One point.... Dixie is in the real world. The rest of us live in a social construct where the most trivial things are deemed to be essential/critical/serious/etc. Having been in the real world where grizzlies, mountain lions, alligators and other critters can kill and eat you, or being alone a couple hundred miles from nowhere and running out of food or water or suffering an injury, gives you a different perspective on what is essential/critical/serious/etc. I haven't seen a late e-mail, the wrong font, not enough ice in a drink, or a typical 2 minute traffic delay kill anyone... but some people make it sound like those things can... I'd love to deposit those folks in a remote forest, remote mountain location, or the Everglades backcountry to give them a reality check!
It's so interesting that now we are coming more and more near the actual date of today. I've been binge watching all your videos in less than a week now and I'm really hooked. I wanna do at least one thru-hike too soon.
It has already snowed in the Rockies through Wyoming and Montana in record amounts for August, up to a foot or more. I spent a month in the Sierra in '72 with no resupply, but we ate a lot of trout and blue grouse with rice. Also stinging nettle greens with wild onions. Stinging nettle is rendered tasty with a simple dip into boiling water.
That's one thing I don't see any of these hikers discuss in their videos, which is foraging. I'm guessing because with their focus on getting the miles in foraging cuts into their miles. As she pointed out at the end of the video, her daily mileage is down through this stretch where they've been fishing, etc.
@@tc556guy The amount of extra time you spend on the trail foraging and fishing, it's a losing proposition to in terms of calories to spend time collecting food while hiking. However, in terms of protein and mental pick me up, fish can be a big bonus. I'll also stop to cut some wild onion stalks for added flavor or just something to chew on while hiking too. Basically no effort, no calories, but a nice flavor especially paired with salami and cheddar in my salami burritos.
What Thoth said. Never miss your updates. Am 69 and still hiking. Have had a little break this summer due to minor surg issue but headed to N. Idaho this next week to get my legs under me in Priest Lake area. Love your videos. You and your buddies and family are an inspiration! Especially enjoyed the llama meeting. Have done that a couple times in last few years. Great trail companions and I honor them for the load they bear!! They kinda spoil ya!
My Friday night: Watching CDT vlogs on one screen, following the CDT on caltopo on the other screen. It's fun seeing where some of these gorgeous views are found. I did a couple hundred miles of the AT about 10 years ago. Life happened, and I haven't hiked since, but this series is prodding the beast from hibernation. I think I'll go for a long walk in the morning...Thanks for your inspiration!
Dixie, your lil' brother is hilarious and also adorable. I'm glad y'all had such a blast on that section together. (and Figure that's about a month ago now and you're on your way to Idaho.) The views, once again, are incredible. So much J and made of want...
The sound of "OH GOD, IT'S SO COLD" was absolutely hilarious!!!!!! You've had some beautiful sunsets....... wow. And yes, you're going to have to have some big days ahead for those "small" trail days......... Can you smell Canada yet????
What a gorgeous area. Every view is picture postcard perfect. Sorry Dakota had the tendon issue, but super happy for him that he made memories that will last a lifetime. And great memories for you, too, Dixie. Hope there will still be a spell of beautiful, warm fall weather to see you to Canada. :-)
Beautiful country, Dixie. I love the water and the trees much more than the craggy heights or desert. You've given your brother a wonderful experience and a priceless memory of shared time with big Sis. Fantastic video. You're videography and narrative just keep getting better. Best wishes going forward.
Whenever I watch your hiking vlogs, I am always filled with so much emotion. I can tell my soul craves experiences like this as I feel so pulled toward exciting views and pushing myself physically. I’ve been following for a while but I’ve never even gone on a hike that is over a mile or two. Regardless though, your positivity and worldview are so similar to my own, and I’m glad to find likeminded people just out there LIVING and experiencing life.
I can't believe how many leaves have fallen already here in Southern Alberta. There's been a couple real chilly mornings. But autumn is my favourite time of year.
Bill Russell; That fishing trip on the CDT would start with the Gila river here in New Mexico. I fish there for the elusive Gila Trout and I keep all non-native species edging out the Gila Trout. I love me some fresh trout for dinner.
I think you hooked your brother on thru hiking at a prime age.. Despite his injuries he'll be back. I only wish i would have had this experience at his age. Great video. Loved the lamas lol.
I think it would be great to have you and Dakota give a post hike interview about this section of trail that you shared and how the brother/sister bond changed because of it. Good to see you all taking advantage of the resource of fish. Had to be a heavenly meal high up on that pass, but I dunno about packing around fish in griz country. Glad it all worked out. Poor Aaron missed out on more of nature's bounty. The scenery and the lakes/skies are just over the top. Thanks so much! Best wishes for Dakota's healing. I hope you get to reunite with Aaron and Perk somewhere soon.
Dixie, in my past backpacking/hiking days I was so focused on what was ahead of me. One time on the trail I stopped and looked back. It was a pivotal (SWIDT?) moment in how I viewed my journey. That also had implications on my non-hiking activity as well. Just wondering, has looking back ever had you in its thrall? Best wishes and continued adventures.
