I love that you not all trail trail trail. You enjoy exploring all that’s around from waterfalls to school houses and even alpacas! Keep on keeping on!
I love how you take the time to share all the little nuances of this hike. We get to see the major attractions and the more mundane which can be just as amazing. Thanks you for the incredible amount of work this must take on top of hiking!
Jay, Long time watcher first time commenter. I have to say this is my favorite video so far. Love that you are taking spontaneous unplanned side adventures and throwing some caution to the wind on how to get there. To me, the essence of a real adventure is taking time to smell the roses and enjoy the ride. Keep on smiling my friend.
On your PCT hike, you met someone and wanted to help them with their TH-cam channel, and I thought, what a nice guy. Now, a couple years later, you want to help another, and I thought, the world needs more people like this guy. Thanks Jay.. The world appreciates you.
Bamboo grows like weed, if you start to grow one it will sprout all over the place in a short time... aaand it's difficult to get rid of it again lol The small white blossoming tree/shrub is called in Latin "Spiraea thunbergii" and the flowers smell all sweet-ish, they bloom from March till May if they don't get frost anymore and all the early Butterflies and Bees love this first meal of the season! I love homemade lemonade with honey, so so good! If I would have a farm, Alpaca would be my animal of choice and Chickens lol (dreaming on) What a great music choice again, you nail it all the time! Thanks for all the hard work you do for us, it feels like walking with a Friend i never met!
Hey Jay! Oh yea, 25F is a bit chilly for shorts 🥶 those rhododendron leaves looked like Pirouoine for sure! Nice how close the water source was to that shelter. Beautiful shelter as well. Nice of you to modify your stopping spot to help out PHD. FYI, youtube is giving me this video at 1080p, 24fps, 13.08Mbit, using vp9. Switching to avc drops it to 9.69Mbit. Those looked like 230kv towers. Each different type of transmission tower can carry different voltage. Those would totally light up a fluorescent bulb. That was some epic trail magic at the school house, huge thanks to the angels that left it. It is so awesome to see spring actually happening. I am so excited for spring to hit up here. Thank you so much for the shots of the alpaca. They are such fascinating and beautiful creatures. Kudos on the stellar stills today. And music! You really killed it with todays video! 🙏 Thanks for bringing us along today. I hope tomorrow’s miles are kind. Keep truckin’ and be well. -Grateful
Well…the old school building tour was nostalgic. Really enjoyed the shot of you entering in the door! Then the alpacas…LOVE THEM! The still shots at the end made my day! 🏚…// 📸🦙…// ❄️= 👍👍
I’m always so happy when two TH-camrs I follow meet. You three are my fav. With the music choice I felt the alpacas were on a grand adventure. I laughed at loud when you showed excitement at the dog treats in the schoolhouse, “like a dog”. Great video!
Like the “little school house on the prairie”. I had finger tipless gloves of Alpaca that I got in Peru once, they were fantastic for photography. unfortunately the dog thought they were great also. I wonder if a guy were to film with a 32-64ND in order to get 24 fps at 50th of a second, if on the pans during video, when you up load at 10 bit, will TH-cam end up mushing out on the bushes and twigs on play back. I hate that after all the effort we put into them. Or maybe my data rate receiving is not the greatest. glad you tried to help your new friend out ( forgot name while posting ). He reminds me of a tall Smurf with his shades on :).
Your videos are always "Jay's exceptional standards ". They are an ( discovery ) expedition while still hiking a trail. That stand of Bamboo took me back to my childhood in the early 50's. Dad had a large stand of Bamboo and the neighborhood kids ( myself included ) would cut a small one as a ( cane poll ) fishing rod. The really large ones we would clime up and near the top it would bend and lower us back down to the ground.
I'm so happy you met with Mushroom and Pink Hotdog. I've been following you all since you started. I hope you have a wonderful time, stay safe God speed.
I was watching Mushroom and Pink Hotdog this morning and they said you were a great guy so I came over to sub and check out your videos. I really like that you take the time to enjoy all the trail has to offer. Great video.
Nice day today….that school house was closed when I passed it, so all I could do was look thru the window…thanks for including the history of it…now I know what I was looking at. I always meant to look it up, but it fell thru the cracks. You’re getting into the long bumpy stretch that makes up VA. Some good things ahead! Including some nice opportunities for hot food right off the trail. It’s almost like Jersey & Connecticut with the deli-a-day stretch.
