Hey y’all! I’m so grateful for everyone who has been a part of this journey with me. I couldn’t have done it without y’all. Today we are trying RUclips’s BRAND NEW “premiere” feature with the final CDT video. I’ll be here when the video posts to watch it with all of you. Feel free to check out the live chat feature, where I’ll be chatting with everyone as “THE END” is streaming :) Thanks again and I hope everyone enjoys it!
Can someone please inform me how to do the live chat feature?
haha, kinda tricked me. I clicked on it so fast I didn't see the Premier tag!
Below the episode title there is a button for 'live chat' (next to the thumbs up/thumbs down buttons)
"Holy Moly Guacamole" The little girl with the southern accent is now a TRIPLE CROWN er. !!!WOW!!!
Kana Michelle Should see the option for live chat near the thumbs up and thumbs down buttons :)
When "Clare de Lune" started playing, I knew the end was near. Well done, Perk, Aaron & Dixie. You all, kept us on the edge of our seats through each thrilling episode with your tanacity & final accomplishment with crossing over the boarder into Canada.
Mahalo Nui Loa for taking us all along! 😎🤙❤👍
Congrats to all of you, but a special shout out to Aaron, who seemed a bit out of depth at the start, but finished strong, and to Perk with whom it was so fitting to finish, and to you Dixie for sharing your adventures and thoughts along the way.
David Terrie Thank you! Yes, Aaron was a trooper. Had so much responsibility and still killed it.
David Terrie Yes, I thought about Aaron a lot during this trek. Any other trip will be a walk in the park now.
Dixie, I stand in awe of you my dear! You have more courage, passion, & persistance than I could ever muster up. I watched your AT video series. It took me two nights to watch it all. You had me in tears at your biological fathers grave, that was very touching. You did it again when you shared losing your beautiful dog, I'm a dog lover too. Then at the trails end, once again I teared up. I was so proud of all you had accomplished on the AT. Then I started watching the UDT video series on a Friday night, made through the 8th video before going to sleep. On Saturday afternoon, I asked my wife if she would like to see what I had been watching, she said yes. We watched the rest of the series nonstop. We were both amazed at all you saw & went through! I couldn't believe how calm you were with the eye to eye contact with the mountain lion & then you played the harmonica! Blew me away!! Now I'm going to watch the PCT series. Young lady, you are amazing & I have a new hero!! Good luck in all you do!!
Words cannot express what an inspiration you are to my teenaged girls and me. We backpacked for the first time this summer and loved it. Thanks so much for touching us all! Get some rest!!
Triple crown wow! Nice. Im going to try the pct this up coming spring
Im a fireman and watch a lot of YT while at work. Not exactly sure how i came across this channel and i cant stop watching it. I started with the PCT journey and now just watched the entire CPT journey over the last three days. It have been a wonderful journey and thankful to guys documented it so well. I have spent a lot of time in the rockies hunting and camping and have loved every minute of it. This series, this last video brought tears to my eyes knowing that you guys achieved your goals and dreams. I will be encouraging my 15 year old daughter and 14 year old son to watch these videos. I tell them about goals and chasing dreams all the time but i really think these videos will inspire them in ways even a parent may not be able to. Thank you
Dixie - you and Aaron did a great job with this series! It should win some kind of award in my opinion!
Wow, watched you through all 3 hikes. Saw you grow, learn and persevere. What an inspirational journey filled with hard gotten wisdom and an example for all those watching. I have recommended this channel to all and have used this channel to empower my grand daughters. Please, please write a book! Thanks not just for including us through the videos but for bringing us the next level in hiking cinematography. Take care and I'll be watching. FA out.
Watching the three of you finish the CDT left me speechless, if you knew me you would know that's hard to do. I admit that I teared up just a little. Dixie, Perk and Aaron thanks for taking us along with you on this adventure. Congratulations on the triple crown for Dixie and Perk. Aaron your work and effort on this journey has added so much, thanks. Whatever y'all have planed next, well I can't wait. Love and best wishes to y'all Tim
Congratulations Dixie..! I have been following you since the A.T...! I hope you continue posting...😃
Girl, you've got me crying into my coffee, here. I have no intention of ever doing a hike like this, but through your videos you make everyone feels so connected to you all that it's so emotional when you finish!
So... Where next? ;)
Turn around and head south... we don't want to see the adventure end! But understand it must! Congratulations on the Triple Crown!
Dixie, I love the adventure you've taken me on through all your videos but the CDT has to be the best. You have truly inspired me as a 55 year old to do more and live out some of these adventures for myself. Thank you so much!
“Turn the negativity of nay sayers into fuel”!! How awesome is that.