Good luck beating the snow to Canada, Dixie. Hope it works out for you. You have, however, proven that you're up to whatever comes your way. Mother Nature threw snow at you in Washington on the PCT and you powered through and made the northern terminus marker your own. I think the PCT made you a smarter hiker - I think you'll own the CDT like a boss. Stay safe out there. Big animals up ahead. Happy Trails.
Fall is coming, we had frost this morning near Saskatoon and as a result I have to pick all our zucchini a few weeks early. That aside, great video. Going to be super pleased for you on trail completion but sad there won't be an adventure to follow...but please keeping your videos coming
We probably missed crossing paths by only a couple of days as I finished 2 weeks in the Winds this August. It was great to see Hat Pass, Pole Creek, and the environs in a video just a couple of weeks removed from my trip. Power on....
Wow great video! It was nice meeting your boyfriend and brother. I’m glad you got to spend time with them and I’m sure it made this stretch much more exciting.
Hey Dixie, Sorry about your brother's Achilles tendon. That is a game changer, and he will have to get it rested up before moving forward. That was so unfortunate. I loved the fresh caught trout , oil and pan fried with breading with and spices. That was screamin'! I loved the panoramas you have provided in your videos and miss it when you can't post them, but I fully understand the time and not always n the right pace to get the WiFi and upload them. Looks like Aaron is doing fine and you , too. I'm glad to see your toes are getting better...Keep on truckin' Diixie and Aaron!!
I feel for your brother and his tendonitis, since I'm dealing with the same issue this week. Taking a few days off from my normal day hike schedule to try to rest things up. Hope he recovers quickly.
Yeah, I am too, from pushing too hard in Altras earlier this year. (And I'm itching so hard to go out hiking again since I haven't gotten a long one in weeks.) But with plenty of ice, meds, and more ice bags after any exercise so I can get back to hiking in another 2 weeks, once the weather turns a little.
Hoping it doesn't take that long for me to recover. I have one leg that took a lot of abuse since I was young. Sports injuries in school. Bad sprain from stupid stuff like landing wrong coming out the back end of a Humvee 14 years ago. Broke a big toe once just running for the ringing phone when getting out of the shower. Stupid stuff. When I got back into hiking last winter I opted for trailrunners, which was a mistake. Not enough support for all the past abuse. So I bumped up to something with a little more ankle support. Two months ago I'm home sleeping after an overnight shift, and the neighbor calls and wakes me up to inform me that three runaways from a local juvenile detention facility are on our street going door to door. So I jump into something so I don't freak out the little old retired ladies on my block and we're chasing these idiots down peoples backyards on our block. In the process I managed to twist the ankle on that leg that's not so great. Since then I've still been putting in 2-3 hours a day hiking. Pop some ibuprofen, and about a half hour into the hike it stops hurting. But it wasn't getting better. So this week I decided to take a week off and see how well it recovers. Next week, if its no better, I'll maybe actually see my GP. I'm guessing that he'll tell me to lay off hiking for multiple weeks, which sucks because I was hoping to take some time off in September and get in some section hikes before the weather goes bad. Any delays into October and November in my part of the country and you start running into hunting seasons where many sections of our trails are shut down for the various small and large game seasons. Good luck to you on your recovery.
OK... LOL I was hiking that area in June. You are almost to the Grand Tetons and in fact you may be there by the time this was posted. The 3 Sisters offer amazing views and if you reach the top of them, you can actually Look Down on airplanes, as they land in Jackson Hole Wy. I can't wait to see next week!
Another dream video for us couch campers, thanks! On the decision of Dakota to hitchhike to the airport (probably long since done), how did that work out? I assume that y'all had some information that there would be a decent chance of success before making that decision. You've already talked before about all the friendly folks and that "the trail provides", but not always on one's schedule.
Oh man, a relatively short clip compared to others. I was just getting it and then it was over. Always look forward to Wednesday Eve's. Stay safe out there and enjoy.
I know you have probably already addressed this in a previous video but why not carry a pair of cheap water shoes from Walmart to slip on for water crossings? I know it is a few more ounces but I think I would rather do that than walk in wet shoes the rest of the day. You could even slip them on when it rains while you are walking on relatively flat ground.
Went to Yellowstone for 2 weeks with a friend in early 1970's . I had never seen anythng soon majestickly beautiful.in my life . Don't have much scenery in NYC.
What flies did you find that work well in that Wind River Range? I fly fish occasionally in which you have a spool of line length, but with a fixed line length for Tenkara; what is the total length of line that was working for you?
Okay, so we the 'forum members' need to sign, date and "seal" a certificate for Aaron and his work through these three 'hikes'. Thats gotta be some powerful resume status if you get 130,000 signatures that sya "yep! He's good!!".
In this episode: Dixie cheers on some squirrels; Dixie carries some fish; and Dixie sweet talks some llamas.
I read that in the Top Gear announcer voice.
yep, the BBC top gear is exactly how i read these posts as well.
and my reaction is always the same,-> HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
I very rarely laugh out loud (literally) while reading comments but yours always make me laugh really hard. XD

