  • Day #2 of my 2023 AppalachianTrail NOBO thru hike.
    Watching, commenting and providing a "thumbs-up" on my videos is trail magic enough - however if you would like to buy me a beer or slice of pizza I certainly won't refuse! One of the links below can be used. Thank you!

    I’d be interested to hear what you eat for breakfast & dinner. The blueberry shake looked good.

    So good to see ya back out there again! What a nice surprise! Are you using the same shelter you did in 21?
    That hike announcement vid was awesome! Did you bring a stove this time? Take care sir. NQU

      I am using the MLD Cricket tarp again. Once again no stove, just cold soaking this year!
      Thank you for the question and for following along, it's greatly appreciated!

    Nice trail magic! Betcha no Gearys though. I love the woods in winter when there is no snow, it glows this brown-gold like the rippled top of a browning chicken pot pie. Maine blueberries, only the best, we grow our own bluberries. Nice wildflowers popping through winters leaves. Thanks for filming trail conditions, good weather continues, open trail in front of you, tracks behind you, new memories in the making. Good day, 15 miles, wow! Love the Maine Acoustic, as always, your Mid coast Maine Lighthouse fan club, shining bright💡 enjoy the journey, keep chugging North. 🙋‍♂️👻

    A good Maine fella always has common sense. Good spotting that "widow maker" and camping elsewhere chum!

    My backpacking style is alot like yours. I like to camp on my own, too. No drama, clean camp, and nice and quiet because after working so hard all day, I need my rest. Besides I snore and I don't want to inflict that on anyone.

    Glad you came across that beer, too much water might be hard on your system. Lol. Enjoy.

    Beer in the trail magic cooler on day 2! Outstanding! Kudos for not packing one out. Good vibes dude, Crackerjack.

    Another great video and getting some views. Will take a few days to get trail legs. Only drinking and looking out for others. Stay Safe and HIKE ON!!

    I'm happy to watch the AT again with you as a guide. It definitely has helped pass the time, especially with covid and all.
    Do you ever think you'll try the PCT? I'm over on the west coast and would love your take on it.

    OK Day 2 is in the books and a beer to boot. Looks like a nice spot for the night.

      It is a cricket tarp, just a new one. I kind of miss my camo one though! LOL

    Day 2 trail magic with a cold beer.Good deal!!!
    And your camping philosophy is similar to what my mindset would be out there. Find a nice quiet spot to pitch a tent and get that rest and get up early without waking a bunch of people. Though i am not saying anti social is me but all that coughing and hacking action sounds like a germ spreading fester and as I am now just getting over a 2 week bout with the flu I wouldn't want to catch somebody's crud out there.
    Happy safe hiking to you 👍✌️💚🍀👣

    Great video Shaker! I love how you incorporate all the aspects of the hike, instead of just walking and telling us!
    But a question… What the difference between a bunch of water and some water?!
    Just drink beer!
    Safe journey!

    Hi Lighthouse, I've tried leaving a comment from my PC and I get errors. Anyway, I'll comment as much as I can with my phone. I plan to catch your entire hike, so we'll be chatting with you time and again. Happy hiking, Stover