Well done Dixie and thank you for the last three years of inspiration.
Yeah heard that too! Nay sayers all over thanks for the inspiration Dixie !
Congrat to you all and thanks for taking me along ........peace .....love..........and light Dave
Oooh Dixie... Hurras for such a humble victory. You are so humble. So strong. This is really touching. You are an example for all of us. The last snowy parts was really risky for sure. I am from Switzerland and used to snow. Your decision to finish this way was the right.
Thank you SO much for all the shares and for who you are!
Of course you need to digest your triple crown accomplishments. But what next? Via Alpina in Europe/Switzerland? :-) If ever, contact me, I can help/welcome.
I'm blown away. You're amazing and I've truly enjoyed watching you reach your goals. Congratulations on the Triple Crown!
I don’t know why but I’m so emotional 😭. Congrats on your triple crown 👸!!!
Dixie always makes me get emotional!
I'm glad I'm not the only one, it made me tear up! So happy for her!
Me too!
Hi Dixie! You're completion of The Triple Crown literally brought me to tears! Congrats! The tales of your adventures through all three trails, the pictures and videos, and incredible spirit have inspired me beyond measure. I was born mere miles from the Northern Terminus of the PCT in Manning Park (Princeton, BC) and now feel so inspired to just get out and hike!!! Thank you and good luck on your next journey!!
You and your crew are really awesome. I applaud your courage and grit to gut it out. You, yourself, overcame so many aches and pains to get to the end, and complete your Quest! You've got spunk,young lady! When I look at the picture of you at the start of the AT and compare it to your picture at the end of the CDT, I see an a much wiser and stronger woman. It has been a pleasure to share your journey and I thank you for giving your Patreons so much attention. Good luck in the future and hope you finally get back home to share your joy with your family!
You are an inspiration for all of us watching! I think the emotion you feel at completing these hikes transfers over. I'm very emotional watching you guys finish. I have never really wanted to hike in my life but after watching these videos, I want to... I've camped out all my life and been outdoorsy, especially hard core skier (native Coloradan), but, I'm totally afraid of Mountain Lions... They scare me more than bears, maybe I'm stupid, but... wow, to anyone who gets out there and does this... Montana, mountains, and snow storms are no joke, I've been in the snow and cold a lot because of skiing. I think some of these outdoor companies should be supporting you because it certainly says a about the equipment and clothes you chose... Yea for girl power!! Go be that spokesperson. I certainly am sick of watching the Kardashians and people like them make millions and they really don't do anything, who doesn't look beautiful spending hours on makeup and hair, it's nothing film high soap opera drama on a daily basis and the masses eat it up, instead of getting out there and living their own life. It's actually pretty pathetic and doesn't say much about American society as a whole. I think drama with weather, survival skills, mountain lions and bears is more "real" than biotch drama any day. Kudos to you!! You could probably even do seminars and motivation for girls... because I think these films are wonderful, and I think you should put them all together and do a movie or a series of movies. Think Ken Burns and Netflix....
I don't say much but wendy and i have followed you since the AT!!! Been a wonderful ride very proud of you! Congrats ❤
Rewilding to nature Thank y’all so much!
I just finished binging all the episodes of your through hiked of the AT, PCT, and. CDT. It took me about 7 days to watch them all. I love your attitude, determination, and commentary. I don’t know if it does any good to “like” 3 year old videos but I tried to remember to like them all. Love your channel and your adventures.
I love how emotional you got. Great job. Keep the adventure alive.
Your videos of the AT, the PCT the CDT are one of the very best series of videos on RUclips.
As someone with anxiety I can't see how you have the strength to do this. Just going for a couple hours takes me days of attempts.
You are blessed to have a soul that can do anything.
I have anxiety too. Keep trying to push your comfort zone bit by bit (while practicing anxiety maintenance I'm sure you are aware of). Pushing is how we expand that little bubble.
I wish you all the best.
Aaron has an amazing portfolio now online, holy crow.
You and Perk are the bomb!!! So glad you guys have completed the triple crown. I’m glad I’ve had the opportunity to follow you the whole way. Congrats. You all are a great inspiration !!!!
Oh my gosh... Im both so excited and so sad!
OMG...what an epic finish...sitting on the edge of my chair watching you'll hiking in deep snow with icy conditions and the edge of the mountain...you all are some tough hikers , impressive !
I watched the CDT series as the episodes came out back in 2018, I remember I'd get in from work, hoping a new episode had been posted! I'm living in Australia now, am 60 years old and for the first time in my life, I have flu, so I have binge watched all the CDT episodes again! Great job👍
When I finished binge watching this entire season I noticed that the final episode will be up soon.
