[@sheliasipes8321]

Loner Bones is awesome ! Just goes to show you can accomplish goals at any age ! Hike on !

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Shelia Sipes definitely a great guy

[@lockmckinnon6692]

That is awesome stuff. Getting to meet a legend in your first week is priceless. I'm 75 and impressed and encouraged by loner boner. I'm just working on some sections in Va and he gives me hope. Thanks for sharing.

[@texanoutdoors6409]

77 years old, he is to be commended for sure.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Kerry Young great guy

[@keithstewart2639]

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Keith Stewart me too!

[@sallyw4133]

I’m loving your videos. Thanks for taking us along.

[@jsmithers587]

Scoutmaster, thanks for these videos! I'm starting in one week and it'll be invaluable to have a preview of the trail ahead of me. I enjoy your style of video too, reminiscent of Early Riser. Hope to run into you one day!

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

jsmithers587 best of luck to you. It is a great experience.

[@GARYMANDIEVAN]

77 and looking young great video SM

[@coolwheelz5190]

Thanks for showing the historical marker......please do that whenever possible.......very cool and not something I have seen any through hiker show in vids!

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Coolwheelz will do!

[@wolfetrax6217]

Watching from East Tennessee! Thanks for sharing your journey!

[@davidson_oldbull_sectionhiker]

Your videos are bringing back great memories, I did this section from Springer to Albert Mountain 3 years ago with 4 students from Teen Challenge. The views are much nicer than in June when we were in the green tunnel.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Warren Davidson definitely

[@adamd8587]

Read a little write-up about Loner Boner a couple days ago, so pretty cool seeing him in your video. I didn't realize he was a hoosier as myself. Doing a great job SM! Its good seeing the trail before I push off in March. Thank ya!

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Adam D Trail looks great king good in GA. Loner is an icon.

[@EarlyRiser71]

Ugh...so jealous SM! As I wake up and prepare to go to work...aka Matrix...I am so wishing I was out there!!! Thanks for posting bro. Helps me get my mind right! Loner Boner is amazing!!!! Alright, time to go get huge at the gym! Keep pushing north bro!!!

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Early_Riser_71 every time it sucks I just think of the matrix and I appreciate where I am at.

[@baskets8429]

Norte Dame has a great whitewater kayaking course !

[@MiyagiontheTrail]

Keep pushing North brother!

[@1903A3shooter]

Love your videos, thanks for sharing. But can you calm down the music at the end, I have the volume up quite loud so I can hear your comments and then get blasted out when the video ends. At 75 hearing not to good and dont want to wake wife in next room. Thanks Dave.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

1903A3shooter I fixed it in the newer videos

[@kwfannin]

Good Luck ! Good videos.

[@phebefriddle9133]

I'm enjoying these videos, best of luck on your hike.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Nana Wren thanks!

[@SalineScott]

Cant believe he’s on his 4th round of the AT at 77. That’s awesome.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Scott Taylor since 60, he has hiked 33,000 miles.

[@kennethjones9324]

WoW!

[@baskets8429]

Heck yeah ! Love your vids ! Moving great wish I was hiking right now !

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Steve Pekarskiy thanks brother

[@iceagerrb2800]

Good progress, congrats! I had planned to start Springer 1/31, would have seen you; but had to rescehule to 4/17 at Harpers Ferry. Maybe I`ll bump into you. Good luck, IceagerRB

[@EarlyRiser71]

Iceager RB was wondering about you. Hope all is well.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Iceager RB sorry I didn’t get to see you but good luck and maybe we will cross paths.

