I moved from the city to the mountains! You may have noticed that my most recent videos have all been in the mountains and lakes around Leavenworth, WA - one of America's most gorgeous and unique mountain towns. That's because Leavenworth is my new home! In this video I'll talk about why I moved to this remote mountain town, take you on a classic hike outside Leavenworth, and then just for fun do a polar plunge at one of my favorite alpine lakes, Lake Wenatchee! I'll also talk a little bit about my plans for this channel in 2024! Love y'all!! Thanks for being here! 💚

I moved to Leavenworth too, but mainly for the 35 mustards not to work on the channel with Miranda.
Do you even work on the channel? What's your job?
lol apparently it’s to creep around behind you! I love it!
@@karinarey6488😂😂😂
35 mustards?!
München Haus is one of my absolute faves. I will seriously make the 2+ hour drive from Kenmore just to grab lunch there.
I don’t know why I feel compelled to say this….. somehow I just feel like Miranda needs to hear that she’s doing a great job and she doesn’t have to please anybody, so whatever she is/was searching for…. She deserves it hands down. Keep up the awesome work MGO Team! ❤
This Hallmark movie writes itself. Big city UA-cam celebrity, Miranda moves to a tiny mountain town to further her career, But things don't go as expected when she finds love & realizes that that is what she was really seeking all along. 😄
Amazing comment 😂
Miranda! I’m so happy for you. Rainer’s goofy dance cracked me up! Thank you for lending your voice to UA-cam. The way you share the outdoors and the honest way you share your struggles help me and so many more feel less alone. Keep bringing your authentic self and know you are appreciated. ❤
agreed, I need to practice that dance! lol
My dance style is Bob Fosse interpreted by pool noodles.
"herpaderp derb a derb" is definitely my favorite Springsteen lyric
he's a true poetic genius
That was my favorite part of this video ngl
John Mellencamp sang about small towns bruce springsteen sang about his hometown.
I thought this too. its not Springsteen but that's okay. @@andrewcuthbertson7552
@@MirandaGoesOutside you the one sending the "telegraph me". Messages?
you don't have to put the rewind in there, WE WILL rewind and listen. so endearing.
I love involving the crew. The interactions among your friends is fun especially for traveling and exploring. I think there is also a time for solo video when diving into deep thoughts and experiences
I knew before you even said it "Hey, that's Leavenworth!" As a nearby Wenatchee-ite who spends as much time hiking and camping around Leavenworth as possible, I hope to see you on the trail someday! Happy hiking and welcome to the sunny side of the mountains :)
Miranda, I'm so happy for you! My dad used to live around Lake Chelan, not too far from where you are. He ended up living in Vancouver, worked across the river in Portland, and then moved to the SF Bay Area to be closer to us kids. He lasted three years before he had to move. I quote "you guys live about 10 years an hour faster than I can stand". He ended up meeting his third wife and they moved to Rapid City, SD where they actually lived happily ever after until he died at age 83. I think the slower pace of a small town and the ability to get into the woods whenever you like is going to be great for you. Thanks for introducing us to your new town! Sounds like a place I'd like to visit!
Golly, we love the mountains too!
Living the actual dream!
🥰 I'm truly so lucky
Yay Leavenworth! You gotta get some of that WhistlePunk Icecream 😋
Also, I’d love to see a Miranda does Trail Maintenance video. Maybe partner with WTA and let us know what we can do to help/get involved.
Looking forward to your adventures!
As a native east coaster I saw Leavenworth on my first trip to the PNW back in 2007. I live in Houston now and go backpacking with my college buddies who live up there now every summer. It's a huge spirtual and mental reset for me being in the mountains. You're videos help me get through the non summer months living in flat land Houston. Thank you to you and the team for all that you guys do spreading joy.
As a Texan, I can understand why you would need a little something extra to help you deal with being stuck in Houston.
I’m hiking the PCT this year and will be stopping in Leavenworth for a zero or two because my aunt and uncle live along the icicle river. I love the town! It’s definitely one of my bucket list places to live. Kudos to you! Enjoy!
Oh my gosh!! Congrats on your upcoming hike, and enjoy your zeros in Leavenworth! It's a perfect spot to recover, do some laundry, eat some food, and soak in the views.
Thanks, @@MirandaGoesOutside! I'm part excited, part freaking the heck out! LOL... I just keep reminding myself "it's just walking, man. It's just walking."
I’ll be doing a zero in Leavenworth as well! Maybe see ya out on trail😁
I'm so jealous, I want to hike the PCT again so badly. Every day is such a treat. Have fun, be safe!
