There's a Confession About Me In The Priest Shelter Logbook 😳 | Appalachian Trail Thru-Hike 2023

[@chrissaunders8284]

Do the locals pronounce it "byoona vista"? Seriously, I'm asking because I know you said you speak Spanish.

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

Yes! There were even signs in the ice cream shop explaining to pronounce it that way

[@chrissaunders8284]

Thank you. It would be funny if the locals were trolling tourists into saying it that way. Great content, I look forward to it every day.

[@bradb712]

Thank goodness I didn’t “correct” you incorrectly. 😊

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

@Chris Saunders I have family that lives in a buena vista (in a different state) too so I was already aware 😄 thanks!

[@GarethHampton]

That's how they [mis]pronounce Buena Vista, Colorado as well!

[@TXMEDRGR]

How can anyone troll a nice young lady like Taylor the Nahamsha Hiker? She is an inspiration.

[@ChrisJankowski]

I confess that I turn the volume down on my morning conference call so i can hear your video while I drink my morning coffee.

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

Haha!

[@stuartrollings602]

The Priest is a shelter and a Mt and a campground! Many people hike an camp at Crabtree Falls where several people have gotten too close to the edge or tired crossing the headwater too close to the falls and have met their maker. I have some crazy stories on thru hikers around there including one from Mass who hiked past us in the day and that night got hit by lightning in his tent . He ran back to us in the pitch black totally naked and almost got shot at our tent. We ended up taking him down to Waynesboro and he was admitted in to the hospital. Ended up staying at our house and we put him on a bus home the next day. Talked my brother into hiking up and getting his gear ( and ours) My wife has never tent camped since.(40yrs) Love the Priest!

[@angellovedove]

😂😂😂😂made my night❤

[@leedanielson7452]

Taylor the snake encounter at the end was hilarious!!!😂🐍

[@codyhikes4054]

“Do it, do the tongue” 🐍

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

I'm happy he listened!

[@soroushpoyanfar9480]

I confess that I started watching The Office recently (I know, too late) and only one joke comes to mind after reading your comment 😂

[@laineym2005]

I confess I thought that entry might be much worse, Lol. But I see how someone could get a crush on you! You're amazing!

[@YankeeWoodcraft]

When I go to confession, I stay in the confessional and they swap out the priests every hour for that Saturday. 😂

[@qsbroom]

So glad you are hiking with some peeps...20 miles today.....yep you got 'em back!

[@leedanielson7452]

Taylor, you are such a bright light in a sometimes dim world….😂❤👍🏔️🏕️🙏🏻

[@catblue6393]

Good confession. 👍🏼 The snake and the tongue thing was humorous. 😄 🚶‍♀️👍🏻🙂

[@wendygrw]

Great that you met some cool folks to hike and camp with for a few days as a small group. The priest shelter log book confession was delightful. Enjoying your videos.

[@StephenOutside]

Just discovered your videos, but I love them! Makes me want to hike the AT some day

[@MrMorton]

Taylor I confess that I wake up every morning and watch your adventures! 🙏 Hope you have a beautiful day 🌸

[@JohnsTinyWoodshop]

Was just at the Seely Woodworth shelter a month ago. A hiker had their tent set up inside the shelter. Had to camp on the side of the hill beyond the shelter

[@Elizabeth-pt4bv]

The confession was the best it could be considering it could be fa4 worse. You're doing amazing and making great miles, yet enjoying yourself. Thanks for sharing, especially your convo with the snake. 😊

[@daleaustin5701]

Loving the vlog! You look like you're on pace to meet your 120 day goal. Congrats. Gotta hand it to you, how you managed to have a snake, troll, priest with a book containing a passage about you in it, deteriorating weather and a conversation with a disembodied (off camera) voice at night with a red lit face without any horror spoofing is a testament of your positivity. Stay safe, positive and on pace!👻

[@LoudSkyAdventures]

I have been picking up momentum on hiking over the past year and a half. I watch lots of hiking videos and I enjoy your videos. I would love to hike the AT one day but 4-6 months away from family and job is a big one. Keep up the great hike! Sincerely, @Wild Oklahoman

[@kellyjohnson3617]

Good job on doing 20 miles. You clearly have your trail legs back now. And how cute was that snake 🐍 😆 thanks for including that. Made me giggle.😊

[@RickINFJ]

😂 The Priest Shelter logbook entry was hilarious. Glad you hit the shelter. We had a ton of rain last week (Maine). I haven't seen the Saco River that high in many years. Rest well ✌️

[@hdbinnc8583]

Thanks for the great video! The snake did not seem overly impressed with the media exposure 😊.

