Awesome gear list. I start March 31st. I finished section hiking the AT last year and am going to attempt a thruhike this year to celebrate my upcoming 70th birthday. I have my gear list pretty much dialed in, but I am starting at Amicalola Falls with a very light, highly modified wood stove in addition to my homemade alcohol stove. I'm having trouble deciding whether to start with my backpacking guitar (4 lbs.) or not. I hated carrying it on my longer section hikes, but it has been with me on every hike for 10 years. It gets hung up on rhododendrons and blowdowns. I use a hammock and camo DCF tarp and am starting off with a bear canister because there will be so many people that I will probably have trouble finding a good branch to hang my food bag. My average load out of town has been 32 pounds with the guitar, so I will probably drop the food canister and pick up the guitar at the halfway point, when the herd thins out. I hope to see you on the Trail. "Tinker" from Rho-Dyland, as we say it. 😁👍
I’m so excited to see your upcoming hikes! You really inspired me to get out on the AT a lot more.
Looking forward to your hike!
So excited to watch you thru hike the AT again!
Have a wonderful and safe AT hike!! Great video!
Super excited for ATx2 to get started. Love your content and trail chats.
Good luck on your journey Taylor!
Have a blast Taylor!
Good luck on the hike, I'm looking forward to following along.
I'm excited about your upcoming adventure thru hiking the AT again and look forward to watching your videos documenting your journey.
Really excited to watch your thru hike again. Gear looks awesome. You’re going to slay !!
awesome setup! Good luke this year! We will be watching
Good luck! Safe travels.
I'm so glad you're thruhiking again, and vlogging it again.
Hi Taylor it looks like you have your gear all set. Happy to be following along again on your A.T. adventure. Take care and be safe.
I followed your first thru hike so I’m excited to follow you on this one too. I have same backpack and tent so I can’t wait to see how you like them
THANKS FOR SHARING
Go Taylor, good luck, have another adventure.
I love Taylor’s gear review because she’s always trying new things and giving her unbiased opinions!!!!!!
Glad I got to talk to you at Above The Clouds Hostel a bit. It was nice to meet you. Have a Great Hike! 😊
Have another wonderful adventure.
Can’t wait to follow
Taylor, I own 2 of those MH Summit Grid Hoodies… I cannot express how much I love them in words! They are so warm and cozy, and they also block wind. Definitely a solid purchase. I guarantee you’ll buy a second one.
So excited for your AT hike, loved following you the first time. Hope you don’t try to crush miles too early and look after that knee. Keep an eye out for Nonnie , she started about a month ago, slow and steady…
cannot wait for your updating of AT hikiking
nice color choices! love the purple hoodie!
I literally just finished your video of you thru hiking! And I was like dang I wonder what all gear she took and you made a video!! Thank you! I have a ton of gear but I think majority of my gear is too heavy 😫😂 so it’s just gonna be my go bag. Time to start a hiking bag that’s more light weight
Rock solid setup. I like that you still ziplock stuff within a dry sack. ✌️
SO HELPFUL xo
Love my Nahamsha shirt. I’ve been using those REI rain pants in my Smokies ridgerunning job and so far they’ve been great. Both rain and wind/cold.
Moving, moving, moving, keep them doggie’s movin 🚶love the mountain top hopping, great views for sure. Thought about ya yesterday as I made a trip to Michigan.have a nice evening Hawk👊🏻🇺🇸HST
Thanks for the video! How exciting doing it again. Lately I have been missing the AT and might do it a second time at some point. Nice gear, I think the compression sack is quite the gamble. In my opinion a pack liner isn't optional for the AT...but you can always add one I guess. I just always try to keep my down dry and if there is any ingress, your bag will soak it up over the course of hours. Also don't like the ball it forms, seems unwieldy and space inefficient. But I hope it works for you and it's great that you keep on trying new things!
