Best Long Trail video ever! I watched it all in one go. You really captured the ups and downs of a thru-hike and Luke was an awesome supporting actor. All worth the wait!!

Thanks, Evan!!! I appreciate that even more, since I know you understand what it’s like to Thruhike AND what it’s like to put together a full trail video!😅 Forgot to tell you the other day… I rewatched your full AT vid while i was working on this edit. Man, you really nailed that and it’s like hard for me to comprehend how you were able to piece it all together the way you did. My brain literally only works in chronological order so I can’t seem to figure out how to skip around and just cut to the plot points like you do and make it make sense. I know my editing has improved a million times though since having you as a mentor, so thank you!

Nicee. Awesome to see this vid from you and I too have have watched Evans AT vids twice (among others) and surely will again. 👍🏻🌲

I never think I'm going to watch the whole thing...but I always watch the whole thing! So fun!

You two are so awesome - loved this❤ Watched to prep for my thru in the near future - looks like a really fun ass kicking 😊

Seriously enjoy watching you and Luke, good to see a new one posted from you all! Happy Trails 💚 PS: River baths are the absolute best! Can be soooo cold, but feels incredible when finished, especially after a hard day of hiking!

The both of yall have beautiful souls🙏🏾🙏🏾

Thanks so much! Honestly the editing is even harder than the hiking, so I appreciate these comments the most!😆 Thanks for sticking around!

Warm food after a long day is priceless. I tried the stoveless thing for a few trips. Not for me. For me, having some hot food when it's cold or rainy is absolutely priceless. Huge morale boost.

Great hand stands! Cool video. Thanks for such great info about the Long Trali. Looks like quite a challenge.

I freaking loved this video!!!!

Love tagging along with you two! So much fun!

Very well done! Brings back a load of great memories for me, I loved the LT! You had more rain to deal with than I did!

I'm not crying.. u are! Omgs that was a wonderful video. I don't usually comment on utube but girl u have seriously got me in my feelings right now! Thank you! Thank you! On soooo many levels

Great video. Great hike. Thank you!

Oh my god it is great to see you hiking , I spend the summer watching you Liz, then we meet your hubby at the end of the AT. You guys look great !

Totally awesome video Liz! It would take me forever to hike that. I’d be stopping every 5 feet to check out a plant. That ghost pipe was amazing. Thanks for sharing this with us! Hugs & love to you, Luke, & Miss Piggy ❤️❤️❤️

Great video. I hiked the Long Trail back in 2009, and it was cool recognizing places and remembering what I 'd done there. For instance, when I got to the Middlebury ski area it was sunny and breezy and I spent an hour there drying out all of my clothes.

Awesome job putting this together 👍. Enjoyed watching this adventure of both of you. Love the carefree spirit you guys have. One of the best full feature videos of the Long Trail capturing all it has to offer and teach 😁 Hope you guys are doing well.

Epic!

Thank you Liz and Luke

Love it all ❤️👣. You two are living the good life. I watched your AT videos and Evans also. So cool he performed the wedding ceremony for you. I'm pretty sure I'm hiking the Long trail in August. I've hiked it before but in 2 large sections. In '15 I hiked from the AT cut off North to Canada. I saved the southern section so I could enjoy it during my AT hike in '21. . Hoping it's a bit dryer than your trip but it's great to be out in the mountains anytime. Best to you and Luke always, Mad Rat 😎

Still wish I could of gave you 2 sum trail magic when u came through the lower part of v.t . One day it will happen if u do either trail again. Enjoyed the recap 🙌

Great video! Cool that Luke was with you the whole time. Love that opening theme music, too, funKAYY. I haven't hiked in Vermont yet, but I'm sure I will some day. Closest I've gotten is the Adirondacks. Mount Horrid?? Haha, what a name. "Fear less." That's a good motto.

❤ great video. I got to re-live my trek. Class of 2022. 17:50 gave my flashbacks of being hot and sweaty, hitting a peak and getting the cool breeze

Been hiking the Allegheny Trail to prepare for for a Long Trail hike in a couple years. Rugged and remote I love challenging stuff.

Lukes mullet may be the star of the show ngl

Mad Tom Shelter, if I recall, was a closed-in lean to overlooking a beautiful vista. I did the first 85 miles in May and tapped out in Rutland. There was no one on the trail and the trees were still leafless. Ice on some of the higher ridges. Having hiked and lived in the Whites in my teens and early 20s I found the LT to be less elevation change, but deceptively hard on the legs and feet.

Beautiful

I love it! My husband and I are going to get to hike together ❤️ I can't wait

Congratulations! Well hiked!

Two of my favorite hikers, people of all time. It was a pleasure to watch again. If ever looking for a similar trail but at only 137 miles and nearby, try the (NTP) Northville Placid Trail in Upstate New York. It’s a carbon copy of the 100 mile Wilderness. - Nails

Watching again from the laptop. (It's DaniK). Just finished the NPT on Sunday, so back on my bullshit of planning the next one before the AT. Not sure I'm ready for this. But still...can't WAIT. Met an AT hiker (class of 2018) on the last stretch before Lake Placid. He nodded enthusiastically when I suggested this as another next biggie before. I know it gets way harder after that first 100...that's what I'm worried about...but clearly the BEST views :) Was it pretty well marked? I'm solo, but have a Garmin.

Wow Liz and Luke, that was a really challenging hike between the weather conditions and the technical, rocky sections. Congratulations on completing the Long Trail! Question: Did you guys have your car parked at the end? Have a great weekend!!

Love watching your adventures. How’d the Salomon shoes work out. I’ve elated getting a pair.

Gore tex socks for the win!

Outstanding video-- this trail has intrigued me. If my daughter ends up at the U. of Vermont- I may be tackling it. What tent is that you used on this trail? Would you recommend that style? I ask as you def. put it to work with the rain you encountered.... looks very light weight

Watched the long version and watched it all again here… best rerun in a long while 😉 P.S. you should do a foot only collage video 😂🤣😂

Looks well you know… the 14er in Colorado looked much more enjoyable. Keep on keeping on!

Hi Liz thank you for sharing! What time of year/ what month did you do the LT?

I love your hiking videos!!

Any desire to hike the Florida Trail? I’d love to see you, Luke and Evan hike that!

Superb vlog! I'm planning on hiking it this Fall, and want me gf to join for a week. Any suggestions on stretches that combine beauty with trailhead accessibility? Thanks.

What tent are you using in this video?
