2024 NOBO I was $7500 into my budget of $10,000 by NJ. Big reason I got off trail. Walking too far (WTF)

How did you wash?

Finally, I have looking for a video of someone giving an idea of what is the cost. My plan is next year and really wanted to get an idea of the cost.

Almost 20$ a day for food....on a trail.....in the wilderness..... Seriously WTF were you eating out there, Lobster tail?

If I have extra space in my canister, like on a simple overnight trip, I use it to carry my sleeping bag with my food. Sure some of the food might rub off onto it like cheese and salami but I figure I can was the bag later😉

You said you re-supplied every 3-4 days- was it that easy to get off the trail to do that? So, you also weren't bringing more than 3-4 days of food at a time?

Anyone else used the disco as a quilt ... Just curious

What is total gear cost?

Can you post the item list somewhere? Of course I don't want or need your credit card statement, just a list of everything you spent money on. Even though it's only been 2 years since you posted this, I am wondering what the price increase would be considering the cost of everything keeps rising so I am guessing it would cost a little more today than it did 2 years ago. I live in Maine. I hope to do the hike someday if I get better. I have been sick for a long time and still have no diagnosis but I keep hope I will get better and be able to do this hike. I think it's awesome you did it! Would you do the hike again if you could? I am new here so if I ask anything you answer in other hideos, I apologize, I plan to thumb through your video catalog after I watch this.

Any bigger person use this ... I'm 52" chest ...just wondered

What was your total weight?

A wool base layer can be wet but still feels warm.

What I never seem to hear anyone mention, That I Carry on any multi-day trip, ( both backpacking & bike-packing) is a Good Multi-Vitamin to help the body cope with the not so great diet on trail❗️A Good Multivitamin doesn’t need to be taken daily but can be taken every other or every 3 days to benefit the pounding and neglectful diet while pursuing the goal of finishing in a decent state.

The Vermont cheddar cheese idahoan mashed potatoes were my go to flavor a tuna or chicken pouch and sleep .but you are right you do get flavor fatigue after a while . I always had the goya sazon packets light and a bunch of flavor .and most important cheap 24 packets for about 4$ i never used the whole packet great video 👍👍

The cold-soak in a Talenti jar idea was first brought to my attention by your docuseries, and thanks to that, I already ate some Lemon Sorbet and the empty jar is in the dishwasher, getting ready to take the trip of a lifetime in a few months. Between now and then, I'll be testing out different recipes so there won't be any last-second guessing game while I'm out there. Thanks, as always, for sharing your experience and your perspective. I won't ever be able to stop thanking you, so just ignore me. 🤣

My favourite was brown dynamite

Awesome video . Thank you . What a story !

I'm sure he paid $100,000 for those teeth, they're so perfect I couldn't stop looking at them.

You lost me at “cold soaking.” Nothing is more comforting than a hot meal on a through hike, NOPE.

When on some section hikes / shake down hikes spin yo much on shuttels last trip so 2025 will plane better and maby thru hike someday

I can only imagine! I eat like crazy after even hiking a handful of miles

i love these..... and being from north of Boston, I love the dude from Quincy....I'm 60 years old and doing the AT this coming year ('25)....

Do you put your first aid kit and other smellables in the bear canister/storage aswell? I've been trained to put all smellables in the bear storage but it seams impractical when using something like a bear canister. What do you do with first aid kits and other items like toiletries?

Excellent video! I love that you included weighted runs and the stairmaster with a ruck since these are always missing from recommendations, but I would recommend people just adopt rucking. Either buy a legit rucking backpack (GoRuck) or load up your preferred pack with 10-20lbs and just walk, just make sure you get some incline instead of just distance. Also, while yes, a treadmill is great, it just doesn't build your body the way Earth does.

I’m 17 and I’d love to go through the trail some day and I was wondering what food you were eating throughout and where would you restock

I am driving out in the later part of August with my dog Maggie and I can’t wait to hit the trail. I will be renting a car to return to Denver. I am a AT, LT , White Mountains hiker and I am looking forward to switch backs and less brutal straight up and down. I am sure it will be a challenge for sure. I am older so it’s UL all the way for me. Thanks for all of your input. How were the mountain bikers to deal with? Take care

It doesn't sound quiet at all!

This is exactly in line with my estimate from watching other thru hikers. Though you did it in 4.5mo and I plan on 6mo, the monthly amounts were on point. Thank you for doing the video.

What’s your email??? Watched all your videos before I did the trail this year. You really inspired me. Just wanted to send you a note.

Thanks. Maverick in Florida

The attitude of gratitude will take you far.

I have the Sawyer Cnoc setup. Works much better. Went from the Atmos AG to an Exos to save some weight. One of my teenage boys took the AG.

Hey just saw vid. I knew of john. I am a TA in Maine usually first help out in Rangeley to the end for some. Im sure you know of several ive helped. Hawk, Stella, Skittles, Kristian, ...... and Tara this year on her FKT attempt. I cannot hike but love helping. Kristian's mother gave me my trail name "No Miles"

Can confirm...Osprey did not improve the hip belt pocket zipper. Still need two hands. Perhaps they should have made it Velcro instead.

Platypus for water... either quick draw which is a squeeze or suck filter (like sawyer) but better filter quality. They also make a gravity system... AMAZING I use a grayl ultra press

That's about what I thought it would cost.

I am going to move from a home to an apartment next spring. That is how the spark of an idea of the NOBO AT was started. I am so glad I am not alone.

Just bought a nemo...can't wait to use it. With Pjs on. 👚🩳🧦 lol. incase i need to jump out for any reason in the middle of the night. Always be prepared. 🙂

Hiker hunger.

Never naked, at least a warm thin base layer designed for the elements. Magic.

hey hollywood, i’ve been obsessed with the song that has featured heavily in this series (second time watching btw great work) is it an original song? do you plan on releasing it anywhere if it is?

When using an ursack, I think it's important to pair it with the scent proof opsack plastic bag. There's endless videos of a bear tearing out the bottom of the ursack after catching the scent of food inside. But if the bear or 'mini bears' can't smell your food, then you're going to have another level of protection by them not checking out your food. The Opsack weighs very little. This has worked well for me on my hikes of the AT, PCT, Long Trail and more.

That introduction was beautiful..You have no clue how much You're helping some of Us for 2025.

4 1/2 months?, you were hauling ass.

So I'm a small scale vegetable farmer and the seasons can be tough on me, can make me doubt what I am doing and why I am doing it. I have listened to this most days on my farm and it serves to remind me how lucky I am to do what I do. Wanted to say thanks.

Wow very inspiring…. Thankyou 🙏

Awesome x 10000! So beautiful

100 yards away?? First im afraid of not finding it, second im not sure why im afraid of other hikers stealing food. Does that ever happen on thru hikes??

Maybe you just being honest and everyone does it... Your nickname is Honest LitterBug you should make a video of all the trash and you cleaning it up the entire trail. Pay me to do it.

You should invest in my small business. Where is the refurbish and repair store on or near the trail? Place to rest, reset and shower. Calling the store, Barter Town 😂 Trade what you got for what you wish you could afford.
