Pretending to Be an Ultra Runner on the Mountains to Sea Trail
My goal was to finish segment 5 of the Mountains to Sea Trail by running the final 44 miles from Deep Gap to Devils Garden Overlook. I only made it 35 miles finishing near Laurel Springs.

DO NOT Hike This Trail in Summer - Fires Creek Rim Trail
มุมมอง 1.5Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Research suggested it was a bad idea. Experience confirmed it. Avoid the rim trail in summer. It was challenging and probably would be a great experience in other seasons. A wild and remote area. Plus nearby towns to visit. Can't wait to go back.
Mountains to Sea Trail - Over 130 Miles of Awesome in 6 Days - May 17-22, 2024
มุมมอง 3303 หลายเดือนก่อน
May 17-22, 2024. After unexpectedly getting off the Appalachian Trail I made it over to MST and hiked all of segment 4 and 40 miles of segment 5. It was an amazing journey up and over mountains, along a gorge, past countless waterfalls, across more than 20 streams, through protected areas and zigzagging besides and on a parkway. Beauty and pure nature were everywhere.

May 22, 2024 - Day 6 of 6 on the MST. Segment 5. After waking up from a bed and having breakfast I hit the trails to finish up the journey. I came across some old farts (officially the Old Farts Hiking Club out of Wilkesboro), saw some fighter jets and even more pastures while hiking along the Blue Ridge Parkway. Just before finishing up I crossed paths and chatted with Shelton Wilder who is a ...

May 21, 2024 - Day 5 of 6 on the MST. Segment 5. You never know what to expect when you start moving. I didn't know where I'd stay for the night or how far I'd hike. This day's hike brought me through trails, forest roads, parks, old carriage roads and paved roads. I walked through forests and wide open fields. I visited a manor, saw horses, deer and snakes. I was chased by cows (multiple times...

I moved into segment 5 passing Linn Cove Viaduct and Rough Ridge. Along the way I experienced amazing views of Grandfather Mountain, the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Blue Ridge Parkway and even the peak...

May 19, 2024 - Day 3 of 6 on the MST. Continuing on with segment 4. After leaving the Linville Gorge the trail mostly followed streams, going by several amazing waterfalls (Steels Creek, South Harper Creek Falls and Harper Creek Falls), viewing a spectacular box canyon from an amazing overlook and challenging me with 13 stream crossings! Another day of 20 miles and the miles were worth it. This...

May 17, 2024 - Day 1 of 6 on the MST. Segment 4. After changing plans and switching from the Appalachian Trail, I started the hike at Black Mountain Campground and hiked as far as I could to get to the edge of the Linville Gorge Wilderness Area. I needed to be able to hike through the Linville Gorge area on day 2 since it was a weekend and I didn't have a permit.

Lower Haw River Trail

April 27 ,2024. I found this trail the night before using the AllTrails map search. I hiked from the (small) lot at Highway 64 on the Haw River near Jordan Lake to Bynum and back. There's an old road bridge in Bynum which is not a footpath with a lot of grafitti.
Every Single Trail in Umstead State Park in One Day

April 14, 2024. I came across a FB post about doing every trail in William B. Umstead State Park and decided why not? I had a free day so I decided to give it a go. It was hard but rewarding. It was also interesting to see every trail on the same day and be able to compare and contrast them. Here's a Strava link to the "Every Single Trail in Umstead" route that I mostly followed: www.strava.com...

Hike to Harris Lake on the Trails of Holly Springs
Beautiful shots!
Great vids & super helpful!
Just in case you can warm up some water to just under boiling and put it in your drinking water bottle then put it in your sleeping bag, helps for a long while. Liked your video and I'm planning a feb 2025 FH hike.
Do you happen to know where I can find the GPX for this??
Here's a link. You should be able to export the GPX file from it. www.strava.com/routes/2821063996474097056
How was the Section between Clingmans Dome to Cherokee that maze of trails kicked my butt at first Trails going everywhere Reservation land No Blazes when I did it Linville Gorge watch out for Huge timber Rattler's
That was just beautiful. So glad you shared it. Thanks. 😊
I enjoyed the part thru the smokies. I don't think they're allowed to have blazes in national parks. It wasn't too bad using FarOut. Sadly I didn't see any rattlers in the gorge. I saw one a few years ago hiking the loop with friends.
When it's reservation land or Designated Wildlands No Blazes are allowed
Nice video. I plan on hiking this in a few weeks. Do they allow camping at, or near that beach/picnic area at the northern terminus?
You can camp anywhere. I noticed after leaving the old picnic area there are signs saying that area is off limits. So I think anywhere along the beach before the picnic area would be fine. When my kids were in scouts we occasionally camped on the beach. Note, the water at the beach is brackish so you'll need to hike water in to that point.
Nice video! Looks like you had a great adventure. I'm planning to do this thru-hike mid-July of this year. Glad to see someone report out about a more recent trip!
Thanks. Hope you have a great trip!
Thanks for sharing! I‘d love to live in the US and visit some of your great national parks.
That's pretty impressive to do it in 4 days. Most do it in 5 to 7 days. Great Job!💪👏👏
Thanks!
Great video series. I like that you show a lot of shots of the trail. Good commentary on the terrain too. Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it
