- In 2019, I hiked 2,192 miles from Georgia to Maine on the Appalachian Trail. This is part 1/3 of the full length documentary of my thru hike.
Background: My name is Emory Sharplin, also known as "Ten More" on the Appalachian Trail. I started in Georgia on February 28th and finished in Maine on September 19th. The trail required 471,712.6 feet (143,778 meters) of elevation gain, more than five million steps, and spanned 2,192 miles (3,527.7 km).
Godspeed to the class of 2020, and happy hiking to all!

Sandi and I met Emory this past September 2023 in Golden, Colorado. As a six continent world bicycle traveler, I have never met such an extraordinary, enthusiastic, astounding and dynamic lady as Emory. She exudes energy, humanity, intellect and adventure on a level that inspires all the rest of us mere mortals. Her other love of sky diving, base jumping, and other spirited sports...delights all of us to be our highest and best. We wish her abundant health, energy, friends, laughter, love and joy on her life journey. May the Great Spirit be with her on her amazing trek through life. Much love and joy to her, Sandi and Frosty Wooldridge
The second I heard, "I told you, Billy Joe, and Lonnie that..." I knew the story would end with a bang.
All stories with a Billy Joe must end with a bang in rural locales.
so cool seeing all the footage
It was so hard to decide what to include, glad you enjoyed it!
This is like the third time I watched your vid. Hits all the highlites. Good stuff. U guys had a blast
Thank you! The trail ruined my life for the better :)
Thanks for the memories! I made it as far as Greyson before bailing in '17. Starting a flip-flop from McAfee knob just after Trail Days in Damascus this year.
You're a badass for making it to Grayson and an even bigger badass for going back a second time. Best of luck on your flip-flop Papa Dude!
The ending of Part 1 is a classic!
Great video and excellent sleeping bag/quilt choice! 👌
Thank you! My feathered friends bag is for sure one of my favorite pieces of gear
I was about a month behind you and it's interesting to see how different the weather was. Thanks for allowing me to relive some awesome memories through your video. Looking forward to watching part 2! Storm Chaser 4/3/2019-10/11/2019
Howdy Storm Chaser! How was your weather? I'm guessing you had a pretty cold summit day on Katahdin, but warmer weather down south (and in the smokies especially)....
@@hikertrashproductions6078 It was still cold in Georgia in April. Had to wait out some heavy rain and snow in Franklin on Easter. Southern Virginia brought 8 days of heavy rain also. But then I got the heat wave right in the dry part of Pennsylvania. Oof. With heat indices up near 108 degrees I was night hiking, sleeping a few, getting up early, and then napping midday. There were a few really cold nights (low 30s and windy) just before Monson but then it warmed up to nice hiking weather. Even Katahdin wasn't too bad.
I watched your other videos and really enjoyed experiencing your hike. I'm glad you had some of the not-so-good days too as that's real. Looks like you might have missed the peak of the incredible fall colors though. The view from Abol Bridge with the trees changing was jaw dropping.
Go ten more!! I still remember meeting you at the standing Indian shelter on a cold rainy evening in March. So happy for you and what you’re doing on RUclips!
Iain Jones thank you!! Hope the rest of your hike went well!
That piano sound at 12:23 superb!!
Thanks for sharing.
You're very welcome! And that old/slightly out of tune piano sounds is one of my favorites
Watching this vidios of hikeing the at makes you want to hike these trails in my area
Go for it!!
Incredible, so nostalgic seeing all these places again. Strong work Ten More. -Timber, Thru Hiker Class of 2017
Thank you very much Timber! And congrats on your thru :)
I enjoyed all three parts but where were The Whites, Mt. Washington, the Huts, Blue Ridge Parkway and all the cheeseburgers, the thunderstorms, the most important part of hiking, The Food, and your first hiking partner? There was so much missing from the video that are very much part of the trail.
The people were the most important part. I started alone (and wouldn't have it any other way) but the people I met changed my life for the better. People are really good. The trail itself taught me what I was made of. I still look back and think, "Jesus, how did you do it?". Kiwi is back in NZ and doing great, we still keep in touch :)
Lovely vid, what a cliffhanger though xD Excited to watch part 2
Love your video! I step off springer on March 8. Cannot wait for the suck.
Thank you! Embrace the suck, my friend. Godspeed to you 👍🏻🤙🏻
Cant wait to hike the AT all the way through! Nice video
Snooch tv thank you! And best of luck on your thru!
Very good! I enjoyed that.
Part 2 here I come
Thank you! Hope you enjoy part two :)
Love your video and want to get down there and hike that trail some day
Thank you! I hope you get the opportunity to hike it one day :)
I absolutely loved Part 1!! I’ve been section hiking the AT and I’m at mile marker 428. This video brought back so many memories. I can’t wait to hike Virginia and see those ponies, but definitely no bears. Lol. Looks like you’ve been enjoying the AT. Can’t wait to see Part 2.
