Stunning views in this one. And that river crossing and bushwhacking was something else. Whew! Nice piece about the skill of hitch hiking. Just as the clock was ticking down, a trail angel appears! And with dogs, too. How cool is that. The trail provides.
That smile with that puppy on your lap, says it all about your heart, my friend! If you don’t have one somewhere waiting for you, I hope you get one someday and I hope they become your hiking partner!
Dipper! One of my fav birds. They bounce like that so their prey doesn't see them above the water Hitch-hiking. Oh the memories! I hitched between Leavenworth and Seattle oh so many times! Now I drive a Toyota Tacoma w/canopy and yup, I'd have given you a ride. Happy to see your video tonight. Hope your leg is feeling better! Keep smiling! 💜
Bird was an American Dipper. They have that signature move 💃🏻 I second the crocs. But that means taking the time to don and doff. Depends on your tolerance of wet shoes! Wait! I’m sad. I Drive a 2019 GMC Sierra 2500 Denali.. and I pick up CDT-ers when I see them around! I’m also a “conservative” so I think I am your statistical outlier! Great pics!
That made me sad too. I’m conservative and everybody I know that is conservative would’ve picked him up without a doubt! Some of the women, if they were alone or with their kids might not have stopped , erring on the side of safety due to fear… not judgment. I grew up in a really dangerous metropolitan, transient area where we were taught rightly to be very careful trusting anyone. I have too many stories of horrible things that happened to women who picked up hitchhikers and were themselves hitchhiking. I’ve picked up my share and I’ve passed by my share because I pray and then go with my gut. Even the times I’ve felt like some thing was telling me don’t do it, I drove away, feeling so sad for the person in case I was wrong. But I chose on the side of caution and safety. No bad intent toward the person. Also, something happens different in your reasoning once you have kids. It becomes extra imperative to make responsible decisions. You have to be there for them and that could come to a sad end if you pick up the wrong person, even if there as cute as Jaru, lol😅
Wow, some awesome views. You are one gutsy hiker hiking at night. Bears and snakes would worry me first, then the paths that literally are on the edge of the mountain. Kudos to you. So glad i found your channel.
Sorry it took you that long to hitch. However, even as a woman, if I were to be sitting down, not smiling, it'd have been hard to get a hitch. I'm always smiling, waving, putting my hands together and saying pretty please. My hardest hitch was in Glacier about a month ago when I had to get my permit before finishing the CDT. Even with smiles, a sign, eye contact, etc, some people gave me looks of disgust. They were, mostly, rich white people with fancy cars "experiencing the outdoors" on a National Park. However, both rides I did end up getting, went out of their way for about 30min each to get me back to East Glacier. One was two guys from Scotland who were visiting US, the other was a young guy with an old truck who works in the NP. I do believe that, outside of NP, if you have a more positive body language and a smile in your face, it's usually easy. I've met the kindest people out hitching and I really appreciate every single one of them. 🙏🏽💛
Look’t Jaru all judging ehbuddy by dey cahs n dey geo-GRAPHY! 😂😂😂 lolol!!! I feelz like I met a side o you I hadn’t seen befow!!! C’mon naw! Youz jist hawngry!!! Gitcha a lil sump’n f’yo palette! JK! JK! Don’t block me! I LOVE your videos!!!! ❤
Then again conservative often think completely wrong about what they call liberals. They often confuse the far left and the version Fox and News Max feeds them. My wife’s family is from Texas and when they visited our rural liberal New England town they were surprised to hear gun fire. I told them on weekends in the fall there are two common sounds that are not nature, chainsaws and guns. There right wing news has convinced them we are trying to take their guns. We only would like common sense laws. There is a reason the states with the highest gun violence are red. Little to no gun control. Cables news and algorithms want to divide us. Take care
@JaruWalks lol, I'm also not near a trail town just the middle of nowhere, and the dollar general is a ten mile round trip, keep up the killer job you're doing
But would you really want the rides you get as a woman? Repeatedly come up with good ways to say no to "would you like to earn 50 on this side road here?" Have your legs touched up by an old man as payment for being driven 1 km. It is not all fun.
I loved watching you hitch. So real. And the detour was spectacular 👌

Love how your mind works, the whole hikerhiker scene.
Best scene yet! I was sticking my thumb out with you. 👍👍

This boulder
Thru-hiker poetry!

I enjoy your videos and also love your conversations with the camera 😁 You are so honest! Thanks for the videos
Hello. Wow. All of your Experiences. Day after day. All Good Wishes for YOU.!! Some of those passes ~ Thank YOU for sharing.
Idk why, but the hitching footage was spectacular. been watching for awhile, finally subscribed.
"Nightshifts guide to hitchhiking" and it was so hard to watch all of those cars pass you.
Thank you for including the hitch sequence. I have a better sense of what it would be like for me if I ever needed to try to do it.
loved the hitch sequence! man..i’ve been there….
-Majestic scenery!
Loved catching a hitch with you man.
Scenery…gorgeous! Hitchhiking…disheartening!

Nice scenic detour.

Glad you finally got a hitch
I bet you're on the cdt by now, can't wait to compare your cdt vs Kelly Hays hikes
Look’t Jaru all judging ehbuddy by dey cahs n dey geo-GRAPHY!

Youz jist hawngry!!! Gitcha a lil sump’n f’yo palette!
JK! JK! Don’t block me! I LOVE your videos!!!! ❤
You have more patience than I would awaiting a hitch. Must be an art to it. Maybe you are a little more suspect as the bubble has already passed.
Berry at 25:00 is not a wild cherry, looks like the highbush cranberry: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viburnum_edule
35:58 maybe they think you’re asking them to Like and subscribe 👍
The irony is, I’m the only UA-cam channel to ever exist that has never once asked watchers to like and subscribe.
It might be cause you are sitting down for sure! You definitely seem confident about your opinion about conservatives and I think you are mistaken.

I think you are probably right about conservatives.
Your hitch hiking rules are 100%, I got like a 99.995% failure rate

Homeless people don’t wear shorts like yours. I think they work in your favor. 🙂
But would you really want the rides you get as a woman?
