You showed your character and he showed his. I think we know who shines.

There are no words to describe how I feel about this beautifully done documentary. Let me just say that I am sure I will watch it many times over for inspiration, for the scenery and even for a good cry. Your KZfaq family loves you, Beulah. Thank you for sharing your story.

I’m glad you hung in there kid. You were a bright spot for me driving my big rig across the country last year. Thank you and don’t lose that smile.

Beulah, my husband and I followed you every step of the way from Georgia to Maine, and I loved this beautiful documentary. I’m so glad you’ve made a fresh start! And I’m still so disgusted that your ex poisoned your triumphant finish to the trail. As you hinted, I have to believe that your intuition told you something was wrong, and that’s part of why you felt so sad after NY. Anyway, I wish you the very best out of life! If you ever want to try the Allegheny Trail in WV, my husband Stormy Weather (Jim) and I would be happy to shuttle you and provide a serene spot for zero days. Please don’t be a stranger to KZfaq! You have brought joy to so many people through your videos. I’m rooting for you!

For almost 2,200 miles, you had your sights on Katahdin. After all the struggles and triumphs, you reached Baxter State Park. After your world fell apart, you went to Mama K. As you touched the sign, Mama K provided the setting where you rose as a queen. No one can ever take that away from you. Beautiful documentary. We love and support you. #ATStrong

Back then, I was SO FURIOUS with him for waiting until your big moment to do this! Why it couldn't have waited one more day??? His loss...I am so happy to see you doing much better now. The world is your oyster. Loved the documentary. Have you thought about doing another trail sometime? If so, we'll be here! Love you!

I think you were less than a week into your hike when I found your videos. I was sad for you each time you found yourself hiking alone, worried about the rain in New England, and cried when you summited. You grabbed my heart like you have many people that you never will know. You have done something many people will never do. That kind of positive energy is too powerful for weak men.

As long as you might want to share your path forward, girl, we would be honored to tag along and to continue supporting your channel. Heck, there are supporters on here who would gladly host you for a walkabout their towns and countryside. You could continue the documentary as a testament to the strength we give one another. Who knows, you may just find your forever love within the journey🌺🌷🌺

Your last few moments of your hike were the most powerful for me. I needed to make a decision in my life and you have given me the answer I have been so longing for, I need the AT,.March of 2025 I will do my best to complete the AT. Thank you!! I needed this more than you will know.

Cheers to the most jovial hiker to complete the AT! 😊 May you continue to heal BB. Take every ounce of your power back and let it be a beacon to the new things you will surely conquer. Beautiful documentary! ✌️

Bad Bat is back! You were missed!

Oh Beulah! This is the most beautiful documentary on the internet! The memories you brought back to me were joyous! Your sense of humor and wit is endless and you are a KZfaq Icon, one of the best! You will find happiness again. You say you are not a lyricus or song writer? Wrong! That was absolutely beautiful as it comes from your heart, and you have a beautiful voice, and you should pursue this to the music industry. It is a winner! WE ALL LOVE YOU BEULAH...NEVER FORGET THAT!

Before commenting, I had to get up and walk around after your documentary. I am so proud of you and have followed throughout your hike. So proud that you did not let him take control. You finished your hike like the strong determined woman you are. I love how real you are and I think over 5,000 followers see that too. We have your back. Take care and fly bad bat!

Great film BadBats, you caught the essence of what doing something extraordinary actually means to the person doing it. I watched your videos late, well after you finished, in blocks. I saw the change in you, the maturity develop, the ability to cope with whatever life threw at you come to the surface. I know it was hard for you, but losing trail friends and yet carrying on and finding new people to connect to is an invaluable life lesson. One that will hold you in good stead now. I can't help but feel that the whole of your journey was actually preparing you for the betrayal. You have something now that is entirely yours, something to build on. The kind and helpful people on trail plus your followers on here wish you the best, weigh that up against the actions of one jealous person who acted selfishly.

What a fantastic documentary! You were my absolute favorite hiker last year, and I watched every episode from the very beginning. I laughed and cried with you and never had a moment's doubt that you would make it, even in an atrocious weather year. I was stunned, STUNNED, by the events at the end. I can't imagine what you have been through. But you are so strong, and nothing can take away your accomplishment and your pure joy. Best of luck to you. Please let us know your next adventure. I know there are so many good things in your future.

