I read books like "Appalachian Trials" by Zach Davis before my hike. It was awesome and helped tremendously, but we need even deeper perspectives to increase the success rate of aspiring thru-hikers. 75 percent don't make it and their mental chaos, I argue, is the biggest reason.
This book is a must for every human faced with tough challenges in their lives (AKA all of us). It will help you gain awareness of what is happening in your mind and why. It will also give you the tools to control the chaos and find more fulfillment in the journey.

    Can't get enough of the views. You are so right about keeping the matrix out.

    I’m enjoying your journey which is spurring me on to a thru hike in 2023, which would be from my apartment in NYC to Quebec. This would mean hiking part of the Long Path in NY, the AT, and full length of the LT.

    Just subbed, coming over from Feral's channel. Hoping that you'll continue vlogging future hikes. 👍 There, a day late, but I fixed my comment: not "control", but "continue" 🙄.

    Love the view from Puffer, I stayed there and the sunrise was awesome. Next best is Whiteface Shelter in the Sterling range looking back at Mansfield. WIDG

    Watched this series as the first video of yours. First three videos I’m thinking, this guy was an SOF guy, just from your attitude and tips. Even the way you talked about planes and hotels. Looked in your “about” and nothing. Then saw a recommendation for a book where you mentioned SOF. I wasn’t, but a good friend of mine was a Green Beret. You guys wear it.

    another excellent ER video, it's amazing at the healing power of mother nature! all you have to do is get outside and let her go to work.

    Jupiter is interesting but I prefer my sleeping pad to his yoga mat. Like you’re stating that you had to remind yourself to stay in the presence. So easy to lose the beauty

    Not sure. I pull from Epidemic Sound and don't really keep track of which tune went with which video. Download a song finder app...it will nail it. 🤘🕓
