Appalachian Trail '20 Episode 118 - Chica and Sunsets Hostel

[@marge57]

So glad you made it to Chica and Sunsets. The trail provides!!!! I am halfway through binge watching their AT thru hike. Love how you start all the videos I have watched so far with making coffee. Really sets the mood!☕👍👊

[@ChicaandSunsets]

Man, what a great video review of our hostel! We are so honored. So great getting to know you. We definitely made a new friend during your stay, please keep in touch! Safe travels for the rest of your hike! - Chica & Sunsets

[@QuicksandontheTrail]

Thanks y'all for the wonderful hospitality. It was my pleasure to make this video.

Awesome update 👍🌲Wow nice place to rest and get energized Cool

[@markcummings6856]

Nice review. Clean, tidy, welcoming. Hope to stay in late March. Thanks QS. Hope you’re staying dry.

Having my morning coffee before heading out to do tree work, and what a cool surprise to such a cool shout out. Maybe so each well meet again.

[@ChicaandSunsets]

Hello Treeman!!! Was such a HUGE gift you gave to us taking our tree down, we can't thank you enough. Glad you guys enjoyed your hike (you did a killer day!) and then met Quicksand and brought him to us as well. Take care! -- Chica & Sunsets

[@QuicksandontheTrail]

It was awesome meeting you! Hopefully we will meet again. Take care man.

Q, was that Treeman from the Treeman/Bobsled duo that hiked SOBO 2018-19? I followed their channel. Thanks for mentioning the sleeping like a baby bit. 😊 I heard that years ago and use it frequently. It gets a few chuckles, whenever it doesn't get the eye rolls. 🙄. That's a nice little hostel! I don't think that they'll have any trouble keeping it occupied. You're probably back on trail now. We had a nice day in southern New England, but showers are knocking on the door at 10:18 Wednesday night. It's been remarkably snow free this year, which is good, because I'm back to work full-time. I did have to go out with the plow crew three or four times, usually early before work or church. Makes for a long day. Hopefully the groundhog was right, and we'll have an early spring. Of course that means more bugs, especially ticks and mosquitoes 😒. Enjoy the Trail, one step and one day at a time. Peace! ✌👍

Daniel Kutcher Nope, this was Treeman’s first time on the trail and seeing the white blazes.

[@danielkutcher5704]

@@ChicaandSunsets I've noticed several people over the years with the same trail name. My adopted name, Tinker, is used by several others, and I have been mistaken for someone else over social media, sometimes out west, too. Just checking the weather in your area. Looks pretty threatening today until later on. Be safe, brother.

[@ChicaandSunsets]

@@danielkutcher5704 Yep - it is raining and thundering out this morning, looks like rain till about 1 pm...

[@danielkutcher5704]

@@ChicaandSunsets raining here, too, again. Been very wet all month so far, daytime temps above 40 have been good for my area's bicycle business. Unfortunately, the shop where I work is struggling, and I'm the only mechanic now. I can barely keep up, and am using vitamin I so I can use my arthritic, tendonitis prone hands. I will work as long as I can, then I'll mow a few lawns until the fall, and go knock off more AT, if the JMT trip doesn't materialize. Off to work now. Have a great day (nero, zero, or what have you). The Lord is always near! ☺

[@salinaroselea]

Great video enjoyed seeing it again I watched when Hawk showed it great couple glad you did not need to stay in the snow great pictures that chair look inviting enjoy your night god bless hope your knee is ok keep safe we have a lot of snow here in Canada

Watched your White Mountain videos we were at Madison Hut the same night as you. Story of the guy giving up his work for stay to the young girl was the best

[@bestillonthetrail234]

Beautiful hostel! Enjoyed when Hawk stayed there. I think we met Chica and Sunsets at trail days last year.

[@KrizAkoni]

Chica- I've watched as you guys have put everything together, but haven't seen the finished product. Incredible job, guys!!!! You're going to have people beating down the door to stay there. I may hike that section just to stay there 😁♥️ Well, and to see you guys as well 😊 Thanks for posting this, QS!!

Note in the book should read, I slept like a baby, didn’t wake up or soil myself. Lol .... cracked me up saying that. You rock, Quicksand. Happy trails ✌️

[@WILDONTHETRAIL]

I’ll be staying there in a few short weeks. I can’t wait to meet them. I have a feeling I am going to be spoiled. I appreciate the tour. Take care brother👊
