Hello Ramdino just giving you an update on my boy Zeb. He made it to the halfway point and was able to hitch a ride into catlinburg for the night to get things dried out. According to him Monday night the temps plummeted and went from heavy rain to blizzard conditions. He said he never experienced such quick change in temps and ferocious winds. Tomorrow he heads back out for the second half. He said the smokies are no joke.
@@Ramdinohikes just updating you on my son Zeb. After drying out a night in gatlinburg, the next morning he was dropped back off on trail. Spent one night at pecks corner then to standing bear now over max patch. He is now beyond that having the time of his life. His mother and I hear from him about every other day.
I was looking at the support list and have a suggestion for a tab, "Home State." I have not found anyone to follow this year yet, and thought it would be nice to narrow down some choices. Anyhow, just a thought. Thanks for weekly videos! It give me something to watch on Sunday nights!
Thank you for all the information. We will definitely keep Bon V in our prayers. When and where would be a good place to set up a trail magic in the state of Maryland?
@@Ramdinohikes thank you 🙏. I’ll be on the trail starting April 2024 solo hiking. I guess I can start in 2025, I thought they might have been coming through a little earlier. Thank you for all that you do for the AT community. May God continue to bless!
Great update, Ramdino. Thanks! And I know lots of people are pushing LMNT, but I will say, I 100% agree it’s the best I’ve used so far. Also, praying for Bon Voyage and her husband. God is faithful. Not too much longer for Little Bear and I to be out there! Mid March is coming quick! Much love to Fresh Ground! So thankful for what he does! 🙏🏼💙 Nice mug! 😊 Hope you have a great day, friend! Cheers to the week!
Always love hearing the updates! I will be headed out there for another attempt next year =) I know we always say this, but I swear the bubble is getting earlier and earlier every year! I'll be praying for Bon Voyage and her husband!
Thanks Ramdino , always a must watch. My trail name is Texoma and I’m planning on a flip flop this year . I hiked over 700 miles last year before an injury took me off trail. So I’m giving it a second shot. Keep up the good work.
I’m having to push my thru to 2025, my Dad had a serious stroke and after 3 weeks is still in the hospital so it’s not the time to be gone for 4-6 months. I still plan to do a LASH when he’s more stable and recovering well. I’ll be posting on my channel soon to let my subscribers know, but my heart is with all the 2024 hikers and I’ll be back to start my NOBO this time next year ❤
Great update Ramdino❣️😎🥰😃 So sorry to hear of the cancer diagnosis for Bon Voyage’s husband, prayers for them and their loved ones ❤️🙏🏻 We have some pretty amazing hikers out there, braving these southern Appalachian winter weather conditions❗️🥴🫨😳 My cap is off to them❣️🧢 😃😎 Thank so much, Ramdino, for all the love and time you put into these updates-it is a Herculean effort❣️🥰 Your help was invaluable to me, as I ventured out on Trail to become a Trail angel, when I knew zero about the Appalachian Trail❣️🤔 And I Thank You, with a heart full of gratitude❣️❤️ You help so many more than you’ll ever know❣️❤️ God bless and keep y’all safe out there, as you go❣️Happy Trails❣️🥾🥾🥾😃
Great update! So much info! The Smokies have been so beautiful on the several hikers I've followed. I will chime in with you regarding LMNT, an outstanding product! I used YOUR link Ren and ordered it and received the FREE sample pack with my order because of it!
I sure am enjoying your videos. Love hearing about the hikers and their hikes. So sorry to hear about Bon Voyage’s husband. Healing thoughts and prayers to them.
Looking forward to hearing trail angels and trail magic on the 2024 AT thru hikers this year. ✌️♥️💪🇺🇸 Blessings out to Bon Voyage and family. Thanks again Ramdino.
Prayers for Bon Voyage and her husband. Also God bless Fresh Grounds for what he does. Amazing how things work out. We were looking for someone to watch our house and pets while we hike this year and just so happened we have friends that are missionaries in Kenya. Us being gone gives them a place to live while they are home.
Hello not to tech savvy but I do know how to tune in to you every Sunday. I wanted to let you know my son Zeb is hiking the AT this year he is 21 no trail name yet. As a father I’m a little concerned, for he just entered the smokies this morning ,he is hiking alone. He started Friday feb 2 at springer.He don’t have a utube channel, but I will let you know his status
Sending Bon Voyage and her husband prayers! 🙏. So glad triple one is still doing good! How nice of him to carry someone lost item. 🙂 I’m following 5 stack through the Smokies and yes it certainly is dangerous in some spots! 🥶❄️☃️ Great update today. You do a great job Ramdino! Have a great week! Hike On. 🇺🇸⛺️🥾🧗♀️🏈
@Navy1977 just remember the average person doesn't have a real estate portfolio and less than 100k in investments so with inflation being 7 then 9 then 7 and the cumulative effect it affects the average American
Maybe one day the trail will be handicap accessible......until then, I vicariously live through all who hike the trail. Thank you for keeping us updated.
@Ramdino, i start my thru hike towards the end of February. Do you need anything or want someone to relate trail info. Never done a thru hike or even hiked over 30 miles. Just gonna take a step at a time and hopefully a beer at a time.
Yes, please send in any news , trail conditions and of course any thing about your hike you would like to share. You could even do a weekly "30 video we could feature each week
@@Ramdinohikes Do you have an email address or something i could send it to you. I dont use any social media, thinking about doing a YT channel for the AT. Not sure;
Thank you for everything Ramdino! Do you know if the approach trail going to be closed all season, or will they reopen in a couple weeks? I unfortunately can't thru hike this year, but I wanted to go down to Georgia and do the approach trail for the experience of it sometime in mid-march.
Mischief on the Trail, ran into a burn on his last video in FL as he was heading to Tallahassee. I guess it wasn’t posted or marked… Here in Franklin NC we’ve been having nice very weather, in general.
I wish FanDuel would make a Appalachian Trail Full hike betting area....... half the people Ive saw making full hike announcements are not mentally or physically ready. If you can hardly walk around in life without a pack full of gear and food you probably not making it 2200 miles. It sucks these people think of no one but their self's, put everyone at risk around them and when something does happen now you put life on the line for rescue workers.
Very interesting and enlightening about yall tithing and helping others help others! God bless you and Fresh Ground!
Thanks so much for all you do! Happy hiking!!
Thanks for these updates!
You bet!
Another great update! Thanks for all the tireless work that you do for the hiker community!! Happy hiking!!
Thanks! You too!
Great episode!!! I will be back on the support list for my lash this year! Then heading to the Colorado Trail in July!
Have fun!
Sorry about Bon Voyage and appreciate your work!
Thank you!
Not sure if you know...but Fortune.. From Fortune Adventures is in the Smokies somewhere in the beginning of them

