Gee... You guys keep talking about doctors... I guess it's because you never looked after yourself...

2 years late to the party but finally had a chance to do a binge watch thru this Florida Trail series. Great hike and congratulations!

Hyaluronic acid and cortisone got me by until I finally replaced my knee. It's my better knee now. I used to take all the hard steps with my right leg to coddle my bad knee.

It was nice to meet you today. I look forward to viewing your adventure

Hahaha PT my brother! Noticed this video about a "2018 thru" and I thought, hey, I'll check this out and see if I recognize the guy...

You’re my favorite RUclipsr! 😊

Ah, the privilege of being "apolitical"... 🙄

Very informative, thank you! I would add that people who hike with dogs should keep them leashed. Annoying to have a pooch sniffing around you when preparing dinner, or being aggressive!

Trekking poles are great for one's back also.

Wheres the great dane?

The whole set of rules was basically about respecting people privacy

Hello 👋 my outdoors friend, greetings from Northern California. Sincere thanks for sharing this most informative video. You shared some great pointers. Stay safe out there. 🤗 👋

Tracking polls would be okay for a hike like that for a young guy

Hey brother enjoyed your video It’s exactly what I was looking for. I am a recently retired LEO from Central Florida and have been bitten by the hiking bug. I have been hiking parts of the Florida and Appalachian Trail, one or two day trips and I have come to the realization that hiking alone can be dangerous. I am looking for a partner/group to hike with in the area and thought you might know some contacts. Thanks Gil.

Man.. I would like to attempt this but I’m legit too scared. What happens when a cotton mouth bites you when you’re in the middle of Bradwell Bay? Any bear signs or sightings?

So as a smoker is it in essence Don’t hike the AT? I’m a very very respectful smoker but I have found anti-smokers go out of their way to walk on the fringe near me just to jump on to me for smoking or do the huge fake cough spell when they have to go out of their way to come over near me. As I said I’m very respectful and get as far from others as I can. I guess what I’m saying is I’ve met many rude disrespectful “preachy” type non smokers. Proper etiquette both directions!!!

Try full spectrum CBD

These are rules for life in general anyone with good upbringing would do all these things. No one should have to be told these rules they should already know.

I'm not a hiker at all. I will probably never walk the AT. However, your points for the trail are unwritten rules for life in general. It's called respect. Very well-spoken man! It's how we treat others in everyday life.

It was so nice hiking with you through this section. Great videos! I'm finishing up the Florida Trail November 1st going SOBO this time. ☺️

LOL, this video is so old. It is now rayciss to insist on headphones.

congrats!!!!!

Pretty damn good. I would have caught my ass on that barbwire for sure.

Damn this soundtrack is legit!

I love the desert. It's my jam. Lot of people don't care for it, but New Mexico and Arizona for me is beautiful.

Hi. I appreciate your thoughts on this subject. I can't argue with checking with the doctor, but I admit I won't be doing that. I will be 70 in December (2022) and have been section-hiking the trail since Feb. 1992. I'm at Caledonia State Park in PA. I strongly agree with the use of poles, especially those that have cushioned handles. I'll add this: I've remained active my entire adult life, walking 5 or more times daily, doing frequent day hikes, and visiting the weight room 2-3 times per week (light weights, more reps). I think continual conditioning is important for all, regardless of hiking. For me, it helps me from becoming an old man... God Bless all!

If you have been playing around the Econ for a long time you have to remember the old suspension bridge across it. It would swing left and right as you walked across those two planks placed side by side and suspended with the wires. My understanding is that new bridge was built for horses and mountain bikes to cross over the river. The best thing is it stops any air boats from going further up the river. Leaving the upper parts for canoes and the such. A long time ago ( early 70's ) I paddled from Highway 50 to the St Johns on the Econ and filmed it. Two nights & three days since I took my time.

Tootoosahatchee creek in Tosohatchee Wilderness Management Area. Yep , wet feet there is nothing new. Camping over night you will hear a lot of Owls taking back and forth during the night . Been messing around this area from there to the Wekiva River since 1952. Main playground is the Econlockhatchee River. The Little Big Econ area that's now the Florida Trail. Walked/camped that part of the trail before it was a trail and still do. lol

Agreed my first hike I stopped a lady asking about a shelter she brought politics into my question had nothing to do with politics I absolutely hate politics anyway she continued to bring it up got sick of hearing it so I just walked off

For some folks, our hiker midnight is 8 😴

Every time I watch a thru-hiker summit Katahdin I shed a tear or two. I feel y'all's emotions and I am super impressed with that amazing accomplishment. Great job. April 5 2022 xx

To summarize-avoid all people while on the trail. 😆

Have you submitted any of your photographs to the Florida Trail Association? I can see your photos on their annual calendar in my mind.

I have really been missing these videos the past few days. Wondering what you’re up to if you’re playing any music gigs

PT! Great to see you back hiking! I just got MRI'd with a meniscus tear and feeling pretty hopeless. Good to see your knee healing nicely!

Thanks for the tips

Congratulations PT. Awesome trek! What is next? Colorado Trail with Jimmy this summer?

Congratulations. I hiked Rice Creek this past week and it was very wet. It was my first FT so far that I've had some shin-deep water. I felt uncomfortable but your inspiration kept me strong and thought the area was beautiful. Glad I discovered your videos and wish you the best moving forward.

Congrats PT on an epic adventure !!!!

Great Hike ,, Thanks for sharing PT :)

Thanks for the journey, well done! What is the music around 8 or 9 minutes, it's beautiful?

Some poor Ranger School student got chewed up for dropping that magazine in Florida Phase!

Great Job!!

Congrats on your FT finish. Always enjoy watching you hikes. You stayed heathy the whole trip. You hike tell me that I can do it. Already done about 250 miles on weekend trips. You Rock PT. Thanks for sharing!! What next??

That was one intense summit video! Well done

I know that the RUclips is all about video. But, I would be most interested in hearing or reading more of your reflections upon the trail. Do you have any plans to share more of your thoughts about this journey in the near future?

Nice hike man! Well done!

Congratulations!!!!!!!👍👍👍👍

Way to go PT!
