- This was one of the best experiences of my life! Thru Hiking Entire Appalachian Trail in 120 Days (Full documentary)
In 2020, I attempted to thru-hike the entire Appalachian Trail. Unfortunately, the pandemic took me off the trail just 3 short weeks into my journey. :(
Delays happen... Although I had to wait a bit longer than anticipated, I’m grateful for the experience.
Fast forward to 2021, its Appalachian Trail redemption! That’s right! I’m stronger than ever and ready to conquer my dream of completing the Appalachian trail.
In this video, I vlogged my FULL 120 day journey on the Appalachian trail. Intrigued? Check out everything I did everyday on the trail! You will want to watch until the end.

Truly captures the adventures we had on the AT. Thanks for working so hard and putting this together my friend!
Thanks friend!!! It was so fun reliving the whole trail again!
Cody, you were a great hiking partner for Taylor
Cody I hope you are doing well! This was really fun to watch! I enjoyed your videos a lot!
It was great to re-watch you two and your adventure.
i thought at first you were the fiance, haha, dope time, thnx for sharing
Taylor,
You will remember this for the rest of your life.
I spent two whole summers hiking and backpacking around the country, 1968-1969.
I was 27-28 and really fit,
I'm almost 81 now and am still active, think of the wonderful adventures yet to come,
live life to the fullest, without regrets.
Have a wonderful marriage:)
Cheers,
Frederick "Rik" Spector
True American badass sir.....Hats off to you....
@@scottscipione9044 thank you
I am grateful I did that when I was young
Just wanted to tell you that your vlogs were the beginning of so many great changes in my life. I had been on disability for PTSD for 5 years and was miserable. I felt like life was passing me by and my fears ruled my life. One day your thru hike popped up on my feed and I followed along your hike. I asked my parents if they would watch my dogs to see if I could give it a try in 2022 and they agreed. Although I only made it 200 miles last year due to severe IT band syndrome and the PTSD, there was something so significant about experiencing the terror nightly and yet walking forward the next day. That experience and the kindness I experienced on trail gave me the courage to try it in real life. In September I started my first FT job in 5 years in special education. Through the anxiety, I kept moving forward. I plan to do a SOBO thru hike this year. I believe the lessons I've learned and the courage I've gained along the way will see me through. THANK YOU for all your hard work that went into sharing your journey. It led me to the first step in mine.
That's so nice to here. Thank you for sharing!! Congrats on the first FT job and best of luck in everything in your future. The trails have helped me in my life too. Hiking is good for the soul.
Congratulations! I know how difficult that was for you. I'm proud of you. Will you ever attempt it again?
@@LemireCassie yes! This Spring!
@@britrowland6148 Thats great! Will you be traveling with another person. I am so proud of you.
@@LemireCassie nope, going solo again. But I know I am not alone out there. They trail provided me with wonderful people last year and I am confident it will again. Thanks for your encouragement!
Can we take a moment to respect the man secure enough to let his wife to be hike alone in the woods with a good looking dude.
54 and been dreaming of this for at least 20 years.. Its now or never . God bless you. This was an inspiration..
Do it now because I dreamed about it my whole life and it's too late, I'm an arthritic 73 yo.
Go !
You are the first video I watch of the AT and have just confirmed in my head that at 65 when I retire this is going to be my first adventure in starting March of 2028. Thank you for this video and now I need to watch many more and start planning and getting mentally prepared.
After finishing the AT I will start building my Van to travel North and South America.
I hope it all comes to fruition for you. It is a dream I fancy that I would be able to do one if the three crowns in America. Sadly I am very unwell and know I wouldn't medically be able to do it. So I dream and watch through others. I am being greedy but if you have a channel or plan to make videos please let me know so I can enjoy it with you.
I'm 58 and diabetic. Your story has inspired me and some friends to attempt the hike March 2024. Thank you.
See you NOBO in March. I'll be starting on the 7th.
Damn, good luck brother
It’s April 22, 2024… did you start your adventure in March, 2024?
I really enjoyed your documentary!