Yes I agree , she can hide her emotions well , but I suspected something tho , HES A REAL SOB

That was an absolutely beautiful documentary. I watched your whole AT journey as it was happening, having no idea what you were going through, although as I watched your two attempts to climb Kathadin, I felt that something was wrong. I have been through the kind of heartbreak you experienced, and I know, as you do too, that life is stronger than betrayal. You have a bright, bright future.

This was fantastic. I’ve been following you since you were on the trail on day one and my heart broke for you many times along the way. I hate to see you alone when you needed somebody. I hated what he did to you and thought how dare he tried to steal your victory. But you proved him wrong and the people that betrayed you. You are a true champion and I’ve said this on some of your previous videos, and I mean this, you are a true champion and a wonderful human being. You have a KZfaq trail family standing by your side. We love you, Beulah, a.k.a. bad ass bad bat.🦇❤ Kevin

Oh my!! Crying as I write. This I’m so sorry for your betrayal and cruelty u endured. U are a strong woman and I pray for your strength and health. I watched your AT hike from the beginning. Thanx for taking us along.

Bad Bat, you are truly an inspiration!!!This is by far the best AT documentary on the internet!!! Your journey has prepared you for anything you might face in life!! Remember Romans 8:28 KJV "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose." Your best days are ahead. Don't waste time looking back. You have a bright future ahead of you. You are extremely artistic and talented. My wife , daughter and myself watched every episode of your journey and now your documentary. You are absolutely the Queen of the Appalachian Trail. We would love to meet you if you are ever in North Georgia. God Bless you Bad Bat!!🙏🙏

Yay - nice to see us mentioned! We so loved having you, Bad Bat! Awesome documentary!! -- Chica

I love your documentary! I love the beginning, the middle and the end. You did something that so many would not want to do. At the end, all I can say, being older, is that getting rid of a loser who tells you what's up when you are at your most challenging part of the AT is better than spending years with him. He will end up miserable and making the people around him miserable. I would say to you, countinue to travel. I am not a thru hiker but I did hike the last 100 miles of the Camino de Santiago, in Spain I met so many people from everywhere. It was an amazing adventure. I wish for you many more adventures on whatever trail you choose.

Beulah, a wonderful documentary! I truly wonder how many folks you inspired to hike the AT or do any thru hike for that matter…? I have to say something and please know I don’t know how YOU feel, only you know that, but please may I offer some hard learned advice? I too know a thing or two about that gut wrenching pain. The kind where the world suddenly shifts, tilts on its axis. You rack your brain trying to figure out what you did wrong, signs you missed, etc. Then you realize, although there is always room for improvement - that betrayal…? That is a BIG soul issue in them and there isn’t a THING you could have done to stop it. I can promise you that is something only God can heal in them. Bc ultimately that is a heart issue you had nothing to do with. Now - it may take some time - but do me a favor. Don’t become bitter. Look for the blessings in what has changed - focus and think on the good. When you start to hurt or feel pain - allow it, and then do like Christ said and take your thoughts captive. You can’t control what pops in your head, but you can control whether you mull it over or change your minds direction. It will get better over time, and yeah, you may have hiccups too. But set your jaw like flint, do not let the evil and the pain win. Do not. And although it seems cruel, and totally unfair - be patient. Stay kind, stay happy - you for sure have some battle scars now, but you are so dang much tougher than you ever knew. You completed the AT! That takes some grit girl! When it rained, when your body hurt, when you puked your guts out in a hotel. You got up and you kept going. Why? Because THAT is who you are! You are an amazing athlete, person, friend, woman. What people do to us does NOT define us. How we scrape ourselves off the ground and how we decide to treat others does. Be the change you wish to see in the world. And remember darkness doesn’t like the light. And you my friend…well you are of the light! Love and prayers - so so proud of you. And P.S. you are one seriously bad bat!!!!❤

This was incredibly well put together, thank you for watching the premiere with us. And of course for sharing your special AT journey. You are awesome!!! Go Bad Bat!!!

