    Just a note about the intro. This will be the only video it plays on. The other videos have a very short version. C'mon did you guys really think I would make you watch that every video 😂

    Hey Frozen, I'm stopping by and rewatching this series. I remember watching it live every week as you hiked 4 years ago, and this is the first thru hike that I ever watched. I wanted to let you know, though you may never see this, that this series helped me plan for my own thru hike. I've wanted to hike the AT for years now. Call it something of a childhood dream if you will, and now, in less than a month I'm going to set foot on the trail myself. God willing, I'll summit Katahdin in the next six months. Thanks for making this series and making my own thru hike possible. Thanks Frozen. Happy trails out there

    Loved the opening! Good luck. Take it easy in the beginning, hike your hike. I've seen to many start out gangbusters and either hurt themselves or just burn out. I know you have a hammock but don't forget to hang out at the shelters. That may be the best part of AT, your fellow hikers.
    Hike on brother.