I can't wait to see it.
FINALLY.... I watched 'em all. From your first steps on Springer Mountain to 48.9987N 113.9061W. It's been a pleasure and an inspiration to get to know you, Perk, Aaron, Rigga and all the other folks you encountered on your Triple Crown journey. Congratulations and thank you for taking me places and showing me things I'll probably never get to see on my own. Best wishes to you in whatever your future holds. God Bless.
This was my forth time to follow your trip and the end still brought tears to my eyes. WELL DONE Dixie, Perk and especially Arron, you all be proud of you accomplishment, wishing Arron success on the other two hikes if that is his target.
Very glad you made it! Thank you for sharing the journey! Amazing!
I just love you Dixie! I only discovered you about 2 weeks ago during the Coronavirus crisis and I've binge watched both the PCT and the CDT videos. I couldn't believe it when I found myself crying as you were nearing the end of the PCT and then again as you finished the CDT. You've inspired me to get out and start hiking, realistically, for the first time ever. I hope to section hike the PCT bit by bit in the next few years. Thank you for taking the time to let us into your world and for making it about something more than just hiking and nature. Best of luck in your future endeavors. I hope you can get back here to Oregon, some day, so that you can see it instead of just a bunch of smoke. Little Crater Lake was beautiful, huh?
You are an inspiration. I am 74 and a lifetime hiker (day hikes). I wish i would have known about these trails when i was younger.
A HUGE congrats on your triple crown. Thanks for taking us on the adventure with you. I have followed all of your hikes from day to day and look forward to what you decide to do next. LOVE your videos.
I’ll be working when this goes live, but wanted to congratulate you Dixie on the Triple Crown! You have inspired me to start saving up and getting prepared to take on the journey of major thru hiking. I’m hoping to start with the AT when I graduate from college in 2020! Thank you for sharing your journeys with us, the videos have all been amazing!
Congratulations from PA! So proud of all 3 of you. I don't know how you made it through those last few passes in whiteout conditions. So glad all of you finished together!!!🍾🥂
Got goosebumps during last year's video when you completed the PCT, and now again for the CDT :)
Congrats, Dixie. Your growth and development these past three-years have been an inspiration for us all. I'm going to miss your commentary - keep smiling - you're great.
All I can say is "Thank You" !👍
Entertaining, Educational and Inspirational.
Wow. Congratulations, Dixie. And congratulations to Perk and Aaron, too. That took some major grit.
Still 2 hours to go for this premiere, but I already clicked the like button. That will save me time and effort later so I can focus all my concentration on the video itself. Great that I can pre-like it.
Congratulations Dixie! I knew you would do it. It's been an honor to share your adventures over these last few years. You've been a big encouragement to me to just get out there and try. Blessings to you.
Your one BA chick! Congrats!
Dixie, you are such an inspiration. This was such a joy to watch, and your playlists have inspired me to start looking at planning a PCT thru-hike in a few years. I've done some section hikes locally, but no more than 4 nights. I can't wait to get out there and experience a fraction of what you have!
Congrats Dixie, Perk, and Arron!
Congratulations on the triple crown! Thank you for allowing us to be a part of it!
Hallo from Norway. Well done Dixie, Perk and Aaron! Thanks for taking us along with you on this adventure. Congratulations on the triple crown for Dixie and Perk. Have seen all
Congratulations Dixie!!!! I couldn't be prouder of you if you were my own daughter!! Your persistence and determination are admirable, and a lesson to us all.
Congratulations Dixie! Thanks for taking us on the journey with you! I have enjoyed the videos and you have inspired me to do more hiking. What beautiful scenery the CDT has to offer. Best wishes in the future. You definitely have earned your Triple Crown.
congrats on the triple!! wow...
I haven’t watched it yet. I’m so sad this is the last video of this epic journey you’ve taken us on. I’ve saved it for this morning when everyone’s out of the house and I can cry in peace.
So glad Perc said “on the count of three”. It’s fitting that you guys ended together. Glad you guys met back up to finish the journey. He’s been such a part of the three journeys. Can’t wait to see where you go from here.
Clair de Lune...nice choice.
mark pappas it was playing in my head on a loop that whole day
should be Dixies' theme song
That’s when the tears started flowing for me! I love that piece and it was very fitting.
mark pappas I thought so also. Enjoyed it with the scenery!
Thank you! I was hoping someone would mention the name of the music. :)
I've watched every episode over the several years and walked every step with you, if only from my desk. How is it now that I'm so emotional? I feel like you, Perk, and Aaron are my friends and I've enjoyed the journey. I once noted that this was the best program on the Internet (or television) and the CDT, especially the End, only confirmed that notion. Through the thousand of miles that you shared with me, I thank you so much for letting me tag along. Congratulations on your accomplishment. Now, where are we going next?