[@Chadginski]

Lord please forgive me because I ❤Taylor’s videos. Now I wanna hike the AT.

[@mathfan0918]

Great job!! The snake part at the end was soooo funny!

[@stevenvarner9806]

Fun episode! Such a beautiful snake.

[@denisebrown2940]

Just getting through each day is good. Hope the rain isn't too too bad.

[@terrancesalazar9062]

I confess ,you are so awesome with your videos🎉💯

[@iblamesummers]

Good morning, Taylor.

[@kenmachine9951]

You're confession should be ❤ you are 🎉 the best hiker 👍on trail😎 Ken NC

[@eddieb3328]

Enjoying your videos, I’m planning to hike the AT next year so taking notes. Safe treks to you!

[@cfdrescue]

Again!!! thanks so much for taking us along!

[@consciousmachine413]

I'm in MA and hoping to hike a few days this spring. Maybe I'll see you!!

[@dannythecamper4186]

Good video 😂with lots of good beautiful views, so let's keep on hiking 😊 with a little garden snake 😮

[@prescon13]

Love what you are doing Taylor. You inspire me. How are the new shoes compared to the old ones?

[@GarethHampton]

"Merry Christmas, sh!tter was closed!"

[@bettyjorodgers8552]

Thank you.

[@whallee99]

On your Food Lion comment... I work in the grocery biz. Food Lion and Hannaford are under the same parent company. I'm sure you are familiar with Hannaford. They share a lot of the same products, particularly among the private label (store) brands.

[@DeRocco21]

im playing along with hikeopoly!

[@Cypressbayou]

Enjoying your videos. Stay safe.

[@TheDcmcleod]

No troll here. Subscribed in 2020 after Frozen from Outdoor Adventures (AT 2019) posted hikers he was going to follow in 2020. I follow you until Covid forced you and many other off the trail then followed you in 2021 and now 2023. I have often thought that if I ever travel to the New England states (would love to go up the cog railroad) I was going to look for your gift shop.

[@deborahchadwick210]

Another super good vlog. Thank you!!

[@williamadair1260]

What tent are you using? My daughter and I are watching the videos. Great job

[@bradb712]

By the way NAHAMSHA, my family lives about 30 minutes from Harper’s Ferry if you get in a bind and need anything. Just ping here if you need something.

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

Thanks! I emailed you If it didn't go through you can try to email me [e-mail]

[@tophatbanjo]

Troll here! Well, I prefer the term 'remote admirer'... :)

[@juliamoon6562]

You're doing great ! You're one tough lady. With that said I would be very unwell if I ate like you do. I know it's not typically "ramen bombs" I guess I'm surprised how much unhealthy processed foods hikers consume from what I've been seeing on trail vlogs.

[@brookecampilongo3962]

Do the tongue! LOL!😂

[@ZayMay09]

Hi taylor! New to the channel and love following this hike! Quick question, what bag do you use to carry your food inside your pack? Thanks! ☺

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

Thanks! It's from hilltop packs

[@tommybewick]

Omg! Is survivor actually still on TV!?

[@frolege1]

8:04 - I swear Taylor it wasn’t me

[@frolege1]

@S. M. yes, I was 100s of miles away

[@jasonmillwood2893]

Great day!! Hope you stayed dry

[@Lovesracing19]

Looks like you had a good hike. Didn't like the snake. Hope you stayed dry. Safe travels.

