Ouachita Trail / Solo Thruhike

[@jbro4779]

Excellent video! Very well done and informative. Thanks, so much.

[@ArkansasOffroad]

So freaking awesome man. This is gives me a whole new perspective of being in the woods. Even though I’m in it frequently, this seems so much more intimate. Congrats on completing it man. That’s a massive accomplishment. Extremely impressive.

[@naturallandfishing7328]

[@gradynorton6061]

Great video!

[@jwarren9248]

Saw you on Hot Springs Broadcast Network tonight. Very impressive hike! The train and on-going ice was concerning. Nice job!!

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

Thanks so much for checking it out!

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

Also, where can I find that video??

[@jwarren9248]

Google Hot Springs Broadcast Network, it's on Facebook and your video is about the third story portrayed, I believe. The man who has that site is John Cooksey.

[@michaelmarsh7687]

Great work on the video!! Awesome thruhike

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

Thanks man!

[@DannyRiskit]

Awesome video, gives me an idea of what to look forward to when I do it (hopefully next year). That train made me nervous!

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

Glad you liked it! That train started to move within a couple minutes of me crawling under it! 😵

[@DannyRiskit]

Thanks Todd!

[@penelopepoppers]

Yay! I watched this while sitting at Big Bear Shelter!

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

Stoked you got to check it out! Your videos inspired me to start making videos. Also, Big Bear Shelter freaking rules!

[@SailingAround]

My favorite shelter on the OT!

[@jonathanmarshall9101]

Nice Video, You are more Parks and recreation than Josh and I.

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

I taught Josh everything he knows!

[@tlinrin887]

Wow you picked one of the worst winters to go for a hike. But who would have guessed.

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

The weather held out until the last two days but the snow added an element of fun and excitement that I'll never forget! If it would have hit any sooner I'm not sure I would have been able to complete the hike.

[@mistyreed4558]

Such a great video!! Where do you leave your car when you start a hike like this? I’m thinking of doing this trail with a friend and leaving one car at the start and ending at Queen Wilhelmina (where we’d park the other car). Any advice for us?

[@SaimonThapa]

hello, what gps device to use to go through the trails?

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

I used an app that most long distance hikers use called FarOut but it used to be called Guthook

[@Mountian-Zen]

👍👍

[@jordanhurst2058]

I love the vibe of this video. Super enjoyed the watch . What time of ear did u start? I plan on attempting ot next month Thanks for the video

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

Thanks so much! The OT is amazing. You're going to love hiking it. I did this in late Feb of 2020! It was cold but I love winter hiking

[@HikerTrashHusbands]

Nice!

[@whatsup3270]

How did you miss that winter storm?

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

I got so lucky! I finished the trail the day before the majority of the snow hit Little Rock!

[@Raveler1]

Thanks for this video! I'm starting to scout out the Ouachita as a test thru-hike, similar to what you did. Did you need to cache water anywhere along the way? I appreciate your filming and hiking at the same time - looking forward to seeing more when you get back out there!

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]

Thanks so much! I did not cache any water but there is a 26 mile dry stretch between foran gap shelter and big brushy creek. People often cache in between those points but I chose to hike through it in one push.

[@renastreetman602]

😍

[@abarron390]

Would you be willing to message me so I could ask you a few questions?

[@davisnorwoodphotography9295]
