Right on Grumpy. My wife and I had the pleasure of meeting ER on Father’s Day on the trail. Spent an hour waiting out a thunderstorm talking to him and his son. Made my day
You are so right about ER. Very humble guy who is always looking out for the A.T. and its hikers/vlogers. I also agree with what you said about his vloger list for the 2018 class. Jimmy's videos also helped many vlogers out there. But....its content like team G.G. AND G that make it so fun, because you engage with us. Thanks for that.
Well that was incredibly kind. I agree with all you said about ER and Jimmy for sure as well. We thank you for taking time out of your day to watch me. Will keep trying to make it good for ya!
Hey Grumpy, I’ll be 76 in a couple of weeks and 30# overweight and I want to thank you for your channel. Just finished 57.2 yo yo hike in NJ and thought of you often, rain, rain, tweaked my left knee but more importantly listening to your wisdom and only do what you can do. I could go on but this is your channel and I just had to say a BIG thanks. Take Care
Warren it makes me feel good to hear this. Not because you compliment me(thank you though) but because other people are striving to better themselves because Of me just being me . I appreciate you always being behind me, and trust me, this gives me more motivation to go further and push harder. Maybe one day we will hike together.
Gucci Girl and Grumpy I would be honored to hike with you. I'm back home after doing 57.2 and have recovered expect for my knee which I hyper extended, oh well, suck it up and move on. I am looking forward to a couple of cooler nights to take a hike in the NJ Pine Barrens. Take Care
In 1980, my wife and I honeymooned at Skyland. In 2016 I got off the AT there on 3Jul and in 2017 I resumed my NOBO from there on 1Apr. Like reddmage said good food and good memories.
You are a pro in the rain by now. The gifts that the trail is about to give are going to be mighty awesome and beautiful. I have much hope and spirit for your journey. Soak it in. 😀😁👻🙋♂️🕊🕊
It has been amazing how just a simple action by Early Riser has made such a difference for the 2018 thruhikers and those of us who have been following them. He created an extended tramily before anyone even started their thruhike. Glad to see you back on the trail! The bit of chill in the air (comparatively speaking) makes for much nicer hiking.
i hated the climb to marys rock ,btw me and my daughter are leaving today for the 'park' if i canit get on e loop at big meadows im crusing to lewis campground. maybe we'll see ya ,watch the weather ..good video ..
I never thought of you as a "Wallflower" = a person who has no one to dance with or who feels shy, awkward, or excluded at a party. Could this be a new trail name? :) Do you accept?
Thanks for the words bro. This community is an amazing group of great humans. You and GG are prime.examples of that.
Thank you. So many people look up to you, not just because you are tall.
I told you you’re a legend ER. Good to see you back on trail Grumpy.
Thanks Joe. I keep chasing that dream!

That's very cool. He was on a mission when we met him

Even when I am not hiking the A.T., we spend enough time here that the staff know us by name
Your soaking it all in! Literally! Lol. Keep on hiking bro.
Man this rain just won't leave me alone.
Kind of nice to have a fairly easy 1st day back. Glad GG could stay the night! Hopefully the weather will improve. ☀️
It was nice. Yes I hope so too but it doesn't look good for weather.
It's great to see you back on the trail... Stay safe & Hike On Sir!
Staying safe, I need to stay dry
You're back on the trail... Rain is in the forecast... They seem to go together...
so nice to see you back on the trail
Thanks. I feel at home
Glad your journey is continuing. We always look forward to your next vlog. 73
Won't have much service for the next 70 miles, hopefully daily pictures on Instagram

Thank you
Welcome back!
Glad to be back
Awesome, Grumpy! Some familiar places! Keep it up! Happy hiking!!
I know you have been all through this place
You are a pro in the rain by now. The gifts that the trail is about to give are going to be mighty awesome and beautiful. I have much hope and spirit for your journey. Soak it in. 😀😁👻🙋♂️🕊🕊
GG and I were talking about how much it rains on us while hiking. We are pros at it
@@GucciGirlandGrumpy I absolutely love that quote. I can definitely connect to that.
Good to see you back on the trail
Really good to be back
Good to see you moving again. The trail will heal you! I was out for three days this weekend...was good to detach from the matrix.
I hear that. I was not liking the Matrix at all

You are right. ER is the Trail magic master. Air feels great.
Oh Skyland, good food, good friends, great memories.
Yes. It was a good day back when we were all together. No moonshine drinks tonight though.
A typical nice weather day for you grumpy lol!
Yes it is
Your wife has certainly been supportive of your hike with her shuttle service. Looks like you might hav a few mire days of rain.
I think we have clear skys for about two hours tomorrow
2 MPH is ok in my short legged book ER definitely gave hiking a big boost for sure. Glad you’re on your hike
Thank you. ER is the man
i hated the climb to marys rock ,btw me and my daughter are leaving today for the 'park' if i canit get on e loop at big meadows im crusing to lewis campground. maybe we'll see ya ,watch the weather ..good video ..
Very cool. Hope to meet up with you
I know you are glad to be back out there. Thanks for sharing all those views! Take care of the knees.
Ha ha. Anytime!
Back on trail........l hope the weather cooperates with you a bit better for a while. Tip of the 🎩 grumpy
Thank you. I don't think it will but I will take what I can get

Absolutely not. Lol
@blessingOfAdventure I have seen him dance once in all of these years. He exemplifies the word wallflower.