Ok sweetie, I don´t know if you will see this but: so many serendipity moments; just binging around your videos, in the same life situation as you, into hiking, thinking of moving, and I see the main Street of Leavenworth which reminded me of my favourite show from my childhood "Northern Exposure", I google the street, it is Roslyn Washington, which absolutely blew my mind, almost near haha. And, my heart melted even further by discovering and seeing Leavenworth! How fairytale cute the town is! Keep your spirits high, you made an excellent decision! Greetings from Germany 💞
If I didn't move to Missoula, Montana, Leavenworth would've been VERY high on my list of places to move to. I've always wanted to live in Leavenworth. Fun Fact: The Icicle Ridge Trail is where my best friend talked me into joining her for our first Grand Canyon Rim to Rim hike back in 2016. It was then in the canyon later that year where I got inspired to start planning my first PCT thru-hike. Thank you for taking me down memory lane. I got all the feels from this one.
The bell has brought me here, and I am glad for it
WELCOME!! yay notification bell 🔔
Miranda, while we all love regular content, please make sure to not burn yourself out if it starts coming to that. I know a lot of content creators that started out weekly have moved to ever other week, just because the work churn got to be too much. I'm excited to see what you do this year! Just take care of you first. :D
Miranda will likely respond but I just wanted to say I really appreciate this comment. Thank you! Burn out is a big thing on UA-cam. Miranda and I are very focused on not burning out this year. We will definitely take some Sundays off here and there, and some edits will take longer too and we’ll always take the extra time to make sure a video is right, but even so we think we can deliver weekly content most of the year.
I always love how genuine your content is. Wishing you nothing but the best.
My friend from Germany said “Leavenworth is more Bavarian than Bavaria”. 🙂
Yes! More crew shenanigans! Weekly videos: sure, if you can do it without burning out. Super stoked for longer trip videos. Can't wait to watch you guys this year! Cheers!
We moved there as well! Love the outdoors and away from the city. If you ever want to test out some gear, just let us know as we may have it. I’m always cycling or running around the Pine St/Titus block.
I moved here, too and am often walking my dogs on those same streets. 😊
@@angelinabowen6251awesome! It’s been great, and can’t wait for the summer season.
If you saw someone fall off their bike a few times last week going down from the Lev. ski, that was me.
Super excited to see what adventures you take me on this year! Yay!!!!❤
So happy for you!! As someone who grew up in a very small town, you're gonna love it!! I'm on a acreage now and love being able to go out the back door for a hike whenever I feel like it. I couldn't handle the city again!
I'm so looking forward to your videos this year and, yes, we do love seeing Abby & Rainer & Tucker (of course!) Enjoy your new hometown! ☺️
I agree and it is fun seeing your crew friends interacting and having fun with you❤ hope you enjoy your new home!
SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!! Wish you the absolute best in your new home, town, trails, and chapter!
The update I've been itching for!!! Wanting to do a similar move, but going to vicariously live through you for now. So happy for you and wishing you all the best on this new journey you're on.
I love Leavenworth. As former East Coasters who moved to NoCal 14 years ago, my family has made two trips to Leavenworth in the past few years to get a taste of snow, mountains, and Christmas.
Congrats, Miranda! I wish you a great time in the new place.
How exciting! I am so happy for you guys. You deserve this after all the hard work, the risks, and the challenges. You are KILLING it.
So happy for you! Leavenworth is one of my favorite places. Beautiful area! Enjoy your new neighborhood and places to explore.
I'm happy for you! My sons and I have years of memories in the Leavenworth area. Enjoy!
Congratulations on the move and I hope you are happy in the new little town.
So excited for you! i hope it turns out to be everything you hope it can be. Take care!
How exciting..! Looks absolutely magical
Enjoy your new journey in life! ❤
Absolutely love the wonderful and positive vibes of both you and Reiner! Your videos are such a joy to watch!❤️
Congratulations Miranda! That is so exciting for you and the channel. So pumped to see
Your cascade adventures.
Oh wow, if my wife would tolerate the cold, I’d totally live in Leavenworth. Such a magical place!!