13:58 Arundinaria gigantea , Giant Cane, River Cane, Switch Cane, American Bamboo... When its numbers were huge, it often seeded out all at once, making what they cane breaks and this invited great flocks of birds to partake of the feast. Humans, too, utilized the plant for basketry and home construction. Today, it is limited to occasional patches, as it was cleared away with European invasion from the 16th to 19th centuries......15:02 could be wild blueberry bushes.
I’m glad you got to see the alpacas! It’s fun to see them cush (lay down). I help a friend with shearing his in the spring and the transformation is incredible. The wool can be 4-6” long and it’s usually very fine and soft. Thanks for helping Mushroom and PHD. I’ve been following them this year too! Such a fun couple.
Your white flower tree sure looks to be a Bradford Pear which while beautiful and an early bloomer, they also stink and are an invasive species in the southeast US. There have been some efforts lately to get people in this area to cut them down and plant new local trees instead. Glad to see you enjoying yourself and taking time to stop to learn about the area and to smell the flowers (seriously don't smell those white ones).
Voltages on those types of grid lines are typically 125,000 to 250,000 volts. I've seen reports it can be as high as 745,000V but have never seen those personally. I have some stories about people who did stupid stuff around those power lines but I won't give anyone ideas here. Let's just say there are some young folks lucky to be alive. That was great you were able to help Hot Dog.
I think they were Bradford Pear trees. They tend to be top-heavy and often fall during storms. And no, it’s not legal to ride in the back of a pick-up (without seatbelts). But I won’t tell if you don’t 😉
Pick up truck ride was hysterical to the Alpaca farm. The green Rhodie tunnels are so beautiful. The Old School House was awesome. Don't need much room to teach reading, writing, spelling, and math. Spring is showing signs of emerging, it will explode on you shortly.
So I have been following your AT hike from the beginning because I am hoping to be a 2024 AT thru hiker and I enjoy your videos. I am also planning to do a section of PCT in about three weeks, from Cabazon to Agua Dulce. So today, I went back and watched your videos from those sections of the PCT. You had quite an injury to your knee during that section. Anyway, you went through that area in the same amount of days I was planning so it was good to see that my planned amount of days should work out. Really enjoying your videos and that of Pink hot dog and mushroom.
I followed Andrew when he was on the trail. Hated that he didn’t finish. His excitement in his videos was palpable. He was so much fun to watch. Old school house was so cute. 🦙 Alpacas!!! 💕💕💕 Glad you decided to go see them and share them with us! Beautiful video. You got some great shots!!! ✌🏻💕
Are you talking about Not Today? If so, he was like a kid on trail, getting excited at each new vista and interesting thing! I haven’t heard much but he started a hostel I think.
April 20th 2008 on one of my thru hikes I was fortunate enough to stop at that gas station at the same time that a guy named Eric Sommer (great musician) was getting gas. He hung out for us and played in the seating area of the gas station for like an hour. Was one of the highlights of the trail for me that year.
So cool to see the curled up rhododendron leaves. We had two rhododendron bushes in our yard growing up and I never saw that. I live in a fairly mild climate tho.
Those "medium size trees" with the new green leaves, i think, are Autumn Olive. They are a invasive species that is a real problem when i live in eastern Kentucky. They are taking over a lot of land and are very hard to eradicate.
I totally skipped that schoolhouse and always regretted it. Sometimes I feel like you're showing me all the stuff I missed because of weather or just my own laziness/exhaustion, so thank you!
I just started watching you I'm going on day 6 and just realized that you are doing this now lol....please reach out if you can when you are doing the Pulpit rock Pinnacle loop area I believe it's the Windsor furnace shelter....it's awesome
I really did enjoy this video my favorite one so far I love old schools and bamboo mushroom and pink hot dog are amazing I wash your and their videos everyday keep safe all my best Ramon from Athens Georgia
Hi Jay! Love your videos. I have been watching from day 1 and have always been impressed with your video quality. I know you are using a GoPro along with you big camera. Are you using a GoPro 10? Can you share your protune settings? I don't seem to get the same quality or sharpness as you do. I know I am doing something wrong, Any help would be appreciated (if you have time).