What a journey !! Thanks for sharing. Watching these has helped bring some peace of mind to this PCT NOGO 2020. Thanks so much. I live how you embrace the alternates. Great work
This is scary
Finished it, happy for you, it's been a fun outdoor journey to follow. I've always been an outdoors person, but you got me in to hiking RUclips channels, and your channel and thiers has gotten me in some more adventurous outdoor stuff. So thanks and congratz
Congrats on yur triple crown! But seriously.... what am I now going to do on my Thursday mornings? Watching your adventures has been part of our days for many of this group of followers for the past few years. God bless and may life never stop proving you the opportunity to enjoy each and every moment!
I've been putting off watching this one because I didn't want to stop following the journey. Congratulations again on completing the trail and joining the triple crown circle. All my best, Dixie, and know I'm looking forward to your next adventure. Thanks for sharing them with us.
The good news is now I feel ok about watching your post trail gear run-down. Those are some of my favorite videos by any through hiking RUclipsr. Tons of great info in those - thanks for posting one!
What's next?
You are amazing. A little bit Dolly Parton and a little bit Buddha. I’m 70 years old, sold my house of 35 years, moved into a van full time and am going to enjoy the rest of the journey. You are never too old. Two thumbs up lady!
Ahhh! Can’t wait!
Thanks for taking us along with you
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I will be watching this as I do my 12 mile walk on the treadmill this afternoon. I am conditioning for my PCT through hike in 2019. Thank you to you and Aaron for putting all the time in to these videos. Love them all and have learned so much from you - even which underwear to buy, haha (love the Exofficios :D). I can't wait to follow you on your next adventure. ~Violet
Tracy L Treadmill is not the most ideal way to condition for long distance trekking. I strongly recommend putting a pack on and find some hills or flights of stairs if you're a city dweller. A weight vest is also a really good option.
Congrats to you on your upcoming hike! That’s wonderful 😃 Glad you found a pair of under-britches you like. Haha. I love them too!
And thank you!
cj 6767 - I am not only walking on the treadmill - I also hike trails using my fully weighted pack, do other forms of cardio, and weight train. I use the treadmill as a supplement once or twice a week :)
I'm so Happy for you. Congratulations DIXIE!!! I'm a little sad too. I know we haven't heard the last from you but your love of outdoors will not end. Thank you for your inspiration, from Arizona all my best in the future.
Congratulations ! Finished it with tears in my eyes as well. What an amazing accomplishment. Thank you for allowing us to live it with you, everything from the AT to today
Man bittersweet to say the least. Been following through all the trails. Congrats on completing your goal. Looking forward to see what you and crew do next.
Congratulations! It would be nice to know the toughest parts of the whole hike. Was the cold or snow toughest, or rain? Those bear prints were massive. That is sobering to see. Glad you made it past them. The snow covered landscape is beautiful. You picked good music. I liked it., like around 4:25.
Your videos really make me happy to see the world, to hear you and the others with you, plus how you solve problems and enjoy the world. People like you on RUclips tend to have an awesome realness and rawness to video and yet refine it quite well with video editing and good audio.
Best of all, there's little commercialism in these videos. I hope this becomes the de facto standard for at least a large segment of video for many years or decades to come.
Your videos make people happy so you make a real difference in the world. Some people with certain jobs may not feel it but you most definitely should. :)
Congratulations! I have loved watching your journey over the summer! I loved the tone of all these videos and found them so inspiring. I have recently got back into hiking myself after watching your videos and remembering just how therapeutic it is to be outdoors. Thanks for bringing us along.
The Final Countdown! :D
Patrick Roehrman wooohoo!
What is this strange moisture leaking from my eyes?
I'm 57 years old and have learned so much from you in the last 3 years. Thank you for sharing.
Much love to you, Dear Dixie. You've touched my life.
Looking forward to your next adventure.
CONGRATULATIONS! I put off watching the last episode because I didn't want it to end. Thanks for all you have shared in the last few years.
Dixie, I have watched you since the beginning of the AT and I am so happy for you and amazed by your strengths and accomplishments! Congratulations on your triple crown!!! Congratulations to Perk too! And also Aaron for his first
Thru-hike on the most challenging of the 3!
Congratulations on your Triple Crown! Your journey was so incredible and a pleasure to follow. I will be hiking the PCT in 2021 and you are the one who inspired me to do so. Thank you for everything!