BadBat!! This was a professional quality cinematic masterpiece! I was expecting just a compilation of the daily vlogs, but you turned this thing into a beautiful piece of art. My heart was heavy the closer you got to Katahdin, knowing what was coming. You showed incredible restraint and composure in the summit day video - I think I would have pushed him off the mountain. But it seems like making this documentary really helped you reclaim your story and process your achievement, and I'm so happy for that. Remember these promises: "When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up." Psalm 27:10 "God setteth the solitary in families...." Psalm 68:6a We're your KZfaq family and are happy to support you in whatever ways we can. And I'm so glad you're getting back out there doing trail magic and rediscovering community on the AT. Prayers & best wishes, Bad Bat!

Pig Pen, Vegas and Globetrotter all returned to the internet in Pat Townsend's thru-hike videos, of course Pig Pen had her own vlog. Vegas even posted in the "announcement" thought he might have shown up for this chat. Always loved the scene w/BB and Pigpen twirling their trekking poles. Kind of amazed she caught up with Fresh Grounds six times, and all the times thru-hikers showed up in each other's videos. Gabby, Pig-pen, Taylor traded episodes and I think North Star summitted the day after BB although not mentioned.

I just want to say how proud I am of you!! I was following your journey and was devastated to see it spoiled for you at the end. Good for you for changing the narrative to reflect YOUR accomplishment!! Having your heart broken and finding the strength in yourself to keep moving forward. What you lost was worth losing, what you are gaining can never be taken away!! Loved your song and your new attitude, you are empowering others along with yourself. Keep it pushing Beulah, you are a true survivor!!

Beautiful video! So well done. The actress you had play you in this film looks exactly like you, lol. Congratulations on a film we'll done! This one will be in the books for future thru hikers to watch for years to come.

You are one special young lady, my dear! There's no way that a kind, sweet, wonderful person like you doesn't find someone to love once again. This was incredible and I wish you nothing but the best, because the best is what you deserve! NQU

Great film! As I’ve grown older I’ve come to understand that the key to happiness and fulfillment in this long, weird trip we’re each on-together and alone-is weaving and savoring a tapestry of hope, moments, and memories. This film reflects a beautiful part of yours, and I’m sure you’ll return to its living subject often for joy, resilience, and understanding. A job very well done, and a dream truly fulfilled. Thanks for sharing. Bravo!

You are absolutely amazing, Beulah…what a beautiful and skillfully made film. Watching this in 1.5 hours brought back memories of watching you hike day by day last year. It was always a joy to share your positive view of this journey. Even in those darkest days before you and Irish began hiking together, there was no doubt that you would reach Mount K! You are a special young woman, made for much more than what you had before this experience. I look forward to following your future adventures. As it turns out, I see that you have actually moved to my hometown…yay for us! Since childhood, I have enjoyed plays through our community theatre, and I am delighted that you will share your talent with this special part of the state. What a delight it will be for this white haired educator to run into you on our streets sometime. Welcome, welcome!

Watching your documentary took me back to the trail .... Little did I know the ending would take me back to such a similar place/ feeling. While on trail stuck in Hot Springs in 2018 healing from an injury, I found my husband of 17 years was cheating(and had been for quite some time). This eventually took me off trail to sort my and our three children's lives. I too lost many friends and a feeling of belonging in my neighborhood, a town we had also built our home and set down roots. I share all this because I feel it is important to know we are never alone and that we are often more seen than we could fathom. I also share to give you peace in a deep knowing that there ARE no accidents. You were on trail to deepen your self love, resilience, passion for life, determination, confidence and resolve. Some people cannot hold our power. They cannot shrink their ego to handle our capacity to do big things while they are small. Still, we get to rise and be who we were intended to be, drawing those near to us who understand our spirit. I will also share that the past 6 years have been the most beautiful years of my life- traveling, healing, growing as and individual, being an example to others. YOU walked a path for 2200 miles that breaks many. It is a testament to your power and proof of the beauty that is to come in your one, amazing life. I send you so much love and so much light. YOU ARE WORTHY of ALL your heart can imagine and wish for. Like the Roller Coaster in VA.....life has so many ups and downs. The one thing we know is that if we hang on during the downs, life will surly take us back up. Best wishes, only always.

