I’m always amazed at how well you are able to inspire myself and I know many others with just how beautifully shot these scenes are but also tell a story along with it. Every time I get a notification about you uploading a new video I usually drop what I’m doing and watch immediately. Excited for episode 2!

[@Andrew-mo6iz]

PauseUnpause I watched lots of your MC videos back in the day, are you into hiking now? That’s cool to see you here

[@okiedirt]

Thank you so much for making these available again, I have missed this series much!

[@kaylaepperhart]

Guys these rivers crossings are no joke. Have you considered wearing life jackets? You can find very light PFDs that could save your life if you get swept away.

[@theadventuresofzoomandbettie]

Awesome hike guys! Looked like a challenge but lots of fun too!

[@wesleywehrle3995]

Best yet! What a fun group.

[@1123-m5z]

i cannot explain how grateful i am for the spark of stoke you ignited inside me to get out and enjoy moving through and with the wilderness brother thank you so much for these documentations of your memories, i want nothing more or less from you in the future -if you dont continue making videos these will love on in my heart no matter what. and the spirit and inspiration to hike and explore and live fully -i am, and will be, full heartedly living myself always and forever thx

[@jmanracing1]

Glad to have you back John Z. I look forward to part 2

[@harrisonparker4347]

Finally a new vid! Thanks man. Love your stuff.

[@emartinsfontes]

It’s so nice to be able to watch your videos. They are inspiring, poetic and with an interesting narrative. I wish you and your dear ones a happy new year, with, hopefully, many hikes and new stories. Best, Freewalker

[@EarlyRiser71]

Thanks for sharing John.

[@max-zl1vm]

I liked how you narrated this one after the fact. The story is nice. Looking forward to the second

[@ZachShock13]

What a beautiful late Christmas present! Thanks John!!!

[@adriansuter1697]

Lord have mercy there he is again! Man have I missed you, dude!

[@alexhonken]

ah shit, only six minutes :( ah yes, part 1 :) excellent story telling. pacing and narrative are not always easy, but you always manage to convey a sense of big distance and up close insight. 10/10

[@k2thah286]

John, the music is... *kisses fingertips

[@paxtianodirtfrog8947]

Hey John, recently started watching you and I really like what your doing. Both hiking and filming wise. Can't wait to follow this story as I prepare to go for the first of what I hope to be many backpacking journeys. I feel like your film making is taking a form of its own before my very eyes.

[@dimml0r]

you cant do this. i finally got off the johnz drug... accepting detox... and then after months this... i am hooked within 20 secs...

[@sargeantforge]

great storytelling!

[@hibiru6868]

Looks like an epic trek. Glad you're sharing your adventures with us again!

[@mayradventures]

There's technique to river crossings, many times in high water a team effort is the safest way.

[@JH-lf3si]

The 'tripod' tactic works if are you solo. Have trekking points in front of you as you're facing the current, creating a 'fork' in the water in front of you. This helps as you slowly walk side to side as you cross. Importantly keep the poles in front of you to fork, and always (circumstances vary) have three points of contact.

[@jeffschroeder886]

Great start! I'm pumped for the rest of the story John. Thx for sharing, as always.

[@christopherch7307]

Outstanding and amazing Journeys that you share with others. I appreciate you sharing your passion. Safe travels

[@RoadToFreedom29]

As always Zohn a stunning edit and looks like a right adventure! Looking farward to ep2

[@MrBabyLegs107]

[@jakob_lr]

"Andrew Skurka approved" might be the best quote yet

[@AlexanderCerio]

Been wondering what you've been up to. Glad to see you back!

[@markmarkmark427]

Itchin for part 2 with that ending. As always, phenomenal content. Such an authentic touch about your work. Really hits the feelings involved.

[@Odlum40]

I love how "aspires to be a space doctor" coincides with Daisy struggling with her hat.

[@caveman7608]

Whoa this is inspiring. When she was sinking I thought quick sand.

[@Smilin_Don]

[@anuronironworks6164]
