    I would love it if you could show how you wear your blueberry rain ponch/coat, like when you have it on you backpack and then switch to fully wearing it. Thank you for the entertaining and very real struggles that a thru hike of the AT present. Love your videos!

    The lasts keep marching on in. I've kinda taken to thinking of the AT like ones journey of life. Definitely alot of parallels.

    It seems so final. I’ve absolutely LOVED seeing your daily progress. And, um… I don’t know what the rules would be on being a RUclipsr onstage…. But I could SO see you YouTubing a rehearsal season through the end of show. 😁You are, and always have been, well-spoken and interesting to be around. No matter what you elect to do regarding YT in the future, thank you for YTing your Appalachian Trail adventure.

    When you do your post hike gear video I would like to hear why you could do without the items you sent home prior to the 100 mile wilderness but needed those items before you got to that point in your trek. Be safe those last miles, we will be watching.

  • @wendygrw

    So wonderful to see you so happy doing your last resupply, having the lobster roll, and getting your pack weight down. And preparing for the 100 mile wilderness and summit push. Your excitement is contagious!

    Awwww, BadBat! 🥹 Today is the first time that "I" actually cried watching your daily vid. You have no idea how much your AT journey has meant to so many of us. We never even met you and yet, we showed up every day to accompany you on your 2200 mile trek. You're a special person and we're going to miss you. When you started your journey, I was in treatment for severe depression and homebound. As a former hiker, I stumbled upon your videos, as well as the incredible Nahamsha's. I can honestly say that all of our journeys paralleled metaphorically. The struggles, the joys, the frustrations, the delights, the obstacles, and finally the acceptance of what life throws our way. Your vids were always something to look forward to (which is crucial in life). Even on your darkest days on trail you inspired because I wanted to "shake you out of it". I was yelling at your videos going "Come on, BadBat! Come on! You can do it!!!" When, really? I was yelling at myself to "not give up" on life because I thought about it. So, as you remember & reminisce & recall & rejoice, remember this... YOU were instrumental in helping a stranger in the battle for her life. I am back in the world now having completed 3 therapy programs... Mental Health, BadBat, & Nahamsha. Your life has meaning and your AT journey was part & parcel to my recovery. (But, no pressure. Ha Ha!) That's why I love the internet... I get to meet people filled with light in a dark world. You are one such person and I will miss you terribly. Don't forget to pop in once in awhile on RUclips to say hello, okay? Tell Nick, hi, too! But, until then... On this side of the camera, we still have 10 days to go!!! Woooo-Hoooo! Soooo, Hundred Mile Wilderness, here she comes!!! Please tell "Irish" we love her, too, and will miss her (esp. her sink up to her hips in mud survival)! 🤎☘️🥾 She was absolutely instrumental in helping you accomplish your hike (along with PigPen & Woodchuck & all your other rando hiking buddies). Cuz, LORD KNOWS, you LOVE hiking with other people and not alone! 😁 Upward & Onward, Double-B! 💯⬆️🥾🥾🦯🦯🔆🦇🤎

      I am so glad you are able to find joy in my AT journey! I'm definitely not going anywhere after the daily videos are over, but videos will be once a week instead. Thank you so much for sharing your story. I'm so happy to have been a part of it 🦇

    You have your priorities straight. I love that you shared your journey with us. But you don't need to give up this last bit of time on the trail It should be spent anyway you want to spend it. You have earned it. 😅🌂

  • @Sneakerfever1
    @Sneakerfever1 Год назад +1

    Wish I suggested sooner to also try New England fried clams w bellys dipped in tarter sauce. Steamers are also delicious imo. Ugh on places being closed. Recall an ice-cream place or similar being closed on the way up. Maybe coffee too!

    This vid has been the most poignant so far…you seem to be finally convinced that you will complete this voyage of mind and body. Go forth and conquer and take this nirvana into the rest of your life. We beez proud of you.

    Lobstah roll, salivating just thinking about it. So glad you are starting the 100 miles tomorrow, sorry that it means that shortly we will see you on top of Mamma K and that is all there is. After having followed you for so long, we will miss you.

    @tommybewick Год назад +1

    Your time gap is definitely not huge. 1 to 2 weeks is normal. I have followed people in the past who had one to two months lag, which is kind of annoying. I did see your summit picture on Instagram and on Facebook the day you summited a couple weeks ago, congratulations! 🎉