WTF is up with that ending in Pennsylvania??? Good lord. 😂😂
Thank you very much, and congrats on your progress so far! I hope you'll get better weather in Grayson Highlands than I had. As for that ending in Pennsylvania... I was honestly terrified they'd drive into our tents or something. Hiking the next day was miserable because we were all exhausted, but the story kept on giving for the rest of the trail. I learned the term Pennsyltucky too... so I could call it an educational experience... if I were, you know, really optimistic or a liar.
Part 2 is now up! ruclips.net/video/RmAwGwhc0N8/видео.html
Awesome video 10 More had some fun times with you.
Grizz in the Woods thanks man, so many great memories. We should catch up when I’m on the PCT!
HikerTrashProductions for sure I would happily bring you some trail magic.
You are amazing love your positive energy facing adversity embrace the suck
Miss you
Well done
Great part one! Looking forward to the rest. Was really after that shooting recording, not sure if peeps actually believed me how fucking close we were to it...
-Bullseye ø
Dudeee!! Hey!! The full audio recording is like 25 minutes, and I accidentally left out the iconic "you pussy fucking bitch!" insult, but at least I captured the gunshots and burn out... what an insane night. Good times, glad we didn't get shot or run over.
Great stuff!
Thank you!!
That was the classic welcome to Pennsylvania 😂
I'm sorry you had a bad experience in Gatlinburg. Usually it would be such a lovely time. Our family lives outside of Nashville, Gatlinburg is about 3 and a half hours away. Usually most places in Tennessee would always be so friendly and lovely. Here in the Volunteer State, the people are usually friendly so I'm sorry that wasn't your experience.
Ready for part 2
Levi Cook should be up this Thursday :)
Part 2 is now up! ruclips.net/video/RmAwGwhc0N8/видео.html
Wow part 1 was great, Cute girl hikers are the best.
Why do I get the feeling another cheeky bloke just got his greencard? Cheers mate!
Mate, Kiwi was a specimen.
@@senatormendoza7657Stop embarrassing me, Bullseye. But also yes
Yeah nah yeah cheers guys
@@adamcaldwell1759 bwaha, cheers Kiwi
Sounded like Montana anywhere at 3am.
RIP PONYKEG
Finally, someone actually gets the Gatlinburg is a fully stinking turd of a town and is a blight on both TN and the GSMNP. I would not leave a shit in Gatlinburg, let alone take one there.
Very classy and wonderful video of my favorite place in the world. Thank you for the share. Did you have a chl. during the hike ? If so what was it ?
Thank you very much Terry! The trail will forever have a special place in my heart, and I'm glad you enjoyed the videos. I didn't maintain a channel while I was hiking, but I might on the PCT!
@@hikertrashproductions6078 Emory, when are you doin it? Can't wait! Thanks for the share
@@terrypaschal348 Planning on 2021, unless I get impatience and just go for it this year :)
I'm guessing you started the hike in the winter, maybe January... and you entered Virginia by mid April, so I suppose 4 months is about right.
@2:04 It's not either-or it is Neel Gap and only Neel Gap.
If that’s the hill you wanna die on, go for it. I’ll be down at a cabin in Neels gap
The permits for thru-hiking in Great Smoky Mountain National Park...are they obtained in advance of the thru-hike or at some site adjacent to/on the trail?
Most hikers acquire them in NC at the Nantahala Outdoor Center (the NOC). I think it was $20. Thru hikers get to skip the permit line, so don't even worry about it :)
Righteous
Ayyyyyeeee! Miss you dude, hope you're well
Are you planning to release day to day videos from your hike
I'd love to get around to re-editing the footage into day by day or week by week sections. There's sooo much footage I didn't include in the three part documentary for timing reasons. At the very least I'll try to edit in some dates to the full length version I'm working on. I'll think about doing real time updates on the PCT too!
Adam sounds more Aussie than Kiwi. Except saying "Hi Boi"
Which may have not been received so well in the South??
hahaha he didn't get weird looks for that, but maybe for when he'd say "cracker" (example: "it's a cracker day"). Apparently that means great in aussie/kiwi slang. Also ~the C word~ Americans find so offensive was a common one
Definitely a kiwi ya sausage.
@@adamcaldwell1759 Haha - chur bro yus alright cuz.
Hey what happened to the Kiwi guy ? he magically disappeared with out an explanation lol
He was here on a 6 week visa so he didn't plan on hiking the whole thing. He opened up a rock climbing gym back in New Zealand and is dong great. We still touch base periodically :)
YEET
Far out.
U even showed just enough of the flip. The shit end of the stick so to speak
I'm guessing you make lots of new friends with those eyes.