Not long now brother...... We are so excited for you..... This was a great video
Great gear list, which I'm sure will serve you well. A word of warning on the front pocket of your rain jacket. Those pockets do gather sweat inside when you're working hard, so be careful what you put in them. My phone did that no-charge, water-detected-in-port thing when I last put it in that front pocket. I'd suggest you keep your phone in that dedicated pouch on your pack. Happy trails, and look forward to your vlogs ... 🙂
It will be interesting to see if you change anything out. I watched the video on how you started your small business. Very inspiring and interesting. If anyone hasn't watched it, it is a great story.🌻
I cant wait to hike the Appalachian trail
You share about the support equipment for your luggage very well.
Hoping to see you pass by me! Just got past mile 100! Either way, thanks for sharing your videos. They helped me get better prepared to be out here and enjoy it to the max 🙂
Good luck on your journey!
I have that same Hydrapak bottle and I love it so much! I use it almost every day even when I’m not on trail
re: Hydropack bottle, Does having to squeeze up the water defeat the purpose of (what I originally imagined as) easily lowering your mouth to drink hands-free?
Love the running water bottle idea! I had a straw in a water bottle system I built myself on the PCT and it was amazing for staying hydrated! I was looking for something easier to use and I love this solution!
re: Hydropack bottle, Does having to squeeze up the water defeat the purpose of (what I originally imagined as) easily lowering your mouth to drink hands-free?
@@glendabaghian1145 I bought the bottle and you don’t have to squeeze it to get the water out because it is air tight and the bottle compresses as you drink from it
I love my Mountain Hardware fleece, I have a tunic length one and idk why it doesn't get more attention. Looking forward to following another Nahamsha journey!
Those v-toe socks are awesome for camp flip flops. That would solve a major problem for me. I always wanted to use just the cheap, between-the-toes flip flops, but I like to wear socks. I bought the Xero shoe sandals that are a lot like Teva but more minimalistic. But, they come in at 8 ounces and cost a lot of money. I'm might try these this year with a cheap set of flip flops. You're dialed in kid, good luck this year and happy trails!
I just started following you & I noticed you wear Saucony. I've always liked Salamons for trail running,but I used to wear Saucony for walking/running on the road. So I decided to order the Saucony Peregrine for trail running & hiking. Hope I like them. Thanks
Cool gear
The only thing better than your 2021 AT hike is to see you do it again! Maybe you’ll get a Stretch 2.0 hiking buddy! 😂🤣😂
Hello, noob here. 😂 Thank you for the video. I'm planning on hiking the PCT from the southern terminus to Lytle Creek. So, this is great.
I’m going to wait for your post hike gear update, then I’m going to write your every word down before shopping
Loved your video! I was wondering if you could make a video about how you vlogged/edited/uploaded your videos on trail? I'm a prospective 2024 thruhiker and I'd like to vlog my journey too but have no idea where to start, and your videos were wonderful! Thank you!
Hey someone else using the Peregrine 11's! haha, I have the same color ones for about a year now... used 8's before. I always feel like Saucony is a best kept secret as far as trail runners. I have a friend who got a pair of Altra LP's and went from "I love these" to "I hate these and I'm never wearing them again" after 3 trips. I guess the zero drop / support really was hurting his feet.
Taylor, " Best of luck" with your 2nd *Through hike" of the Appalachian Trail*
My prayers 🙏🙏 are with you for a very successful hike!
What role will your "husband" play on these next 4 to 5 months? Also what type of work does he do?
Besides moral support, I bet you will miss him, that's for sure!
Given the weather, terrian etc., roughly how many miles & hours do hike a day?
I'm now 78 yrs. old and still hike. I've hiked many "sections" of the AT over the years. Mostly here in the North East, Bear Mt., NY (the bridge is lowest elev. on the AT), near were I live. I've also hiked sections in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Vermont and New Hampshire but never got to hike Maine!
I done Mt Washington (at least 10 times) and other mountains in New Hampshire over the years and love it up there, just a long ride to get up there
Have fun and keep your videos coming through out your hike.
I also like a compression bag for my sleeping bag. I could never fit my gear without it. Plus I have that extra sense of security that it will stay dry. I like the sea to summit. It is a dry bag.
Hi Taylor, thank you for the gear list. The link for the shoes shows Saucony Men's Peregrine 11 Trail Running Shoe. They are leather and not water proof. Just wanted to make sure I opened the correct link. Thanks!
