    My wife Kristi and I have big things in store. But we're not sure if we're ready for what's coming. We'll be trekking two big trails in Peru, which will be major accomplishments. But something went wrong and we're not sure how it's going to go.

    Love you guys! I do want to say you should have your dog on a leash during the videos. It is a forest service rule, and while your pup is super chill, some folks are afraid of dogs on the trail. You are a public figure, and I know you want folks to do the right thing in the wilderness .
    Wishing you a great trip in Peru !

    I have a similar injury and I can’t imagine a multi day hike right now. How do you avoid flexion while camping? Walking (for me) is good, but sitting and bending forward is awful. Maybe you heal faster than me! Best of luck in Peru!

    • @5ervalkat192

    As someone who deals with significant pain daily, I'm interested in coping methods she uses during this length of trail in Peru. I'm thinking of hiking a 67-mile trail over the coast range in Oregon, but the pain/distance is daunting...

    Hi Eric, are you using the Mystery Ranch Radix 57 in this video? I noticed you have shoulder straps that are more akin to running vests with water bottle storage up top, but unsure if that's from the mystery ranch radix 57 linked in the description. I'm on the hunt for a new backpack for summer adventures!

    I do pt because I also have back issues and nerve pain! It's always nice to see others with the same struggles out there and thriving (not nice that she was hurt and has to deal with this obviously, just nice that she's been able to make it back out there).

    I spent a month in Peru in 1989 and hiked a few days on the Inca Trail starting at Machu Pichu. It was gorgeous. I can't wait to see your journey. I've had four herniated disks to contend with in the last 20 years, and I use back braces now that I'm in my 60s. You probably don't need them given your young age. I find they are a big help to lengthen the time between pain flare-ups when I'm on my feet for extended periods. All my best.

  • @j.stephens257

    Kristi, nerve block injections helped me stay relatively pain-free for nearly 15 years. I finally submitted to spine surgery last year, and I'm bouncing back quite well. Hoping you're conquering the pain and enjoying the trip!

The BLM have cut a road from Spencer Flats that gets you closer to the Cosmic Ashtray. We hiked Horse Canyon and Little Death Hollow. When the snow clears we’ll go over to Ophir and look for your phone. Safe travels to you two!😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍👍👍

    What wonderful family you have, Eric. I suffer from several herniations. For the lower back or SI, I do the 'backstroke swimmer starting position' stretch. I use the kitchen sink to grab on to. I also do the 'armadillo defense' pose. DO NOT go to a Chiro. Laparoscopic surgery is the fix but you need to find the right people to help you. Anyway, I am not a medical person. Hope your wife finds relief. Wishing you success in Peru.

    Shocked to see the roasted guinea pig, which is an image I can't unsee. My pet guinea pig passed away in 2021. He was intelligent, affectionate, trusting & curious. He would run to us when we got home & purr when he got his favourite fruits. Hope you'd be more thoughtful towards animal lovers in future videos.