Loved it! So professional! Beulah/Bad Bat, you are an amazing woman. Your strength of character shines throughout this incredible journey on the Appalachian Trail. I trust that you will find all that you hope for as you walk on. Love and prayers. PrayerWalker 2013. 💕🙏

I'm not very good with words, Bad Bat, but this documentary was so well done, and it made me cry. The ending was indeed bittersweet. It's as if you sensed what was coming when you felt depressed in New Hampshire, but your spirit continued to shine, and you never gave up your determination and your positive, can-do attitude. I cried watching you summit. I also felt so angry at him on your behalf. I thought to myself, how could he do this to you on what should have been one of the happiest days of your life? I am so sorry this happened to you. BUT you accomplished something few ever do: You are a thru-hiker, and your life going forward will be filled with many blessings, I just know it. You are such a great person and have so much to offer the world. God bless you and Happy Trails!

Oh BB. We watch this documentary weeks before we begin our thru hike attempt. This was so good!! We’ve been following you since your prep videos for the AT, then every video throughout your journey. Thank you for taking us along. We learned so much and absolutely adore you. You inspired us! We wish you the very best and hope to see more of your adventures. 💙

Thank you for sharing both your trail and personal journey. As you are so intimately aware both the trail and life have much in common. A day at a time, sometimes a footstep, but you are moving forward. You are not along. God bless. Tod, in Idaho

So Achingly beautiful , Beulah. I followed along the whole way, but this documentary… Just Wow! You’re a talented storyteller. I think you’ve unearthed another talent! I second others in saying that you should write a book. Even better, put it on audible! I thought it at the time on your vlog, and I’m more convinced now…I think it was divine timing that the “news” hit before your summit. Your summit was you. Just you. The summit was the first of many great things awaiting you after that moment. I can’t wait to see the amazing things you’ll do next! Keep soaring Bat Bat! 🦇🌄💖

You made me cry Bad Bat.....but I thank you for this. I watched your video updates live since you were in the Smokeys. Damn, lots of memories since then. Thank you for bringing this full circle. Happy trails my friend!

Love your sound effects and hootin and hollering

Hi badbat!! I loved this documentary!! Awesome!! Watching from THE GREEN DRAGON 🐉 HOSTEL the day before I enter North Carolina on my thru hike!!! One state down tomorrow!! You were an inspiration to me as I prepared for this!!! You are such a blessing to all AT Hikers!!

Bad bat, what a beautiful documentary! I watched you as you trekked the trail and appreciated your vulnerability and authenticity. As for what happened at the end…..his timing was VERY selfish and mean. Having been through it myself after 28 yrs of marriage, I feel your pain. Just know that you have inspired so many and are loved. I am slowly section hiking the AT partially because of my divorce. I find it therapeutic and where I’ve found my faith again. Girl, you made it to your mountain! ❤

You rocked this Beula!! You accomplish so much and inspire so many! Here's to your future hikes and finding overwhelming happiness.!

Great job Badbat. I thru hiked in 2022 and followed some of your journey in 2023. I’m disappointed I missed you while I was out doing trail magic. You are such an incredible strong and brave person. What an awful way to be treated in life in general and particularly at the end of your hike which was supposed to be a great day of celebration. I loved the way you have turned the negative into the positive person you are. Your story will turn out to be a great inspiration to others. Thank you for sharing!!!

To You Beulah, Beautifully done!! Your video(s) and your completion of the AT are all your's. Best of luck in the future in everything you set your mind and heart to achieve! Thanks for all the enjoyment you brought to your YT family.

Omg my wife is crying the good tears right now. Keep your head up and we are so happy that you kept your head up and took back your victory! Keep hiking we will see you on the trail!!

Terrific job! So glad you're back, and in a better place. Stay strong!

So well done! Thank you for sharing how STRONG you are in so many ways!!

You did a wonderful job with this - fully capturing all the ups and downs of the adventure, and coming out victorious in the end! Loved the closing song. Did you write it? ❤❤

OK I laughed and I cried...😂😢 Thanks girl, it was great!👍 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

You are beautiful inside and out and I loved following your AT journey last year. I hope that in the big picture of life this will be a blessing.

I followed you while you were on trail, and I love this documentary you have created. I hopeful for 2027. You seem to over ride all the suck of the AT and exude all the awesome emotion of it. You're an overcomer.