This is my favorite part Taylor. So wish I had time to be out there on the trail. Frustrating I have so many responsibilities and they keep taking my weekend's away at work...I'm geared up for a good trip so my focus is getting the time and planning the trip out...Just feel like there is so much I'm missing time is precious to me. Hope your very happy so many stories and so many good people on trail. Sending all the best take care Jim Hope you hike the world! ❤ Would like to know how you find time and how exactly you plan a trip out. Do you use a Garmin in reach to help guide or something else. My first trip didn't get far but learned fast the inability to communicate on my phone. So bought a GPS/satellite device to communicate.
My doctor recommended Saucony sneakers for my plantar fasciitis over 10 years ago. Then I purchased the same type and colors (!) you had on your first thru hike. Wore them for section hikes on AT and everyday walking the dog. I only use darn tough socks and I have never had a blister or foot pain! They may be a little heavier but the tread is outstanding in snow and mud. I just got my third pair for my upcoming section hike of Georgia. Thank you for sharing.
After watching this video and reading your comment, I am considering switching shoes! I am a longtime merrell wearer. My last section, my merrells (speed) killed my feet. I also have plantar fasciitis and a bunion. Peregrine or excursion? Thoughts?
I use the Peregrine 11 for hiking. The only change I have made for my upcoming section hike is to get a half size larger to give me more toe room on downhills. Currently for everyday, I am wearing the Cohesion 13 cause I don’t need the “snow” tread on pavement or around the house. Since I started wearing Saucony I have not had any feet issues or plantar fasciitis and my feet are 66 years young! Happy feet, happy hiker! 😊
@@christinewinters9200 thank you!! I have been struggling since my last section with p.f. I have another section in May and need this to go away. I will order these and try them out while at work! I appreciate the encouragement!! I also like a wide toe box!
Hope they help…if you find the toe box too tight, you can try men’s cause they tend to be roomier. Good luck!
@@christinewinters9200 thank so much!
Really interested to see how that pack performs
Where's the Kula cloth? Did I miss a trowel, TP? What do you do about ticks? Looking forward to your trail videos!
Love your "Survivor" buff! ❤Tried to find it on Amazon couldnt find the one you have..😢
I think it's from the CBS store
Thought of your thru hike today when I hiked the AT to Smarts Mountain fire tower. I saw "Stretch NOBO" and thought it was your stretch but the date said 2020 so it must be a different Stretch.
Hey Taylor 😎 Ken NC ❤️
Taylor, when are you starting your hike? I'll be stepping off headed northbound on April 1st!
Curious to know the weight of all your gear since you showed the weight of your big 4. I'm trying to dial in gear to thru hike the AT in 2024
same here :)
Same
Hi! I’m curious if your cold feet, that you mentioned on your day 7 video, were cold even when using your down booties? 🥶 I’m considering getting down booties and wondered about what ones to get. I’m loving watching your venture!
Please let us know how you like the MH hoodie! I’ve enjoyed their airmesh as a mid layer and always looking for the next option for layering!!!
Curious the size of your purple Mountain Hardware fleece? Women’s sizes and cuts vary so much. I like a loose fit and women’s cut is often too form fitting. Thanks
Excited for you! But you forgot to pack Cody!
Hi Taylor! Can you please explain why you choose to hang a food bag vs using a bear canister? Do there tend to be more lockers/boxes for food bags at shelters, or is hanging the more popular option? I’m struggling to decide which food storage option I should invest in, because hanging a bag is logistically annoying but a canister seems heavy to me. Thanks!
Hi, what size dry sack did you get from Hilltop packs? Small, medium, medium long etc. thanks!
Nice job on the gear list and links to everything. What about your watch? I know you rejected Apple watches, and it looks like you aren't using a Garmin either. Maybe you can talk about how you use the watch during your hike.
Coros apex pro
Hello! I have a couple questions.
1) Why did you choose the single person tent this time, instead of the two person tent?
2) Why are you bringing a thermometer with you?