[@RDadmaine]

Food Lion and Hannaford both are owned by the same parent company, Ahold Delhaize.

[@mhe8545]

Beautiful snake. From a distance.

[@tracielatham8415]

Hey, trolls CAN change, who knew?!!

[@geoffreymartin3520]

hi taylor, who do think is a contender to win survivor this year. what is the name of the survivor podcast. i have watched just about every seasonof survivor since the begginning. love your videos.

[@darrellhoward705]

Did that section at least 4 times, do not recall a logbook, after my time? (99-02)

[@PedroNord]

🦋

[@isabellakathleen3533]

Can you use a credit card for most on trail expenses? I can't imagine cash and coins would be convenient to carry.

[@jimhenderson387]

But really, why would anybody want to be a troll? This trolling thing really bothers me because it's sickening to see what complete strangers can say to and about another. I'm also impressed that you say the name of that town correctly. Most people would pronounce Buena differently from the town name.

[@llw8089]

You definitely have your hiking legs back! Glad to see it!

[@robertmorse3201]

Shelter still closed this year. Fun tyrna finda place to dig a hole. Bears everywhere.😋

[@debsmith7050]

You are fun 😅

[@kathleentognacci9358]

I confess your vlog was more interesting than the coronation 👑 this morning 🤴

[@johnsandell4501]

Taylor, do snakes effect you? I hate them. Enjoy your Nobo miles.

[@walterpaton8698]

What is yellow blaze??.

[@trail70brent]

All the trolls out there have just learned a lesson! Don’t be a troll, lol

[@frolege1]

First… and I’m about to go on my longer Saturday run afterwards

[@gregbeem9428]

Pretty Garter snake

[@JacqInTheWild]

Hi Taylor - enjoy your vlogs. I confess that every time you share your food, I cringe at how unhealthy it always is. 🙂

[@LynnStAubin-od5qe]

It’s all about calories. When you’re burning over 2500 a day and still managing to keep your weight stable, you must be doing something right even if it looks wrong.

[@kbking]

I am very overweight. Have you ever kept track of your weight and health?

[@brewerm1718]

Weird that people put so much effort into policing other hikers for their supposed wrong doing (mostly based off their own bias and insecurities). Like - hike your own hike. It's so simple. Admire you letting this stuff roll off your back.

[@daniellbrinneman]

Which snake is it?

[@deborahchadwick210]

Garter

[@wanderer418]

Snake is a snake to me I dont worry about what kind it is if he is close to me he goes to his eternal resting place.

[@wanderer418]

@S.M.I DO AS I PLEASE YOU UNDERSTAND

[@wanderer418]

@S. M. tend to your business or do you not have any so you in everybody elses. I aint got time for your BS getting right to put boat im river and dispose of some snakes

[@wanderer418]

@S. M. refrain from commenting to me again FINAL WARNING

[@walterpaton8698]

I troll you to get the store you and your mom run in Meriden N.H ??. Or Merideth. I am a March 2024 nobo. I will vidit the whitesthis summer. Hugs

[@TaylortheNahamshaHiker]

It's in gilford nh now

[@John572d4]

Whelp, ya can’t forget about religion I mean if you were baptized Catholic then so be it. Don’t know if anyone’s ever hiked the AT while still going to church every Sunday, not impossible except for probably parts of Maine and NH where said hiker would likely need transportation assistance as well as maybe interdenominational churches.

[@razzbazle1582]

Huh?

[@John572d4]

@S. M. It’s all there, the Order of Mass, the Gloria, the Penitential Act, all are welcome…

[@John572d4]

@S. M. Yeah well I already said interdenominational so you’re tending towards hypocrisy. And I’m no “mate”, you can use that word in your own country, it’s not respected here.

[@John572d4]

@S. M. Looks like you’re into begging the question, slandering statements by trying to make it look like someone has said stuff that they haven’t.

[@John572d4]

Hmm, according to SM if you ever edit a comment it means it’s tarnished, euh, that’s why people write rough drafts for research papers, dummy.

[@rickhaddix6847]

What's yellow blaze?