I have Epilepsy which has hindered pretty much everything in my life. This September I have an appointment with my Neurologist who (I'm hoping) will clear me for a thru-hike!
I've never hiked, but if all goes as planned, I'll be part of the Class of 2025 💜
Thank you for sharing your inspiring journey, and I look forward to seeing more of your content. 🥂
I had to watch this a second time. I really enjoyed watching your through hikes. I didn’t find your channel until 2023 but have been following ever since. It’s amazing you’ve done this numerous times.
Hey Taylor! Ruschhour and Fiddle Head here. We thru-hiked back in 2006, and really enjoyed watching your full documentary! Your video brought back tons of memories from our own journey from GA--->ME. Your documentary might have just planted the seed for a 2026 (20-year anniversary) thru-hike for our family. 🙂
"I was awake every 30 minutes changing my sleeping position" I love hearing you go through the same exact problems I had, the memories are really flooding in (cries in happy)
Such an awesome compilation of all your AT videos. I still remember quite vividly watching every episode as soon as it came out! Great job!!
It took me all day to watch this. Your journey was epic and inspiring as you experienced not only the beauty of the trail, but the hardship AND friendship many desire. I followed you through your hike but this put the highlights that meant a lot to you personally. Thank you Taylor, and stretch, for being an inspiration to this later in life section hiker!
Thank you so much Taylor for making this video. I didn’t miss a post during your hike and lived vicariously threw you. I’m now motivated to perform trail magic work in the future.
Taylor, I just watched your documentary from beginning to end. It is absolutely wonderful. I just cannot believe the work and effort that you put into making it. I followed you on your thru hike and enjoyed your videos so much but this was even better. Thank you for the time and effort that you put into it. You are fantastic!
I'm looking forward to seeing the documentary. Thanks for all the hard work.
Can't wait to watch this all the way through at least once. I followed you all the way last year and really miss you and Cody this year. Am following a couple people this year but it just isn't the same as you two last year. Am hoping the future holds some more thru hikes for you and hope Cody goes as well, also the Chet for sharing you with all of us last year, some this year and in the future. Best of luck in all you do. Take Care and Be Safe God Bless
This was awesome! I was in tears with you at the end. You were the first thru hiker I started watching back in 2020 and followed you all the way through. Now I’m still watching thru hikers and getting myself out more (I’m in western Maine).
Absolutely EPIC! What a beautiful beautiful trail! Thanks for taking us with you.
Really enjoyed this video - you have such great enthusiasm. I finished the 4000 footers this past Summer and working on the 14ers of Colorado now. Your tears in the 100 mile wilderness somehow really touched me. It reminded me of just how much heart and love there is in the woods, and how it opens me up to stand and move through the wilds like that. And I had unexpected tears when you crossed into Maine and had the Baxter beer! :) What a wonderful journey! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for documenting. Absolutely love your positivity on the trail. Honestly this helps me BELIEVE
This was truly a privilege to watch , Taylor you are an inspiration and thanks so much for sharing this awesome hike with us all! I love your attitude and your positivity ❤
I just watched your journey and I just wanted to thank you for sharing. I was so amazed at your sweet attitude no matter what day experience you were having. I totally enjoyed the journey you shared. Congratulations 🍾🎊🎉
Absolutely brilliant that you've done this, thanks for all your work. Sincerest congratulations again on your achievement. All the best in whatever is next for you. Jack NYC
Awesome! You’re inspiring! Haven’t done any backpacking in 30 years but close to retirement I’m ready. Thank you for the wonderful video!!
I enjoyed following your adventures on the AT last year and enjoyed this recap, too. You did a great job with this video. You and Cody each found the most perfect hiking partner.
Wow. You made the entire hike look easy and fun, despite the harder parts. Your miles per day were incredible!! Again, no hardship ever appeared on your face! Great, great job documenting each portion of the trail. Thank you very much for sharing all of this with us!
I recently met you at your shop when I was on my way to Acadia… you are a wonderful person and can’t wait to watch the video!!! Keep up the beautiful work you do!