That's a great idea!. I'll try and implement that for 2025

Preciate cha
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE HIKING!!

Thank you for all the information. We will definitely keep Bon V in our prayers. When and where would be a good place to set up a trail magic in the state of Maryland?
The bubble should be in that area around late May thru June. Tks for being a trail angel

Thanks so much

And I know lots of people are pushing LMNT, but I will say, I 100% agree it’s the best I’ve used so far.

Much love to Fresh Ground! So thankful for what he does! 🙏🏼💙 Nice mug! 😊

You are so welcome
Your reports are my Sunday highlight. Thanks😊
Wow, thank you!
I love this channel. 👍
Glad to hear it!
Love the show and what it stands for. Love what fresh ground does as well. walkNtalk (Todd)
Praying for Bon Voyage and family for healing and guidance in this very difficult time.
Thanks Ramdino! The information you provide will be invaluable on my 2nd attempt of the AT in 2025! Watching you every week!!! 🥾🥾😎🏕️
Fantastic!
Thanks Ramdino , always a must watch. My trail name is Texoma and I’m planning on a flip flop this year . I hiked over 700 miles last year before an injury took me off trail. So I’m giving it a second shot. Keep up the good work.
Good luck
I use PRIME DRINK MIX!
I've found mixing the chocolate varieties of LMNT with hot water makes a rich, tasty drink on its own, even without mixing with coffee or hot cocoa.
That's a great idea!
Prayers for Bon Voyage and her husband. Thanks for the update. Have a great week!
Thanks so much

Wow good and bad timings. Hoping for the best.
Fingers crossed!
Thank You for news and update. I'll be on the trail in marche 10th. Coming from Québec Canada.
Sending prayers and positive thoughts for Bon Voyage's husband and her.

When does the NoBo bubble typically reach Newfound Gap? Planning some trail magic drops.
The NPS will shut you down at NFG. They don't like trail magic
Davenport Gap would be better
Just crossed over newfound gap today… no way the snow in the smokies is that deep…
Yea, it's melted quite a bit
Great information as always, very appreciated and thank you so very much, all the very best, and happy trails.
Prayers for Bon Voyage and her husband. Starting to get busy with hikers. Thanks.

Sunday, February 11th: Thank-you for the update! Ross08
What is the weather forecast for the Georgia portion of the Appalachian Trail end of February beginning of March?
Hike your own hike..bsafe

I'm no expert but I'd say the economy has a lot to do with the numbers dropping.
I'd say for those that are pay check to pay check you are right

A pedestrian bridge in VA but not over the Palisades Parkway. Interesting very Interesting 😡
May I please have the trail angel information . I'm on trail now and on your registration
Send me a dm or email
Watch for landmines 💩 around shelters in the Smokies. That yearly problem has already begun.
Thank you for everything Ramdino! Do you know if the approach trail going to be closed all season, or will they reopen in a couple weeks? I unfortunately can't thru hike this year, but I wanted to go down to Georgia and do the approach trail for the experience of it sometime in mid-march.
Not sure yet
What does it mean stepped off the trail? They quit?
Typically yes, although if I say stepped off on their hike it means they stepped out of the matrix and onto trail life.
Mischief on the Trail, ran into a burn on his last video in FL as he was heading to Tallahassee. I guess it wasn’t posted or marked…
Here in Franklin NC we’ve been having nice very weather, in general.

Like your tik tok philosophy
It’s all about Jesus
Amen to that
Nope dont want to exclude anyone. I'm sure that wasn't the point.God loves us all the same whether we reciprocate or not.
🏔🏕👍✌️
I like them salty af.
Oh yea
Amicolola please. not amicola. It’s a indigenous meaning “Falling waters”
Thank you
Thanks!
Thank you for your support and belief in my mission.