After doing the Enchantments, I never wanted to leave! Your are living my dream! I’m excited for you! 😊congrats 🎉
That makes sooo much sense Miranda!! You deserve to be in a gorgeous mountain town. Enjoy the new adventures :)
so excited for you, and looking forward to following along on your adventures here!! -Claire
I love this! What a unique place to live - and yay for more videos and hiking and crew! Thank you for inspiring us to get outside and be ourselves ❤
Congratulations Miranda! that town is beautiful! Cant wait to see what new content this amazing event allows you to make now
Great choice of towns Miranda. I happened upon Leavenworth in the late 90s and remember it well. This is a beautiful small town.
Watched you from the beginning on REI but lost track during our 3.5 yr house/property reno - so glad you popped up on my feed!! Congrats on this next stage and excited to see your new adventures. 👏🏻 ❤ New place, new energy!
The past few weeks I have been wondering if you moved to Leavenworth because I recognized it, congrats! I camped along Icicle Creek for three months in 2013 and it kinda changed my life... since then I have always wanted to revisit the area, especially since I now live a (long) day drive away. I hope it's as special a place for you as it is for me.
It is such an incredibly special place to me, for a ton of reasons, and I'm super jazzed to live here now! I hope you get a chance to visit again ❤️ it never loses it's charm.
Enjoy your new surroundings! It is a beautiful town and on my list to visit. I grew up in a Bavarian town. Looking forward to videos of upcoming back packing trips.
Congrats!!! Love this for you! Enjoy every second of it.
This is a dream town to live in! Feels so homely, quiet and surrounded by nature! Literally a dream, I hope you’re really happy there Miranda 💕
Miranda, I just want to say thanks for all your amazing videos! I moved from the PNW (where I lived for my whole life) out to Pennsylvania about 2 years ago and while I’ve been having lots of fun exploring some of the lovely nature that PA and WV have to offer there’s just nothing quite like the cascades! Your videos give me that little dose of home that keeps me from getting too homesick for the mountains and the forests ❤🏔️
Congratulations! I am so incredibly envious of you! The town looks so adorable and a great place to call home. Best of luck to you! I can’t wait to be a part of your journey. 😊
Thank you so much!! I'm excited you're here for the journey, and I can't wait to share more with y'all! The town is adorable 🥹
Ahh!! I'm so happy for you! Leavenworth is so cool. The bookstore there is amazing! I hope it treats you and the crew so well :')
So happy for you that you're making changes and excited about the future! I definitely appreciate regular uploads and certainly, the algorithm does too -- but, please don't do so at the expense of your mental well being! I hope you remember to take time off for yourself, you need it for yourself and to stay creatively inspired! That said, I'm really looking forward to seeing what you guys cook up! You have a wonderful dynamic with your crew/friends and I love the energy you guys bring to the outdoor space. Cheers!!!
Happy for you. I could only imagine living in a beautiful place like that. I'll be tuning in to see your adventures.
I love Leavenworth! Icecicle river is gorgeous, so much hiking, beautiful mountains. You'll have to enjoy a horse drawn sleigh ride around Christmas. And you're now even closer to over beautiful areas like Wenatchee national Forest, Packwood and bumping lake, rimrock, clear lake and so many other areas.
I moved to a tiny mountain town and what it lacks in access and shopping, it’s more than made up for with the recreation and community. I found that it became easier to be outside than to shop, or eat out or, or lay on the couch. It’s been a life changing environment change, and I am so happy for you! Congrats!
Love this, and I’m excited that you’re excited about this year!Congrats on your new house and the move!
Thank you so much!! I'm super jazzed for the year, and to be sharing adventures + gear recs with all of you ❤️
As a Texas transplant living in Tacoma, the Leavenworth area has been one of my favorite places in Washington since I stumbled on it 10 years ago. Magical every time of year. Definitely jealous-enjoy your new home!
MIRANDAAA!!!!! Omg! I absolutely love your lil mountain town! My dream town to move to is Gatlinburg TN. I completely admire the changes you’ve made and am in the career struggle and wanting to be more outside but stuck in the city most of the time. I can’t wait to see all the adventures you’ll take us on this year😊❤
It looks like you've found your own little slice of heaven. Thanks for showing us around, and I look forward to your future videos.
Congrats!! I love the Alpine Lakes Wilderness! So many hikes/backpacking to do!!
I LOVE it there. I visited some friends there and if I were ever to move to a different state that is exactly where I would move!
That's the Miranda we love . I'm excited to watch.😊💗
Music was on point! 😂
This is truly wholesome, and I'm so happy for you, Miranda 💚
You and the crew deserve all the good things in the world. Especially all the sauerkraut, mustard and beer 😊
You guys are so light-hearted and fun!
