Hiking the Appalachian Trail Movie Documentary - BikeHikeSafari

The complete movie length documentary about thru hiking the Appalachian Trail.
bikehikesafari...
Hiking the Appalachian Trail is one of the great long distance hiking trails of the world. I was lucky enough to complete the trail and film my experiences. From Bears to Rattlesnakes to getting kicked in the nuts by a wild pony, it's all here. Let's not forget the rain and snow, this is not an easy trail. Sections like Mahoosuc Notch are notorious for how hard they are, I just think it's fun.
My name is Brad, on the hiking trails I'm known as Shepherd.
Make sure you subscribe to this channel, more adventure travel videos are coming soon. I am bicycle touring around the world and thru hiking all the best hiking trails in the world.

[@johnnoullet4535]

Well done documentary! It's hard to crunch over 2000 miles into 1 hour but this documentary has managed to do it and I feel it's very well shot and edited. I did the Appalachian Trail in 2002 and it was nice to see all the familiar places again on this documentary. Thanks and looking forward to your next adventure!

[@steelydan2022]

I have watched dozens of AT thru-hike documentaries and this is, by far, one of the best I've seen. An impeccable production by one person and should have had way more views. Incredible job!

[@rogertalley7944]

The Fontana Dam area is where I have lived my whole life, being on the local Fire and Rescue department I have hiked and searched many miles in these hills, some with good results and some not so much. Be safe keep hiking and always remember to help keep our mountains beautiful by picking up trash. I say our because these mountains are a gift to us all no matter what part of the world you are from these mountains will protect, feed, astonish, as well as take your life. Hike on everyone, hike on!!

[@johnrouleau3372]

Incredible! I am hoping to hike the trail in 2022 and this is the coolest documentary I've seen. The fact that you share all that you're feeling makes it that much better.

This might be my favorite so far, story of a through hike. I think you did an amazing job putting together a compelling story in just over an hour. I just started studying up on the AT. You give a window, a vision to all the places I’ve been reading about. Thank you for the gift of this video.

JP JPJP did you hike the trail? How was it?

[@jpjpjp453]

@@notyouraccount9742 Was actually NOBO March 2018 when i had some serious knee issues after a few days and had to pull off. It was great while it lasted. 2019 got put off due to a work accident and physical rehab, and 2020 is cancelled due to COVID and family issues just days before i was heading to Georgia. As things are i might go again in 2021 but for sure will be absolutely set for 2022. In the meantime, i've switched out my big three gear and made serious changes to what smaller gear i'm using. Still deciding on doing the approach trail again up to Springer.

[@mjklucky13]

Great video, thank you. I don't think most viewers don't realize how much extra effort you had to put in to create all of the "hiking past" and time lapse shots. It probably added days to your thru-hike! I section hiked the entire AT over 41 years, and while I have some decent photos from my last 10 years of hiking, I have few videos. It was great to show some of my friends what it takes to cover some of the harder sections such as Wildcat, Goose Eye, Mahoosuc Notch and Katahdin. I also got to see some of the views from all the Maine summits that were socked in when I went through in 2012 & 2014! I hope you can safely continue your adventures. Best, Kerosene (GA+ME, 1973-2014)