[@iceagerrb2800]

ER, thanks for your note. Thought I was all set for Springer 1/31; had my flights and shuttle booked. After several 10-mile hikes, my left achilles was barking at me; a chronic issue that goes back to a rupture 10 years ago. Was in therapy when I dropped a coke can (not cherry) on my left big toe, which triggered a gout flareup. Been in a boot for a month, taking colchicine, hopefully able to train in about a week. Need Feb/March to fine tune cardio. Plan now is to go to Boston 4/14 to watch my son run the Boston marathon, then go directly to Harpers Ferry to start 4/17 NOBO. btw, I notice most hikers this year have a "ER muscle roller" in kit; see, your message took!! (I`ll have mine, been using one for years). Take care, ER. IceagerRB

[@iceagerrb2800]

Same to ya......I`ll be tuning into your videos.IceagerRB

[@EvansBackpackingVideos]

It didn’t look very crowded at Mountain Crossings-you had the whole thing to yourself! A perk of a January start I guess.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Evan's Backpacking Videos wound up me and three others including Loner. All Nobos.

[@jpjpjp453]

Got to look out for Loner Boner info when i begin north in March. Subscribed, digging your videos.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

JP JPJP thanks!

Seems like Daniels hasn't changed a bit - it was good then too! I spent more than 25 years as a scout leader here in Canada, and attended 2 Canadian Jamborees as well as 2 American ones held at A.P. Hill. I tried looking at your council patch in the intro, but couldn't make it out. Patch trading was a big thing in those days... Wishing you much luck and good fortune!

[@offroadracer99]

cool video...gets me pumped for my section hike in june...im one of those hillbillies loner referred to lol

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

offroadracer99 good luck!

[@ninjatops99]

I’m from South Bend, ND is a fabulous school but I’m telling you - unless you get a full ride scholarship- it isn’t worth the price tag. You can get a degree at ANY school the price of 4 years is like one year at ND. Over 65k per year... yikes. Good luck with your trail. Happy hiking.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

electrabot I am hoping for the scholarship lol

[@ninjatops99]

Scoutmaster OnTheAT2018 fingers crossed hopes he gets it! 👍🏻

[@britonk]

Hey! At least you had a little bit of company (: Your not very lonely now :D

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Briton Kirkland I have met a lot of interesting people

[@timthompson2172]

I really liked your video, keep up the good work though.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Tim Thompson thanks, will do

[@michellewells4603]

Kentucky girl here

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Michelle Wells welcome to the channel!

[@mickkae3704]

You go Loner Boner !!! Happy tracks ScoutMaster, good vids .. !!

[@fbnc11]

How are you feeling so far?

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

fbnc11 so far so good. It’s tough drinking and eating when it’s cold but you have to force it or else your energy stores deplete. Working on those trail legs.

[@GadgetsAdventures]

Lunch doesn't look to bad at all

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Gadget's Adventures lol. Definitely a good lunch.

[@jaysonbohnert6373]

Does anyone know Loner's real name or a webpage to follow him? I'd love to meet this guy as he's a fellow Hoosier inspiration! I like your videos, keep up the good work. Keep pushing north!

Hello Jayson. My dad, Loner Bohner, stayed at the Jenny Knob Shelter last night in VA. He's doing well and is in good spirits. He doesn't have a webpage. Thanks for your interest in his progress.

[@thomasmarguglio2120]

Janet what is the last update you have on your father? Me and my son are from jersey and are going to be doing a section hike thru northern pa this month!

[@_Bryant.R]

Anyone out there know if there's a way to keep up with Loner Boner's progress?

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]

Squid Hunter not sure. He took a zero the next day at Neel but has kept going last I heard

[@_Bryant.R]

Scoutmaster OnTheAT2018 thanks man, hope you're having a good day out there.

Hi. Loner Bohner arrived in Pearisburg, VA on 4-16-18. He's doing well and in great spirits. He does not have a web page. Thanks for taking an interest in his progress. Loner Bohner's daughter.

[@bennyvoncannon197]

Wow what dose one say. Loner Boner now bet he could chime in on pack weight gear etc.After you get home from Main bet you will have lots to say to. Really enjoying the videos your doing great.

[@ScoutmasterOnTheAT]
