I am sure the emotions are running high with Mama K so close. I can't help but feeling your excitement. It has been a pleasure following you on this trek.
I know you got emotional seeing Katahdin in the distance. I cannot imagine what you guys are feeling. We are so glad you brought us along for the ride!! Get some rest and enjoy these last few days on trail. Congratulations on your accomplishment!
When you showed you first view of Katahdin way off in the distance, I felt a burst of adrenaline. So excited for you and Bluegrass after following you on this adventure!!
Almost got choked up with you when you Katahdin. Congratulations to you both. Going to be bittersweet the day I watch your summit video. Remarked to Bluegrass, thanks for carrying us along.
That looked like a great place to set up house for the night! It looks so peaceful there. I think that’s why I like my time in the woods because there you don’t have politics, war, bills or all the other things that consume our lives when we are back in “civilization” and now a days, I use that term loosely! Enjoy the time you have left in the emerald paradise! 😁
Hey Chuck! I'm so inspired by you and Bluegrass! How does it feel looking at that 2100 mile marker? Y'all have walked/climbed/hiked 2100 miles!!! It's mind-blowing! I can't wait to do what you're doing. I'd love to have a cup of coffee or two with you when you get back to NC and learn from your experience! Godspeed to you 🙏
My email is chuckhowelloutdoors@gmail.com. Give me a week or two. I’ll be more than happy to sit down with you and answer any questions you may have, or even go over your equipment if you’d like. I’m not far from you. I’m in Denver.
That must be an incredible feeling-to look out across such a wide expanse of country and know you’ll actually WALK all that way to Katahdin in the distance. Wow.
Wow, seeing the reward in the distance after such a long journey must be quite awesome. I hope y’all just took a little time to take it all in. You have worked so hard to get to this point. Congrats to you both. Almost there. 😊
So sorry you’re not seeing moose. I always see them in Algonquin park. They come out to like the salt from the winter which accumulates on the shoulder of the road. Must be very careful when driving. The most I ever saw was on the Skyline trail in Cape Breton. 18 on a single hike. Most were down the cliff but did get between momma and little one. I was a long time standing still on that one. They just kept eating the grass but momma kept a good I on me.
First sighting of Mama K!! That'll get the adrenaline going! It will be an emotional day indeed. Let it rip, it's part of the enjoyment. The culmination of all you've gone through to get there. We'll all rejoice with you and Bluegrass! What a day that will be when Mama K you shall see!! Spinoff from a gospel song you may be familiar with. Take care.
Hey bandit this is Dale vodden by my calculations from when I received day 189 you should be out of the 100-mile wilderness and if not already crested Mount katahdin you should be at the base of Mount katahdin and also I may be wrong but whichever it is stay safe have fun and I'll see you at the end of your videos Happy Trails and God bless
@@ChuckHowell-Outdoors yeah I understand that but still you know it's like come on some common sense and some of those Rivers would be nice to have a footbridge crossing even though that trail is rugged enough as it is it would still be nice though God bless happy trails stay safe you're so close I want to see you make it to katahdin I want to see you stand on that sign

Hard to even put to words. Thanks for hanging with us.

Feels great. If you’re gonna do it, just let me know. I’d love to sit down with you. I know that I wanted that when I was planning my trip.
@ChuckHowell-Outdoors I'm pretty sure you're gonna need to decompress when you get home. We're in Charlotte, NC. I can't wait to see you summit MK!

Yes I am! Thanks

Nothing in the world like it 👍

Yeah. We sat there for a little while and took a break
17 miles is great progress .
Almost there and you have seen the end of the journey
Hike safe.
Thanks Brian

Oh wow! Not a good position to be in. Glad you made it out safely. Still wishing to see one

Yep. Thanks 🙏🏻

Oh yeah. Smells like Christmas every day
Inspiring view!
Thanks

Thank you!!!
How on EARTH does anyone dig a cathole up there?
Hahahaha. You hold it until you can get down a bit😂
@@ChuckHowell-Outdoors oh nooooooo 😂
Almost home❤
Almost!!!
What is it about waterfalls that they are universally appealing? Y’all seem to be picking up the pace - it’s almost like you can smell Katahdin.
Adrenaline 😳
The closer you the faster you will go just be careful you are sooo close🎉 😂
Oh yeah. Don’t want to get hurt now
Neat day, mmma
Sorry bandit fingers not working momma k getting closer,heading north
Yes!!!!! Thanks
I always want to ask the hikers how they go through this entire trail without ticks? Do you have to deal with them?
We treated our clothes a few times with Permethrin. Never had one tick bite
Now you really would think that main would actually put some foot Bridges across those little Rivers or is That me making too much common sense ❓
Eh, it’s supposed to be a bit rugged. It adds to the adventure
@@ChuckHowell-Outdoors yeah I understand that but still you know it's like come on some common sense and some of those Rivers would be nice to have a footbridge crossing even though that trail is rugged enough as it is it would still be nice though God bless happy trails stay safe you're so close I want to see you make it to katahdin I want to see you stand on that sign
Thanks. Yeah. A bridge would make it easier doing high water times
They would probably have to replace them annually, too, after the floods.
Congratulations on your first glimpse!😅 Here’s to a happy summit day from the “Ottada Way Cafe “😊🏔🏕👍👍👍👍✌️🥓
Thanks Bacon Wrap!!