ditto
Couldn't agree more. When she said that, I thought, you *are* in the real world, not this crazy mess we call society.
" I was sad because I had no shoes until I saw a man who had no feet " ???
Your Southern accent is delightful!!! Thanks!
Yeah, I was surprised when she said that.
only a minute into the video and already feel like i’m captivated in another world. the editing along with the dialogue is so well done.
It's so interesting that now we are coming more and more near the actual date of today. I've been binge watching all your videos in less than a week now and I'm really hooked. I wanna do at least one thru-hike too soon.

Trout and grouse! Spent summer of 1970 in random national forests.
@@RalphReagan The blue grouse were open all year then and dumb enough to shoot with a slingshot. lol
Thanks for all of your videos you have posted. Inspiring and something I look forward to each Wed.

I went hiking today because I have gotten hooked on your videos. Thanks for the great content.
Beautiful country, Dixie. I love the water and the trees much more than the craggy heights or desert.
You've given your brother a wonderful experience and a priceless memory of shared time with big Sis.
Fantastic video. You're videography and narrative just keep getting better.
Best wishes going forward.
Poor little brother...hope he is over his pain. Thank you for the great video.
Wonderful section this week. Amazing how cool it's getting this early. Thank you again. Good family time!

The scenery is incredible. Many of your still shots look like post cards. Hope you are enjoying the trail. Thank you for sharing.
third!!! I'm gonna be so sad when this is over. But I'm gonna be so stoked to find out what the next one will be.
how do you cope with poison oak?
I agree, MD. Poison oak, maybe a baking soda paste using water??
Binge-watching all of Dixies videos going strong..
I have younger siblings and felt the same way about them as you feel about your brother. Wow! Such beautiful scenery.
Wind River Range looks amazing. Thanks for sharing your journey and being so humorous, too.
Nothing like fresh fish on the trail. Awesome Dixie
Thanks Dixie, no matter how bad a day may seem your vids always make me smile.
“The real world.” I think the trail is the real world! 😁
It happens, brother. Good to have you along.
Beautiful Wyoming. Fond memories of a summer working in Pinedale.
I am 64 and after watching the PCT and the CDT I have walked 1,100 miles! Thank you.
Food, sleep & a shower. The simple things in life can make one so happy.
I can't believe how many leaves have fallen already here in Southern Alberta. There's been a couple real chilly mornings. But autumn is my favourite time of year.
So glad your brother was able to come out for a bit to share the experience with you!
Gonna need honest reaction vid of mom's true feelings on Dakota hiking to Jackson Hole in your behind the scenes wrap up
Tom Norvell Hahaha she’s learning to deal with her crazy kids!
WDE!! Wind River with fly rod is on the docket for summer 2022. Looking forward to a one of fish fries.
Wow! The pics were some of the most spectacular, yet! Absolutely gorgeous. Safe travels!!
Great to hear that you have reunited with Perk for the final stretch.
wow, you always visit the amazing places.
I could not pass up that fishing it would take me ten years to walk cdt
Same. Especially in the Winds
Me three. I have a Tenkara Rod. I would probably be using it every chance I got.
Same here...but I’d never finish
Bill Russell; That fishing trip on the CDT would start with the Gila river here in New Mexico. I fish there for the elusive Gila Trout and I keep all non-native species edging out the Gila Trout. I love me some fresh trout for dinner.
Be a great decade though
I am so thinking I'm having fish tonight!!! Nothing like what you had however.... Just beautiful countryside, knock my socks off stunning!
Those look like @Wilderness Ridge Trail Llamas ! Gorgeous country. Thanks for sharing! I've hiked portions of the Winds while elk hunting.
I've been enjoying all you video's for some time now. Good luck on your push!!
Love this section, the mountains are beautiful. Glad you had good company!
Great experience for Dakota being out there with you Dixie! Happy Trails, press on!
Lettin' Momma Bear know what the plan is. How sweet. That's called respect. Comes from good rearin'!!
John a Fagerquist Awww, thank you! She handled it well, too. Haha.
he only called because he was hoping she would wire him the money
I think you hooked your brother on thru hiking at a prime age.. Despite his injuries he'll be back. I only wish i would have had this experience at his age. Great video. Loved the lamas lol.

