I have a specific diet, meaning resupplies are a must. But I hate them and I wish they weren’t:(
I’m preparing my first in Sweden Kungsleden. Seems I’m on the right way. Thank you for your advice!
Wisdom. Thank you for being transparent and honest. Happy trails to you wherever the trail takes you 😉
Yup, a lot of folks have said it, but slow down. I enjoy the trail a lot more now. I stop and try to use my senses. I have found that I am not as sore, my spirits stay high and this is a big one far fewer injuries. Over all, yes, I log less miles, but I gain more smiles (sorry, I lucked into that)
I’m an Asian, is PCT Trial allow. I’m 55 and planning for my dream hike in 2020. Physical still should not have any problem.
I backpacked in the early 70’s. Things sure have changed a lot. Now the only way I can enjoy the high country is on horseback. I practice “leave no trace” through BCHA. I really enjoy your videos and those from others. I have learned a lot about all the high quality equipment that is now available. Thank you for making videos. Travel Blessings!
As much time as you spend hiking I hope you are packing some fire power.
Here in WI, we have the Ice Aged trail…1,200+ miles long, within one state.
cheers man some super helpful tips that’ll help me out later on!!
You have hiked 7k miles? I haven’t even driven 7k miles…..love your channel��
I have a question. What do you all do for a living that you guys can take four to six months off work to hike a trail? I’m genuinely curious because there’s no way I could do that and I wish I could.
Thanks for the advice…!
I will watch more of your videos and I gladly subscribed to your channel…!��
Hey Lucky Strike! I plan on hiking <500 miles nobo.. start date May 12th, you have any info on what permits I should get?? thanks in advance!
I scanned the CT Guide and loaded the PDF to my phone, along with my shopping food list and main water stops/campsite list. Too easy.
Skandinavia: lots of small water runs, but every once in a while you would risk getting water into your boots and going barefooted is awful when not used to pointy rocks. Solution: bring water shoes, I got some really low weight ones around 3 oz for 15 bucks. Also nice in the evening to give your feet a rest in uneasy terrain at camp.
Great words of advice there fella! Love your work, keep it comin. ����
I just planned a two day backpacking trip to Utah this May. Its a short trek, only 10-15 miles. I’m really excited.
I just dont feel compelled to vlog the entire experience. Glad other people enjoy it but I’m more about roughing it, being closer to nature, self reflecting. Not begging strangers for likes and subs.
Lesson 5 is a big one for me. It’s winter 7 months of the year here in Saskatchewan and by snowshoeing in winter it allows me to stay connected to the trail making the long winters more bearable. In winter I also buy new gear and replace old gear which also helps me stay connected to the trail. This winter I’m planning some weekend overnighters for spring and summer where I will use only cheap survival gear from Amazon to camp with to see how it all stacks up if it were ever put to the test in a real survival situation and the planning has been so much I hope the overnighters aren’t a let down when the time comes to get out there and test these products. LOL That’s a couple of the ways I stay connected to the trail and to nature in general when there’s a -40c windchill outside and I’ve got cabin fever.
I use the 1 square shit ticket method so you don’t have to carry too much tp.
As a former Girl Scout I remember making a “sit-upon” with rolled newspaper and contact paper the original “ass pad”!
Embrace the suck… I hiked down a deer trail 5 miles to find the actual trail once. It was horrible, but looking back it was one of the best hikes.
I love the fact that you guys give advice and that is beautiful thing and I would love to stay connected so yes I join your family
One thing I make sure I do is get to a doctor to get a couple back to back 6 month prescriptions of my medication so I don’t have to worry about running out while on my adventures.
✌ �� �� ��
Whatever decision you make on trail, it usually ends up to be a good one
WOW, just finished watching your video on planning for the AT and you have definitely answer some questions I have had for a while I want to do my hike next year so I’ve got to get busy right now, thanks for all the info you offered.
Another great hack is to pour hot water in your meal pouch, seal it up to cook, and use it as a heat pad while your food cooks. Feels great on back and legs!
How do you spend $1000 a month while hiking? I thought the whole point was to escape capitalism. All you really need once you have gear is food. I sure hope you don’t spend 1k on food lol.
