Appalachian Trail Documentary: Hiking Georgia to Maine

I loved this video!

the amound of anxiety watching you so deep in the water crossing would be my hold back. I honestly do not think I would have crossed. I can swim but have a fear of fast moving currents and not being able to see my footing

I'm very confused on how this doesn't have more views. Watched the entire thing, it is awesome

I did the trail back in 1974 just in NC Outward bound.. What does it matter if you go half way up to Damascus and turn back to Georgia? Still the same distance! TOO many rules.

You did a remarkable job at showing so much of the natural trail and life at camp and the laces you stopped. Awesome job. And awesome achievement.

Great job. I’m going to give it a shot. In 87/88, I was at Ft Benning, GA. The 3rd Ranger Battalion was just formed and 10th Mountain was being relocated to Ft Drum, NY. 10th Mountain hiked the AT from GA to NY. I don’t know if the entire battalion did it or not but I imagine that was trail magic right there 😂

I can do the half-gallon challenge, no problem. I’m hoping to do the hike too 😂

The trail does not provide. God provides, even on the trail.

I'm so proud of you and what a fantastic job documenting your journey for all to go with you or watch years later. I hope your still having grand adventures and will hope to be updated. Lots of love, peace and adventure to you.

I loved your video! You make it look so fun/funny! Way to go BIBP!

This is the most interesting, fun, and inspiring documentary I've watched in a long time. And I don't even hike..... yet. ✨️
GREAT JOB RANGER! 💛🌻

Great job to all of you in this film. I hope for all of you that this adventure has forfilled all those feelings that you felt were absent in your life's. I wish all of you well and happiness in your future life's. You are all hero's completing the walk through the entire AT. Congratulations.

This was lovely to watch. I hope someday i can do something like even a fraction of this trip

Spent many days at laurel Falls. Hiked up to it one day when it was minus 5 degrees. the falls were frozen and you could hear the water coming down behind the ice. What most people don't know is that if you hike up the river right side of the falls and get to the top you can follow the creek upstream until you cove to the river wide ledge that cross the river and forms a 5' falls all the way across. from here there is a small animal trail that shoots off to the left and basically follows the river upstream. When you intersect the river at last. The trail ends here. There is a water slide that cuts thru rock you can slide down. spent many days at this swimming hole with some of my friends. On several occasions I walked up the creek all the way back to the AT trail. My nephew said if he ever had to hide this is where he would come. Virgin forest on river left with 200' cliffs on river right. Those woods were my refuge for many years. I never expected to leave, but have very fond memories of Laurel Falls,

My condolences to the deceased thru hiker. I would had waited or found another route to bypass the river.
I'm Glad you Made it to the other side! ❤
That was way too dangerous to do for any thru hiker.
I value my life over short friendships, any time! 😢😮
AMC is blame for those dangerous river crossings. Money over Safety... Just plain sickening!!! 🥺😭😡😤

This was cool.. 👍👍

That was rad!

I love your style

I am late to the party, but gosh Ranger it was such a joy to watch this 🥰 it brought back so many wonderful trail memories of the AT class of 2023 and I loved seeing some sneaks of Barbie & I in there. Thank you for sharing your story so fellow hikers like me can reminisce the amazing adventure that was the 2023 Appalachian Trail Class 💙

Plus it was also comforting to know that I wasn't the only one who struggled so much with the Whites or the first 30 miles of Maine. 😅 Glad y'all were all able to make it safely through that river crossing - we had one like that too that we had to road walk around... it was a learning moment for sure. Happy Trails and can't wait to see all your future adventures!

wonderful thank you! I needed some inspiration

Awesome video Ranger! Happy Trails from the “Ottada Way Cafe “ Bacon Wrap😊

This is an awesome video! Thank you for putting this out there, I hope to have a similar experience someday.

Very well done Ranger! Both the Trail, and this video. I have not thru-hiked (yet), and may only section-hike. It's nice to watch all y'all conquer your problems and fun to watch your triumph. Cheers to all the people in this video!

Great story and video. I hiked the AT in 2023 as well, and met Smoke Master very early on - please say hi to him from Dagwood!

So awesome. I did my NOBO thru-hike back in 2015 and you brought back many incredible memories. Outstanding documentary and congrats fello Thru-hiker

I thought there was going to be more beer!

Ranger, you did a wonderful job on this video, superb job the content was very put together and integrated perfectly. Great job, great effort. 2nd time watching this epic adventure with you and everyone else on the AT. Bravo girl!!!!

Wow! What an accomplishment in life. Do you have to go back the same trail to point A?

inspiring! 2023 was a wet one here in Maine. Enjoyed your video.

Caught a lot of the dailies you did last year. Nicely put together

Wow this is such a unique, well put together documentary and video. I love your sense of humor and attitude, great inspiration!

I think that you should go around to local or national news companies, when you’ve retired from hiking, to report the news. You’re really good at it and so funny.

Congratulations! What a special, wonderful experience!

You captured the true essence of the hike🥾🥾🥾

I had to rewatch this. I loved following your journey last year. Waking up to a weekly vlog from you on the trail.

Did you go back and do the miles you skipped on the river!?!?😊

Great video girl heard your interview on trail tales jumped over subscribed loving the channel your true genuine and awesome

Really enjoyed this doc! It was cool getting to relive the trail through your eyes.

Loved it! Great commentary and story telling! Best A.T. Documentary we’ve seen 😀✌🏼

“Nothing works out like the picture you have in your head “…
Too long for me to tattoo down my arm 🤔 I may have to settle on a needlepoint on my wall to see first thing in AM …

“Sheranger” 😂
You are a fantastic video maker ! I hope you get discovered big time !

This was awesome!! I’m so proud of you for pushing! I grew up in “The Whites” and the trails are beautiful and insane! I lived in Lincoln/North Woodstock until 2013 and can’t count how many times I brought hikers to and from town . My car was just a little Neon but we were able to fit 5 people in the backseat and 2 others in front. 🙂

Hiker trash 😂😅 luv it!

Great stuff, did you see any Feral people on the way in Tennessee?

Great video! Talented🎉

Hey Ranger,
this documentary is awesome, and makes me feel in a way it's hard to describe! I thru-hiked NoBo the AT last year, and I've met YOU at Pinkham Notch! I also hiked for more than a day with Tiger, Wild Coyote and Gandalf! Seeing you guys on the trail is like being there again, at least with part of my soul. If you are reading this... I miss you all!

Very high quality doc. Brought back so many memories of my 2013 AT thruhike. Congratulations on a job well done!

Good stuff! I'm planning to go next year. Great video full of emotions and spirit.

Wow. You did a very, VERY good job on this video. It's obvious you put a ton of thought and work into it. Great job.
