Ice Age Trail: 100 Miles in 3 Days
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 2 พ.ย. 2024
- Looking for a challenge, I set out on a solo backpacking trip to complete 100 miles on the Ice Age Trail. The Ice Age Trail has some beautiful areas, but also has a considerable amount of road walking. The demanding walk did a toll on my feet, but I was able to complete the challenge in 72 hours while disbursed camping along the way. The highlight of this trip for me was standing on a beaver dam and the beaver swimming very close to me before slapping his tail and swimming away.

You definitely earned that big breakfast!
You're my hero. Great job!!
Beast mode!
Looks like a great trip I wouldn’t mind trying
Definitely Beast Mode!! Nice hike! Thanks for taking us along! I can’t decide creepy or cool so I’ll just say it’s a bit strange😂
You are a true trail/road Warrior!!! The miles you go in a day is just absolutely amazing! You have a very high threshold for pain , your feet ouch!!
Thanks again for taking us along on another great adventure!
Great work!
The amount of talking, music and montage of clips was balanced perfectly.
Great video man! Thanks for sharing!!!
100+ miles in 4 days! That's hard core hiking. 3 days......amazing!!!
Great video👍👍
Great hike & fantastic video. Can't avoid those road walks but the little towns are fun, I'd definitely be stopping for beers. Agree with you that the camera does help with the loneliness on solo trips, thanks for sharing!
Great video. Big miles !! You mentioned the Ouachita Trail. Watched all your videos on it.
Currently planning a March 2023 Ouachita Trail hike.
Great job!! That's what I call a weekend hike. Hey, I ended up buying the noxgear 39g. I love it, thanks for giving the review on it.
Love to see you out on the trail and for me, in this way I am able to discover a new part of the States again. Thank you for that. Really like your video's.
Me and my wife are gonna be hitting the ice age trail this weekend with NOW Outdoors. Good to see what the weather is like up there from your video.
Man, you crush miles Jeremy. Great video.
100 miles in 3 days is insane .. I do a very comfortable 12-18 .. Nature is a beast enough
Us Kentucky Boys do like our moonshine stills 😁
Definitely Beastmode brother. That’s really putting the miles in. Myagai will be proud of you 😁.
Cool video and great job.
You're nuts but I admire you! Nice beaver man.
You are a beast! Great video. Hope the feet are better.
I just thru-hiked northern kettle moraine IAT.
Awesome job sir 🍻🤙
Good push stud boy.
That’s what she said. 😂
Great job. Although I Would not want to have feet that have gone through what yours have. LOL
Great content! Curious, do you recommend bear spray in that area?
No
Huge miles & another great video! Do you wear a sock liner + socks?
I do. After this hike I switched to Injinji merino wool toe sock liners and I LOVE them!
New sub! Liked 🙏👍❤️
Trail name: The Beast!
It might have some legs! 😜
and thecaward for the ugliest feet goes to......Midwest Backpacker!!! thanks for another section of the ice age trail. so is the plan to eventually do the whole trail in sections?
keep em coming!!
Not sure. Not a fan of all the road walking. 🦶🦶🤷♂️😂😎
@@MidwestBackpacker the road walking parts would suck. I don't know much abut this trail other than what you and Rob has shown, but wonder how soon they will get to it being on trail and off the road?
I choose answer: e: Rob Pelton
WOW INCREASABLE! How much weight did you carry! What pack did you use? I'm gonna start practicing and hopefully working towards being able to handle 80 pounds 10 miles a day!
I can’t remember my exact weight, but it was probably 19-20 lbs. I wired the Waymark Gear Company 38 liter EVLV made from ultra fabric. Love it.
@@MidwestBackpackerAwesome! Thanks for your response. How many miles could you do a day with that weight if you had 2?
@@thegiantswordworkout depends on the trail and how desperate I was. Maybe 35??
@@MidwestBackpacker Thanks man!