Watching in Australia
Congratulations Dixie, Perk on your Triple Crown and to Arron on your first Thur hike you guys are inspiration to all of us
Thank you so much , for taking us on your adventure. Congrats on you triple crown.
Congratulations to all 3 of you! Thank you for sharing your adventures with those of us who are house-bound or unable to do what you have done. I wish you all the best and look forward to your future postings on new adventures. Enjoy a well-earned rest for a while. Blessings on you.
Thank you Dixie for sharing your journey with me. I feel very privileged. But mostly I am elated that you achieved your goal and looking forward to seeing what you get up to next.
I have no words to express how watching you... excited, in awe, terrified, etc. Congratulations!
SO proud of you. And you know what? As I have watched your videos, I've actually started to have less and less time to watch because I'm actually getting out there and planning things for myself. Your impact is so much further beyond likes, views, and subscribers - you're making and have made a positive difference in a lot of people's lives. I'm hiking the Manistee River Trail in Michigan this weekend to test some gear for my PCT thru hike next year.
Congratulations, Dixie and Perk on your fantastic Triple Crown achievements! Thanks for sharing all this beautiful footage and the good times you had with us . Thanks, Aaron for the magnificent editing job and for the beautiful and very appropriate music throughout! Well done, all of you! You did good!!! :)
I’m not a person who puts up posts but I had to for this. Congrats on an amazing accomplishment Dixie. You’re determination and drive inspires us all to step out of our comfort zones and live life. Thank you for letting us be a part of it. 🙏
so proud of you Dixie...hope to see you on the trail one day...god speed and happy trails young lady
Super congrats Dixie, it’s been so much fun watching your adventure. Can’t wait to see what you doing next. Thanks for taking us all along with you
Congratulations on your triple crown! Been watching your hike through AT, PCT and CDT, enjoying every moment. Thank you so much for sharing your adventures, a true inspiration and entertainment. I wish you many good coming hikes and life-experiences. I promise, like many, to follow on a digital distance if you choose to keep sharing them.
I just want you to know you have inspired me. I am retiring from my job soon and will be attempting the PCT 2019. I have watched you throughout your journeys and you prove every time that there is sooo much good in humanity. You are a true gem. thank you!........bucketlist
Congratulations Dixie to You, Perk, and Aaron. You guys are tough, brave, resilient and completely impressive. Thanks for inviting us on your quest for the Triple Crown. "God Bless" you all on your future endeavors. 👍
What an incredible journey! I only recently found your videos and have been watching them since just before Christmas. I finished watching this this morning. I shed a few tears of joy and bittersweet sorrow with you. I am in awe of what you have accomplished. Thank you for sharing you experiences with us all. God bless you and all who undertake these wonderful journeys. I'm inspired.
Every time I watch your finishing a trail I get all chocked up. Once again YOU DID IT ! ! ! !
Congratulations! Seeing you walk along with an umbrella in the snow reminded me of Mr. Tumnus. So now I have two favorites walking in the snow with an umbrella.
Congrats on the Triple Crown. Thanks for taking us all on your journey.
Congratulations on completing your hike. Thank you for sharing it with us and inspiring future CDT hikers! I especially liked the drone footage. Too bad you had to end your hike on the road, but you do what you have to do to stay safe and make the best of things as they come. But if I have to end my future CDT hike in a similar manner, I know myself and it just wouldn't sit well inside me. I'd likely spend the winter planning a return trip to Glacier in better conditions to hike and see what I may have missed. I hope you make it back to Glacier one day. Good luck on your next adventure where ever it takes you.
Congratulations on achieving the triple crown, and I look forward to following you along on your next adventure, wherever it may be.
What a journey! I hope you keep searching for the answers that you seek. Kudos on all the behind-the-scenes work to keep up this production, it's a feat in itself!
I HAVE WATCH YOU SINCE THE ACT PCT AND NOW THE CDT!!!! All 3 years I have been with you. Wow this was a journey and motivation for me. Thank you. Congratulations and good job... I can’t say I have ever been proud of a stranger... but I am of you Dixie, well done. ..... well done
Wow, what a hell of a ride it was! I'm in tears... thank you for the fantastic videos and deep insights and beautiful sunsets throughout your journey, felt like I was right there with you. It's the end of a journey but a beginning of a new journey at the same time.
Congrats on your awesome achievement! Curious to see what comes next. Please keep all of your fans updated.
I’ve been watching you since the beginning, Dixie. What an adventure it’s been! Congratulations, dear. You have so much to be proud of. I’ll be looking forward to your next adventure. And I’ll hopefully be embarking on my own section hike in the near future! Keep at it! 👑 👑 👑