That was so amazing ! Thank you for sharing your story with us. The ups and the downs, the tribulations and the triumphs, the real and the raw. Geogia to Maine, never the same. No one can take that from you. It was such a pleasure meeting you during your journey. Keep doing you ! ❤

What an incredible film Beulah! This may be the best film I've ever seen about a thru hike. You made me laugh all over again with your insane sense of humor, reminding me of the first times that I saw these scenes. You made me cry at points when you thought that you couldn't go on. Such an emotional but triumphant part of your life. Bad Bat, you are a thru hiker. You did your time, you overcame adversity and the pretty smile I witnessed from Georgia to Maine constantly showed that you never gave up. Through all the adversity, you stayed the course. I am so proud of you! We've never met but you are a soul that I'll never forget. Thank you for letting me enjoy your hike for the six months that you were a Pixie in the woods, entertaining the world as you became stronger every day. I will miss you! Live safe, Live strong, Have fun! geek

Your documentary was amazing ! You captured your journey beautifully! I loved your honesty ! I shared your ups and downs and tears along side of you ! Thank you for sharing your adventure with all of us and let you know that you are loved by so many ! ❤

I'm not crying, just some dirt in my eye. Such a well done epic adventure chronicle. I am happy how you expunged that cheating turd from your memories of trail. Your song and this documentary must have been so very hard to put together emotionally but your spirit and grit shine through with out overshining the fact that you are a good and kind person. Best of luck in your future.

Awesome. Thank you. May your future be filled with new adventures.

Thank you very much. You are a wonderful person. The song, your song made me think of Helen Reddy song " I am woman". Yes, you are very strong. Please keep us (your followers) informed. We love you. The four tops sang a song "reach out I'll be there". Change that to "We will be there" . Bad Bat , we are loyal followers all the way. Looking forward for your next video. God bless you 🙏

Your documentary was AMAZING! You are a THRU HiKER of the AT! Something I dream of doing someday! You are going to do great things and meet great people and establish something better than before! I ❤❤❤your song! Best Wishes Bad Bat!

A great story well told, your tragedy at the end is also your freedom. You stood alone on Katahdin, your story told, your accomplishment by you. Well done and whilst the pain is real, your strength is now greater. Lots of love from a dumb old Aussie who hopes that everything good in this world you deserve, you get.

WOW! I have no words after that. I am truly sorry the end was so hard for you. You are a true leader. I can see you always leading others after you have had to deal with so much. People will respect you for your strength to overcome! I enjoyed watching your AT journey. It was better than most we see. The trail gives you what you need......I am David Christian 3rd, I would be lucky to be your friend on facebook. You go girl!

I am so sorry that you had to go through such a horrible time at such a beautiful time. I really enjoyed watching your journey last year. This documentary brought a whole new meaning to your AT thru hike. Thank you for sharing such a personal journey, hope this helps in your healing process. I am planning on hiking the AT in 2025, and I'll be bringing the tradition of "border booze", along with my thru hike attempt. You have been very inspirational for me.

Hi Beulah, I just found this and want you to know that I have tremendous respect for you. The fortitude and courage it took for you to accomplish your goal is astounding to me. I’ll be praying that God shows you His plan for your life. Your journey blessed & encouraged me greatly.

I am so excited that you are back. I start my hike in a week and I loved watching your journey. Getting ready to watch you doc.

Can’t wait!

What a great documentary. You proved your strength out there on the trail, and he proved his weakness. You need him like a moose needs a hatrack. I am so sorry for your pain, but the day will come when you realize this was the best thing that ever happened to you. If that is who he is, it is good you know now so you can find someone deserving of you. What a small, small man he is. What a powerful woman you are.

Wow! Bravo and we'll done. I followed your videos through last summer. I'm sorry for what you've been through. So much going on at one time. I hope you're in a good place mentally.

My wife and I followed you all the way thru on "Your Hike" on the AT. You was strong and enduring during the times faced on the AT. Strong young lady and many would have quit when faced what you endured !! Your Smile and Never Quit Attitude was Gold !! Words can never express what you experienced but you showed courage to take it on and survive. Your path is clear now..Enjoy IT !! We Loved You ! Best Documentary I've seen in years .

Your best production thus far. Professionally illustrated, and well versed. Woo, woo, woo, woo, woo! Social. 😊

Wow Bad Bat, 14,000 views in only 6 days! Thrilled for you to have this recognition for what must have taken many many hours to put together. It’s a wonderful documentary for AT & all hikers of the present, past and future to enjoy.

