Frozen, I don’t know if you will ever see this but ever since I was a young boy, I have always wanted to go on a backpacking trip. Life happened and I never perused that dream. After watching your videos over the past 6 months, I have been learning and buying gear. I will now be fulfilling that dream this weekend, hiking a 3 day 2 night on the laurel highlands hiking trail. You have inspired me to peruse this and I can’t thank you enough. I also live outside of Pittsburgh and I hope to one day meet you. Bryan

My Wife's Grand Father worked in the Shawnee Park for close to 25 years. He retired when he was 70. When he was almost 75 we went camping with him. I was only 25 and my wife 21. He walked our butts into the dirt on those trails. LOL We where fit but not as tough as he was. He teased us for years after that. He said that he felt that very late fall or early winter and early spring was when the Park is the prettiest.

Hey Frozen...Just recently started hiking. Never did before, until I watched your AT Journey Thru Hike vid. Truly inspired me. Wife and I now hike a local trail (just 2.5 - 3 miles) 4 to 5 times a week (mainly for exercise) and sometimes do day hikes on weekends. No overnights YET. 😉. I hope to retire within the next couple of yrs or so and have set a goal for myself to do the AT. Your vid was one of the first to spark my interest. Wife says I’m obsessed with it now!! Enjoying watching others’ daily vlogs who are on the AT now, like your buddy Wild. Please keep the videos coming, because you are indeed inspiring people! Thanks!!!

It is nice to see you out on trips and making videos again. One thing to consider on your conversion to becoming a ground dweller is you don't have to give up your hammock. Switch out the underquilt with your sleeping pad. Now you can use your hammock/tarp/sleeping pad as a hybrid system. It is not ideal, but it works. Sleep on the ground if there are no trees, or hang if you can't find a level spot to sleep on the ground. I pretty much use my tarps exclusively, which I really like because they are waterproof and I feel more connected to the outside than being in a stinkin, leakin, tent.

Nice to see you back out on the trail... joining us solo weekend warriors 😂 I followed you on the AT the whole way it was epic.... that’s a bummer that the tent leaked .. that’s an expensive tent you’d think they would put a dab of seam sealer on those stitched pads specially at that taut point at the top . Another summer pad you might consider is the Rikki Tikki pad from amazon ( stupid name I know) cheaper, lighter and quieter than the tensor it is one of the most comfortable pads I’ve ever used... again great to see you back on the trail .... 👍👍

I'd like to see your footage. I was supposed to be in Rothrock State forest that weekend but because of the hurricane it was thunderstorms, hail and significant downpours. Because we were going to be exposed on the ridge a fair portion we bailed. Great to see a video from you!

I am currently shopping for the necessities. I am working on conditioning myself both physically and mentally. I'm stoked!! You do a great job. Your stories are interesting and informative. I live in West Virginia and my immediate goal is to start off with some DAY hikes, overnight hikes and then the 3 night 4 day hikes in the Mon Forest. I've watched EVERY episode.

Its fun seeing someone do a trail I'm at a couple times a year. The wilderness section is also a fun part to tack on, and actually the connector trail (ie what you'd use if you only did the north, or only did the south loops) has some fun parts. I'm surprised you had such big condensation issues at camp 5 as well, that usually the one condensation free camp there, at least for me.

When I first started backpacking some 15 years ago, Shawnee was my first multi-day. It nearly killed me! I don’t recommend it for a novice, but it sure is pretty.

Wow. You’re a fast hiker. I don’t think I even walk that fast on a sidewalk! 😂

If I was going to take somebody new to hiking whom I didn’t like, this is where I would take them. Shawnee is a ball buster. Rainy, hot, and humid it seems regardless spring, summer and fall. Plus they cut the trails with Bobcats sometimes leaving a trail strewn with ankle twisting rocks. Little to no switchbacks and poor trail routing as far as ups and downs go. All that being said, if you’re a true backpacker, the misery of Shawnee holds a special place in your hiking heart. Lol

Can't lie the gear nerd in me fast forwards to camp setups in alot of the videos I watch.. if I've seen the area they are hiking in before in other videos the camp setup is different for alot of channels most of the time...i might have to try a tensor pad myself...great video dude..

It's really comfy. I'd recommend the wide for the average size man. I'm short and skinny.
