You’re doing so amazing, Lori! I’ve been following you even before you started, when you packed your hair dryer in your pack. 😂 Just keep putting one foot in front of the other and be safe! Praying for you!
If I could get to you,I would buy you a drink! Seriously, I can’t imagine how hard this is for you, don’t look back and just take it one day at a time. Praying that you have good weather!
I have been watching you since your first video and look forward to each video. I have truly been inspired by you. You got this!!! I can’t wait to see you summit Katahdin!!! Just keep walking your own walk.

Fancy finding you here, as you strive forward on an epic and classic hike, while I am striving to reengage my enjoyment of outdoor explorations and have much to brush up on with gear since 1989 / 90.

Those chicken-sized birds are grouse. Look at a birdbook to determine which kind-I'm thinking sprouse grouse. Glad you were able to be lifted in spirit by nature. You did GREAT-don't be too discouraged by the challenging trail. You got this! Think of the tales you will be able to tell in the future. You have been so fearless along your hike. You will succeed 🚶♀️👍
Wow Lori I had no idea, You got this! I will be here the rest of the way. Maybe one of these days I will be as brave as you to accomplish this. What an adventure ❤
Remember HEAD UP, Feet Foreword. You are doing great and it's a hard trail, but you are still heading North. Getting some beautiful views. Stay Safe and HIKE ON!!!
Keep your chin up!!! I believe in you! Honestly I was expecting you to quit before VA but you surprised me and now I’m like yessss You got this girl!!! Everyday I’m waiting for your videos which I watch with my teenager daughter and we feel like we know you already. Im in MA by the NH border, let us know if you need anything. Again, you are an amazingly strong woman! You can do this! Just go slow… Sending love ❤
Thank goodness you made it to the hut. I hope you get a stiff drink after the whites. Hang in there and don’t worry about filming. It’s always a relief to see your hearts on comments so we know you made it through the whites! Big hugs.😊❤
Oh my gosh, my heart is feeling for you right now. The Presis was our big section hike for this year. We wanted to get it done “while we are able”…I’m 65, my husband is 66😂) Not knowing how brutal the downs were, we decided to do them SOBO for less elevation gain. Boy, were we wrong. I am almost having PTSD watching you climb up to South Twin mtn from Galehead. We started with Madison which about did me in. But you are still out there making your way. Slow and steady, slow and steady wins the race. There were times when we weren’t even able to go 1 mph (Madison ascent). I’m cheering mightily for you!!!! And p.s……I was very glad to climb UP that waterfall rather than go down it. Sending you all the hugs!!!!
Showing some raw emotion, stiff drink on its way. You are doing soo well at the "business end" of the trail. The views are stunning even on camera, must be so much better "live". Take care of your gashed leg, stay confident and take your time! ❤
Beautiful video. Please take care of yourself. You still have plenty of time to finish. Can you take a few days off to rest your knees and take care of your leg. So good rest would make a real difference. Praying you will feel stronger hang in there. You are doing a great job.
I may pick on you in the comments. But you are one tough lady! You have come so far. I know you can do this. I want to see you by the big sign at the end!
Wow, girl, you aren’t in Indiana anymore. The hills in Brown County look pretty much like ant hills compared to this. I have watched much younger women hikers have issues at this point, too. Please don’t beat yourself up about your struggles. Just wish you were hiking with a tramily. First and foremost stay safe!

Glad that you had a beautiful day to hike. Use your poles to stay safe. Your doing really great. Hopefully another beautiful day tomorrow 🙂🙂🙂

Find Your Pace 🙏⚓️☀️🏕️
Such a brave, smart, strong woman!
Hands on poles so more important than on the camera. I’m happy to see the trail and views when it’s safe to do so. Happy trails. 🤘🏻🥾⛰️🫎

10 miles on a tough day was an accomplishment. Stay healthy and you’ve got this!

so very proud of how you have conquered so much

I hear you on the descents! So so tough and slow going.. Great job on making it to Zealand Stealth site!

My heart went out for you this day. 🥺 Total respect for your hard work 💪hang in there…
That's cool, 3 partridges in search for a pear tree out on the trail. Or maybe that was the 3 French hens 😄They sure didn't seem afraid of you though.
Beautiful video. Please take care of yourself. You still have plenty of time to finish. Can you take a few days off to rest your knees and take care of your leg. So good rest would make a real difference. Praying you will feel stronger hang in there. You are doing a great job.

You got this, one foot in front of the other.
In the white, less filming and lower miles, 10 miles is a good day. You are doing great. Stay safe.

The whites are tough. 1 mile an hr is not that bad. Stay strong and hike your own hike