Are you testing indoors? I have the 10 and they work best in bright light especially outside. Their stabilization requires brighter light as well to work better. I just use 4k 24fps hevc at standard quality, to keep the file sizes reasonable. Is the raw file not as good a quality? Oh yeah, I also use linear with horizon leveling and High for stabilization. Standard picture profile as well.
Great videos! The yellow flower bushes are spice bush. The white flower trees are probably callery/Bradford pears. From the Far East non native and highly invasive. Cut them down!
Pear tree invasive? Does it grow fruit? Spice bush! I just read today that sometimes morel mushrooms like to grow under them... I'll keep an eye out next time.
Yes, Bradford Pear trees are considered an invasive species. The fruit aren't edible by humans. They're very small but birds like them and then spread the seed that results in the trees showing up in all the places you don't want them like wooded thickets and fence rows. They are a bigger nuisance than Wild Cherry, Hackberry and Mulberry, all trees spread by birds eating their fruit and then excreting them wherever they land or fly.
Yeah you made it to the alpaca farm, I remember those guys, have they completed the bunk room for the hostel? I love the setler school house, the caretaker told me that they do allow you to camp inside the school house if you get permission, don't know if that still is the case? Were you able to see the 19th century white farmhouse off a side trail prior to the school house, that was a real cool place to hang out? Anyways I was wondering what kind of rain pants are u using? Namaste bro
Just guessing based on something I heard or read years ago, a 4-wire cluster of wires could carry a million volts. Somebody correct me if that’s wrong. I think it’s either 125,000 or 250,000 volts per wire (so could be 500,000 volts).
.. awesome video ,, love museums of early days ..... desks are made where boys can mess with the girls hair during class ...lol .. Students today wouldn't know how to feed the wood stove without an "app" ...
Ugh bamboo is invasive. It’s not native anywhere on the AT. They spread underground w their roots. They should be removed.😣 Jay, thanks for sending us to support Tony. He spoke so highly of you today, his heart was on his sleeve and it was a very vulnerable moment. He’s a good guy…Im glad he seems to be doing ok. The alpacas are cute…love their wool🥰😎🥾🥾
Lisa, thanks. He left me a voice message when he first had the stroke and his voice was breaking towards the end. I can't imagine how he feels going from being on random crazy adventures to bed ridden over night. He's a great guy. I hope the best for him.
A bit of context on the "$30 a month". In 1894, the US was still under the gold standard where twenty dollars could be redeemed for one ounce of gold. In other words, that teacher was earning about $2925 per month with today's gold price. The remaining question is "What did the average rural Virginia teacher do the other seven months of the year?"
The white blossom trees l think we're cherry and the trees at the school looked like maybe apple. Don't insult the alpacas by telling them their mother was a lama.
I love your curiosity and the way you notice the small things. And the sweet little alpaca faces! You're a great guy, Jay!
What a great guy Jay, and so respectful of all life around you. Still enjoy every vlog you post. Thanks 🙏
I love that you not all trail trail trail. You enjoy exploring all that’s around from waterfalls to school houses and even alpacas! Keep on keeping on!
I love how you take the time to share all the little nuances of this hike. We get to see the major attractions and the more mundane which can be just as amazing. Thanks you for the incredible amount of work this must take on top of hiking!

I really loved the schoolhouse, and the shot of you climbing up to the railroad tracks. Nice work for us to enjoy. Thank you.
On your PCT hike, you met someone and wanted to help them with their TH-cam channel, and I thought, what a nice guy.
Now, a couple years later, you want to help another, and I thought, the world needs more people like this guy.

... same here ... Dog treats are probably healthier than much of the meals hikers eat ...
I really appreciate that you stop to take in nature. To gaze, smell, touch the natural wonders of our world.
I look forward to your positing. You have a unique perspective and commentary about the trail that is very refreshing.
Thank you for sharing. Prayers are still with you
Fabulous! …and the music was perfect. Love love love love!!!!!!!!!!!! 🥾🥾❤️🌲

I'm going outside to look at my trees! Thanks for appreciating all around you and sharing it.
Thanks for another great video!
No, you can not get sick of green color in nature. At least in my opinion
Your white flower tree sure looks to be a Bradford Pear which while beautiful and an early bloomer, they also stink and are an invasive species in the southeast US. There have been some efforts lately to get people in this area to cut them down and plant new local trees instead. Glad to see you enjoying yourself and taking time to stop to learn about the area and to smell the flowers (seriously don't smell those white ones).
