You were first hiker I followed from start to end that completed the hike. What a trip it was . Still mad you would not let us donate for the adventure you took us on.

Boy I’m sure you don’t remember me but I followed you last year and so enjoyed you style of presentation. You bring such a spiritual flare to the AT Thru Hiker experience. I followed several tramilies this 2024 year. Yet from time to time I would check back on your channel. I pray to are well and enjoying life. Did you make it to trail days ? Mark your calendar to check in your see if I made on trail for 2025 and at 72 I might just be a hoot to watch . Thank you for sharing, teaching and inspiring. God Bless you . ❤😊 Tom

Spectacular day Frizzle! The freedom of soloing in the winter with everything so quiet. I think I prefer hiking in the winter over the summer. Great to see you on the trail again.

My wife and I were there last February during a dramatic rainstorm. Under the bridge looking up through the mist and clouds. I would like to hike the trails on a sunny day in spring. I'm glad you took the road down to the river, and over the old bridge and then the New Bridge. It really gives you two totally different perspectives.

I followed your 23 through hike my family and some friends are going to the Biltmore House on April 6th. You did a beautiful job with the video and taking pictures. I was there about 4 years ago by myself, My wife had a bug that day, I can't wait to go again. Thanks again. Plus You're at hike through Harpers ferry was also a great video which you had many of.

If you visit Biltmore again, try to see the gardens when they are in bloom.They are quite nice. I hope you enjoyed the winding road approach to the home. Frederick Law Olmsted, as you may have discovered on your tour, designed the grounds in collaboration with George Vanderbilt. It really showed the expression of genius and financial resources that the two had available to create a landscape masterpiece, that is still so well maintained today. It is readily apparent to see the quality of workmanship, from today and from one hundred fifty years ago. A truly awesome place.

Awesome! Wrote a poem for someone who finished the A.T. in 2020. My Appalachian dream at last is within sight. I’ve walked it’s every mile and touched it’s blaze of white. I’ve felt the bitter cold and the scorching summer sun, But deep inside a voice, I’ll not quit until it’s done. At times I thought it cruel, with tears upon my face, But most times just enraptured with its beauty and its grace. I slept on glorious mountain tops a million stars above, And stood in teary silence in misty meadows clothed in sun. This trail will always know me our bond is sweat and blood. For now this dream is finished, but for others, has just begun - M. Rebeor