Congratulations on your achievement! I remember following you in 2020 and worrying about your difficult pre-Covid decisions. I'm glad you ultimately decided to leave the trail then; even happier that you didn't let that stop you from returning.
Just finished this morning. Great video really well done! Keep up the great work!
this is the most fascinating video i’ve ever watched like it actually makes me emotional. i grew up in a completely different environment than this and didn’t even know that people do things like this. i’m so proud of you and so excited to hopefully do this at some point too!!
You are my favorite AT blogger. I watched your attempt in 2020 and then the full journey in 2021. Love the work you put into this documentary !
Thank you for sharing your adventure. I really enjoyed watching it, and congratulations on completing the AT.
I watched the entire video. Thank you for documenting you thru-hik AT journey and congratulations. You never gave up. I am inspired.
Rewatching about a year after you made this and having just done a simple 2-day hiking loop of the Whites in this insane '23 wet, wet, wet summer season. Found myself thinking of your videos a lot being in NH and wanted to be sure you get credit for motivating people to get out and check it all out. (Your regular vlogs are even more responsible for that. If you ever have thoughts people aren't being motivated by you, they are!) Here is some more reassurance that your '23 AT hike decisions were so smart. Especially as they are your stomping grounds and YOU KNOW. This edit is special to the entire AT community, across years, and years to come. Go you!!
Thank you, thank you, thank you for this most amazing adventure. Have never done a hike like this before, but I completely identify ... because my "adventure" akin to this were my two cross-country bicycle rides (first one back in 1993 and then a second time in 1999). Totally different in so many ways, but so totally akin to your trek. All I can say is, "Three cheers, Taylor! You are a true hero!" This chronicle of your trek was one of the most fun experiences I've ever enjoyed, following your trail posts, reading your comments, and cheering you on. Well done. If you ever get to Ridgefield, CT, please look us up ... I'm Al, my wife is Jan ... and together, we are the only Galletly family (to the best of my knowledge) in Connecticut. Again, thank you for sharing your incredible adventure with all of us. It's been a real joy "being with you." xoxo
Thank you for taking us along Taylor.
Such a beautiful adventure you went on and completed 🙌
As a former Vermonter now living in N.C. just south of Franklin near the GA border in the mountains I know the beauty of the northern and southern Appalachians and loved this!!!
I almost planned a thru hike back to N.E. in 2017 but the realization of all the planning, financially and keeping life's balance and a bad knee kept me from taking the nearly 2200 mile leap.
I am very happy you did it and proud of you as it's many a true hikers and outdoors person achievement.
Congrats and thanks again for taking me on the adventure I couldn't put together.
John.
Cody seemed to be the best person to team with. He had such an easy going fun excellent attitude in the journey. The partners need to be balanced for such an expedition.
What a terrific doc of your hike. That was really well done. You should be proud of both the hike and the final Edit 🥳
Thanks!! I'm glad you enjoy it!
That was GREAT, thanks for taking us along. Congratulations
I followed your adventure from start to finish. Thanks for the documentary! It's really great and I've really enjoyed. Hike on!
A hiked katahdin this weekend as a day hiker and reaching the top meant so much. Watching this video of your journey... It brought alot of joy. Thank you for sharing. I cant wait to see your next adventure. P.S. I've never seen someone so excited to see New Jersey
Just watched your video "Connecting My Footsteps" from 7 months ago. I am so proud of you Taylor. When I made my
comment before I did not realize that you DID already do my suggestion about returning to Virginia to officially finish the
AT by hiking the missed section of trail. I could see in your eyes that it must have been a great feeling especially when
you consider the fact that you drove down there 13 hours and back. Also, you did it "within the year" anniversary. I live in
New Hampshire too and have my 4k certificate completed in 1992 and again in 2002. Hiked the AT from Hanover to Errol
and stayed at all the AMC huts. Greenleaf on Lafayette is the only one not right on the AT. Subscribed now and catching
up on all of your videos. Many memories.
Can I just tell you how amazing it felt to watch your AT adventure. You are one mad crazy girl. You did this solo for the most part. Thanks for a beautiful 1 hour video. All the best for the rest of your life.
