    I hiked up to Carter Notch and stayed over night in their very nice Cabin.
    That was 5 years ago and 40lbs lighter
    Thanks for taking me along. I'm 74 yrsold now.

    Looking at my 1969 AMC White Mtn Guide I see I traced your steps on 10/07/1971 after staying the previous night at a leanto which must have been near your campsite at the time. I was 28 and carrying just a daypack and still remember the workout. A snow squall hit me as I cleared the treeline, raged at the Jefferson summit and then cleared with beautiful late day sunlight on Fall colors for the descent, I guess down the Jefferson Loop. what a memory.

    One of your best! You know how much I love the Whites -- in any season. You made two extremely hard trails way harder by treating us to all the great camera work, backtracking and one-handed scrambling. Thank you! And you made the right choice: The Spur is endless...

    27:11 Just did the six husbands a couple days ago and camped at this site. Must say it was the toughest trail I’ve ever done. Would never choose to do it in the rain, or descend down it. Bear danger is real in these parts, too!

    Amazing video. I must admit I was a bit frightened for you on all of those rocks, The good thing about your filming and having all of us along is that when you are hiking solo, you are never alone, so someone would get you help if you needed it. I'm at my cabin in the Smokies now. I'm not hiking; I'm getting ready for a long soak in the hot tub. Thanks for taking me along on the hike. I've never been to New Hampshire.

      Duh! I just came to me , while I was soaking in the hot tub, that your videos aren't live. You did this hike nearly a month before it was posted . Of course you had to edit it and pretty it up for us, so you are alone, but I know you have your messenger and you do keep in contact with your lovely Sarah , and I know you take every precaution and are very careful. Still, those rocks did look dangerous! Glad you made it back safely, Your video is the only way I would ever see that trail, so thank you for that.

    Honestly, one of my favorites so far - and I'm a pretty big fan of your typical content 😂 Sara is a total champ, I could take a lesson in patience but what else are you gonna do in that situation. After the tent debacle, I about died when the beans weren't pop-top. And the hotdog avalanche line of censored profanity. Shit is gonna go wrong sometimes, it's best to live and learn, and it's refreshing to have honest content. Sweet pants too!

I dont think your viewers could even begin to appreciate that loop unless they are familiar with the area. I would have thought you would have come down Lions Head. Wow. Im impressed, that was some seriously grueling hiking. How many ladders on SHT, 4? At one point there was 5 but then it went back to 4. Im shocked you were able to do it after the rain. What is it with men and sufferfests! Good for you. Again you really ought to move here!
    And like, whats up with the thumbs down, trollers?
    Absolutely loved how you referenced Miten throughout the hike, deep respect to Miten! Doing it back in the day!

      And a little "Why, when I was your age" moment.... I did that hike in the early 90s well before the Bill Bryson book. In those days I was considered a weirdo because I was a female solo hiker. (Born too soon!) You hardly saw a soul in the presidentials, and the Appalachia parking lot was mostly empty ...even on weekends.
