    So funny how you were disgusted by just a couple of days of trail dirt back then :o)
    I appreciate the work you and other put into making these videos. If not for people like you I would not have been motivated to try it myself after having cancer 9 years ago and then having to overcome nerve damage in one of my feet. Again it was because of RUclips that I found a solution for my nerve damage and the next week bought a light weight backpack and hit the trail . . . :o)

      I’ve been looking into Thru hiking for my bf and I hopefully when I’m done with nursing school!! I heard it’s average of $5-8000/person for a thru hike... I would LOVE it if you could do a video with your bf about how you guys did it together and if you shared gear or each had your own stuff like pot/stove/water filtration stuff like that.. I know you mentioned he carried the tent but would love to see some info on the rest of how you guys did it together.. searching couples thru hiking on RUclips and there isn’t actually that much about couples doing it together ❤️

    So cool to see my old home town Julian.
    I used to deliver the mail there and drove 110 miles down thru Scissors Crossing and beyond.
    I would pick up PCT folks and drive um up to Julian for some pie at Moms

Second degree burns within 20 minutes (with a 60spf) and sun poisoning don't work well for hiking, but maybe there is another more shaded and wood trail out there for me

    Hi Mari, another great video. The scenery there looks absolutely spectacular. You are certainly high up over there. I am currently wondering what the AM radio reception would be like there at night. Being so far from everywhere, it would more likely be a great area for receiving distant radio stations. In some way, the scenery there reminds me a bit of the area around Mount Delegate Vic Australia. Anyway, take care. Robert.

  • @delmorejr1950
    @delmorejr1950 5 лет назад

    The giant asparagus looking cactus is not a cactus, it is a type of Agave which can live up to forty years, and only puts out the central stalk when it is near death, the stalk will have blooms along the stalk near the top before it dies. Julian is a good first stop for hikers although many stop at Lake Morena and Mt Laguna first. On your way into Warner Springs you will have a real treat with all the different cacti and other flowering plants. SAFE HIKING

    Dirt is a never ending cycle! When I lived in the car, before I had a gym membership, I tried the baby wipe technique and I wasn't impressed. I found it better just to use big cheap bottles of hand sanitizer and paper towels. Helped with smelling better, but dries you out a bit. I used the ocean when nearby, or the showers at the beach. Most of the time, I took "bird baths" in sinks at Walmarts, etc. and used a wash cloth. But I guess without a sink, you can hope to find a creek or pond. You don't really need soap as long as you just rub down in the water. But really it doesn't matter. Being dirty can be very freeing once you no longer care. I'd only be concerned in towns when you're around other people! OMG I miss Cheez-its! They don't have them here in Malaysia. Cheers!