I hope you get to reunite with Aaron and Perk somewhere soon.
Coughing Owl Outdoors I thought the same thing about packing the fish.
Love your videos so much! I’ve been watching you since the AT and it’s amazing to see how much you’ve grown as a person
Dixie, in my past backpacking/hiking days I was so focused on what was ahead of me. One time on the trail I stopped and looked back. It was a pivotal (SWIDT?) moment in how I viewed my journey. That also had implications on my non-hiking activity as well. Just wondering, has looking back ever had you in its thrall? Best wishes and continued adventures.
Sounds like reason enough to do all three trails again, only SoBo the next time!
One benefit of winter is the ease of water crossings. Couldn't do Alaska without it.
Havent been watching any of these, been waiting for a lot of vids and binging em all one weekend :)
I love the shots you get. The scenery is absolutly breathtaking!
Good luck beating the snow to Canada, Dixie. Hope it works out for you. You have, however, proven that you're up to whatever comes your way.

Another beautiful stretch of trail. Thanks
You rock as a big sister I’m so jealous of your travels !!!!! Enjoy your channel,
thank you

Go Dixie. Good to see yall are doing well. Great stuff and advice.
thanks Dixie I look forward to every Wednesday!!!
Fresh fish sounds great. Beautiful area. Hope your brother enjoyed himself and made it home safe.
James Bonner fresh fish sounds great, fish that’s been in a pack for a day....
Dixie,
Too bad about your brother. At least he got to experience what you like to do and backpack with you. Great intro BTW!
Wow great video! It was nice meeting your boyfriend and brother. I’m glad you got to spend time with them and I’m sure it made this stretch much more exciting.
Good luck beating the heavy snow! As always I wish you the best!
Kyle got to do everything. Hiking, bad weather, survival and injury.
Can't wait for next video. Will be my favorite part of the Winds.
Hey Dixie, Sorry about your brother's Achilles tendon. That is a game changer, and he will have to get it rested up before moving forward. That was so unfortunate. I loved the fresh caught trout , oil and pan fried with breading with and spices. That was screamin'!

