Smart. Be safe.

Hi, Taylor. Happy Easter.

[@jamesgaffney7591]

Had a great experience ( and food) at mountain harbor inn Dave picked us up from the barn and gave us a break off the balds where we later returned. Beautiful. Section hike carvers gap to 19 e

Happy Easter ⛪

[@cynthiasmith4966]

Your comments about not having a hiking buddy- It would be fun to meet up with you and hike a stretch. Not sure how newbies would train for through hiking, especially at your long(er) distances. We are new to your vlogs and having fun following your progress along the virtual map of the AT on Google. Enjoy!

[@mrslauri60]

I watch because I like to watch hiking on the Appalachian trail, but I really enjoy seeing what you do in the towns. I would hike the same way. 👏🏻🥾

[@janetwheeler4210]

Thanks 🙏,

Hi Taylor, Discovered you channel about a week ago and all caught up. Enjoy it very much as I am a 62 year old wilderness walker. Have you ever read Bill Bryson's book when he does AT? Bought and read it twice, very good read. Read Wild when it first was out. Very good too. Didn't care for the movie. A recent coincidence, I never heard of those B Stinger Waffle treats until your video. Went into my local Publix and they were on half price rack. Bought a box. Tried it at home. Didn't care for them though. Love Dunkin too. Live in Florida but born and raised in Massachusetts. You take care and thanks for the videos!

cool place for a Zero day!

[@Gerry-K]

Nothing like a soggy Subway sandwich to start a day of hiking. Stay Safe!

You go girl 💪❤ Ken NC

We got literally blown off the Trail up there, rain soaking all our gear. As we came down from the Humps and dropped below the elevation, it was like someone switched off the weather. The winds were literally screaming up above us. It was astonishing how different it was away from the summits. You need time to rest, too. I think this is a smart choice.

[@tomt9543]

In 2015, my son and I decided to stay at Overmountain shelter because of forecast overnight bad weather. I’ve heard they’ve since torn it down, but it was a big very old barn on Yellow Mountain. The temps dropped from the upper 60’s to the upper 20’s, and I thought that barn was coming down , the winds shaking the entire structure and concerning the 30+ hikers that sought refuge there that night! We headed out nobo next morning in the 20’s, insane wind blowing, and extremely thick fog! Going over little hump, we had to use our hiking poles as braces to stay upright! I kept asking myself why I was doing this, but when we were in the gap between the humps, everything rapidly changed and we crossed Big Hump in warm, cloud and fog free conditions! That answered my question! Ha! It’s one of my fondest hiking memories!

[@alisondickinson]

I have always regretted not staying at Overmountian shelter, just because it looked so cool. We hiked the AT before cell phones and had NO idea the weather was so bad ahead. Like you, we huddled in the gap between the Humps and put on our rain gear there (because who knew?) and ate the only Moonpie I have ever had. Good times!

Hi Taylor ! Just contributed to Trail Magic Desk ! Love your channel!

[@codyhikes4054]

So jealous you took a zero at 19E. That place knows how to take care of hikers!

[@annajo1963]

Happy Easter!🐣

[@rangerinthewoods]

Happy Easter, Taylor

[@judithbrown3623]

Happy Easter! I love your necklace. Thanks for taking us along on your hike.

[@TrailoFire]

I swear you must know my wife. She always has 3 different drinks out at same time lol. But seriously another great video, thanks for sharing.

[@kathyt7344]

It was time to take a zero with so many miles under your feet and perfect timing with the storm!! 👍🏻🙏🏻. Thank you for the info on “desk trail magic” an awesome idea and I felt good knowing some thru hikers will get an unexpected surprise!! 🎉

[@jesswood1755]

Big love for your Easter sunday ...thanks for ur shares i truly look forward to them each morning ..

[@qsbroom]

Glad you are safe at 19E...Happy Easter!

[@andrewcarlson2955]

You’re crushing it! Enjoy the journey… going to never end and before you know it you’ll be climbing down from Mt. Kathdin…The hardest part will returning home with all the super powers that you developed within yourself while traveling alone but then realizing that no one else did while you were gone… always wanted to do the AT but getting older now (65) and just can’t… did ride a bicycle from Boston-Key West and Boston-California all solo and stealth camping most nights. You have a great life! Andrew

[@sharonepstein7568]

Hi Taylor.. my first time commenting, but I gave watched lots of your videos. It is especially nice during tax season to be able to see you each day. In May going to do the west highland way in scotland with a friend. Keep hiking. Thanks for all your info and videos. Sharon

[@debsmith7050]

Happy Easter Taylor 🐰

[@debbymarks9490]

Happy Easter...really enjoying "hiking the AT" with you!

[@Lovesracing19]

Happy Easter. Glad you took a zero to get some rest. Hope you don't have bad when you get back on trail. Safe travels.

[@treklinda1309]

This trail magic program sounds so cool. Happy Easter from England 🐣🐣🐣

[@1024Pete]

Happy 400(ish)! Subway! Awesome! Looks like you had a nice day. Good for you. Happy Trails!

[@spannymakronkeep8673]

Haha! One thing I don't miss about America are the dryer sheets. Every time I go back I'm surprised about how everyone smells like dryer sheets😂

[@harrymathis4743]

And fabric softeners aren’t good for wicking fabrics

[@frolege1]

Yeah, people think they smell nice but they really suck

[@paddlefaster]

I agree. I never use dryer sheets

[@bradb712]

You’ve accentuated why I love backpacking. It makes you appreciate things, all things, even, and especially, soggy Subway sandwiches.