Those Alpacas might are so cute. Thanks for all that you share. It’s alot of work.

White flower trees should be Cherry. Wild Cherry. The yellow bushes were forsythia.
Great video Jay
Or they could be Bradford Pear. Agree, yellow flowers were forsythia. Mine has almost turned all green. Only a few flowers left.
I think they were Bradford Pear trees. They tend to be top-heavy and often fall during storms. And no, it’s not legal to ride in the back of a pick-up (without seatbelts). But I won’t tell if you don’t 😉
Good Times!!! Thanks for the great videos
Great time Jay. Loved the school house. Id like to metal detect around that school house. Onward!

I tent to hurt myself often but that slip was a Doogie. Still got large scars from that tumble.
I followed Andrew when he was on the trail. Hated that he didn’t finish. His excitement in his videos was palpable. He was so much fun to watch.
Old school house was so cute.
🦙 Alpacas!!! 💕💕💕 Glad you decided to go see them and share them with us!
Beautiful video. You got some great shots!!! ✌🏻💕
Are you talking about Not Today? If so, he was like a kid on trail, getting excited at each new vista and interesting thing! I haven’t heard much but he started a hostel I think.
@@celestesuter1148 yes! He had a hostel or worked for a hostel, he went to truck driving school and is on the road.
Great video with lots of beautiful views. Nice old school house, so let's keep on hiking...
April 20th 2008 on one of my thru hikes I was fortunate enough to stop at that gas station at the same time that a guy named Eric Sommer (great musician) was getting gas.

WooHoo awesome that you helped him out
So cool to see the curled up rhododendron leaves. We had two rhododendron bushes in our yard growing up and I never saw that. I live in a fairly mild climate tho.
Looks like a great day! A quarter of the way to Mount Katahdin almost!
No, cannot get sick of green!
Nice & thanks
Awesome beautiful vlogging, hiking and scenery, all the very best.
I just don’t know how you turn out such beautiful quality videos on trail. Very professional.
Thanks, Liz! Lots of time is the answer. Sometimes I feel I didn't put in enough time.
Awwww look at the sweet flooofs!
Loved the camera work of you coming UP and over the railroad track! 👏🏻👍🏻💪🏻🙏🏻⬆️
Those "medium size trees" with the new green leaves, i think, are Autumn Olive. They are a invasive species that is a real problem when i live in eastern Kentucky. They are taking over a lot of land and are very hard to eradicate.
Fun!
Rivercane native plant and Service Berry first to bloom in the spring (white). Old timers pronounce it Sar-vis.
Another absolutely beautiful video. Very professional. I have been watching that Jayna Gap and hoping it starts shrinking faster. :)
Have fun hiking!!!
🙏🏻
I totally skipped that schoolhouse and always regretted it. Sometimes I feel like you're showing me all the stuff I missed because of weather or just my own laziness/exhaustion, so thank you!
Bamboo thickets typically were planted to hide the privy’s. I envy you for your hike.
That whole range on the horizon is Big Walker Mtn. There is a big tunnel through it on the way to WVA.
Glad you went to the Alpaca Farm. They were adorable! Glad Pink Hot Dog figured out his settings.
The beauty of the trail...you get to decided...BBQ was worth the alpaca farm...
School house was interesting.
Thx for sharing
There is a old school house in cedar creek Park here in belle vernon pa
Nice episode Jay
👋
Fantastic!
Glad you meet mushroom and pink hotdogs beautiful video
😁😊👍👍
Hate to keep repeating myself, but your doing such a great job with your videos. 👍😎
Scooby snacks ! You were like oh boy!😂
True. If Shaggy ate them I could right?
The tree with the white flowers looks like it could be a Dogwood.
I do more less the same record in 4K 24 then export in 1080P makes the 1080 sharper / look better and also lot smaller file size but I do 30 bit
Callery pear has the white flowers and is in bloom now. Invasive.