All I can say is awesome seeing it again from beginning to end. Hopefully, one day for this old lady. Happy onward travels 🤘🏻🥾🏕
I watched you last year when you did the AT. Love the documentary! Thanx for sharing.
One great trip! I liked the fact you showed the pain, the scrapes and boo-boos you went through to make it. Through it all you kept your humor and smile and showed what a nice person you really are.
I doubt we saw a fraction of it
Absolutely love the hundred mile markers. That bit of creativity is truly pleasant on multiple levels. I appreciate Taylor’s trip journal. Kentucky
Best blog I’ve seen! Congratulations! 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you for sharing your journey!
Great video you put together! It was nice seeing it all together after watching you throughout the whole journey! Strong work.
This video has been very helpful and amazing to watch! I've been considering doing this trail myself and watching this video helps my decision!! I'm proud of you for taking the time to document and express concerns and conditions of the trails as well as mentioning the relief of your parents taking your bag for the day it can definitely make a difference! This video has actually moved me and I'm excited for my adventure!
As a videographer and editor, I'm almost just as impressed that you put all of this footage in a timeline and actually went through with editing it all lmao. I have a three month trip in France that I have been working on for over a year very very slowly
Amazing video! Just saw the whole video in one setting. Thank you so much. You are such an inspiration to all of us.
Oh thank you for making this. Such a treasure of good information. I plan to start my NOBO thru hike on April first. I love challenges. It's definitely going to be a memorable experience.
I’m not sure how I missed this when it was first released but it came up in my suggested videos this morning. Even though I followed along as you hiked in 2021, this was wonderful to watch. I hope this finds you well. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you. God Bless.
I’m really enjoying your video journey vicariously. When I graduated from high school in 1974 my goal in the yearbook was to hike the AT, but I never have more than just segments. The longest was from Caledonia State Park, PA to Harper’s Ferry, WV. In fact I was on the AT when President Nixon resigned.
It’s amazing the infrastructure that has developed to support the AT through hikers since then and how you can stay connected with phones, etc. to family and the outside world…
Wish I could watch live but I will be working as it’ll be 10 AM Thursday when it launches. Can’t wait to watch after work tomorrow. I watched every single one of your daily vlogs last year when you hiked over my morning coffee.
So inspiring! This was the best AT Doc I’ve watched and you really captured the trail and what to expect. Thank you for making this 💪👏
Thank you. You are an amazing person, with a wonderful spirit. Stay safe and prosper in all you do.
I just found your video of hiking the AT in 120 days. I really enjoyed it. I hiked the AT in 2005. I had a 4 month interval in which I had to complete my hike. I was 62 a marathon runner with no previous hiking experience. I ended up in the hospital 4 different times with poison ivy, cellulitis, MRSA and anemia. I actually got admitted to the hospital with cellulitis. Family issues have eliminated the possibility of any hiking after the AT. I am now 80 and have returned to running. I have thoroughly enjoyed all of your videos.
How much does it cost to hike hole trail
That was an awesome compilation! I have been watching several 2022 vloggers, this was special journey, thanks!
Your trip was very enjoyable to watch! You look amazing even while hiking (natural beauty). I can tell this is your passion, and you seem so happy! I wish I could do something like that.
looking forward to watching your documentary on your journey on the Appalachian trail.
Wow.... Your videos are perfect! Thank you for taking us along!
app-u-latch-un!!!! I live like 4 miles from the station at 19E. great video. it's so cool to watch people do it especially as I'm not physically able!!! thank you from the bottom of my heart
Wow it was great going through your hike again. I really want to hike the Whites one day. It was incredible watching this and it really stoked my urge to get out more this year. Thanks for having me along!
This was so inspirational! thank you for sharing your journey💕
Such a great video, Taylor. Look forward to your future adventures on video!
44 miles in a day... You are an alien! Wow! Congratulations for that, your thru-hike and the information.
