ER is back!! Beautifully filmed segment. When I did the Foothills Trail I met a woman from upstate New York, and we sat at camp talking about your videos, and she said she read your book Pushing North and loved it. Just know there are lots of people out there you don't know who appreciate what you do.
I'm starting the Colorado Trail as my first thru hike in less than two weeks and the excitement is overwhelming. It just feels so surreal that after watching thru hiking videos for years I will finally be heading out to do it myself. I appreciate that you share these adventures with us, may it inspire others to do the same.
It was awesome to see you back out again. This video was very meaningful. Purposeful, deliberate, like you are on a mission in search of something. I am always inspired and uplifted by your videos and have found your life very interesting. I have learned alot from you since your first AT hike. Hope you are having a blast and find what you are looking for.
Love your evolution as a vlogger, how you are now content with letting the story & meaning of the journey speak its own message. Enjoy your insights & commentary as well, but this was a new level of ER. Beautiful
As a hiker myself. You know you've worn your pair of comfy socks too long. When you take them off at night, and they crawl off and hide from you :) This is a very beautiful video. I will keep watching. Oh, I live in Wyoming.
So awesome to see you back up on the net and back on the Colorado Trail, brother! I look forward to following your round-two journey! Thanks for taking the time and putting in the work to share with us!
In stillness we find god--however we define that for ourselves. You gave yourself the gift of experiencing this trail a second time with a new perspective. Love to see ER in his natural habitat. - from KANSAS.
(eye roll)..... There's only one God. We don't define Him ! Who are we to think that's possible ! You can say His name....who cares if people are offended..... let them be offended. Say it with me....... JESUS CHRIST ❤..... yeah ! JESUS ❤.... Let His precious name offend people. Those same ones will spend eternity wishing they could have one more chance. AND IT WILL NEVER COME !!! Wait until Judgment Day. They'll weep and gnash their teeth. The agony and regret knowing they chose to deny His Holy name !!! Tomorrow isn't promised to anybody. And don't think you'll just ask for forgiveness right before you die. God will not be mocked. For whatsoever a man soweth that will he reap. ..... God is forcing people to choose right now. No more being on the fence. That's why the line between good and evil is so obvious now. It's so apparent. Even unbelievers see it. I don't even like using that word....UNBELIEVERS. We all know God is real. Even Satan knows God is exactly who He says He is.... THE MEASURING LINE is being laid. You can read about that in Zechariah Chapter 2 New King James Version.
Wow. This is amazing stuff - all of it, the camera work, the views, the ease in which you present a message even without dialog. There are so many things I want to pick your brain about. Obviously hiking being a priority at the moment because I promise you, my hiking doesn’t look like that 😂. I genuinely look forward to watching more of your content whenever I complete this trek. I appreciate your support and hope to chat sometime. Thank you. This is amazing stuff.
Thanks, bro. This is an example of how far I've evolved in my mind from those first videos hiking the AT. My mind is so much quieter now. There's no desire for me to hit record and ramble on about "busy things" even though all those who have followed me since the AT still want the busy-mind me in the videos (look at the comments 😁). It has taken many trails and many hours of meditation and reflection to reduce the primacy of my giant-ass ego. That's where I think your gift lies. You are at a peaceful place mentally and can now let that place come out in verbal communication. That's powerful! That's a gift only a few have. It's a superpower. I tried to express aesthetically in my video because it doesn't flow naturally for me in verbal form. Thanks for the comment. Stay the course out there. There are many more people and places that are patiently awaiting your arrival, they just don't know it yet. 🤘🕑
us watching last year's hike: "ER whipped that trail in almost no time at all." ... ER: "That trail whipped me last year," - appreciate you & your perspective to keep pushing what's possible
I will continue to watch. Been watch watching since the AT. And yes the scenery is beautiful not your thoughts about what you’re doing are the most importantl.
Wow! You made my heart yearn for being back on trail. The music, cinematography and content is incredible. I have tears in my eyes watching this. So happy you’re back on trail and I’m in awe, simply amazing. You are a warrior.
Man have I missed alot. I have been gone for far to long. You've changed up your video style and I really enjoy it. I do miss your morning action reports though. I hope everything has been well with you. I have a lot of catching up to do on previous videos. Going to have to get some Flair going on... Woooooo!
woke up late this morning feeling out of sorts, and up popped your feed, and I thought ER was back those 13 minutes of filming and peace have levelled out the start of my day
So glad to see you here again. Honestly, I have been concerned (I know I don”t know. You). Hike on and take good care of your Self. You are a light. Thank you.😊
ER that was truly amazing!! You have hit another gear on the editing!! I’m stoked to follow you on this trek across Colorado!! God’s blessings and safe travels!👊🏻
Colorado Girl here, this was such a peaceful video. I often feel my first effort at a physical endeavor is just a recon trip, learning what and how I can do it better for the second round. I say, Bravo! for your return trip! I see you have the new Zpacks tent. I hope you do a review. I am looking forward to your next video. Thank you for sharing. Colorado Girl
Thanks ER. HOPE you get good weather during your hike. I know when your out there a million things go through your mind. I have driven through CO. Done a little hiking in Montana. It's different from the AT and my area in Western North Carolina. Take care of yourself and thanks for all the time you put into your videos. PS looks like the ga dogs are doing good.
Great scenery, but I sure miss hearing your dialogue. Your opinions about the Matrix and life, even about the food you eat are always entertaining. Good luck on the rest of your hike.
Beautiful! Thank you for taking us along again--I saw on Insta that you were back out there, but this is really a treat. You look like a kid out there.
Hey ER! Ran into you the first couple days and was trying to find at Kenosha campground. I had to get off trail because of a tic bite I got in Vermont the week before started to show bruising… Anyways really learned a lot from you and will continue next year!
Great to hear from you. I always wondered what happened to you that day. I camped right behind the campground after grabbing water from the pump. Hope your time on the CT next year is awesome. 🤘🕓
What!?!? Can't believe we were hiking the same state! Wish we had run into each other, but based on the colors of the foliage, I'm guessing you were a little earlier than me. Excellent video and some really extraordinary shots -- much better than what I got in CO. Love watching your evolution as a videographer and editor -- as others have said, I think this was your best one cinematically yet! I just got home two days ago after finishing the CDT, and am wrecked. Like you said in the video, Colorado was rough, but beautiful. Looking forward to the next video! BTW: How do you like the new Hyperlite pack?
I tried to reach you on your channel to find out where you were. I knew we were probably within a few hundred miles at most. CONGRATS on your Triple Crown, bro! Unbelievable grit and drive to keep going. I hope you recover quickly and the achievement feels as good as it should.🕓
Thanks for the video brother, tried the ct last year. Dropped out about 1/2 way. Old military fillings gave out. Been following you since you started on the AT. Find any wonderful trail magic this time around ?
I can feel your struggle Trey. What are you running for ? What are you scared of? You don't think God can forgive? If you only knew how good He really is lol. You're missing out Trey ! Do this for yourself. And your family. And everyone else in your realm. Get a New King James Version Bible. And not because my Grandpappy's bruncles cousins neighbor's mailman said to use it. (I've done the research. Just get that one.) I don't feel like explaining why. It's the Word of God. Just trust me. And if some crazy Baptist tells you only the King James Bible is good.... don't argue with them. Tell them that was written in 1611 and there's no once saved always saved lol. Ok.... where were we.... Get a NKJV BIBLE. Get alone with God. Humbly ask God to show Himself to you. Pray. Step out in faith. Open that Bible and wherever your eyes first land....READ IT !!!! Just talk to Him. Read that Bible. Tell Him you're sorry for doing bad stuff. He is so good Trey. It's not just you. You've gotta help save your family too Trey. Don't be that guy on Judgment Day that watches his family thrown into Hell. Knowing you could have and should have helped. Quit being selfish. It's not just about you..... All those warriors you help train and lead too. You know they're going into combat. You're missing chances to save souls. You need to get alone with God Trey. It's not just me He has sent to warn you. If you'd listen He will help you. ON HIS TERMS !!! not ours... He keeps showing me tears..... and crying. What's that mean to you? I hope you're ok Trey. ❤..... if you need to message me buddy. Trey..... get that Bible. Read it. Pray. There's no time left brother. God is going to save you Trey. 🙏 ❤.... God bless you in Jesus precious name ❤️ 🙏....