Beautifully done and wonderful song! My husband and I followed your hike last year. He is 78 and I am 76. I always wanted to do the AT but never got the chance. Thanks for taking us along. ❤

This was absolutely wonderful! Very well done. Thank you, and congratulations on an amazing hike!

BAAAAAAD BAAAAAAATTT! Oh my gosh, we missed you so much!!! I hope you got all my post-trail happy holiday messages: Happy Halloween, Happy Thanksgiving, Merry Christmas, Happy New Year, etc. I was not about to lose touch even if you were no longer posting. I wanted you to know that wherever life was taking you, your digital tramily cared about you. I've thought about you so much over the months, too ("I wonder what BadBat is doing right now?") Not kidding! You are so loved. It was an honor to "hike" with you on KZfaq. Love going back down Memory Lane in your documentary. Ok, I better get back to watching it. I dove right into the video but then I just HAD to stop at the half way point and say, "Hey!" 👋 I'll hop back on to this reply when I'm done. Once again you have lifted my spirits. Thank you, Double-B! 🦇💚🥾🥾💚SOCIAL!!!! 🤣🥃 Woo-Hoo! 🌲🌲🌲 PART 2: Oh my gosh, Bad Bat. I watched the 2nd half and the last segment was extraordinary. Thank you, SO MUCH, for taking your MOMENT & POWER BACK. When I followed you during the original hike, I was SO ANGRY at what "he-who-shall-not-be-named" had done to you that I wanted to jump through the camera and hunt him down. I was SOUL-CRUSHED FOR YOU. It was so painful to watch knowing what was happening that I can't even imagine how it felt. HORRIFIC is the word that comes to mind. I was very worried all through the months afterwards, too. Where will she go? What will she do? Is she okay? How can we help? So, to see you rise like a Phoenix from the ashes to create YOUR REAL ending to the AT was like the Balm of Gilead. I loved it. Love, Love, LOVED it. YOURS is the real story. And, your song was fantastic!!! I'm serious, it was so COOL. I was just grinning & crying & grinning & crying... You DID it BadBat. You conquered the trail and the mountain and without the AT, who knows what would have happened? By, the 2200nd mile, you had become a WARRIOR. A dyed-in-the-wool, BONAFIDE WARRIOR. And, no sick-a** disease of a failed man was gonna bring you down. I am deeply sorry for your losses, it's true. They are terrible losses. Terrible. But, now here you stand as a beacon for the rest of us. Those of us struggling with mental health (me), and all who suffer in a myriad of ways in this world. Now, when people ask me who my idol is, I can say unequivocally, "Well, that's easy... BadBat!" And, I ain't lying. I feared we'd never see you again after the AT and here you are... Brilliant. Upbeat. Positive. Accomplished. The documentary was UH-MAZE-ING. Really, really good. Such a treat for those of us who followed you on the og AT. I esp. loved the montage at the end of your feet walking on the different trail surfaces. That was BRILLIANT. So proud of you. SO, SO PROUD! BadBat in the HOWWWWZZZ! We love you! 💚🌲🦇🥾🦯⬆️

Beautiful lady, beautiful smile, beautiful heart ❤️ You are incredible. This documentary was incredible. LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE 🌞

You are so cool! So great! Victory is yours! WOO!

I've been through this myself. Not on a trail but I've been pooped on. The trails saved me from insanity. The older I get (46) the more I realize my happiness is my responsibility, no one else's. Nobody on Earth will ever tarnish my shine again. Keep trucking sister.

great to see you again

Don't look at it as loss. You grew in a different direction. Some people are secure enough to love and follow you but some are afraid to move and have to be left behind. I enjoyed sharing your journey and feeling your positivity. You are the destination that some lucky person is going to stumble upon. That person will love the person you have become.

I literally cried watching this beautiful documentary you created for us. My husband of 7 years also left me for someone I once considered a friend, without any warning, so I could relate. You are a brave soul! I have nothing but admiration and respect for you. I hope one day I have the courage and determination you had during your AT hike, to be able to attempt and complete my through hike of the AT that I keep dreaming about. Sending love ❤

Enjoyed this very much.. congratulations on your accomplishment and the best of luck moving forward!

