I liked the tidbit about fueling the body every hour and thought your education in nutrition is really coming in handy now. Golden light on those mountain scenes is heavenly. You're doing so good. Keep on keeping on.
Your resilience is inspiring! I can’t imagine accomplishing 35 miles with all that elevation change on poor sleep the night before. Plus a positive attitude too. Amazing!
Daaaang.....Big mile day! And you gave the glory to God. I love that. You can pretty much eat anything you want with that kind of a calorie deficit. Carbs, sugar, protein, beer. You need it all.
Your longest and most favorite day on the CDT sounds like an incredible journey of both endurance and joy. Your dedication to this adventure and the passion you bring to each day are truly admirable. It's wonderful to see you embrace such meaningful experiences with such enthusiasm. And I am Floating Village Life.
What an incredible way to explore our country. Your decision to stay the course and walk your own path instead of compromising your journey to keep the whole group intact, shows how mentally disciplined and independent you are. Kudos to you and your trail family whom decided to take the long rewarding path. May God continue to bless you all with all the beauty this trail and life has to offer! Quick question… how do you find the small water sources if they’re not on trail? Who’s carrying the dowsing rods?? lol
Wow, those views are incredible! Now I know why they call it big sky country out there! You guys are amazing hiking this many miles every day! Then you say "We've decided to hike another 9 miles" like it's just a quick stroll in the woods. You're doing great Kelly Hays! Enjoying these videos!
Faith in our Lord can be so, so strengthening! Happy to hear that you have it. Water, at 8 lbs. per gallon can sometimes seem cumbersome and unnecessary. But, having lived in Arizona for a couple years and spending weekends in the Sonoran desert, I quickly learned that it is more valuable than gold! Whether you use a camelbak or another hydration system, that weight seems easy compared to the thought of running out!
Kelly, you are a straight up Iron Woman that deserves to wear the #23 (on and off trail!)... Some things are truly earned... P.S. If you have it, could you give me the lat / lon or approximate area of that 'hole in the ground'? I'm a caver, though I'm not sure I would climb in there due to lose rocks... I'm just curious if it is something more.. Happy trails lady!!!
Day #8 of the people's petition for Kelly Hays to become the official spokesperson for Dinty Moore beef stew. When Dutch settlers discovered America in 1936, they traded maize, beaver pelts & hardtack with the Natives. You probably thought I was going to say they traded Dinty Moore... but that would be absurd, as everyone knows Dinty Moore wasn't invented until 1938.
... Pack of Deer ,eh ?? ... Grrr .. even the Deer know there's safety in numbers .... Wow !! Such AWESOME views ... except for the smoke ... .. Would strongly suggest picking up a good air pad ,, getting good rest is SO important ... The cold , hard ground is robbing muscles of recuperation ..
Howdy Kelly! A pack of deer maybe a herd of deer? Either way deer running means predators close behind..always a sign to be on guard! Nighttime is hunting time! Saddle up!
love you people, wast for ya'll, the known dark be worse then it is... hints are better then, nothing while the blind lead.. no where where i em from do these sites show up, flat wood land.. amazed an glazed, for ya'll ur fav lub an bb powder does miracles, simple plug, love ya'll.. well depends on gen.. xo
Just throwing this out there but have you seen what you have been eating in the previous videos because you were low on food rations you had beans mixed with mayonnaise some salsa with a tortilla thats probably the reason why your stomach wasn't agreeing with you i could be wrong
Lot's of 🙏 praying 🙏 for your safety. Those wicked evil prisoners released into our country maybe more of a threat as the Grizzlies on the lower ends of the CDT.. BUT, GOD is your deliverer ! ❤
"Suck it up buttercup" - love your little sayings. Crack a smile almost every time!!
I liked the tidbit about fueling the body every hour and thought your education in nutrition is really coming in handy now. Golden light on those mountain scenes is heavenly. You're doing so good. Keep on keeping on.
Hiking with other well-seasoned hikers makes such a difference in the pace of the journey and the joy in the journey!
Such stunning scenery!!! Thank you for taking us with you!!!❤
You're an incredible athlete, young lady! 👏 6:28
You're a beast Kelly!! Wow, keep on knocking out the big miles! It was really some beautiful scenery today. Thanks again
Your resilience is inspiring! I can’t imagine accomplishing 35 miles with all that elevation change on poor sleep the night before. Plus a positive attitude too. Amazing!
Amen to God gives you strength. Everyday God gives us strength 😊
amen!
Daaaang.....Big mile day! And you gave the glory to God. I love that. You can pretty much eat anything you want with that kind of a calorie deficit. Carbs, sugar, protein, beer. You need it all.
Wonderful video of a beautiful section of the CDT that is very lightly traveled. From that ridge there are dozens of lakes you can hike down to.
Your longest and most favorite day on the CDT sounds like an incredible journey of both endurance and joy. Your dedication to this adventure and the passion you bring to each day are truly admirable. It's wonderful to see you embrace such meaningful experiences with such enthusiasm. And I am Floating Village Life.
God Bless your journey Kelly!❤🙏

