Trail Running Maine's 100 Mile Wilderness (And The Appalachian Trail)
The 100 Mile Wilderness. Crown Jewel of the Appalachian Trail in the heart of the Maine woods. Chris and Chris spent three days running, hiking and zombie walking this stretch of the trail from Monson to Abol Bridge back in July. This is our story on film, because our words fail to describe the beauty, joy, desperation and pain we felt in one 72 hour period.
Day 1 would be the easiest of the 3 days, topping out at 25 miles and 7000ft of climbing. Our feet would never be dry again. Day 2 consisted of 30 miles and 6000ft of climbing and heavy rain in the morning. Day 3 started at 3:30am with more heavy rain, 5000ft of climbing and 38 miles. The hardest thing, mentally and physically, we’ve ...

Acadia Mountain Marathon - Acadia National Park

Trail running every major peak in Acadia National Park comes out to exactly 26.2 miles if you configure the route correctly. Chris and Chris attempt to run this route on what turned out to be record breaking heat for the Maine Coast. With temps hovering in the mid 90's with high humidity, will we be able to finish the run and complete the marathon at Sand Beach? With the route totaling almost 7...

A Grand Canyon Rim to Rim to Rim in a single push. This is a bucket list item for many trail runners, hikers and outdoor enthusiasts. Chris and Chris along with their friend August made the trip out from Maine to Arizona to check this one off their bucket list. The weather forecast did not inspire confidence but we were at the South Kaibab trailhead at 5:30am to give it our all. And we did. 13 ...

Canyonlands National Park, Utah. The White Rim trail. Two days and one night, 100 miles of stunning, remote desert scenery. For many cyclists, this is a bucketlist bikepacking trip. Chris and Chris and our friend August were able to check this one off the list in February of 2024. The red rock desert of of Utah did not disappoint. Thank you to our friends Pinebury and Hyperlite.

30 Hours On Katahdin In Winter
Просмотров 4,3 тыс.7 месяцев назад
Katahdin is a magical place in winter. We've climbed Maine's highest peak, located in Baxter State Park dozens of times, both summer and winter. This time the conditions lined up to go up and over the mountain via the Abol Trail instead of the long slog around on the park Tote Road via Roaring Brook Campground. It's shorter, but more consequential if the weather goes south or the avalanche cond...

    • @chrisandchris
      @chrisandchris Месяц назад

      Baxter State Park does not provide and avy resources for Kathadin. All avy knowledge and backcountry preparedness would need to be done by the individual once in the park. We're pretty familiar with Katahdin and the park, with the biggest unknowns in winter being snow conditions and winter weather in remote, backcountry like Baxter State Park. The best resource is still the park website which has an abundance of info on winter travel. You can always call the park and ask additional questions as well and they'll be happy to answer. There are several older trip reports from when blog posts and summitpost where popular, but they're a bit dated now. They do still provide a good sense of what things look and feel like when it comes to traveling in Baxter State Park in winter. We have another video from Katahdin in winter that's from a longer trip if you want to see more of what the park is like in winter.

    Hey guys, great ride, hike and video. I was just there recently, camping at Lunksoos, did 75 gravel miles in KWWNM, plus 12 miles kayaking. The overlook section will be closed for the next year or so for maintenance and improvements. There is a 3 mile detour on the Rocky Pond road. There was also a 7 mile detour before the Sand Bank camp but that is now open. The section of the IAT to Barnard Mt down to Orin Falls had been cleared out and is worth the trip. I have been camping, hiking and cycling in BSP for over 50 years and now KWWNM just adds to the adventure. I also visited the new KWW contact station and it is spectacular although not officially open yet. Thanks for the video, loved it and recognized just about all the areas.

    • @chrisandchris
      @chrisandchris Месяц назад

      Appreciate it Maurice! We did just heard of the loop road closure. Definitely a bummer to hear for folks who were hoping to check it out for foliage, but will be neat to see how they improve it over the next year. Is that IAT section cleared for biking as well or just cleared for foot traffic?

      Thanks for dropping us a line on this. We were also happy to use all the drone shots.

      @chrisandchris 4 месяца назад

      It is! Still kind of weird layout and park in our opinion. Stuck in between a place where it should obviously be protected, but still has an open recreational feel that lumber company lands have. Regardless the Katahdin Loop Road is awesome and they’ve been working on adding new biking trails as well as hiking trails which should give it a more “park” feel in the future.