Hi Emily. Do you have a full and less food/water weight on your pack yet?
Sweet! What's your baseweight?
Do you recommend to keep your clothes and sleeping bag in a dry bag or use pack liner after using the hyperlite? Or is the hyperlite waterproof enough to let them items in the pack as is?
How did it work out?
u know she’s got those pit vipers 🔥🔥
Does your HydraPak Water Bottle leak at the top? I was curious if that is a problem when you take your pack off or lean over to tie your shoes. Your link to the Water Bottle was the 500ML. Did you use the .75L sleeve? Thanks! (I hate using my bladder but I need to be able to drink while moving/not taking my bottle out of it's pocket on my pack.)
Any Chance you will make a lighterpack list?
Hi! Wondering, do you have a lighterpack gear list link?
Taylor- any issue with the fuel canister if flying. Also how do you handle finances- credit cards and cash? TY
Hey Taylor, i´ve got one question: Do you carry any items for self defence with you? OC, taser or a smaller firearm? Greetings, Christian
I suggest carrying Neosporin/Antibiotic ointment/cream and small calamine lotion in first aid kit...
I had a pretty scary experience with a bear the last time I backpacked in the smokies… Do you carry bear spray with you? Or is that something you wait to get until you are in the area?
Hello, I may have missed it, but do you have a link where we can offer financial support throughout your hike like helping with a hotel on a zero day or getting supplies to you or providing trail magic? My husband and I watched your last Appalachian Trail hike and thoroughly enjoyed it and just want to help when we can.
What size "compression sack" did you go with?
Tell us about your watch. I want one just like it !
Are you using a footprint for your tent?
💙
I must have missed it, but do you carry a latrine trowel?
What selfie stick or tripod do you use?
🦋
Are you still traveling with the same cell phone (Note 20 Ultra)? It had a good camera so wondering if you upgraded it.
Yes i have upgraded it, it's the s22 now
I don't have any real hiking experience at all but I so enjoyed following your last thru hike! I can't wait for you to start and I hope you have many wonderful experiences 🌻❤️
I don't know if you're comfortable talking about this, but what about female hygiene on the trail? Whenever I see vlogs by female hikers I'm wondering how they're dealing with this issue, both the "practical" and the emotional stuff.
Some women, if they are young enough, just stop their periods for the trek using birth control pills in a certain way. Talk to your doctor/OB. Some others use menstrual cups or reusable pads that are washable. There are lots of options.
@@mendyviola sure, hormonal contraception is the easiest option, but some might not want to (or can't) use it. I think the cup might be the easiest one after that but still, I can imagine it's not always hygienic or easy to do in the woods. Depends on where on the trail you are I guess and whether there're towns/facilities nearby etc. Pain management might not be easy either.. I don't know, I was just wondering about it while watching Nahamsha's vlogs.
@@majajackson777 I can’t personally use hormonal contraceptives at my age and health history. I personally don’t like the sterility (or not) of cups, so I use the silver infused re-usable pads myself. I use them at home and out camping and on the trail. It adds some bulk and weight to your pack, but for me at least it’s the best option. I haven’t experienced period pain in years, but would presume that having some medications on hand to handle it and scheduling in slow/down/rest days would help.
Are you still bringing a Kula?
Great thanks, this was great! Just get rid of the baby powder, maybe there is a healthier option.
Hold up. Can we talk about the Bluetooth thermometer??? Never knew that was a thing!
Why did you switch away from the enlightened equipment convert?
How do I find your a t vedoes from 2020
I don't think I've seen anything on past videos explaining survivors buff. Were you in the show? What's the story?
She was no but loves the show … thus the buff selection.
Do you prefer not to wear hiking boots for specific reasons? I am just curious. Thanks.
Trail Runners tend to dry quicker when they get wet
anyone know what camera she uses??
Very surprised you dont carry bear spray or a good survival knife.
I've been scrolling through comments looking for a start date. Or are you keeping that secret for privacy and security reasons? If so, I understand completely. Looking forward to following you AGAIN. The girls always vlog better than the guys do. You and Hiking With Braids have the best vlogs out there.
