Hike with Eagle Ike
Добавлен 14 июн 2021
Sequoia and High Sierra Trail 2024
Join my nephew and I as we backpack through sequoia groves and the first 15 miles of the High Sierra Trail in the third week of May 2024. We made it about a mile and 1000 feet above Hamilton Lake, where just past the tunnel we found we were not able to traverse the snowfield with just micro spikes and hiking poles. We backtracked and climbed up to Tamarack Lake where we saw a bald eagle and then adventured along trails out from Bear Paw Meadow. Camping at Hamilton Lake and Buck Creek were highlights.

I started the southern section of my flip-flop Appalachian Trail thru-hike at Rockfish gap near Waynesboro m,Virginia. The weather is very hot and the trail is fairly dry, but it has still been good hiking. I have seen four more black bear and two black rattlesnakes!

Had a wonderful day hiking the trails in Connecticut and Massachusetts. Along the way I received a lot of encouragement from my family and find some amazing Trail angels. Thankful. I am now one third the way through my thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail.
Two New States

Two new states. Two new friends. Four bear. Enjoyed hiking the states of New Jersey and New York with two new trail friends "Lifeguard" and "Spoon" Section 7 of my 2022 Appalachian Trail thru-hike. Started a second pair of trail shoes (Topo Ultraventure 2). The first pair lasted 450 miles. Also, decided to drop my stove and cooking set up which saved at least 10 ounces weight. All the dehydrate...
Rocksylvania!

Appalachian trail thru-hikers often call Pennsylvania "Rocksylvania" and for good reason. Most of us will destroy a perfectly good pair of hiking shoes in the process! Hope you enjoy.
Two young men

Dedicated to the young men I get to meet hiking. Recently, Adam “Cheers” a trail friend from the UK and my nephew Conner “Rocky Top, whoo!” An old man, going a lone highway, Came at the evening, cold and gray, To a chasm, vast and deep and wide, Through which was flowing a sullen tide. The old man crossed in the twilight dim- That sullen stream had no fears for him; But he turned, when he reach...

Leaving the Shenandoah, the next stretch of trail includes the Virginia roller coaster. For me the heat was more of a challenge than the cold weather days. Meeting a lots of great people out here.
Shenandoah

After my family returned home, I continued hiking in the Shenandoah. There were lots of challenges, including hiking in snow with temperatures down to 26° He reminded me that in life there are highlands and heartaches. Here is one of my favorite songs that speaks to that:  ruclips.net/video/mkbxP0rxt6E/видео.html

Thank you. This is in my view the better of the "whats in my pack" videos that I've seen. Tyvec shoe covers ordered. Pondering a Nitecore headlamp.

The pack on your back looks like someone shit in a condom

What a beautiful place. Thanks for sharing. New subscriber here
Good job
I do the same thing counter balancing with water bottles on the front. Honestly I think I could go for a running vest style pack someday. Love your setup!
I had a great time! Keep an eye out for those snakes!
First
Outstanding journey. God's grace & HIS majesty from the lowest insect to the highest mountain
Those views at the summit were 🔥
How do you get to your starting point to head south?
A friend drove me up and hiked with me. It worked out well.
Good idea to listen to the crew! Take your time and enjoy! Very proud of you!
Was thinking about you a couple days ago! Told you , you would love the White Mountains! Enjoy!
Beautiful picture s
George and I were talking last night that it had been awhile since your last video. Good to see you are doing good. Praying for your safety. Stay safe.
Hey Ike awesome video! We met at the Guyot Campsite, you were kind enough to take one of my extra tuna packets lightening my pack😉. I can't believe the ordeal with your raincoat and the caretaker forgetting it! I'm glad you got over the presidentials okay, I plan on doing the presidential traverse next week. Looking forward to your next video, good luck out there!
Thanks. Yes Guyot was a cool site.
I'm really enjoying the videos of your journey. I got concerned because your last update was 2 weeks ago. I prayed all last night for you and when I woke you this morning, you had an update. Praise God!!
Thanks for your prayers. That means a lot. You can also follow me at www.trailjournals.com/EagleIke/
Does your beautiful wife have a trail name, Eagle Ike?
You rock Eagle Ike!
Wonderful video footage and commentary, Eagle Ike!
I didn't realize Connecticut was so beautiful! Great footage, Eagle Ike!
I loved the salamanders and the water fall!
IMO, it seems to be the most consistently beautiful area you’ve hiked so far! Keep it up! PUDS… that’s a new one!
I’m catching up on the videos but would have to say 4… especially if it came with a half drunk Diet Coke!
What has been your greatest challenge?
It gets lonely. All of us hiking are on constant pain, especially the feet.
@@hikewitheagleike my prayers continue to go with you on this long journey.
Thanks for taking us along with you. We look forward to all your videos.
Thanks 'Mountain Man' for your trail magic kindness for my brother, Eagle Ike and other hikers!
We miss u. Hope u r enjoying. Be safe
We miss u
