    I recommend making a single longer film that could become the gold standard for the TA Trail. What you did on the PCT was magnificent, but creators are often their best when they are telling stories rooted in their native geography. So many of the great works of literature are set in the nurturing environment of the author's youth. Who knows maybe you could then do a film festival gig or sell the film online like Darwin did for the Arizona Trail. Best regards young lady...you have the soul of a poet and the heart of a lion.

    I notice you have learned some new photography stuff in your short edits in this video, compared to your PCT edit. I noticed that due to me also starting to learn to capture my hikes and my experienced since your last video. You are one of my inspirations for making my own videos. Mostly just short ones for now (on a different account, norway hikes), but I might do longer ones's as I learn and get better at it.
    Best of luck with your videos and future endeavours.

I liked how each of your PCT episodes felt like their own vignettes contributing to a full journey.) Do what you feel most inspired to do though, move at your own pace on this.