I have made the decision to travel the path in the year 2021, for the 2200 miles it has, now I am practically in a stage of learning, and watched all the videos are yours that I found in youtuve, and those of many others, I like the way you approach the ideas that others have, even the simplest ones, all of them can be positive experiences that could be used at any time.
So I urge you, to continue making these videos, because as I can read, somewhere in the world someone pays attention to you. I hope to meet you, maybe somewhere along the way..
Holy shit. I saw in in your Georgia picture! I met him in 2014!
Wow I think this is my fave all of your vids I’ve watched ❤️ Totally with you on points 1,2 and 4. Point 3 you really taught me something. Plus I have a really really bad memory, so I probs need a digital record more than most ��
At the end of the vid you asked what we have learnt on our long hikes, well perhaps for me it’s that we are capable of a lot more than untested, we realise. We are capable of higher performance, more determination and much more variation in how we live. We are cultured to become self-limiting imo. It is amazing and depressing how we become our own gaol wardens as we grow up. And that makes us sad little people in our little ticky-tacky box lives. We should not only be open to adventure and challenge, but should also chase it. We owe it to ourselves, this path to self-actualisation. I like that old Gide quote ‘one cannot discover new lands without first losing sight of the shore’. To find out what life and the world may hold in store for us we must simply head out into it, unfettered by social convention or our own expectation. Break free of all boundaries. So umm in short, it has taught me to reevaluate everything I thought I knew about my place in the world and what kind of life I want, rather than what kind of life I should expect of and for myself.
Btw, when will you venture outside the USA? Surely the time has long since come
I would say mentioned something about wildlife in the area. A lot of these people that have not even hiked before that go on these Trails have no idea when they encounter a large cat bear or anything else in the wild. I thought it was a great video until I heard you say about a thousand a month average. I guess I haven’t done as much research to show that it might cost me that much I guess I am a minimalist and have climbed Mount Shasta for example 29 times and just don’t see how it would cost me that much. If you have any resources that you specifically like please let me know that would be great thanks
In Wyoming we called tp mountain money. Does any one else use that slang?
I am a vet and deal with depression. The trail has helped me to smile and laugh at my moody self.
Lol, an hour before I watched this video I saw a grunt style shirt that said embrace the suck. I thought that would be a good hiking shirt, then I saw this video, lol, so I guess it would beca good shirt.
tip for any PCTers the first 700 miles you will need to carry upto 10 liters of water in places and ther has been assholes shooting water tanks along the trail in year past so never count on them having water
These are really good lessons. One lesson I have learned is that there is no failure, only more adventures.
Instead of a big heavy book carry a.kindle. Then you can carry hundreds of books, guides etc. But also downloaded movies.
I learned that the old America of generosity & kindness still exists on the trail…so many hikers or town folk will just give u a ride, some missing gear, place to stay, food, drinks, etc. Met so many incredibly nice ppl from all over the world… “embracing the suck” is right on; some of the most difficult/exhausting mtn passes became the best memories. Also, if u come across some Canadian chicks, do follow, as they are always positive & like good times.
Thank you very much yes this was very valuable you brought up some points that I did not think of thank you again
Hey Darwin, Can we get an update on this list? Anything new you have learned?
Any plans to celebrate 10,000 miles when you get there? ��0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ ��
As an old man I would say that not only do the sucky days make the good days better, but as you get older the sucky moments are the best moments. They make up most of my favorite memories.
Darwin, it would be very interesting for you to consider doing a large section of a hike going all vegan. (I’ve been one for 30+ years and sectioned hiked 1,700 of the AT. I believe u would be amazed at the difference. We also avoid all processed oils, hence never need to soap your pots. Obviously you would need to try it out for say 3-4 weeks at he prior to a hike. Prob the number one go to site would be Nutritionfacts org, 2,000 + videos. I’m constantly experimenting but generally make all my own food. My off trail diet consists of about 75% unrefined starchy (carbohydrate) foods. I just add lots more raw nuts n no sugar added dried fruits. I also trail run have very good health, take zero meds have no family doctor. I’m 66 wife also dropped 56+ lbs in 8 months (drmcdougall com is a doc we’ve followed for 30 years The Starch Solution). I really Enjoy ur videos ������������������✌��
I’ve learned it’s always a little harder than expected and don’t even think about looking cute or smelling good! ✌��
Loved it! Thanks! I am planning the AT in a few years, and am SUPER excited. I learn new things every day. Thanks for your info!
