I am so enjoying your videos. Thanks for taking us along on your journey. I followed Scout Master on his journey ,and now you seem to be my AT fix since he is done. Hope you have the same success he did. I watched while you were in Ga. as well and felt so bad when you had your injury. Never ever thought you would be back this year. Well done Grumpy. HYOH and be safe. You are doing GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like your style! Slow and steady wins the race/hike! I think it also brings home the point that it's all about HYOH. As Reddmage told me once, "whatever, whenever, make it your own" I'm in the planning stages of section hiking Ga in October. Thanks for taking us on your journey. It is much appreciated! Be safe out there!
Congratulations on walking off an e-page. In Virginia now. Woot woot. I like how you include the guidebook in your videos. Thanks for taking the time to take us along.
Are you pre-taping your hotspots? I am learning a lot from you on this hike in as much as you are taking it easy and enjoying it. On my next section hike, I MUST do that. Thanks Grumpy you are an inspiration to me.
Fairly easy hike from keys gap to David Lesser. David Lesser Shelter has a swing and a fantastic shelter area- nice hammock sites, too. If you go to Blackburn- very important- take the 2nd Blue blaze SOBO down the mountain from the AT. The first one will send you down a million steep stone steps. I struggled down those dang steps. On the 2nd blue blaze, you may backtrack, but it’s easier. Don’t stealth at Blackburn, it’s super nice- if they’re open you should stop in at least. There is an outdoor shower at Blackburn, too! After that, Bears Den.....sweet!! You are killin’ it! Hike on, Grumpy!!
We got up to 10" of rain this afternoon in parts of Lancaster County, PA many major roads closed until the water went back down. All this during rush hour.
Time to invade WV and VA! David Lesser is very nice. That's the one I was telling you about I ended up sleeping between a couple dogs. There is a nice hiker cabin at Blackburn...the stairs are steep though. Sam Moore shelter I never liked and Rod Hollow is pretty sad too. Dicks Dome and Whisky Hollow are nice. Jim n Molly is killer!

Thank you for watching and Early Riser 71 gave me the idea of showing the AWOL guide and planning the day out for everyone to see
Uncle Paul has a great voice! Would love to be serenaded by him on my hike. Awesome hike, Grumpy!
Great job! Will miss Uncle Paul. Harpers Ferry looks like such a cool place. I’m hoping to visit next summer. Happy hiking!!
Harper's Ferry was really cool. Once this hike is completed, Diane and I are heading there to spend a little time
Doing well Grumpy. Slow and steady.
Thank you
I love your ATC photo! So glad you’ve been able to get back on trail this year.
I can't believe it myself It's really like a dream. To be able to get to try twice in the same year
I hiked thru your section last fall. Nice area.
Are you pre-taping your hotspots? I am learning a lot from you on this hike in as much as you are taking it easy and enjoying it. On my next section hike, I MUST do that. Thanks Grumpy you are an inspiration to me.
Thank you. Hotspots will be taped before the shoes go on tomorrow

Thank you so much for that great information

WOW. There were some storms around here yesterday but nothing like that
Did you stop at Weaverton Cliff excellent view up there.
By the time I got to the blue blaze, Uncle Paul had been sitting awhile waiting and I wasn't up for . 4 more miles LoL
Glad you had a short day and some time in Harper's Ferry.
It really was nice. GG would have loved checking out all the old historical buildings
I was thinking the same thing. It seems like a great place to go spend several days sightseeing.
The night I slept along the bike path on the Potomac was really freaking cool. I thought I was gonna get raped by some hobos, but I smelled too bad.
Early_Riser_71 lmao!
LoL.
LOL...
Good video, your gaining ground! How's that ankle brace holding up?
My ankle is holding up great, the brace on the other hand is in the wings at the moment.

I would like to get to Blackburn, but that will depend on the way I feel
Starting to tic some states off the list! Keep up the great hike and take care of those feet
I care for my feet very well. I know they are going to be getting the worst part of this deal
Uncle Paul has a really nice voice!
Yes he does
Congrats #243!
It was nice to see uncle Paul
He is heading back home tomorrow. I don't know when I will see him again
