So fun watching you guys..... But......I want to hike and I can't right now....arrrgh 👣. I've hiked Ocala several times. The springs are incredible. Stayed at Juniper Springs a couple time. 88 store is a great hangout. You can order pizza for delivery and camp right behind it.
I'm glad you are doing this trail, and I can watch. Because I will never do this. Your AT and PCT tours are epic! Followed you on all. I'm the dude that declared you the official honorary Fla Girl. This is surely securing the title 😉 You are going for it.
Adventure Ocala runs several of the parks out there. It's crazy to have a 2 day min, but even crazier that they have a 2 tent max per site. Two cabin size tents take up much more space than (in my case 2 adults-3 kids) 4 backpack size tents
Ha! Whenever I start watching footage (pun intended...) of your feet actually walking on the trail, I instinctively mistake the white sand for snow.... :) Love watching your channel and hiking adventures!!
YEY!!! You went through my favorite section... I have sectioned hiked from the Seminole State Forest at Black Water Creek Camp to Rodman Dam. Love that whole area! I am with the FTA Highlanders Chapter that maintains that section. 🙂 Hope you enjoyed it! Dana Happy Trails 🥾🥾🥾 PS The cal in Ocala is pronounced Cal like in California. 😉
400 miles 🎉Ocala national forest is a Florida treasure! The 88 store is a great pit stop in the Ocala national forest. They used to let hikers camp behind the store. Not sure if that’s still true.
That was a beautiful section of woods. All the little palm plants that you see most fall under the category of palmetto palms, thought you might like to know. Stay well and safe. Congrats on the 400.
Cool video, some parts looked like you were on the set of Gilligan's Island. Question, a lap top is too heavy to carry, what are you using to edit and send videos to you tube? Out in the sticks?
Hey Kelly, did I hear you correctly when you said it was$76 for a two night stay? To set up a tent? Really? Is that the norn? Wow that seem a little $$$!
I saw that place before on the Flintstones. It's where Fred Flintstone lived. There are probably descendants of them nearby even today. Good job. Keep goin'.
Make sure to check out Alexander springs in the Ocala national forest section. I believe it is on your route and is right off the trail I believe. A nice spot! Congrats on 400!
I grew up in Ocala (the 60's-70's) and spent a lot of time recreating in the National Forest. The FT didn't have any significance back then even though it was essentially birthed in that area. I suspect this section may be one of best and I'd like to go back (I'm a native Tarheel back living in NC) and hike that section.
Kelly so sorry u didn’t get much rest the night before u should have gone to the shelter and tell them to be quiet., lol just kidding don’t ever do that .. stay safe and dry as much as possible my friend.. love ❤️ from New Mexico 👋👋😊
Was just waiting for someone in a t-Rex costume to jump out. Sweet scenery even if the trail is a soggy mess! 😇😂 Edit: today is -22C. I enjoy seeing the warm weather even if you aren’t enjoying being in it 🤷♂️😄 Thanks for showing the food. Rounds things out nice. That’s part of what one looks forward to when the trail gets hard. I feel better knowing y’all are getting enough calories.

Ocala National Forest is where I did my first ever backpacking trip! The 88 Store to Rodman Campground. Beautiful area!

Kelly just keeps on going. Incredible toughness most men dont have. She is a special one
💥400💥 So bogus the shelter peeps were loud. That's just trail etiquette 101. Beautiful hike. Rest them shoulders. ✌️
The Ocala Natl. Forest is one of my favorite parts of the FT. Alexander springs, Juniper Springs, Hidden Pond are all great places to cool off.
Those springs though! Love it.
Wow, that's crazy that a National Forest campground on a long distance trail has a 2 night minimum! At least you got a shower though.
I love Kelly! I wish I had a sister that was such a kind person and she is really beautiful! ❤😊
Grats on passing 400 miles! Did I see that Bone General had produce??? Amazing! 😂

Has you go north the elevation goes up. You should see more dryer conditions. Thank you for sharing you journey ❤
There are some hills in the Keystone Heights area of Florida, some in Gainesville as well and a lot in Tallahassee.
In this area you are finding the natural spring water. You are getting into the more central Florida and yes the elevation changes.

Congratulations on over 400 miles. Y’all are getting it done.
400 miles way to go! Love how you readjust plans on the fly as needed

I would of woke up early and start being loud and banging on things time to get up!!! If I didn’t sleep you are not going to sleep. Lol
congrats on 400
fun and good videos
Love the clear water springs. Love this trail. Love you guys. California Joanna

400+ miles and still kickin’ it!👏👏👏

90 degrees, the high for tomorrow here in Montana is 8 degrees.Great video.
Your faithful subscribers are with you good times and bad...didn't know the trail has been around that long, thanks for that history lesson!
Hey Kelly! Looks like some cool terrain. 400 miles and flying! Way to go !

How are you liking the foam pad
Beautiful section so far
lots of bears in the Ocala National Forest you probably see or hear them.

That's amazing 400 miles you got me beat
Sorry I missed you. You and James make the trip back when your done with the FT and we will do a TON of spring hoppin. Hit me up

Why don't you wear gaiters to keep the stuff out of your shoes? Might help with the blisters
Amazing how 5ft of elevation can keep your feet dry and 10ft feels like you're on a different trail...
IM GETTING READY TO DO MY FIRST HIKE AND WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT DOES YOUR BACKPACK WEIGH FULL?THANKS
Casual observation: You look good dirty!😆👍❤️
I wonder if the Florida trail was an escape route
No gaiters kelly
I dislike rude, noisy people like that. Have consideration for others. I would've got up early and not worried about making lots of noise.