This was amazing!! You kept such high spirits and didn’t let Covid keep you away from your goal for long but still stayed safe 💚
I suspect that Covid was the least of it
NH girl here! Much appreciate the video! I’m very excited to one day complete the AT. I would love to leave tomorrow but, life and all. Until then I’ll continue living through you. Much love girl.
What a beautiful beautiful trip you had some very hard times but you excelled and are one very strong and determined lady congratulations
Awesome to see this summary - followed both years of your AT hikes, so good to see you and Cody again. Congrats!!! Can't wait for your next adventure.
Thank you!!
Enjoyed your video. I started the trail several weeks behind you on March 15th - summited Katahdin mid-August. Great times!
One of the best hiking videos I've seen. Thank you
I watched you all of last year but just had to watch you again. Great job on this!
Congratulations again! It was fun to see your accomplishment all over again.
Watched every daily episode last year. Really enjoyed the documentary! Was cool to see sections I’ve hiked.
This was amazing---loved being able to watch your experience!!! 🥰🥰
You had the perfect attitude to hike your own hike. I'm so glad that you and Cody both completed the AT. All the best💚
Kinda weird it was you and cody spendin all that time not you and chet.. just sayin.
@@Mwellmac people cant make friends?
So upbeat and encouraging! Great job!
Dude I’m so envious. You are very lucky to have a family that supports you like that, and a fiancé as well. Good job. It’s on my bucket list. 🎉
My wife and really enjoyed watching your video. Thank you. Glad you were able to accomplish the Trail. We have walked parts of it, mainly in Maine, New HamSTER, and Pennsylvania.
Great journey! Best video footage of the AT that I have seen. Congratulations on your achievement!
WHAT A GREAT EDIT AND PERSONALITY!! Thank you so much for this!!
I haven’t finished yet but this story is so inspirational already. Thank you for sharing your journey 👏🏾
❤❤❤ truely loved watching your thru hike. Great video and compilation
I’ve been waiting for this!🙂🙏 Thanks 😊
Wow awesome achievement, thanks for sharing all the trials, tribulations, tears and smiles!!
Wow!! What an adventure. Great job capturing it all for an hour and a half of all of us being able to follow along. I was supposed to do my thru hike in 2004 but couldn’t do hopefully some day I’ll get to make the journey.
I enjoyed that immensely. What a stunning achievement. The whole experience was fabulous to watch. I’m in England and we have trails but not as long as the AT. Unless you walk around the whole of the UK coastline.
Well done and you have a new subscriber. 👍🏴🇺🇸
A great documentary. I watched you all last year but it was nice to see a summary. Dianne
Great Documentary, In 82 at age 24 I did the first 300 miles over the summer, Hiking on weekends, totally unprepared for the AT even though I had hiked 1000 miles of Wisconsin and Michigan the year prior. The AT will make a hiker out of you or it will break you, I still hike when I can I now live 20 miles from the Maryland section and have thought about the 4 state hike as a saturday adventure.
Really enjoyed watching your trek, what an incredible accomplishment!! Especially enjoyed your commentary and info on places to stop and explaining the hiking lingo. Thank you for sharing your journey!
Didn't watch the entire video BUT watched most of it. It was AWESOME .... congrats AGAIN !!!!
This is so well done! I LOVED watching your thru hike in 2021. You inspired me to hike it so thank you Taylor
Thank you!! Wow, that's awesome! I hope you have an amazing time out there. I hope I can run into you on the trail
I so enjoyed watching your trail hike video and very glad you shared it. You were a shear joy to observe. I now have greater confidence in my daughter's plan to hike The Camino de Santiago in Spain. Mostly as it's a shorter hike. Glad you made it.
I followed your whole hike, so great to get to revisit again. Great to see Cody again
And best wishes on your upcoming wedding. 👰♀️🤵♂️
Thank you for sharing this beautiful video. I appreciate the minimal speaking, giving the viewer the opportunity to reflect. Yellowstone is one of the special wonders of the world, It touches your soul. Blessings
So inspiring, I absolutely loved watching your endeavor. And at times felt like I was there.
look forward to seeing more videos in the future.
You 🤘
