View Full Version : Where's Wildcowboy?

I've been out of the loop (offline) lately and will be back on the trail again in a few days. Hope this question isn't taboo, but I was wondering if anyone has heard from Wildcowboy. If memory serves..., he should be starting his record-breaking thru-hike on the 1st of May.
Any updates?

Rumor has it he has abandoned the thru-hike (simply too easy) and will instead attempt to travel around the world in 80 days(catchy title) - unsupported, of course. 311 miles per day would mean he would have to average 19.5 mph - certainly doable as humans have been clocked at up to 27 mph. :rolleyes:
Besides: It's his dream. He should go for it. Just do it.
Seriously, my understanding is that he's dropped the idea and there has been no news.

Over the last few years, I've noticed the BS threads often get the most activity. :D
People love to be BS'ed..........

There are a lot of unrealistic dreamers (and egotists) out there. My new boss (all of thirty something years), who is (according to him) a world class downhill skier (why hadn't I heard of him before?????) says he's considering running RI's North-South trail (78 miles) in a day. Could it be done? Probably. By him? Not likely. He's about 6' tall and weighs around 190 and has short legs and a small pot belly.
Boasters fall hard (if they ever even try).
Logic (and cold, hard facts) have a way of short-circuiting the ego.

I'm worried about him!!
Actually, I did it with a friend two weekends ago in four days and a few hours. A couple of days under 20 miles, a couple of days slightly over. Boredom was the biggest problem.
Totally doable? For a real runner, no problem.
I would have died half way into it if I tried to run it. I enjoyed the wooded parts, though.

Most "trail runs" are actually a mixture of power hiking and running over distances that long(except for the elite few).
Having done a good chunk of the NST, I have to say it does not hold any special allure for me. The wooded parts are nice and would be killer in mid-late October. The rest is too much road (Rhode? :D) walking. Even the "rural" parts of Rhody are very built up now.
Maybe if I found myself in RI again for an extended time
,I would thru-hike this trail. Can't see me visiting RI and backpacking though. :)

Wildcowboy couldn't do one 74 mile day. By the way, what is the longest milage day you have ever seen that was part of an unsupported, with pack, thru hike?

I seen a guy that did a 41 in the Smokies. He was a southbounder that looked in pretty dang good shape. Of course I didn't see him walk it, just taked to him in the shelter. Based on the way he said it I had no reason to doubt him. We were stopped late at Double springs when he came rolling in. He just said matter-of-factly that he had started at Davenport Gap Shelter that morning.

That's my point. 41 miles in the smokies is great, but has anyone even done one 74 mile day on a regular thru hike? And I'm not talking about a slack pack. I once saw a Ultra light Thru do a 47 mile day. That just goers to show how full of it WC was.

I have done the "Damascus by Dawn!" 64-mile hike from the north (Rt. 16 - Mt Rogers HQ) four times - once with a full pack and three times without support.
I have done the "Damascus by Dawn!" 64-mile hike from the south (starting just south of Walnut Mt. Rd.) three times - one without support and two with support.
My son, Forest, did the "'Damascus by Dawn!" 64-mile hike from the north when he was 15 y.o. He had support from his Dad, Grampy and his sister Heather.
The "Damascus by Dawn!" hike were the southern versions of the Coonecticut Superhikes (56 miles in 24 hours) and The Spring Stroll (150 miles in three days - CT/MA and a little of VT).
These northern 24-hour endurance hikes took place from 1974 into the early 80's.
The southern 24-hour endurance hikes took place from the early 80's until 2002.
My longest day of hiking (with support) was 71 miles north into Pearisburg in 23 hours and 45 minutes as a fund-raiser for the Nuclear Freeze Movement (Legs against Arms) in 1984.

I sort of cheated. It WAS microbrew..but was in cans. (http://www.oskarblues.com/news/detail.php?ID=2816) So I went luxurious and light.[1]
My other greatest hiking endeavor was the time I did the equally arduous beach chair-to-cabana-and back quad. It involved sun tan lotion, some mixed drinks and a blonde Swede named Ursula....
Then I woke up. We all have to dream of future endeavors, though.
[1] Good beer in cans. It does exist..and Oskar Blues itsself is a favorite post-hike stop for me. Be it couch to fridge, or in Rocky Mtn NP. Heck, they had a Merle Haggard Birthday Bash recently w/ an all you can eat BBQ for $10! And their canned beer is delicious. What's not to like ???!!?!?)
All this record talk is motivating me to set my own personal record... how many seconds will it take me to fetch a beverage.

Actually, it was credulous that was removed in the dictionary back in 1994.

Now I know you are making it up. I checked her site until they took it down last month.
Wildcowboy has duped us into believing that at least he was going to try....What a shame........
Watch him get on here and say he has completed the trail on June 1.

I have written an email to the reporter at KVOA that did the original story back in January. I asked him if he could do a follow up story on WC... At least then we will know if he is still at the same residence and has not started it yet.....

IMO he's not worth the effort to track down.

My concern is that something is going on in this man's life that we don't know about, and he was looking for an escape route by hiking the trail in honor of his mother.
I truly hope that he is doing fine, and even if he doesn't break the record, or starts later this month, but I hope and pray that he is OK.

The original video from the story is gone. I imagine it was just to empty up server space - but the original article is still up.