After doing many various distance hikes in Switzerland I went back to Europe 6 years later. Started in Grenoble France, grabbed a map which had GR routes on it and took off with no specific plan in mind. Went through the Parc National des Ecrin, then to Briancon, decided that Switzerland was I reachch. Took a right turn on GR5 and made it to Montreaux in a month and a half. I saw almost no one! It has been my most favorite hikes I’ve done. My point is, there are tons of walking trails in the world. If you want a solitary experience, don’t follow a well known route, make up your own way.
Funny I loaded my pack down with dirty laundry and hiked to my grandmothers house to do laundry. Just to see if I could be ok with a pack on.
Very Important Tip that you didn’t mention. #1 if you are hiking with other people be absolutely certain that everyone in your group is on the same page visa-vis experience, preparedness and expectations.
How about extras. Im thinking of taking an art journal kit assembled by me.water color box with journal book small carry caseonr that doesnt fall apart.
Optical gear cheap durable camera
Astronomy scope. Not the cheap crap.something like 100mm f5 reflector or 80mm f5 refractor orion or similar. Astronomicsl binoculars and hiking binocs 7×50
Some kind of online device. Phone tablet laptop. Second hand. Oldet mote durable.
Thinkimg whats thè most practical set up.
Thinking in terms of urban countryside wilderness type hiking trekking long distance walking.
Thinking of taking up short trips in quite areas. Basically breaking my self in and my gear in.
Stuff breaks falls apart etc.
There are walking trails internationally.
Id like to try some in the uk japan korea.and us. Using heat that will be legal across orders.eg Dirty boots gas cannisters. Fluid containers. Fruit. Medication etc….. Good blog im reserching different sites seeing other peoples experiences.
Great tips as usual Darwin. I am curious, i noticed you got a new FF Canon eos r camera. And you are still using your trusty 28mm prime lens. Do you need to use a lens adaptor with it since it’s not an rf lens?
One thing that stucked with me till this day is:
” Wherever you are, be all there” Jim Elliot
(As it was saying on the wall at NEAL’ S GAP Outfitters, when I started my thru-hike)
Great videos. Good shots of the poison oak and good advice. Is there anyway of knowing if your clothes have brushed up against it? Can you see the oil residue? 1-3 weeks egaads! Is it growing super close to the trail? What mile was that little water source at?Thanks. I’m a fan! I start April 4 coming from the west coast of Canada. Every little bit of desert info is so helpful. How was that climb out of Hauser creek?
Have another great weekend of hiking.
Thank you so much for your videos, there’s so many people that tell me it’s stupid and there’s no point, but it’s something I’ve dreamed about for years. I’m turning 19 and I don’t want to keep waiting for the perfect time, because that’s never going to just happen. You have to make it happen.
Ripping pages out of a book, that is horrible:-P I wonder if they carry windshield screens up here. Usually we want cars to warm up in the sun instead of sitting on cold hard seats. Actually if you used a kindle paperwhite. It is lightweight and you can have many books on it. Have your cake and…
What is trail magic? New to this but learning as much as I can in the off season
Well as a 19 year old who wanted to try something crazy, the 1k a month thing really killed me.
“Take year to plan hike.”
3 minutes later
“Throw all your plans out the window.” Lol.
8:08 I know you’re talking about “Top Of Georgia”. This is the third time I have heard to steer clear of said hostile so I will be hitting up the local hotel in Hiawassee. it just makes more sense.
Potential option for # 10 Kindle (5.7 oz) super long battery life, and can get the AWOL book for free. XD. they are also pretty thin.
Where you guys been? Expect a friend request on Facebook, I’d really love to hear from you!
Thanks for the advice, Darwin. I’m definitely more aware of local trails for section hikes and can’t wait to get started. Can you do a video specifically on how to mail stuff to yourself?
So, open relationships on the trail. Not sure my wife would be willing to do that. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.
Outstanding video, advice and everything else. God bless you.
Take some self-defense classes and maybe learn how to throw some of those special knives that they have learn to defend yourself watch videos about bears and mountain lions what have you. Learn to fast to go a couple days without fo.od does videos on that too.
