The John Muir Trail in 17 Days (2015)

[@Mountian-Zen]

Wow ladies..... TY very much. I enjoyed watching your journey. I did the JMT in 1974 and again last year 2018, I am so motivated after watching this. I will be doing it again end of July 2019. Good job congrats to both f you.

[@thomasclark6268]

Really enjoyed the video, soundtrack, commentary, and all. I particularly liked the time-laps with the headlights going up to Whitney...just great!

[@kjwerder]

I've watched plenty of videos about this hike and this one, is by far, my favorite! My wife and I really enjoyed it and we laughed right along with you guys. You two are rock stars! Beautiful editing

[@meganpetruccelli]

Thanks! We had a blast!

[@davesanders9203]

Clearly you two had way TOOOO much FUN! Well done video.

[@DaytakTV]

What an incredible video! So many wonderful and creative shots. I really enjoyed it. Thank you for making this and sharing your adventure! :)

[@programsunlimited]

Keeping a sense of humor AND a sense of adventure is a gift. It made me happy to watch your video!

[@michaelhenderson9039]

Nice video! One note, its best to wash 200 feet from lakes and streams, even with biodegradable soap, to minimize impact on wildlife, and in consideration of other hikers who will draw drinking water from that source.

[@MrDCentertainment]

you guys have you shit together. I was going to be pretty disappointed if there wasn't some whiskey on a backpacking trip =P I can't wait till I get a chance to hike this incredible trail

[@sdreefsurf]

Wow, you ladies freakin’ charged! Love the smiles and funny commentary! Those were seriously some happy trails! Your photography is awesome! Love the time lapses!

[@gregall2178]

Great video. You ladies kicked butt, doing Glen and Forester in one day. btw, if nobody mentioned it, it is Grouse Meadow ;-)

[@professorsogol5824]

When did you do this? I'm curious because your photos of Mt Huxley (from Evolution Lake) show no snow in the couloir on the north side, but in August, 1970 (or so, I don't remember the year), when I climbed it, it was full of snow.

[@meganpetruccelli]

August 2015

[@romenhiking8623]

What was the date you started the JMTA in 2015?

[@chazmanager]

Wow. Amazing video and amazing effort out here. You crushed some big mile days.

[@patriciamoscato6586]

Is there a way out into town for a zero

[@MovinOnBob]

What a great, upbeat, and fun video. I have two friends that giggle all the time on the trail. You two reminded me of them. I trailnamed them the giggle girls. Great job, you made it look easy. Ya, that trip down was long, I didn't feel the need to take many pictures afterwards myself.

[@blakemiller138]

Really enjoyed your trip. Loved the music selection.

[@TaintedMango]

Incredible scenery! Thanks for sharing.

[@johnmartin5257]

Love this video, great job. But I really like is the fact that you remind us all that while hiking the JMT is certainly challenging it is meant to be fun also! You guys show us how to have fun and I thank you for that! Great job 😃👊🏼. We had out at the end of July 2019 heading northbound from Cottonwood Pass. My goal is to have fun like you did!

[@rocketdog4539]

Simply fantastic - thank you!

[@dork1963]

Awesome video !!! When did you do this ? I didnt see any snow on the passes

[@patriciamoscato6586]

What size is your pack

[@mcspin50]

Well done! Both the hike and the video!

[@pabloprezip8856]

How did you charge your camera batteries?

[@flashbarsflashcubes8384]

Sitting at camp, just set the beers in the sand by the creek, wait a couple hours and they will be nice and cold!

[@1800marwin]

I can’t wait to do this trek with my sister :) Did you use a GoPro for the nightlapses? If so, how many hours did you run it for?

[@ScubaBlonde]

What solar charger did you use and how did you like it? I tried to check out your gear list but it just goes straight to lighterpack and not your personalized list.

[@grega.4556]

What is the music at 33:00? Congratulations to you both. And yeah, good blister!

[@pirolas001]

HIGHS - Summer Dress :)

[@RowdysMommy74]

Awesome vid! What is the song at 15.14 it's driving me nuts I can't figure it out lol!

[@phillipedwards6484]

[@ThisWayfaringLife]

Really enjoyed your video...great job!

[@robevans3291]

Which camera did you do your astrophotography on and what were the settings please? Cheers.

[@meganpetruccelli]

Sony RX100 iii with the lens wide open.

[@greatthings4US]

Great Video. Awesome trip! You girls ROCK. Question...? Would you do it again?

[@meganpetruccelli]

ABSOLUTELY!

[@chrissine6589]

Awesome video , congrats to both of you . 😊

[@owltune5496]

Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.

[@winkhvac62]

[@Embracestardumb]

How much was shot on the Sony?

[@meganpetruccelli]

All the shots that are out of focus :-) and the night photography. Probably 15%

[@williamkatzer4967]

What camp chair is that anyone?

[@meganpetruccelli]

Alite

[@shevaroo1470]

Really enjoyed your video--looks like you had a good time. I kept wanting to try and somehow reach out and encourage you to lighten up some of your gear while I was watching. Did you have a kitchen sink in your pack somewhere?? Just joking of course--anyway looks a trip you will alway remember. Thanks so much for the video--best wishes.

[@jfriend00]

Your itinerary link is busted so we can't see the itinerary.

[@daveinstlouis7296]

You 2 are so Cute... I'm hitting the trail this Sept. How many zero days did you all have?

[@lrose711]

Great video, very fun! This is on my bucket list...did you carry food for all 17 days or did you resupply anywhere? I see you caught fish at times but to carry food for 17 days would be crazy heavy...just curious since this is something I'd like to do in the next few years. Thanks for sharing your adventure!

[@mumblic]

I don't think its possible to carry food for 17 days ;-)) Nice overview can be found here: www.pcta.org/discover-the-trail/john-muir-trail/jmt-resupply/ Everybody's approach is different by the way!!

[@lrose711]

Yes, I didn't think it was possible LOL! Thankyou for the link...greatly appreciated!

[@meganpetruccelli]

We resupplied 2 times. Once in Toulomne, so day 2, so we hiked out of the Valley with barely an food, then resupplied at MTR with 7 days worth of food.

[@Jeff-tk3nd]

It frustrates me seeing tents being set up on grass and too close to water. LNT please

[@nofeesh]

Tenkara fishing, that's great.

[@canalfishing4622]

you two are awesome !!!

[@SuperKaloyan]

Amazing!!

[@maxncathy44]
