Finding LOVE on the APPALACHIAN TRAIL [& What Happens AFTER the Trail!]

[@AdventureGearTV]

That’s a classic wholesome love story. You take off on a long term challenge, and run into someone that can help push you through struggle. Shared struggle is one of the best ways to really know someone’s true character in the toughest moments. Congrats guys! From one vet to another, thank you for serving our nation. I’d love to hear more about your experience if you’re comfortable sharing it.

[@dougthebigdp314]

Great video! Lots of chemistry going on and I'm loving it. Also from one veteran to another, thanks for serving Smoke!

[@NorthToSouthChannel]

This is so sweet - thanks for sharing. And congratulations to you both for finding love doing something you are both passionate about. Enjoy the adventures!!! happy Valentines day.

Eeeeee I've been with my Appalachian trail partner for almost 3 years now. We're engaged and just a few weeks away from having our first baby. I am so excited to take this baby on trail this summer. I never thought I'd meet my person in the woods but here we are. The best and most secure relationship I've ever been in. Congratulations to you two!!!!

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Awww that’s awesome! Congrats!

[@michellegoodwin7760]

@@Remembering-rq6si interesting perspective. For me marriage isn't a big thing. We have a baby together and that ties us together for life for better or worse. He's extremely committed and I've never felt that he would leave or walk away. There's a lot of security in our relationship. We had a baby first because we're older and I didn't want to run out time to be a mom. It was absolutely planned and we worked on it for 14 months!!We can have a celebration and get married whenever. There's no time limit. We're already completely entwined. I'm not worried.

[@michellegoodwin7760]

@@Remembering-rq6si sorry seems like you have a lot going on. This is a different situation. He is over the moon in love with this baby and both of us are set on doing this together. Hope you're taking care of yourself.

Thanks a bunch!

😊 I love that you two found each other

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Thank you, we were very lucky!

[@amerphoto1]

I was just telling my wife about your video this week and that last week it was about your drone.... I guess we have a Smoke Master and now a Drone Master!

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

I’m not sure I qualify as a master yet after crashing my drone into that tree last time!! Haha! Thank you!

[@amerphoto1]

OK,...How about "Crash Master?"@@BeerinBeautifulPlaces

[@amerphoto1]

@@BeerinBeautifulPlaces…OK, how about “Crash Master?”

Lololololing at the bloopers! Hahaha!!!

[@williamwadejr5302]

It was a pleasant bonus!

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Exactly!!

[@gabriele1975]

Oh my goodness! You two are adorable!!!!!

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

You are so kind!

[@elynnm3016]

I kinda feel like pink blazing is changing your hiking miles and plan and not actually creepily following someone you like. At least I hope so 😅

[@johnniejustjohnnie]

I love this so much. Will Smoke be going on your next adventure with you? You both are invited back to High Point Park and to my house anytime you'd like to come.

[@blairpoisson6474]

Lmao! The bloopers 😂😂😂

[@ClairenParkerontheRoad]

Sweet video Maddie!

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Thank you! 😊

[@larryoutdoor]

Maddy if you get into a food fight with smoke master use Peas. Because we need to give Peas a chance.✌😂😅

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Hahaha!

[@LauraMichellez]

Curling, 😅

[@taix371]

I wonder what percentage of people who went hiking on the A-T met their next best friend

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Oh yeah, good question!

[@SophieBeaudoin-l2s]

It’s the lack of deodorant: you get the basic animal attraction happening…

[@jarr1520]

Well I've just spent 22:42 watching a guy play with his hair....👎

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Our goal was to have an informal conversation with the viewer as if they were our friend, not to be delivering information as if we were on the news or something! Sorry that wasn’t what you were looking for!

[@LynnStAubin-od5qe]

I’m 67 and my husband is 71. I enjoyed seeing Smoke play with his hair. It brought back memories of the 70’s when my husband had hair 😉

[@jarr1520]

Well I did watch all your AT videos and subsequent ones and enjoyed them....and I intend to continue....might however skip parts that involve excessive hair play .....😊

[@jarr1520]

​@@LynnStAubin-od5qewell I'm in my mid-80's, what's the relationship

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Haha fair enough!@@jarr1520

[@BUY_YOUTUB_VIEWS_g0g97]

KZbin would be so boring without your videos

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Haha I don’t know about that!

[@amerphoto1]

I think what Smoke Master said is very true, that on the trail you are with a stranger, talking with them about anything...you form a bond. A bond is an important part to base love off of. I remember when you two officially made the announcement you two were a couple, I wrote to Maddie telling Smoke Master...."You make sure you take care of that sweet girl!" I guess he has!

[@TheOnly1v1cashappme]

I Kept my word!

[@amerphoto1]

You’re a good man Smoke! Take care of that sweetie!

[@sheilahenry7279]

He fell in that chair & you ask if he’s okay as you dip that beer & surely don’t spill a drop 😂😂😂❤

[@cherylbrunette2490]

Love your bloopers, Smokemaster cracked me up rolling and falling out of the chair😂

[@MarisolsAdventures]

So happy for you Maddie and your whole experience on the trail.

[@jeepmom7x890]

Happy Valentines Day, Smoke and Ranger! ❤ Thanks for sharing the insight into your relationship and telling us more about your AT experience. Love the kitty! Congrats on your new home and pet together!

[@inarichards7554]

Gotta love them rolling swivel chairs 😂lmao “curling”

[@Kari-bb3rm]

Wow. That is true. Seeing how ppl act in the raw wilderness is awesome to see how their true characteristics are. Great to see you two!! I was hoping yall would do a video like this...❤❤

[@db.mc2]

Happy Valentines Day Maddie & Smoke 👊🏻👍🏻 Have a wonderful day 🙏🏻God Bless Appreciate you!

[@Elizabeth-pt4bv]

This was so great, and the bloopers are always so funny. The one thing to ask is, are you both working and how was that transition from the trail? You mentioned that you don't see each other as much bc of your work. But how was it transitioning back? Can't wait to see what's next. Thanks for the updates

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

I work on videos and social media stuff full time, and smoke has a more traditional job in a store. Because I work for myself, I have more flexibility and it’s another thing that we imagine most new couples would have a harder time with than we did. But it’s still hard to some degree!

[@blairpoisson6474]

Congratulations on making it thru the trail together and transitioning back to civilization together.

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Thanks!

[@joesoutdoorplaces]

I’m very happy for you two. It seems y’all are made for each other. Happy Valentines Day.

[@frolege1]

When did you guys get together ? How many miles in ? Did you start a 1 tent routine at some point?

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

We made it official on a zero day in New York City, after leaving from Pawling, NY. I would guess maybe around Mile 1500. Sometimes when we were lazy we’d cram into one one-person tent but that was rarely a good night of sleep

[@katfish000]

Enjoy this valentines day 💛 that was fun

[@BeerinBeautifulPlaces]

Thank you! You enjoy your day too!

Good looking couple ! ❤ hey smoke : you were in the military? Should we be thanking you for your service 🫡?
