Way to go Captain ! Hope you feel better Sunshine , my Mom also has vertigo hope it stays away. I enjoy watching you two hike the trail . Hike your hike .
I am watching both you and Mosey (Rissa Roams) and wondered if you guys would see each other! Sunshine, I hope you feel better. Captain, thanks for taking such good care of your Mom!
Wow! On a day when everything could have gone wrong, you two had some incredibly positive experiences. People truly are amazing, so glad a community pulled for you.
8:22 Captain you are such an amazing son. The love and concern for your momma and carrying both backpacks 🥰 . And WOW what a day of trail magic for you both. So glad the dizziness didn't turn into vertigo but I'm sure that was a scary moment for you both. Also, had to laugh at "You're not even a shuttle driver? We'll who are we with?" 😂 I've seen Matt in another thru-hiker's vlog doing trail magic. So cool!!!!!
Glad you are feeling better! What a nice guy at the end giving you a ride for trail magic! So cool that he met all the hikers & was inspired to do trail magic! I’m sure they all appreciate everything he has done to help them!
My son voluntarily carried my pack once we hit vertical and nothing huge rocks near the table top of Mount Katahdin. I was humbled by his strength and love. But I will never forget him saying… if it wasn’t for you pushing me I would have stopped miles ago as it was treacherous, and I would have never seen the summit! Captain is there for you as a loving son that is quite evident. Trail magic is the bomb!
My son, James, aka Jim, aka Legend, was very happy to meet you. He now has his first vlogs on UA-cam, called SLOTREK. As a beginner, I think they’re really good! Of course I really enjoy your adventures, and have watched them for years.
Glad the vertigo did not manifest. I know that feeling. Question: have you seen many hikers with their dogs? Wondering if thru-hiking with a dog would be impossible. Stay safe and healthy Captain and Sunshine!
I get awful vertigo, I know how you feel. So glad it didn't get worse. You need to try and stay calm. Stress can make it worse. You need to keep some Bonnie/meclizine with you for dizziness/vertigo. Get some rest. Safe travels.
I think you need to start mentally adjusting your expectations for community on the trail. If you're feeling lonely or disconnected in the Shenandoah in the middle of summer there's going to be an order of magnitude fewer people in NH / Maine in the late fall!!
Hiker Hunger reminds me of server Hunger, back with I served at super busy large restaurants. Burned so many calories every day and you wanted to eat everything in sight
I love the channel. I respectfully need to address the berries on trail.... Wild animals forage for their meals, they cannot pack it in from town.... Just saying. I'm an avid hiker from upstate NY, I know it's tempting but leave it wild unless it life sustaining. Only my opinion. Still love the walking and talking vlogs. God bless.😊
Way to go Captain !

Captain MVP for pulling double duty on the packs. Glad you are ok Sunshine.
What a day filled with adversity but then a lot of good things, I'm sure your favorite being will. Love you sunshine, love you captain, Nan

Thank you!
Good info on the Wine Berries...I'll keep a look out for those from now on...
Good job Largo...you adapted, stepped up and handled it.

Go Captain!!
Mossey roams is Ross's channel. It is another one I have been following this year.

Almost a “help, who is this guy posing as a shuttle, “ moment. Luckily he was a delight
Captain, you rock! Two packs for 2 miles! Wow! Feel better, Sunshine! 😊

I talk about this in a future vlog for you

awe, I suffer from vertigo, though for me the Epley Maneuver, while makes me almost sick to the tummy, it's works like magic for me.
It does not work on me, bummer
I’d say “the Camino provides” but it’s not Spain! Definitely something is watching over you! Good job Captain!

Rissa's trail name is Mosey. I call the extended trail community, "Appalachianation".
Love it
Yep, those are probably controlled burns...we are in an area that does that every year....at the NC/SC border.
Don't feel sad about the burn. It's normal, it generates new growth. It's been happening for millions of years. Except when we were covered by ice. 🥶

Ha. I had those days as a server too!
Wine berries look like small raspberries.

Good point. Had not thought of that. I don’t eat probably more than 20 a couple times a week.
Makes you wonder what people do when they are by themselves, and this happens
I know!!! Scary
Credits given where credits are due... In this episode, everyone gets a huge amount of credit from me (?) for the way everything worked out Ttfn
Spoiler…they killed my feet.🥲
Time for a change-up of World Towning's cast of characters for a bit?
Feel better, soon!
Her trail name is Mosey.
