Appalachian Trail | Mistakes Were Made | Hightop Mountain

[@sbliss1019]

You two are awesome! It is times like these that show how great couple works things out! I tried camping in a tent. Last time there was a terrible thunderstorm and we ended up sleeping in our car. We then bought a camper we tow. And we love it! Kudos to both of and Skippy!

Nothing will test a relationship like camping or full-time RVing. We have our moments but always come out ok. Plus I snagged one heck of a keeper, some how I got her fooled 🤣🤣 ~Matt

[@stevejoda1053]

I'm glad you all were able to get out there. You have much to learn and it gets more rewarding every trip. If you ever come to Colorado and want advice for the real wilderness, let me know.

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Next summer we will be there!

[@shaneb4839]

Been on the AT a couple times. You guys are troopers. No one ever has a perfect trip the first time. It gets better each time after.

[@floridahermit4874]

You guys put out some of the most entertaining videos on KZbin! Keep them coming.

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Thanks!! Much appreciated.

One of the best watch i have seen from the Appalachian Trail! I did Smile when i seen a 4 season tent i was like wow! That tent has to weight around 10 pounds?! Ouch.. :) This was a fun watch!!! I Might give the AT a go again next year ? Your Dog is an Angel! He loves both of you! I have to admit i did tear up after watching this, seeing smiles is hard to find when all i see, when i am out is people with mask on.. Blessing to all here..

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Tent is around ten pounds plus polls lol.. defiantly kicked out but was worth it. Hopefully next time our sleeping pads stay inflated and we can actually get some sleep. All in all it was a great trip and motivation to do it again. Thanks for watching!!

[@matthewsalive3964]

Great first effort- I hope you do it again and again

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Thanks for watching, this is just the start.

[@sherriweber7105]

That was an adventure! Nice view on top too bad you weren’t comfortable sleeping especially on a mat like that not inflated. Thank you fir this video. Stay safe and travel safe.

[@sherrivaldez2306]

I love you dog!!🥰He rocks!!

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

We think so too!!

[@ancientone3040]

You both have great spouses. True Love.

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Thank you!!

[@sherriweber7105]

That’s a great idea. Hopefully you won’t forget to put it in the Jeep. Lol😊

[@francesattridge1904]

OMG I remember when Steven and I did this shit. enjoy these times. We did some oh no's two but had fun at the same time.

[@sherriweber7105]

What was the chance you would forget bug spray again? You too are so funny!

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Always forget the big spray!! We need to keep one in the Jeep.

[@baileylayne6054]

The AT is my love. 💕💕 call me before you do overnight again and try to do 30lb bags next time.

[@ElkinsEric]

Just curious but what type of loctite do you use on you hardware? Medium or high strength? Blue or red? The key to using loctite is to make sure a everything is clean and degreased. Brake cleaner or even alcohol will clean the the threads of the bolts and threaded holes greatly. Then let air dry and then apply the loctite. Not trying to sound condescending, and hope I don’t come across like that. Sub’d

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Sorry it took so long to get back to you, your comment just showed up on our end. I use Blue loctite, the red hold to well and the set screw will strip trying to make adjustments. My foot will come loose when I push the limits of it no matter what I use, its just the nature of it. and you came off fine it was a good question and comment. I am sure others who see it will learn from it.

[@ElkinsEric]

@@AdaptiveHumanity have you tried VIBRA-tire? We use it on the set screws for our ripsaws at work that spin at 15k rpm for 20 hours a day. It holds as good as high strength loctite but allows adjustments like the medium strength formula. Just a thought and I hope it helps.

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

@@ElkinsEric Never heard of it,I am looking it up now!! Thanks for the info I will see if I can order some and give it a try.

[@ElkinsEric]

Man I carry Monsters when hiking. One per day. I’m willing to take the weight penalty just to keep from being an a-hole to my fellow people...lol Edit: I always take one of my Great Danes with me too. Dogs are great hiking companions and they keep ya warm at night. Edit Edit: I’ve never had good luck with the inflatable sleeping pads. I use the closed cell foam pads and really sleep great.

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

I ended up putting 2 in my bag 🤣

[@ElkinsEric]

@@AdaptiveHumanity gotta keep the caffeine levels up...lol

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

@@ElkinsEric for sure!!! 🤣

[@aaronnye4486]

Great video. if y'all are still around and want to go again my fiance and I would love some camping partners

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Man we have already left! That is awesome of you to offer, we would have loved that. We are doing all of the national parks in the country so if you guys are ever up for a road trip let us know!

[@Siggyroka]

Sounds like you have a winner of a wife

[@AdaptiveHumanity]

Yes sir!! Lucky guy here.
