I've consumed ALOT of thru-hiker content over the years, and done multiple long thru-hikes. This was impressive. I agree with probably 98 out of 100, was reminded of things I should refocus on and even learned a few new things. I will say though, my trail runners blew out like 80 miles from Canada on the PCT, and I, no joke, found a pair of 3.5 lb boots that fit perfectly under the table at my campsite. I used them the to finish the hike, and they were 90% as good as trail runners.

The hunger setting in later is so true- I went on a three week backpacking trip with 1 resupply (bad idea lol) and I ate almost nothing in the first week and a half so when I picked up my resupply I tossed a bunch of it in the hiker box because I figured I wouldn’t need it and from then on I had raging hiker hunger. Never making that mistake again 😅

@jcornell3 Жыл бұрын
I agree. I did the JMT last year (12 days) and didn't get hiker hunger. I must have tossed a quarter of my first 8 day carry and half of my food on the second carry. After a long day hiking, all I wanted to do was to curl up in my quilt rather than spend the effort to make dinner. Next time I'm going to be taking more town breaks to re-feed.

A very helpful collection of tips and tricks, well done!!! An additional advice: If you use Altras or other shoes with soft sole, be very careful when using a campfire to dry them. On our way down San Jacinto, near Fuller Ridge another hiker placed his Altras to close at the fire and one of the shoes shrinked by 1 Size (American Scale, more than 2 Sizes in European Scale), so he had to hike 20 miles and more than 6000 feet down the mountain from Fuller Ridge to MESA. When we reached the highway bridge near MESA his toe nails in the shrinked shoe were blackend and was in agonizing pain, so be careful while drying your shoes!!! A Tip: If you really wanna dry your shoes for more comfort, take a few sites of newspaper with you and put it in your shoes over night (not 100% effective, but better than destroy your shoes in the wilderness or on a mountain)

"Never quit on a rainy day" this reminded me of my first time on The Camino de Santiago, a hugo north atlantic storm hit Galicia and I decided to hike through it (after all there are towns and stops anywhere if it gets too dicy" fucked up the route and took the longest scenic one (not even regret it) I was pretty much alone on the trail with wind and rain trying to keep my bad dry. I didn't care if I got wet at some point and just used my poncho as a cover for my bag. It was a great day.

I carry apples, oranges and cucumbers on the first day after resupply that replaces water carry and still will be hydrated. If available I also power down like four bananas just before heading out on the trail. Fresh food is something I crave on trail. Znaturals is a company that has bulk dehydrated foods that have decent prices.... if you like to come up with own recipes. They have a dehydrated cashew milk that is great for coffee and tea and making meals creamy.

On very active hiking trails such as most thru-trails, there's so many people going through them, it matters less. If it was in an area where it's known that there's likely going to be people very rarely, not being able to hear noises can get your stuff ruined by not being able to do anything about it or get ya killed.

Alot of new hikers never did any research on the AT or there gear. Then they do a shake down of your pack at springer mountain, they find out. They think it's a trail going north to Maine. They don't know about those rocks that start getting bigger in PA. Some new hikers after a shake down feel so far down, they just grab there gear and go home. When I did it the first time. I was walking 10 miles a day, and within a month I was hiking 20+ miles a day. This last time doing it as a amputee I was hiking 10 miles a day. I was in no hurry to get wounds on my stump. But I was fit. But it's not a hike like at your local state park. Your going up then across and then down the mountain. I used the stair machine to walk up steps for hours. My leg was so strong I got on a leg press and pumped 400 pounds in sets of 10, did that 10 times every other day. Plus drinking alot of creatine and protein shakes. Then I bought a used pack and the rescue mission and put bricks in it and hiked the trails and our state parks close to my home. After all that, I did a thru hike of the Florida trail and tested my equipment. Everything worked great. Then once summer came my room mate drove me springer mountain.

Wearing wool keeps the whiff factor down. Also, a portable bidet like the culoclean keeps the fuzzy and scuzzy from getting ripe. Also can carry less tp. A tip with this in low water availability is to clean up with leaves and such and then do a bidet clean away from next water source.... otherwise there will be monkey butt. I still carry some tp. Anyway, ways to be less smelly.

Hiking Boots have been standard long journey footwear for hundreds if not thousands of years for a reason. Trail runners are certainly useable but your feet will thank you if you splurge on sturdy footwear. I can't imagine going hundreds of miles over sharp jagged rocks in the same trail runners, you'd have to get a new pair like every month or the soles would become useless for stopping the rocks from hurting your feet.

Don't change your trail runners for a pair you've never tried before. I saw people seriously jack up their feet and legs because they bought a different brand/model from what they had been using.

This killed my PCT SOBO attempt in 2019. My shoes were pretty worn out when I started and Washington pretty much destroyed them. I saw that everyone else was wearing Altra's, and I couldn't find a replacement pair for my La Sportiva's so I switched to the Altra's. By the time I got to Mt. Hood I'd developed plantar fasciitis and had to take the next 3 months to recover.

With regards to getting blisters while hiking, definitely take moleskin with you. I swear, on one of my first backpacking adventures, I got a blister on my heal. I thought I'd have to stop and limp back. However, my boyfriend gave me some moleskin for it, and wow, I could actually continue hiking comfortably.

Spotify offline is great for hiking. Sleep warm ,baby wipes for washing, my msr pocket rocket, foraging along the way,enjoy the journey instead of yomping to the next destination, leave early arrive late,take a day off,dry dead standing wood respect nature, leave no trace. And all the other tips what works for me.

Dude! I got to #16 and just HAD to comment! You're freaking nailing it! I thru hiked the AT in 2018 also, and 100% agree with what you've said so far. And I wish I'd seen this video in Feb 2018! Ok, going back to the vid now. Please don't fuck it up from here.

I just came back here to say (even before I saw your comment) that yes, you fucking nailed it, friend I've never met! Damn! It's like you've been keeping notes during your hike, which would be weird. But I seriously wish I'd had this video to prepare for my 2018 hike. Very well done.

Great content, as usual! This year, I’m hoping to thru hike the NET and the LT (again). I’ve also got a 24-hour thing to see how many miles I can do in continuous 3-mile loops around a NH lake, from 7 a.m. to 7 a.m.

Hiking my entire life - due to genetically fd up teeth, I’ve had full dentures since I was 35. At first, it was humiliating experience. As time progressed, I found there were many positives to having full teeth replacement. 1. No more pain. Thank you God that should be enough, but, 2. Cleaning is simple, especially when hiking. Not saying remove your teeth for a better experience 😂, just if you’re in my situation, I’ve found it to be an advantage. Don’t let you hold yourself back. Great video as always. Thanks

Great tips. Ill add #101 when hitchhiking take your wallet and phone out of pack and put in pockets. If you gotta bail as person is sketch at least you have funds and way to contact outside world.

What tips would you have for someone who finds electrolyte drinks of any kind vile to better choke them down. I'm a drink water all the time kinda gal to the point that I can count on my hands how much in a year I drink - which would be hot tea. I'm gearing up for doing a thru hike next year and definitely do not want to have pain or injury because I didn't replenish properly. Thank you!