[@johnwatkins9383]

Looks fun out there

[@johnsandell4501]

Nice to see a safety zero. Amazing how elevation changes weather conditions. 👍

[@AdventureswithTom]

Great job Taylor! stay well! I will keep watching your progress! I'm doing the trail Next year. Can't wait!

[@theecanmole]

1:17 the dude playing guitar and singing...he needed "more cowbell".

[@jeffingels4480]

That sogway sandwich looks awesome

[@knobbiehikes]

Your invited for a podcast! Sounds like search and rescue!

[@jessicasouthern3396]

I did it last time for a vet in memory of my brother

[@joolds-ruppel1846]

I’m surprised because they were not keen on shuttling when I was there.

[@trailfleamlangdon2260]

Hey Taylor, glad you got out of the bad weather. What is that red shirt you are wearing ? Thanks for bringing all of us along, enjoy your day.. Trail Flea,,,

[@BriBreeorSabrina]

Happy Easter! Our whole family watches your videos together every day and you’ve inspired us to get out into nature more often and go for longer hikes. Thanks for sharing your adventures!

[@jamicrawford6729]

Love the Hostel at 19E

[@stephaniepiet22]

Good for you taking a zero! Safety first always!!

[@ThanatosWings]

Have you seen Lighthouse?

[@larryosselborn9009]

I know you love hiking but safty comes first if you have to take a zero because of bad weather then that's what need to be done

[@leedanielson7452]

You go girl!!! You are awesome!!!❤👏🏻⛰️⛺️

[@PedroNord]

🦋

[@Crazy-s8s]

Very wise decision Ms Taylor Gotta stay safe as possible and with that many miles behind you You’ve definitely earned the zero Looked like fun and Happy Easter Take care and looking forward to your next video 🙏🏻😃

[@TXMEDRGR]

I'm glad you had a restful zero-day, thanks for sharing it with us.

[@Heath.Hikes.]

After reviewing your 2021 hike and this hike your new trail name is “snacks”…

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

Every hiker would have the name snacks then haha

[@Heath.Hikes.]

@@TaylortheNahamshaHiker 🤔 true 🤔. Stay safe on the trail…

[@BigCountryOutdoors325]

Maybe @Taylor The Nahamsha Hiker trail name should be sugar glider. Cuz she’s gliding along on all that sugar she eats. And sugar gliders are so cute and loveable. 😜

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

@@BigCountryOutdoors325 that's good! Lol

[@BigCountryOutdoors325]

@@TaylortheNahamshaHiker well then, I christen thee sugar glider. 🤣🤣

[@dbstewart4496]

That's one of the things I like about you...making those good decisions. 👍

[@MrsJoyism]

Sure, I sent some trail magic and mentioned your name.

[@gerard2620]

Good job Taylor and a well deserved ZERO Day !! Best of luck moving forward !!

[@jk-cj2ly]

Happy Easter, Taylor. My husband and I love watching your updates on TV every day after work. Everyone is rooting for you!

[@Cindyscrossstitch]

Happy Easter to all. The weather has been a little crazy lately. Glad you took a zero🌻👣I had no idea we could donate. Definitely made a contribution for the hikers.

[@aliencirkus192]

Taylor is a beauty queen

[@howardthiele6805]

Thanks!

[@gratefulhikes]

Hey Taylor! Good call with the zero, and Station at 19E is such a great spot. Thanks for the heads up on the trail magic opportunity. Such a great idea! I hope they get flooded with magic! How did you like the movie? Less or more than the book? 🙏 Thanks for bringing us along today. I hope tomorrow’s miles are kind. Keep truckin’ and be well. -Grateful

[@sha6mm]

I hope you stopped to see Laurel Falls.

[@mathfan0918]

You made a very wise decision to take a zero day to avoid 70 mph winds. My goodness! Oh, and Happy Easter to you!

[@padude131]

Wow, only your first zero! That's great! Happy Easter Taylor!!

[@larsharaldselvteitlnning2901]

Greetings from Norway! Smart move to take a break👍 It can be fun with stormy weather, but it's something else to sleep and hike 10-20miles in it! Enjoying ur videos😀 But not sure atm if it's good or bad for me mentally😅Currently recovering from ACL surgery so feeling pretty eager to get out there🙋‍♀ Maybe I will get to this trail someday, looks fun, but hard and kinda scary with snakes and bears😬 The venom snake we got usually are the young ones that don't know when to use it's venom, but have not heard of any deaths🤔 and the Wolfes Far East have-not killes anybody in 150years, so I guess our biggest fear is ticks😅 Hope you have a Wonderfull hike further on and eat a lot of snickers and Gatorades😃

[@steveadkins1888]

zero day with a subway what's not to like well earned, trail magic donation thing what a great idea but doesn't seem to work from the uk ?

[@RickINFJ]

A well-earned zero. Triple fisting coffee, Coke, and Gatorade. 😂 What an amazing trail magic program the hostel has! I gotta check it out.Thank you for mentioning it. ✌️

[@leendurwael4928]

you are doing very well in those weather. a pity you are on a hike with so much plastic ...
