Day 175: One last blue blaze (AT ThruHike 2024)

[@tomellis3218]

Sass, you are so close and you have shown me what I do want to experience and I’m old but if I hike my own hike get lucky and find a tramily who hiked like me and is supportive of each other I might , might just have the best adventure of my life. And then I could let you buy me a cup of coffee and tell you my life story. On to Katahdin … ❤😊

Hi Sass, WOW! less than 100 miles left. You should be very proud of your accomplishment. I have enjoyed following your journey. Thank you for allowing us to experience it with you. Be safe and happy hiking.

[@marilynm5024]

Congratulations on your milestone!!!!! 100 miles left. You are a great inspiration!!!

Must feel surreal to be so close to the end. Amazing. And I approve of your decision, hike your hike, it's about the experience. I'm thinking you must be either finished or very close in real time. Wish you all the best.

I would have been thinking the same thing "I walked this far?!?!?" That and trying to deal with the stomach butterflies lol. FWIW, you've made it look easy, I know there were some not so easy parts but have loved your attitude and smiles. Kodak moment in 100

I struggled with Sawyer water filters for YEARS, and they always had issues. Never liked them. Finally switched over to Katadyn Water Filters and had zero issues.

[@dannythecamper4186]

Great job over 2100 and less than 90 miles to go, good video with some views, so let's keep on hiking 😊, no moose 😮

[@johnwalker4642]

I stopped using water filters in the New Hampshire mountain forests.

The squirrel was probably gathering nesting material

[@sheilabishop-cn6ey]

So exciting, I am so excited to see your ending.

[@kmichaelp4508]

Who hikes 2100 miles? Those that have the time, money, love of outdoors, healthy, no obligations to hold them down. And the rest of us can just watch and dream. 😆

Some people divest themselves of responsibilities in order to do it. Dixie of Homemade Wanderlust was a successful engineer, then decided she wanted to enjoy life while she was still young, quit her job, cashed out her 401k, and hit the trail. Not saying I'd recommend that course of action, but it is a way to go

[@lindal986]

Blue blaze FTW! Just cool.

[@dennisk905]

Congratulations 2100 miles. What a journey thanks for sharing

[@cori207]

I’ve been trying to figure out when you might summit. The weather has been so overcast and dreary this week and was really hoping you had the beautiful views that Katahdin has to offer. Either way this Mainer has so enjoyed following you.

[@jamesadams2334]

"Who hikes 2100 miles? There're so many other things to do!".....................................Yes, but the important ones all involve hiking! You are at an impossible spot of your hike. The smile is so big, and you are so happy yet when you see a mile marker of how little is left, the sadness is visible in your eyes. It' the hardest place to be on the hike. Let your mind wander, the hard decisions that you have made these past 6 months and realize, they were some of the easiest decisions of your life. From this point on, make all of your decisions based on what you have learned these past 6 months. Your life will be great. geek

Outside of any plastic, that plane is biodegradable. I mean, it'll take 300 years but, technically....lol.

[@ethelip5239]

You’ve seen more this year than most people see in a lifetime..