Ya you watched not today but I'm still sad he did not finish the at and bbq yum
I just started watching you I'm going on day 6 and just realized that you are doing this now lol....please reach out if you can when you are doing the Pulpit rock Pinnacle loop area I believe it's the Windsor furnace shelter....it's awesome
I really did enjoy this video my favorite one so far I love old schools and bamboo mushroom and pink hot dog are amazing I wash your and their videos everyday keep safe all my best Ramon from Athens Georgia
Lol, been following Pink Hotdog an Mushroom to...they are to funny!
The power line looks like a bundle conductors. It’s probably 230-500kv.
Hi Jay! What is the manufacturer of the green gridfleece shirt you'`re wearing? Great videos, Thank you! Greetings from Germany, Chris
The alpacas seemed excited to see you 😊
Hi Jay! Love your videos. I have been watching from day 1 and have always been impressed with your video quality. I know you are using a GoPro along with you big camera. Are you using a GoPro 10? Can you share your protune settings? I don't seem to get the same quality or sharpness as you do. I know I am doing something wrong, Any help would be appreciated (if you have time).
Are you testing indoors? I have the 10 and they work best in bright light especially outside. Their stabilization requires brighter light as well to work better. I just use 4k 24fps hevc at standard quality, to keep the file sizes reasonable. Is the raw file not as good a quality? Oh yeah, I also use linear with horizon leveling and High for stabilization.

Great videos! The yellow flower bushes are spice bush. The white flower trees are probably callery/Bradford pears. From the Far East non native and highly invasive. Cut them down!
Pear tree invasive? Does it grow fruit? Spice bush! I just read today that sometimes morel mushrooms like to grow under them... I'll keep an eye out next time.
Yes, Bradford Pear trees are considered an invasive species. The fruit aren't edible by humans. They're very small but birds like them and then spread the seed that results in the trees showing up in all the places you don't want them like wooded thickets and fence rows. They are a bigger nuisance than Wild Cherry, Hackberry and Mulberry, all trees spread by birds eating their fruit and then excreting them wherever they land or fly.
Yeah you made it to the alpaca farm, I remember those guys, have they completed the bunk room for the hostel? I love the setler school house, the caretaker told me that they do allow you to camp inside the school house if you get permission, don't know if that still is the case? Were you able to see the 19th century white farmhouse off a side trail prior to the school house, that was a real cool place to hang out? Anyways I was wondering what kind of rain pants are u using?
Namaste bro
17:20 Bradley Pear ?
Forsythia!!
Just guessing based on something I heard or read years ago, a 4-wire cluster of wires could carry a million volts. Somebody correct me if that’s wrong. I think it’s either 125,000 or 250,000 volts per wire (so could be 500,000 volts).
.. awesome video ,, love museums of early days ..... desks are made where boys can mess with the girls hair during class ...lol .. Students today wouldn't know how to feed the wood stove without an "app" ...
What app do you use for your vlog?
Jay, Your living life! Very jealous. Shout out to Andrew/Not Today. Awesome!
White flower tree might be a dogwood.
Ugh bamboo is invasive. It’s not native anywhere on the AT. They spread underground w their roots. They should be removed.😣
Jay, thanks for sending us to support Tony. He spoke so highly of you today, his heart was on his sleeve and it was a very vulnerable moment. He’s a good guy…Im glad he seems to be doing ok.
The alpacas are cute…love their wool🥰😎🥾🥾
Lisa, thanks. He left me a voice message when he first had the stroke and his voice was breaking towards the end. I can't imagine how he feels going from being on random crazy adventures to bed ridden over night. He's a great guy. I hope the best for him.
Yep, it's legal as long as you're 16 and older, or working on a farm or in a parade.
Did you stay at bear Garden hiker hostel?
white flowered probably Bradford Pear tree
Those flowered trees appear to be some type of fruit. Did you find out what they are? I’m thinking a cherry blossom.
I've gotten a lot of answers but most are saying some type invasive pear tree. All I can think is if they grow edible fruit or not though.
What is your trail name?
Alias
A bit of context on the "$30 a month". In 1894, the US was still under the gold standard where twenty dollars could be redeemed for one ounce of gold. In other words, that teacher was earning about $2925 per month with today's gold price.

Thanks to your Grayson pony video, I went and saw the ponies Ank you
That might be mountain laurel
I love it when alpacas tuck in their legs and look like a big sausage 😆
Dogwood tree
The white blossom trees l think we're cherry and the trees at the school looked like maybe apple. Don't insult the alpacas by telling them their mother was a lama.