Crazy to hear things like this. Thanks for sharing this story. 🕓
I am in tears. The artistry of this film is stunning. The quietness. The beauty. I wish you well, ER.
Thanks be to God for the beautuful landscape and to you Trey who shared it wuth us. God bless you. Aunt Linda
Yay for you being back out there and giving it another go. ER - I have to say - your videos are KILLER! Just beautiful!! Thank you. -- Chica
Thanks Chica!

Good luck. That trail is amazing! It's also wicked hard so don't underestimate it. Just enjoy each day because it's over before you know it. 🤘🕓

Still my favorite AT Thru hiker vlog.
Love your evolution as a vlogger, how you are now content with letting the story & meaning of the journey speak its own message. Enjoy your insights & commentary as well, but this was a new level of ER. Beautiful
Spectacular scenery, wonderful cinematic style. I hope this trail brought you peace and joy this year
You are a gem. Beautiful video. Glad you're back. Continue to inspire us.
Yeah baby
Can’t wait to watch this..
Glad to see your back!

Thanks bro. Stillness is the key to many of life's doors!!
(eye roll).....
There's only one God. We don't define Him ! Who are we to think that's possible !
You can say His name....who cares if people are offended..... let them be offended.
Say it with me....... JESUS CHRIST ❤.....
yeah ! JESUS ❤....
Let His precious name offend people. Those same ones will spend eternity wishing they could have one more chance. AND IT WILL NEVER COME !!!
Wait until Judgment Day. They'll weep and gnash their teeth. The agony and regret knowing they chose to deny His Holy name !!!
Tomorrow isn't promised to anybody. And don't think you'll just ask for forgiveness right before you die. God will not be mocked.
For whatsoever a man soweth that will he reap.

