ABOUT ME:
Californian exploring the world. Here to share adventures and give you tips about travel, culture, language, and life.
Alan was there last year as well. It is astonishing how far he goes to help hikers and he wouldn't accept donations. What an amazing person.
Seriously, the generosity is above and beyond 🙌
Still watching. Good to see your dad. I get lazy because the of the playlist just jumps to the next video.
Now that was like brunch at a Four Seasons! So lovely and generous of those nice folks! Nick looks great - a lean and mean hiking machine!
Such wonderful views. I can’t wait for next Sunday. 😁
😊😊😊
Sundays have become my new favourite days because of your PCT videos! The views in this one were stunning!
Yay happy Sunday! Seriously, the views were so nice!! 😊
Hiking the PCT or the Appalachian trail has got to be the very best way to see the beauty of the country. Thank you so much for showing us places most of us will never see. As usual a great video!
It looks amazing!
I agree, Linda! There were some days I was overwhelmed with the beauty. So happy I can share it with you 😊
Trail magic @ 3:47 - yes, wow!! that really does look restaurant quality. I'd pay for a meal like that cos it looks sooo damn good. Getting close to halfway and no major speed bumps - ya doin well Mari. Again, excellent photography!!
So delicious! Cheers Ben!
I love it when you woo hoo lol
I Love watching you guys 🙏🙏🙏🙏be safe
Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us. I really look forward to the weekly videos 💕
❤️❤️❤️
Another great video 👍 Such beautiful scenery. I also enjoy seeing you and your interactions with your tramily and people you meet.
Meeting all the kind souls at the trail magic was the best
Look forward to your posts and never a disapointment. Your inspiring me to take the trek. Mari plz do vlog on how you make the map route animation. Would love to incorporate that into my Se Asia video's.
I use an iPad and the procreate app. It’s really nothing fancy!
@@mari.johnson How do you make the line move? Do you screen record yourself drawing along the trail?
Welcome to Lake Tahoe! It is awesome to think that you and I have hiked part of the same trail around the same time. Echo Lake & the entire Desolation Wilderness is gorgeous! Great videos & looking forward to seeing the rest of your journey! 👍🏻🤟🏻
Cool that you hiked there too. It really was so gorgeous!
Great video! So nice for folks to have food ready for you all! Nice seeing your Dad too. Take care, Mari!
You can definitely tell nick was starting to slim out (not bad) just in general the trail was making y’all leaner all muscle. Good work!
DAMN!!! Thats some great looking trail magic ! I think its great that you highlighted the volunteers....with out them there is NO Trail Magic. LOL to the volunteers!!!
Seriously!
I am loving your videos! I thru hiked the Tahoe Rim Trail June 27th- July 9th 2019. I went through desolation wilderness June 30th. Lake Aloha was still frozen. Dicks pass had so much snow you could not see the marker and Dicks Lake was still frozen. Amazing the difference a couple weeks make.
Such a good vlog! Pizza AND burgers...that's 10/10 trail magic!
Between my brother and his fiancee's recent visit and yours this summer ya'll got me missing Lake Tahoe somethin fierce! Perfect time of year to binge watch these magical miles. xoxo
The signs are there that you should go! Hope you’re well ❤️❤️❤️
So nice, trail magic is so wonderful.
Another awesome video! Thanks
Nick and Nick.....hmmm awkward 🤣. That was so nice of your family & friends to meet you in Tahoe. The trail magic was awesome too. 👏
How special to see your dad! Have you ever thought about coming to Tasmania and doing the overland track? It’s right near where I live and absolute magic!
I’d love to one day!! At least hope to visit Tasmania!
Or the Hume and Hovell track on the mainland.
@@mari.johnson You'll love Tasmania Mari its like NZ
Day 89! congrats! Those snow-capped hills were amazing :D
Love your music choices. I’ve found several new artists I love because of your vlogs. the scenery mixed with your commentary in between makes the music grab me more than it would on its own. Thank you 🎶
Look forward to Sunday mornings so I can see your videos! Another great one ❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Happy days - dry trail, good fresh food plus family and friends. Having a physical, mental and emotional top up must be important when thru hiking, especially after the Sierra in a high snow year. Nice one!
So true! You hit it all. Makes such a difference 👌
Gorgeous sunset!
Love the way you've captured these experiences... The raw adventure, mixed with backstory and facts, and a sprinkle of personal touch on top. You're making me want to do the PCT. I suppose I should finish the world travel first! Lol! Cheers Mari!