With total sincerity, How exactly does the trail talk to you? Or are you talking more about your intuition while in the moment?
Hey bro you forgot the IAT. Ice Age Trail in Wisconsin. It’s amazing and it’s 1,220 miles of rugged terrain and high elevations on bluffs,ridges, and much more stuff. Such a beautiful trail. It’s the only trail in the United States that runs through one single state and runs along the glacial formation area of Wisconsin. I’m section hiking it right now.
Bro, instead of trying to remember all the details of your experience, strive to never give up making new memories. We forget things for a reason, and forgetting good things has its place too. Go forth with joy. I did not record much of many of my adventures…and so be it. This perspective keeps me excited for the future and not lamenting any loss of the past. Memories can be lile a ball n chain we cling to that drags us down, or a lovely dove we admire and set free.
you left out stuff like parking/parking fees, permits if applicable, knowing state or federal laws, buying trail guides, maps and navigation, safety (letting someone know you’re hiking), emergency plans, etiquette, leave no trace, etc.
Always called it a shitkit (loo roll and hand sanitiser) but shit tickets, man ��
I use a slightly larger ass pad to serve as a door mat for the tent. I’m old and make a couple “trips” each night. Really handy to roll out on the clean cushion. Keeps the tent clean.
Hey brother…I have some questions I could use some support on. Are you on FB?
Thank you Darwin. Thanks for the video’s. You do a good job. I would like to see you write guide books. One for each trail, or one big book with separate sections detailing how to,,,and places to stay…gear lists… Extreme details. Ive watched quite a few of your videos and I’m certain you can do a good job with a guide book.
I never split a small hotel room with 11 other people in South Padre before but if I did I would only have like two people at the front desk with checking in.
Dude, I was at REI the other day and grabbed the thermarest z pad walked around the store and grabbed a couple of more things. I sat all my stuff down because the guy that works there said he could fit my pack to my spine length, went out to the truck and grabbed it. Came back in, checked out, woke up in the morning and realized I left my ass pad!!!!!
Hi, whenever I’m out in nature I feel totally renewed. I’m always thinking about being out in nature. With that being said I have never been on a real hike. At the moment I live in the city but just retired in December 2018. In April 2019 I’ll be moving into my travel trailer and will begin my nomadic lifestyle (God Willing)��. I really want hiking to become a part of my life. How do I meet people who are willing to teach me what I need to know in order to start?
I’m proud of you,,,your a good soul and very positive,that’s extremely important in life, Thank you for sharing your time and knowledge, I do appreciate it…
Had this video set to 1.5x playback speed to listen and for a minute was wondering how everyone was hiking so fast
Will gaffers tape work for repairs? I ask as it is easier to remove and is not as sticky. I use it on stage to tape down cables. Just a question. Thanks
I learn something new everytime i hear you speek man! Something i actually bennefit from! Thanks for shearing your tips etc
I just realized something after watching this. If you’re doing 20-30 miles, thats probably 6.5-10 hours a day right? Do you ever have free time when you’re hiking shorter days? What do you usually do when youre not hiking, cooking, sleeping, cleaning? Do you ever read a book or anything?
My wife is from Thailand where toilet paper is sold in individually packaged rolls. In Thailand, TP is used to (obviously) wipe your ass, but also in place of tissues and paper towels. So when my wife and I did our first road trip around Isaan region of Thailand, she picked up a roll of TP, poked her finger in one end of the plastic wrap, pulled out the cardboard roll from the center and the TP followed the roll, leading to a self dispensing setup. Clever little siamese lady. I just re-roll my TP into a smaller roll and keep it in a soft sunglasses case with my TentLab Deuce trowel rubber banded to it.
Great info! Thanks for taking the time and effort to help us all out!
It’s true. The trail actually communicates with you. It’s weird, I don’t know how to explain it. But it’s a wonderful connection with nature.
Hey Darwin, I’m just curious if you have ever done some fishing while you’re out on the trail. If so, I would like to see if you had any specific recommendations for an ultralight fishing rod. Please get back to me. Blessings to you on the trail!