Our app far out lets us know where the water is lovated

Awesome views! Also I thoroughly enjoyed your live video!
Holy crap what great day !!! Beautiful views - even got to see a Bob Ross painting in that sun set. 😁
it's so nice to see you be able to rest at the end of the video haha. We're not even there with you, but we're like "yay, she gets to relax!" 🥲
Your positive spirit will get you to Mexico.
35 miles! Dang, you was in beast mode. Lol
Bought a couple of your t shirts,,, I live in a small farm town in Minn and I’ll show them off “ proudly “ even when I’m farmin 😎
Wow 35 miles 💪that sunset was spectacular !!!
It is like a military operation with strategy included and you all are the grunts with the packs on your back!😂
Kelly i enjoy the heck out of your videos. Stay safe sweetie.
Keep amazing yourself 👍👍👍
Stunning scenery, you are right! I've also never heard you breathe that hard. Must have been a steep, steep climb!
13:30 all I could think was for purple mountains majesty

It's amazing how you just push through gf! We're all so proud of you and praying for you 🙏❣️ Feel the love 😘.
Wow Absolutely Powerful 🙏
The Rockies are so incredible as your super videos show
Amen GOD is GOOD
Magnificent is right. Beautiful day. ❤️🙏🏼❤️
Leadore is led-or not LEE-door. It’s from the mining industry. Lead mines all through the area.
No concept of how you do this type of mileage! I'll never do something like this but impressed with your journey.
35 miles, incredible 😮
Kelly, you are a straight up Iron Woman that deserves to wear the #23 (on and off trail!)... Some things are truly earned... P.S.

I have ibsd and it sucks when you out in the woods have to stop a bunch of times to dig holes.
An interesting observation: i can hear your footsteps and your pace is very rapid with a very even cadence. That's a good thing!
6:19 A trail rated - motorized bike, might look good to a hiker about now.
My wife and I were up on Lemhi pass in May.
Great video !!! 35 miles !!!!

God delivers.

Breathtaking views today!
Can see we’re the name Rockies comes from now 😊
How many pairs of eye glasses do you have? 😊 😜 This is awesome. These spectacular broad landscape shots you get are exciting.
Nice pile of bear scat at the water hole 😳😂

Hard work and determination is 100% legit!🌲🤙🏼 I love how you show the real side of the outdoors. Stay safe
Wow, incredible views!!!
Wud it be better to have a drone follow and record?❤
I sell plans on how to make a drone from pine cones for $1.
Howdy Kelly! A pack of deer maybe a herd of deer? Either way deer running means predators close behind..always a sign to be on guard! Nighttime is hunting time! Saddle up!
They weren’t running they just snoop around our tents at night looking for something salty
@@kellyhays23 okay! Cool! We have bears all around our cabin and they are def after the fawns right now…and of course ya never see the mt lions.
Deer are your best friends.
Did you say 35 miles? ❤🎉🎉congrats.
I was very tired today 😊
Incredible views.
Did one of your trekking poles snap?
Yes lol the bottom bit it’s usable
So will you drop your bear spray once you get out of Wyoming

Hard work and determination is 100% legit!🌲🤙🏼

BIG MILES ONCE AGAIN 👣💕
You’re very pretty Kelly. I wish I had a girlfriend like you have a beautiful day.❤

Amen and yes. The Lord will keep watch in the name of the Lord. Blessings
Your face is really thinning out. You need to pack more calories.
Can't image doing that mileage. (maybe 30 years ago) but even then pretty doubtful. lol
