      Cory, just curious. Have you noticed how crooked you carry your pack? Is there a reason?

    • @SecondChanceHiker
      @SecondChanceHiker 5 лет назад +2

      chadbrow I believe it’s me falling a lot I really messed it up. We have played with it multiple times. It’s annoying. I really want a new pack as this one is really to small for my frame. I contacted Granitegear who makes my pack to see if they have solutions.

      chadbrow while on the PCT last year, for 20 miles, my pack was crooked too. I'm not sure why but it was more comfortable that way. I think I need a new backpack. This one isn't right for me.

    SCH made it BTW!!!! I am now a fan as well. I discovered Cory by following Mary Mansfield's hike as she was at Walkers Pass then onto Kennedy Meadows ( all my back yard growing up in Ridgecrest) thats when Cory came into the picture. ( no pun intended!) Then I started watching Sara Dhooma, and a few more. Kinda made me homesick but I guess 30 years in the Desert and 33 years in NW Montana......I'll stay here thank you!! But now Panda I'll have to watch your hike as well. I remember folks talking about your trail name..... Thanks man!

    Panda, found your channel because I am following Second Chance and followed his link. I follow many hiker vlogs and especially PCT hikers. I must say your footage and video editing is some of the best I have ever seen. I love how you tie in the hikers you meet and interview them. This is truly original. Your finished product is documentary worthy. I will be following your journey and hope your channel explodes the way Cory's did.

    Cory is the BEST person. He’s not changing into a “better person” but rather a “healthier” person. Cory is amazing!

    Found your channel by watching Second Chance's channel, I have to say what a great friend you were to Cory when he was sick! Your videos are amazing, I could watch them all day long! I don't know what you do for work but you could be the voice of documentaries!

    I found you through Second Chance. I think you taught him some camera moves. 🤗thank you for that! Tee hee! I’m really enjoying the class of 2019! I’m 50, plan on being out there in four years when my daughter graduates high school! Look for me in 2023!😁

    I followed "Second Chance" on my other account. I think that he was successful even though he did not loose 200lbs and did not make it to the northern terminus on a real thru hike. He did an amazing job and I find him inspirational. He did however find happiness and fell in love. Success! Thanks Panda. Another cool video.

    Cory did very well! He did make it to the monument but he didn’t do the entire route! His injury in Oregon was one of the things that prevented a total through hike and he started pink blazing.

    Wow! All I can say is wow!! I have been following Second Chance for quite some time and because of that, your video was recommended to me. I felt incredibly blessed to have watched your video. That was an amazing job. You fit more into 5 minutes than most do in 30 min (myself included). Phenomenal job. I predict your channel is going to explode when subscribers find you. I can't wait to watch your videos!! Thanks so much for doing what you do, I know what time and effort goes into a video like this!!!

    @lovpizza1320 5 лет назад +3

    Hey panda! Just watched your first 3 videos! Your cinematography and your feel of your video being like a documentary. You're so good at making film. My husband and I just learned about the PCT last year through RUclips. We're Californians we've been here our whole lives. We watched a young lady post her RUclips videos from Mexico to Canada last year. So this year we started watching about a half a dozen people who are youtubing their Journey. Just found you panda. And I want to tell you honestly your quality of your film about your adventure is outstanding. Your style is so clean and accurate. The feeling of it being a documentary but yet a feeling of closeness you have to this trail is overwhelmingly beautiful. So very proud of you. Well my husband I will definitely be watching the rest of your journey! We actually had fun a couple weekends ago and drove down to Julian helped out his Trail angels for the day and handed out warm hand warmers to the lady hikers for their Journey. So we are wishing you all the best and we really look forward to your next videos. Take care be safe and make good decisions. Shelley and Hugo

    Wow. Some of those shots must have been a lot of effort to set-up. Having to put the camera in place, hike past, and then go all the way back to retrieve it. Impressive!
    Also - very cool to interview Cory. I think there are a LOT of people looking at him and wishing him success!

    Damn you make good videos. Great job on your editing top notch. I’ve been following Cory since his third day on the trail it’s been amazing journey. So many people are watching his videos that were in the same position and are now getting up and going out and hiking. Someone needs to do a book or movie on this guy. Cory has so much positive energy even in the bad times.
