- On Day 1, I hiked 7.5 miles of the approach trail to Springer Mountain (the southern terminus of the AT) and then 8.1 miles of the AT to Hawk Mountain Shelter.

I have a feeling you're going to acquire a lot of fans, Molly.
Have fun, take care, and happy trails.
You are awesome I have never seen a video where the hiker does 16 miles the first day!!!!! I hope you can continue at that pace. Hike your hike great video...💥💫💫🌟🌟🌗🌠🌠🏆🏆🏆
You are hiking very strong! Just be careful that you don't injure yourself with the miles that you are doing. Most people leave the lodge and just do the approach trail to Spinger and stay there then do Spinger to Hawk on day two. It was good that you didn't have any hiking problems going that far the first day, but you were probably sore the second day. Usually, I advise hikers not to do a 20 until at least the Smokies. Please take it easy the first week at least and get your legs, knees, ankles and feet used to the trail. The trail is 10% physical and 90% mental. There is a lot to overcome later down the trail, in your mind. It will seem like you are not getting in hiking condition and the climbs seem like you still run out of air and the lactic acid still builds in your legs. Well the climbs really don't get any easier, but you will find that you will be taking bigger steps and going faster. Once you're in hiking condition and you get your trail legs, you will find that almost any climb will only last 20 minutes. You are doing great but don't rush. Let the hike come to you. Good luck!
Hike safe, Hike strong, Have fun!

Lovely uplifting my friend, shots and ambience are brilliant! Happy trails 🥾🥾
You’re my frist AT hiker of 24 that I’m following. ✌🏻👊🏼
I just saw you in a hiker loaner clothes fashion show. 👏👏😂
Yeah, really good start to your videos, Molly Rose, very well done indeed. I hope you're staying strong and safe, keeping patient and enjoying your adventure. Thanks so much for taking us along. All the best. Jack NYC
Wow! You did have nice weather for the start! You'll have plenty of worse weather later, but it sure is nice to have great weather for the first day. Seeing the Springer shelter reminded me of when we stayed near there. We were tenting, but we could see the shelter. Be careful not to overdo it in Georgia, because that's easy to do. Enjoy those bear boxes while you have them -- I think only Georgia provides those. That map at the end was super cool!
Great first day. I love your cheerfulness and keeping that through a 16.6 mile first day is incredible. As others have said the active map at the end really puts context to the miles.
Love the map at the end
Thanks, you’re doing great best of luck, safe journeys. ✌🏻👊🏼
Go Molly Go!!!
Great start, Molly! I think you are my new favorite AT thru-hike vlogger. Your joy of finally being on the trail heading toward Katahdin comes through in the video and brings joy to my heart. Of course, as you have said, there will be many peaks, valleys, and meadows along the way. Thank you for sharing your adventure with us.
Nice video. I love the map/route intreaction at end! Beautiful day, surprised there wasn't a "ton" of other hikers. Have a fantastic journey!!
I love the route flyover at the end. Both graphically and physically impressive first day.

After watching a different vlogger's AT hike, this video popped up. So, I just watched this one and " A Little About Me" and I'm so impressed with the editing and content! I'm in NC and I think it's neat that the furthest east you'd been was ND which is the also the furthest west that I've been. Looking forward to more videos and will be cheering you on to Katahdin. Blessings!
Can’t even imagine how surreal! I’m heading out next year. Love the end map!
Molly, when there comes a time when you need to fill in space to talk about, if you don’t mind, & if it’s not too personal, could you talk about how you took your leave of absence from work?
Be careful
Wow. Great first day! Big miles and big smiles 😊❤ nice one Molly
I know how thrilling it is to finally be on trail. You did great for your first day. Be careful and enjoy!
really enjoying your videos! thanks for sharing!
Prayers for a safe and exciting adventure!
Excellent start! I look forward to watching your progress. Keep smiling! You're awesome!
Congratulations on your start of the AT!! Good luck be careful and be safe. Happy trails 😊 Be here watching you
What a great start and a beautiful first day. Welcome to the Blue Ridge Mountains, Molly.
Great start, good video of your first day!
Happy start! I love how joyful you are just to be there. ❤ Wishing you an amazing journey!
Molly, so glad to see you having such a great time. Absolutely gorgeous first day! Wow. And good on you for taking the blue blaze to Long Creek Falls. It is a gem. You have done a LOT of hiking so I don't have to tell you to stop and smell the roses. Take the blue blazes on occasion. There are a LOT of beautiful things to see when you blue blaze on the AT. No, you can't take them all or it would take you 8 months to finish. But there are some good ones that just add a lot to the experience. Long Creek is one of them. Looking forward to following your journey. Stay safe and God bless.
Great editing! Enjoy your hike.
I think you should smile more 😂wait till the end in Maine. Your going to be a mess. Good luck and have fun
Congrats on your first day on the AT; a 15 mile day ! Great start.
