CDT Day 154: Outta the Woods
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лют 2025
- I am carrying my tent, food, and all other necessities 3,100 miles from the Crazy Cook monument on the US / Mexico border in New Mexico through New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Montana, and Idaho before finishing at the Canadian border in Glacier, National Park! In 2021 I thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail and I will be relying on the experiences I had to help guide me safely and happily cross the deserts, mesas, prairies, basins, forest, and mountains of the American west.

Sorry to see the journey end, its been a lot of fun following along. Helped me to survive a season of not being on trail.
Thanks, Greg!! Should I look forward to following your hike next year? 😀
@@travelinbeat thats a possibilty. I have put together a new ulralight kit and have been putting in the miles every week. I do have some personal things I need to put in order. I will keep you posted. I am thinking another PCT thru, or if its a crazy snow year going on the AT.
Thanks Beat. I’ve loved your videos. This journey and these videos have been a gift. I’m beyond grateful for the peace and joy and inspiration you’ve shared with us.
Peace and happy trails always
Miss you already! Enjoy your home, doggy and wonderful wife!!
Thanks, Paulie!! I see you've discovered the AT videos, too!
@@travelinbeat no need to reply to my ramblings over there but I may comment from time to time!
Congrats bro. Great finish with the entitlements of a turnover AND bear claw at the finish line. Now go get that triple crown.
Haha, thanks, Laz!! Congrats to us both!! Hope the new house is going well for you and the Mrs!!
Hard to believe you've finished, look forward to you completing the triple crown
Thanks, Tammy!!! It's been amazing and there's plenty more left to do in the off-trail realm of videos!!
❤
Great journey. SO many wonderful place you have taken your viewers. you travels were a highlight of my summer. You are a motivation to continue hiking. keep my head in the game. You may pass me on the PCT in the future. You brought Joy to anyone watching.
Thank you, Jorge!! I've always enjoyed sharing my passions with others and I've been flattered and honored to attract and hold the attention of folks. I appreciate your comments, support, and kind words!!
What a great hike it was! Thanking you so much for making the effort to film all this for us to watch. It was fantastic! Can’t wait to see more.
Thanks Mark!! So happy you plan on sticking around any hanging out with me after the terminus!! Looking forward to getting several more videos up in thee weeks / months ahead!
Certainly looks more fun than festooning over portos.
Hey don't knock it till you've tried it!! 🤣
I will miss your videos!
Thanks Lenny, I'll miss you! But stick around, there's still plenty more yet ti come, it just won't be on the CDT!
A shooting star to celebrate your thru hike! Too perfect! And getting a boat ride across the lake - amazing! So many uniquely serendipitous events ushering you back to your other life. Congratulations on completing the CDT - and for sharing the sights, so artfully, so carefully, recorded and edited.
Thanks!
That was an epic ending. That's a part of Glacier you don't see or hear too much about.
Thanks Max!! It was certainly random enough to be memorable, and the views in the morning coming down Beown Pass were FANTASTIC!!
Something to be said for living moment to moment....well done and see you down the road...
Goldfish life!!
few QA questions
1. Best trail magic along the trail
2. scariest moment?
3. most awkward moment?
4. so you spent all that time out there and no UAPs or bigfoot??
5. is it a known rule that everyone fends for themselves when they link up with other hikers? do you accept another hiker buying a town dinner? or politely refuse to set the boundaries?
6. lightning. anytips for the constant for sure feeling you will be struck at any moment anxiety ?
Congratulations! What an adventure! Thanks for letting us tag along with you on the trail. Looking forward to future content! Thank you!
Triple crown here you come! You’re almost in California anyway😅
Haha, yeah should just slide over there and start!! 😆
Congratulations on completing your thru hike of the CDT. Looking forward to your attempt of the PCT to earn your Triple Crown. Thanks for taking us along with you...
Thanks, Andy!! What an amazing adventure it has been!!
Awesome stuff York thanks for sharing.
Inigo Montoya! Thanks!!
congrats on finishing the trail!!! Polebridge is a great place. Thanks for letting us follow your journey!
Thanks Scheidemantle(s)!! It was an amazing and unforgettable adventure and I'm thrilled to have had you along!!
Congratulations, Beat on completing your CDT journey. My nephew will finish his hike this week. Many blessings to you!
Congratulations to you nephew, Kay!! What an awesome accomplishment!!!
What a joy your hike has been to see. Thanks for all the hard work.
Thanks for coming along, Lisa!!
Congratulations! 🎉
Thanks, Mike!!
I’m hesitant to watch this vid and not going to watch the previous one until I get back to a better computer. Watching it on the phone will not do it justice. Well done Beat. I’ve enjoyed tagging along. Watching the early vids now and enjoying them as well. Can’t wait for your next adventure
Thank you, Kirby!! I'm excited to rest up a little, try and put back on some weight, and get ready for the next journey!!
Congratulations bro 👏
Thanks, Double8!!
Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful trip. Loved it.
Thank you, Nancy!! I've enjoyed sharing it!
That was quite the grand finale with the shooting star and the boat ride! What an amazing journey you had! My question for your Q&A, should you choose to answer, is: how do you feel this hike impacted you emotionally, spiritually, and physically? What was your biggest area of personal growth? Thanks again for all of your videos!
Good question One Cool, thank you!!
Congrats 🎉🎉🎉
Heya, thanks, J3!! Hope you're well!!
Thanks for the tips, insights, and for sharing some of the great views of the CDT. Congratulations on your Triple Crown!! Good luck!
Thanks Luis, it's been my pleasure!!
Great day, great hitches! You’re already looking less through-hiker-ish 😂 I’m so happy for you, a great accomplishment!
A couple last questions on my
mind…Virgo or Libra? (My bet is Virgo with all your careful planning and prep) Also best day and worst day?
Take good care Beat, happy trails!
Haha, alright, well thanks for this question!!
Is ‘Outta the Woods’ an homage to Wum’s favorite singer?!
Haha, no I'm afraid this was not a Tay reference, just a stand-alone title 😅
Bye Beat!
Goodbye is such a bummer! I'll be off trail but I'll still be posting periodically as I did after the AT last year! Hope you decide to stick around but if you do not, thanks you for spending some time with me this summer, Robin, it's been fun!!
I'm sad it's finished.
Me too!! We'll have more adventures together, Williem!!
What do u do for work in your “off-trail” life?
Bars, restaurants, and special event production work with focus on lighting (everything from 200,000 person music festivals to awards ceremonies for dignitaries hosted at the US Capitol or Library of Congress, and from corporate galas at Smithsonian museums to weddings at the Ritz Carlton). These pursuits keep me as busy as I want to be when I want to be, but then also provide the flexibility I need in order to take several months off at a time
Do u have a spreadsheet with details of your 154 days, e.g., daily mileage, total mileage, camp spot “name”, town, motel, links to your daily Gaia file, etc…. If u have this file, u could share it from Google drive or ??
I do! I need to brush it up a little but I will have it ready for the Q&A video drop. I plan to update all of the video descriptions to include links to both this spreadsheet as well as a link to the entire hike on Gaia, in addition to the daily ones that are already on there
@@travelinbeat thx..