Haha yes do it after!
I am amazed at the trail angels who make such delicious meals for you. I too am vegan when I can be but I believe hiking the PCT is one of those times when its not convenient.
thinkin outloud ‘Veganism is a way of living which seeks to exclude, as far as possible and practicable, all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose.’ There is no reference to convenience in the definition. Further, the trail angels in this video provided vegan and vegetarian options. Why wouldn’t you choose the vegan option in this situation?
Y’all both look great!! Thanks for sharing the beauty!im in south Louisiana! No hills down here. 😀
Hi there! Hope I can check out your part of the world one day!
Good video. I came from the Whimsical Woman who you highlight at 5.27.
I subscribed your channel and watching every Episode. Good luck
You should hand out your patches on the trail at the trail magic places. and if it is more than two volunteers, put their names on a piece of paper and put them in your hat, draw a name, and have mom or dad mail them a hat.
Nick looking a little malnourished, luv u guys~
I only day hiked areas near Walkers pass. And in-between Kennedy Meadows.
What a trip?
This is the prettiest section so far
a vegan option
I know, right?! So good! Good luck!
@@mari.johnson totally :-) & fantastic work again - very authentic and very well dun!!
Tiger Powers interesting ,even the veggi really doesn’t want to pass up on the juicy burgers and meat pizza! Nature at its finest!
@@garymiddleton607 true yeah *haha. Well if I was gonna get my permit this year I will stick to my wholefoods plant based diet, it´ll be a little difficult (since I don´t do any added sugars (except the whole fruit), added salt/oils, additives either & stay..) but there´s always a way and everyone´s gotta choose what suits themselves best
Go vegans!!!
Wahoo! Trail magic.
Beautiful section.
Great that your Dad came out to see you.
So beautiful!!
Great video as always! Have you and Nick discussed doing any other hikes this year? Or future?
Whoa, Nick really looks like he had lost quite a bit of weight at this point. How did others in your group do with weight lost around this time on the trail? 👊😎...
So AWESOME!!!😊💖🐶🐶
:)
I wish I could've had that trail magic and get spoiled, too. kkk >.< happy for you got spoiled there! ^^
Yeah it was insane! Sorry you missed it!
nicks a bit of a mule. can't believe he carried that much shit thru the sierras. what a man..
I don’t think he had more than most. It’s just the way his pack weight is distributed, which makes it look different.
@@mari.johnson Well then, I suppose it's a bit of optical illusion. Hes still looking like a hunky manly man
Congrats on 27 mile was that ur best one so far?
You look like your dad Mari and he is a handsome man!
Nick looks thinner. Great vid!
You make my Sunday’s. I really enjoy your videos, you do such a great job! Did you ever go back to Vegan?
So nice to hear! I’m about 97% vegetarian at the moment 😬
What are those front facing packs Nick is wearing? @ 7:21
It’s an Aarn pack
I don’t know how Nick puts up with those pouches on the front😖
Your dad looks like Tony Curtis.
If the glasses slipping happens again, check the temple cover that wrap around the ears and shove them up the stems again. I find my nose hurts when this happens because the glasses ride wrong. Nothing like a comment 9 months late.
Hey Mari, what did you use to take your videos? Phone? Camera? If it's a phone, it did quite nicely!!!
I used a camera :) geni.us/eQ4HeC
Wow, you look like your dad
How do the volunteers fund the Trail Magic meals?
Donations from generous people! 🙌
Vegan trail magic options - how did I miss that?? 😭
What kind of pack is nick carrying? Are the chest pockets part of the pack or an add on? Thanks!
Emily E. Mari said in another comment it’s an Aarn pack :)
@@cmzy729 thank you!
Some Aarn packs come with the pockets included in price, others you buy them separately. I have an Aarn pack and the pockets are amazing, carry all my snacks water bottles and sunglasses, hat gloves etc,that I might need during the day. They are designed in NZ.
Not impossible to be a vegan on the PCT. Mary Mansfield PCT 2019 and others. It's all about conviction.
You look like your dad so much it's like if it's him in a female form..
Too much trail for me, I'd do 3 days 2 nights
Great video Mari....thanks for sharing...you look great...beautiful scenery !! So cool your dad met you for a little visit !!
Yeah, it was a treat!
Hello Mari! Wonderful camera shots!! What camera are you using?
Falling in love with your videos so much lately 💗
That burger and pizza looked tasty
They were the best