I am absolutely speechless. You Should be so proud of yourself. Obviously from your completion of AT but this inspiring beautiful documentary. You convinced me last year to stop waiting for someone to hike with me and just start. Now I am officially a section hiker because of YOU! You are stronger and more powerful than you give yourself credit for. You are a force all your own. NO ONE CAN EVER TAKE THAT AWAY FROM YOU. Be well and hope to have the pleasure of hiking along side you.❤Kim

Such a beautiful summary of your hike and easy to understand for anyone that’s not familiar with the AT! So proud of you, you’re so strong and you know you can achieve anything!

There I was on Instagram and saw my favorite AT hiker! The one I always watched on KZfaq! I ran right over to watch this! You had become part of my every day and I was so bummed for you and all of us how 2023 ended! I am so pleased that the tough-stuff in you has prevailed and we have you back!!! You are so insightful, smart and talented. I was hoping you were announcing you were hiking again 😆 I hope you landed in New England with kind, smart and interesting people surrounding you. I’m glad you are now realizing how strong and cool you are. You outgrew your old life- keep going- there is a better man out there waiting for you. Enjoy the journey!!!

Incredible job on the documentary. Loved your heart through all the ups and downs and looking forward to seeing more smiles again! It's never easy to start over, but you are strong enough to do it!

What a beautiful adventure Beulah!! I just recently found your page but I remember watching Nahamsha’s hike and your meeting…I feel very much compelled to go back and watch your adventure unfold…thank you for sharing the tough times on trail and letting your enthusiasm and excitement push you on the hardest of days!!

Oh BB i am so sorry i missed the premier! I am so looking forward to this. I hope the new journeys in your life are amazing and fulfilling. You are such an inspiration.

I watched every single vlog last year and enjoyed watching your journey so much. Thank you for including not just the fun times but also the hard/sad times. Beautiful work on the documentary Bad Bat! I can't wait to see where your future in thru-hiking takes you.

Great job putting this documentary together. Loved the song at the end. We followed you during your hike. I’ve thought of you often over the past months and prayed for you and hoped you were okay. The universe has something bigger and better in store for you. Hugs.

I just finished watching all of your videos of your thruhike and was looking for the summit video so i just fast forwarded to the end of this to see it and i'm so sorry that happened to you right before you finished. its so unfair. But you're amazing and i'm so happy you made it! I hope you're doing well

I remember this ending of your trip and was so angry. So angry. Your song is beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I can’t wait to watch the miles you traverse in your future. You’re gonna make it

So awesome! This was beautifully done and brought back all the memories of watching your journey. Thank you for sharing!

I followed your whole adventure last year. It started a lot of days off for me. Coffee and the Bat. Thanks for taking us along. Thanks to you, I'll never walk into a grocery store without exclaiming. Let's party 🎉 . Stay strong, get out there, and remember time heals all wounds. Hope to see more adventures! Happy Trails 👣 Thanks again! It was great.

Well done! What a roller coaster of emotions on the last day. I feel for you. The absolute worst timing and horrible communication someone could do. But to know you can walk 2200 miles is empowering, and that probably scared his selfish ego. Onward to better things! Proud of you and thankful for you sharing your journey.

welcome back I loved this documentary. I hope with each passing day you feel better. You are such a beautiful person and you deserve better than what he was. When you least expect it you will find your perfect person. Happy Trails and I hope to see more content from your adventures.

Great vid! Thanks! You'll do well! Very glad you decided to take us on your journey!

This was beautiful. It was so nice revisiting your travels. The song at the end was great. I cried for you and myself. Thank you!!😢❤

Very moving, also sad, but powerful! I watched all the ads just for you...hope it helps! Mostly I hope making this film was therapeutic. Glad you didn't let him or her off the hook at the end. Those of us who watched you through your hike remember him, and this is his public legacy. Now keep the adventure going! Hang in there! Hope you make it to Europe (again?) someday. My favorite line from you in the film (perhaps paraphrased) was: "We're doing it! We're doing it though! We're doing it!" Keep doing it!

i followed your hike on utube and just fell in love with your ability to authentically convey your story. Thrilled when you finished and devastated by your husband's selfishness and incredible poor timing! i am so happy you made this recap video as part of your self reclamation! keep going Bad Bat! the world needs more of you! thank you for sharing -- i am confident that you made an impact in many a life out there.

So excited! This is going to be amazing!!

This is a fantastic video. Editing and your narrative are excellent. Content flows well and stays interesting. Very good job

Loved it! So glad you are healing. ❤