Looking forward to more content. Thank you for taking the time to share your experience out on the trail. Starting my NOBO AT thru hike in April 2019
Thanks Darwin.
My brother and I have been planning are semi-thru hike of the AZT and are super excited to hit the trail. The plan is to finish at the Utah border on July 11th. My brothers 60th birthday.
We hope to run into you and snuggles on the trail. Thanks for all your videos and tips.
Shit tickets lol. Use baby wipes you nutter!! Loved the tips though. ��
Listening to you while doing pool drills for long distance 1 rail bankshots and everything was gravy…then 11:26 happen and my roommate’s gf busts out laughing(usually when she laughs its like hehe and done but no this was the “damn she gonna pee herself?” Type laugh…then she say’s, “did He just say to follow him on Instagram for nude(her “d” wasn’t very well enunciated and I heard it as “new” because well…I didn’t see any old nudes of y’all and I have been following for some time…but I digress) photos of him and Snuggles…?” And I thought she was laughing because you called your gf Snuggles and she had images of this young, accomplished, happy go lucky, bearded man dancing around with the Fabric sheet bear…then she asked, “I thought Insta banned nude photo’s?” and I caught on…she heard “nude” and the fabric softener bear…now that is a funny mental image…! Love the video’s been following since the ATC! p.s. I eventually explained trail names…
Creating something from my experience on the trail is so very important to me. I write a blog devoted to mental health and the outdoors plus I usually bring my journal with me. I also started making yearly scrapbooks on Shutterfly. I finally finished 2018 a few months ago and have 2019 in the works.
Hi Darwin. I’m new to your channel and love the content! I don’t backpack (yet-you are inspiring!), but have some limited experience with bicycling touring. I hope to do more of that, and your videos are equally applicable to bicycle touring! You cover topics that bicycle touring channels don’t-just what I was looking for! Thank you!!
#4 is a legit point. Might not make sense too a noob though.
Can you thru hike without the poles I hate the way they look
Hey. great advice in the video. I have a different question. what about when planning for a short through-hike where there is no made trail? have any advice on that? I’m planning to walk the length of our country (Slovenia) its quite small and it will be about 380km (236 miles). Some people have walked this path on-road or on a bike, but my goal is to make it more of a trail walking through forests and away from paved roads. I’m using online maps to mark my trail but I have found that some of the paths through the forests are not on the mas so that makes the planning a lot harder. resupplying and water won’t be that of a problem since there are so many small villages or towns all around that you can practically go off the trail at any time you want and come to a village or town in a few miles. any advice or tips you can give will be appreciated.
Cant believe you people are actually hiking such INSANE distances. The Appalacian Trail is twice the length of Norway (where i live). I have heard of people bikepacking that distance, but i have never heard of anyone actually walking that distance (although im sure it has happened)… The record holder for the AT has an average of 77km in a day… I didnt even know that was possible. I was proud and EXHAUSTED the day i did 50km in one day on my mountainbike…
On the hiker guide one, instead of tearing out pages as I go, I just make copies of the pages I need to start (because I’m one of those book lovers who can’t bring herself to tear pages out of a book) and carry them with me. I put the other copies of pages I’ll need in the future into my resupply boxes. That way I can recycle the old pages (or burn them) when I don’t need them any more and don’t have to carry the whole dang book. I also take pictures of the pages on my phone and keep them in a file there, just in case something should happen to my printed copies.
I use foam from the packing material when I bought my laptop computer. It is ultra light does not absorb water and the best part it was free. It is about an inch thick and you can cut it to size.
I live in CT, and we’re not ALLOWED to be out overnight on any trails here by law. Even on the AT, we’re only allowed to stay at the 1 designated site. It’s so hard to practice doing overnights in any consistent way. I’d love your ideas! The exception is, we can stay at camp sites if we’re willing to pay…but I thought hiking and camping was supposed to be partly about NOT paying fees for wanting to stay outdoors…is my mindset wrong???
ASSPAD is by the far the best purchase I’ve ever made aside from the essentials lol….thanks to you
So if you divide $10,000 up between 2 people that is $5,000 each. You can’t get info like that just anywhere.
Great tips, not sure some of the Scottish hotels would like 6 hikers in a hotel room. ��
I take photos with my phone of guide books so its all on my phone.