The only hiker videos I will watch
us watching last year's hike: "ER whipped that trail in almost no time at all." ... ER: "That trail whipped me last year," - appreciate you & your perspective to keep pushing what's possible
😂
I will continue to watch. Been watch watching since the AT. And yes the scenery is beautiful not your thoughts about what you’re doing are the most importantl.
The best video you have ever produced brother! God Bless America and all that keep her free! Much love and respect from Alabama
Great to see you back on the trail! Hope all is well, miss your podcast.
Glad to see you’re going to be uploading videos of your recent hike! Great video and can’t wait for the rest!
Thanks Evan!
Evan, I watched both you and ER hike the A T. Watching Masochist the last couple years and he ran into ER a couple weeks ago on the trail!
Top notch
Wow! You made my heart yearn for being back on trail. The music, cinematography and content is incredible. I have tears in my eyes watching this.
So happy you’re back on trail and I’m in awe, simply amazing. You are a warrior.
Absolutely great work awesome vid.
Watched last years trek and now this year! 🧡💯

You're back!
Very nice. Calming video!
Very nice thanks

It's so good to see you again, ER! Can't wait to see the rest of the hike!
Glad to see your are back out. Great shots. Get a grayl man. The time saved filtering make it worth the weight.
It’s good to see you back out there. I’ll be attempting the CT in July 2024.🙌
It's an awesome trail . . . except for the rocks . . . I'm over the rocks 🤣
@@EarlyRiser71 😄
Loved the video. Glad to see ya again.
Inspiring!
Serenely beautiful. Thank you.
Also, so you are on the CT! Masochist mentioned meeting an Early Riser in one of his videos.
Yeah, I ran into Matt the day we were going into Lake CIty. I watch his videos so it was cool to spend some time with him.
Hey ER hope your doing well. Beautiful video. Will be interesting to see at the end how this experience was different.
Great scenery, but I sure miss hearing your dialogue. Your opinions about the Matrix and life, even about the food you eat are always entertaining. Good luck on the rest of your hike.
Wow you are back
Beautiful!
Wow! This is a great surprise. Just starting to watch. So looking forward to the entire hike. Way to go!
Good stuff ER
Thanks for sharing your adventure. Here's to many, happy trails ahead.
Beautiful! Thank you for taking us along again--I saw on Insta that you were back out there, but this is really a treat. You look like a kid out there.
Hey ER! Ran into you the first couple days and was trying to find at Kenosha campground. I had to get off trail because of a tic bite I got in Vermont the week before started to show bruising… Anyways really learned a lot from you and will continue next year!
Great to hear from you. I always wondered what happened to you that day. I camped right behind the campground after grabbing water from the pump. Hope your time on the CT next year is awesome. 🤘🕓
The flag means everything peace and freedom. Thank you.

glad to see you on the trail again. Have a great hike and be safe. BTW new pack?
These few days looked picture perfect. I hope your internal mood at the time matched this video.
This hike was very peaceful and cathartic. Knowing the secret to the logistics allows that stress to be turned down to almost zero.
Thanks for the video brother, tried the ct last year. Dropped out about 1/2 way. Old military fillings gave out. Been following you since you started on the AT. Find any wonderful trail magic this time around ?
Wanted to do the Colorado trail and the pandemic came, I will hike it in the future.
Well, certainly a different style of video from ER.
see you out there next year?
Moving to a new trail next year . . . maybe... 😉
Damn
Great footage, what did you use to shoot with?
I had a mirrorless camera and a GoPro 11. Switched depending on the shot. Always a.GoPro when holding while walking.
I can feel your struggle Trey. What are you running for ?
What are you scared of? You don't think God can forgive?
If you only knew how good He really is lol. You're missing out Trey !
Do this for yourself. And your family. And everyone else in your realm.
Get a New King James Version Bible. And not because my Grandpappy's bruncles cousins neighbor's mailman said to use it.
(I've done the research. Just get that one.) I don't feel like explaining why. It's the Word of God. Just trust me. And if some crazy Baptist tells you only the King James Bible is good.... don't argue with them. Tell them that was written in 1611 and there's no once saved always saved lol.
Ok.... where were we....
Get a NKJV BIBLE.
Get alone with God. Humbly ask God to show Himself to you. Pray. Step out in faith.
Open that Bible and wherever your eyes first land....READ IT !!!! Just talk to Him. Read that Bible. Tell Him you're sorry for doing bad stuff. He is so good Trey.
It's not just you. You've gotta help save your family too Trey.
Don't be that guy on Judgment Day that watches his family thrown into Hell. Knowing you could have and should have helped.
Quit being selfish. It's not just about you.....
All those warriors you help train and lead too. You know they're going into combat. You're missing chances to save souls.
You need to get alone with God Trey. It's not just me He has sent to warn you. If you'd listen He will help you.
ON HIS TERMS !!! not ours...
He keeps showing me tears..... and crying. What's that mean to you?
I hope you're ok Trey. ❤..... if you need to message me buddy.
Trey..... get that Bible. Read it. Pray. There's no time left brother. God is going to save you Trey. 🙏 ❤....
God bless you in Jesus precious name ❤️ 🙏....
