Some bitter people here. Smh.. wow. Anything to knock another human being down a peg or two. If you wouldn't say it too the girl, don't say it here.
No posting to youtube is free. You just set up your own "channel" and you can upload anything you want there. It's great for custom content of all kinds.
Will Wood uses an app called youtube capture (I think?) to edit is videos that he posts to youtube as he does the AT.
Yes, I will be documenting my thru hike partially on youtube. I actually intend the youtube vids to be really quick snippets of a daily vlog. I will film these with my phone and upload as I can. As...
Dogwood--For me I used making 1/8th of the bottle and never used them again. It was just a weird phase that lasted only a few weeks. I've heard some yoga or meditation can help slow the brain down...
Try Melatonin.. Its safe, natural hormone. My doc recommended it for some sleep troubles I had. You can find it near the vitamins at your local drug store
Check out Will Wood on youtube. He bought a nice camera and is using it on the trail right now. I saw it mentioned somewhere that the Go Pro has terrible battery life?
Will (or Redbeard), seems to...
I think any sort of adventure has different meaning for every single person that does it. I know that physically this hike will be a massive challenge for me, and I already live in the wilderness...

Hey Farren. Clear your Inbox, it won't let me send you anymore
Sounds good to me Farren! :) That would be very cool.
I am planning on being in town very little. I want to stay as close to the trail as possible. If a hostel is with in walking distance of the trail I will stay there if possible, or split with other...
Actually, the problem sometimes is passing the interview to get the job. The reason I say this is I have worked, I have been on disability too, and proving to someone in a 15 min conversation that...
I hike slow, less than 2MPH so I would imagine I'll be seeing a lot of behinds on my trip! LOL I dont mind hiking solo tho, in the end you always have people at shelters or in passing.
I was going to do trail runners until talking to my doctor today. I am a leg amputee so my left leg/foot does ALL the work really.. and I have trouble with that heal so he suggested I go with at...
Main motivation.. I've never done it before.. 2nd motivation, nobody in my family does stuff that I do! LOL
3rd motivation. The list of amputee thru hikers is short, and I will put my name on that...
Eureka Spitfire here.
I own an Osprey Aether 70 that I bought last year. It's not the lightest but it fits me well and It's already paid for so thats what i will be taking.

I am starting around March 16th.
My trail name from my cross Michigan bicycle trip was CarbonFootPrint due...
