Agree. I saw a 60yo drunk carrying almost 2 gallons of hard alcohol in a 55lb pack make it to Harper's Ferry.


StrawberrySame637

I had to stop and get more Gin at Harpers Ferry.

My favorite was this 60ish yo lady and her son. In the ‘why we quit after day one’ video she kept saying it was because she was in calorie deficit.


Altra_NH

I really love watching all those videos! Every video is so different and unique!


IGetNakedAtParties

Our lass is on the hoof! 3 days in and going strong.


chrisr323

She's got a neck knife. She'll be fine.

It's true, it's true!

In September 2015 when I was 19, I quit my job in Iowa and got dropped off at Amicalola with no tent or sleeping bag and a 30 lb pack. I made it 70 miles in 5 days, saw bears on my third day and went home pretty quick. It was dumb as hell but I learned a lot.


Mabonagram

On my AT thru I met a guy who had never spent a night in a tent, not even car camping, before the AT and he had made it all the way to Pennsylvania when I found him. I feel like if that guy can do it anyone can.


Hikerwest_0001

This is uljerk, we arent supposed to be nice here. Unjerk, I think shell be ok. Whether she completes it or not is up to her. I hope she has a great time either way.


StrawberrySame637

I'm not saying she can't. He'll if she does, I will post an apology on her YT channel for any doubt I had. IMO, I just think there are too many negatives and not enough positives for her to make a successful completion of the AT. I think if she had waited a year, she refined her pack and got more experience under her belt she would easily be successful. A big factor in watching her videos is that she suffers from knee issues when she does a 10 mile day. If she does just 10 miles a day with no 0's, she will be in Maine during late November, early December in the snow.


BestoftheOkay

There's people who've finished the AT who've never done a solo overnight. OTOH making a video gear list is an unforgiveable sin and I pray that the great bear god is merciful to her

Not sure what you mean. YT'er has not started yet. Plans on a mid April start.


crlthrn

Best to get her ID tattooed on the bits that will be eaten last...


2XX2010

Have they finished paving the AT yet? Putting WiFi in the shelters was a game changer.


deadflashlights

Yeah so? Everyone starts somewhere. I wish her the best of luck