Congrats! We moved to the mountains in our little part of the world and it was the best choice. We hike everyday and just love our remote life. We also have a serious Swiss chalet architecture theme in our town. All the best in your new adventure!
My son lived in Seattle for a few years after college and my wife and I had always wanted to visit Leavenworth, so thanks for the tour! Now we want to come more than ever.
Your channel is informative and fun. We love the outdoors as well and do what we can when time allows. Nice job!
I'm super excited for you and a tad jealous!!! What an amazing move for you! Congrats!
I LOVE Leavenworth!! I’ve been a few times, but still need to make it there during Christmas time. I’m so happy for you!! And I can’t wait to see the hikes you do. The few hikes I’ve done in that area are bonkers beautiful. Happy hiking!!
Congratulations...looking forward to the new season.
I've been watching your videos on and off for a while and I just want to thank you for the smiles I get when I watch. I feel a definite affinity with you, your humor, your style! Thanks for sharing and I look forward to seeing more! Being also a hiker/backpacker in Washington I also love getting the low-down on hikes I haven't done yet. Keep 'em coming!
What an exciting year ahead! Can’t wait to see the content you come out with and I hope we hear more about how you’re finding living in a small town (as a city dweller also considering a small town move I’d love to know if you feel you’ve made the right choice a year down the line).
Lake Wenatchee is really c-c-c-c-cooooollllllddddd! Way to go! Fun to see the Bavarian Village through your enthusiasm.
Thats so exciting!! Cant wait to see what 2024 brings 🎉
How wonderful for you!
I assume Rainer moved too? and yes! We'd love to see more of the crew. Definitely!!!
Miranda - You look FANTASTIC! Gratz on the new flat. Hi Rain
Leavenworth is a beautiful place no matter the season! Congratulations on the move! It will make an excellent base camp for many adventures.
Love that town and love that lake! Congratulations! Looking forward to your adventure.
We have a very similar Bavarian- style tourist trap in Helen, Georgia. Your background is much more breathtaking. I totally understand wanting to be really close to trails. Big Congrats!! You're killing it!!!
Oh man!! That is so awesome to see/hear. YEAH!! I've been wanting to visit there to mountain bike. I've heard so much about that place. I am so crazy happy and excited for you and your channel.
I have heard of Leavenworth years back when I used to go to Solvang, CA often. I look forward to visiting some time in my travels.
Happy for you Miranda!!!
So happy for you- most ppl, including myself, are not brave enough to make such a drastic change in their life- love the channel- keep up the positive content- can’t wait to see what you have for in store for the future in your new hometown 👍🏻
Man I love Leavenworth and the whole area around it. Beautiful, and great German-style food to boot!
I love it too!! Munchen Haus sauerkraut on a veggie dog is heaven 🤤
MÜNCHEN HAUS IS SO GOOD
@@MirandaGoesOutside You should put one of their tattoos on your cheek for a random clip in the future and never mention it, drive up engagement for people in the know 🤣
Leavenworth is a beautiful town. I visited for the first time a couple months ago, and just was blown away by its beauty.
That town is adorable & only about 4 hours from Portland, Oregon! Wishing you and Rainier the best experience there.💛
Now you will be able to hit those walk up Enchantments permits. I see right through your cunning plan. Congrats on the move!
You gotta love it when you see the sign Icicle Ridge Trail and there is snow every where...Gosh Darn want an amazing video!!!
Wonderful new move. Look forward to many more adventures and fun.
Leavenworth, WA!! Yeah!!! Great choice. Hope you're loving it.
Good call, Miranda! Best wishes to you and Rainer, living in the wild! Tucker, too....
What a life - Congratulations!!!! 🍾🎉🎈 a beautiful town. Looking forward to your adventures
This cheered me right up today. Thanks ❤
How exciting! You are the best!
2 years ago I visited my best friends sister who lives in Leavenworth!! She’s a forest ranger and took us to lake wanatchee and icicle river! It’s the trip that made me fall in love with the outdoors!
Ah this made me tear up, proud and happy you are finding and choosing what you love and suits you well ❤
I'm so excited to see what you have in store for this year! I love seeing your adventures and learning from you. I went car camping this weekend, and on our hike, every single time we crossed a bridge I had to call out "Bridge! Miranda, a Bridge!" There was no Miranda with us, so some of the group was confused, but it made me happy :)
Miranda, since you are in Washington you need to visit the hikes up by Mt. Baker if you have not done so yet. So many beautiful hikes.
Bigger trips... More of the crew... Weekly videos... YAY! can't wait 😍