Such beautiful landscape shots....wow
More WOW from Dixie! Thank you, ma'am....just gorgeous!
Where has the summer gone that sparkling morning frost and racing alpine snow should have replaced hot desert sun and sketchy water sources?
It's so beautiful 🌼 your brother did so well carrying that injury! Thanks for sharing your stories 🌼💗🌼
Dixie has got to be in Montana by now, and we are having beautiful weather, perfect.
If you’re gonna be eattin’ all that trout, you gotta start carrying some hush puppy mix...just add water and fry ‘em up.
Dixie and crew, I live in Pinedale! If you are still around and need anything holler!
Another gorgeous video. Good thing your honey brought the Tenkara. His daisy dukes crack me up LOL
What a beautiful place to hike!
Damn! Here it is 90 degrees in Northern California today. I like the smell of day hikers when they pass by.
What are your plans after finishing your triple crown? Do it again or continue to other National Trails like the North Country Trail?
North County trail is massive that would be cool to watch not many videos about hiking it
I feel for your brother and his tendonitis, since I'm dealing with the same issue this week. Taking a few days off from my normal day hike schedule to try to rest things up. Hope he recovers quickly.
Yeah, I am too, from pushing too hard in Altras earlier this year. (And I'm itching so hard to go out hiking again since I haven't gotten a long one in weeks.) But with plenty of ice, meds, and more ice bags after any exercise so I can get back to hiking in another 2 weeks, once the weather turns a little.
Hoping it doesn't take that long for me to recover. I have one leg that took a lot of abuse since I was young. Sports injuries in school. Bad sprain from stupid stuff like landing wrong coming out the back end of a Humvee 14 years ago. Broke a big toe once just running for the ringing phone when getting out of the shower. Stupid stuff. When I got back into hiking last winter I opted for trailrunners, which was a mistake. Not enough support for all the past abuse. So I bumped up to something with a little more ankle support. Two months ago I'm home sleeping after an overnight shift, and the neighbor calls and wakes me up to inform me that three runaways from a local juvenile detention facility are on our street going door to door. So I jump into something so I don't freak out the little old retired ladies on my block and we're chasing these idiots down peoples backyards on our block. In the process I managed to twist the ankle on that leg that's not so great. Since then I've still been putting in 2-3 hours a day hiking. Pop some ibuprofen, and about a half hour into the hike it stops hurting. But it wasn't getting better. So this week I decided to take a week off and see how well it recovers. Next week, if its no better, I'll maybe actually see my GP. I'm guessing that he'll tell me to lay off hiking for multiple weeks, which sucks because I was hoping to take some time off in September and get in some section hikes before the weather goes bad. Any delays into October and November in my part of the country and you start running into hunting seasons where many sections of our trails are shut down for the various small and large game seasons.
Good luck to you on your recovery.
Keep it up Dixie :P excited for you to finish. It'll be bitter sweet.
Just found you videos; Love how you talk to the animals.
OK... LOL I was hiking that area in June. You are almost to the Grand Tetons and in fact you may be there by the time this was posted. The 3 Sisters offer amazing views and if you reach the top of them, you can actually Look Down on airplanes, as they land in Jackson Hole Wy. I can't wait to see next week!
Great video as always, beautiful scenery. Ty for sharing. Love & peace ✌🏻
You should tell the fisher guy to get some longer shorts. Great video! P.s. - longer shorts dude.
Another dream video for us couch campers, thanks! On the decision of Dakota to hitchhike to the airport (probably long since done), how did that work out? I assume that y'all had some information that there would be a decent chance of success before making that decision.

Oh man, a relatively short clip compared to others. I was just getting it and then it was over. Always look forward to Wednesday Eve's. Stay safe out there and enjoy.
Love it! Keep on keepin on....rooting for you, praying for you. M
I’m so proud for y’all! Adventure of a lifetime! I saw his auburn shirt...Roll Tide! Lol. Be safe
Hi, what a great experience for your brother. What do you think caused the tendinitis? His shoes or over exertion too quickly?
Can't wait to see some stunning scenery!😄
I know you have probably already addressed this in a previous video but why not carry a pair of cheap water shoes from Walmart to slip on for water crossings? I know it is a few more ounces but I think I would rather do that than walk in wet shoes the rest of the day. You could even slip them on when it rains while you are walking on relatively flat ground.
You better start to put some speed in your hike. Winter comes really early in our neck of the woods. This isn't the West coast.
I think she is a ways ahead of the videos. Last week someone was saying she had already passed through Yellowstone.
Yeah, her videos are about 2 weeks behind where she is actually at!
Went to Yellowstone for 2 weeks with a friend in early 1970's . I had never seen anythng soon majestickly beautiful.in my life . Don't have much scenery in NYC.
You're awesome Dixie
Your next career should be hiking trail guide!
Again, beautiful photographic sites.
What flies did you find that work well in that Wind River Range? I fly fish occasionally in which you have a spool of line length, but with a fixed line length for Tenkara; what is the total length of line that was working for you?
love yeh from west Georgia!can't wait to see the next trail.hope ome day it will be all the way across Europe!
For example, this trail:
viadinarica.com/en/
My brother lives in Bozeman and they have already had snow/rain mix. Farmers Almanac says it will be a hard winter this year.
Beautiful photography!
Okay, so we the 'forum members' need to sign, date and "seal" a certificate for Aaron and his work through these three 'hikes'. Thats gotta be some powerful resume status if you get 130,000 signatures that sya "yep! He's good!!".
I really enjoy your videos; you do a great job. Thanks for sharing. J.
