Yeah! You met my favorite Ent! This is my favorite favorite section. ❤ I repeated this section for years before deciding more recently to attempt the rest in section hiking. Right now I'm super loving your videos because you're showing off my favorite places!
So good to see you guys at Roan. It’s so beautiful there. I hike there all the time. When you finish this and you will finish you need to come back when the Rhododendron and Flame Azaleas are blooming. It’s the most beautiful thing ever.
Such an awesome job of showing the Roan Highlands...The best I have saw on TH-cam 🙌🙌...I do this section every year because I love it that much... Keep pushing NOBO...
I so enjoy your videos! I must say you show so many good views of your hike. It makes me want to hike so much more. And love your honesty and true self. You made me laugh so much about the mud. I would so be cussing too. 😅 And tell Scout I am going to use his PB/Nutella/trail mix taco on my hikes… that is totally awesome!😊 Happy Trails! 🥾✌🏻
I have not heard any one say " wicked good " since I was a teen on the south shore of Ma. Its brought back many memories of summer nights and escapades. Hike on you are doing great.
Omg, I bet Chief was doing the happy dance. Did he know before you contacted him? Thank you for taking the time to read that plaque. Some interesting history info. A great lunch spot and Scout made an awesome lunch. Love that tree. The walling talking tree was just taking a break. Lol. Be careful on that mud. Sorry, but I had to chuckle when you were cussing the mud. But not when you fell. 😢 keep trekking. 😀
That tree absolutely looks like a LOTR ent. 😃 😋 …Scouts tasty taco made me drool. 🌮 #%@🤬#%% mud. Brilliant Blue sky. Gorgeous rolling hills. And mountains WHAT? 🤣 Bigfoot cave. 15 miles. GREAT DAY GREAT VIDEO. 🌲🌲❤️🥾🥾⛰️🥾🥾❤️🌲🌲
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I love that you just say what you think, I hate mud to. Here in Colorado as the snow melts we go from ice and snow to mud. I absolutely hate mud.
You know what you are doing hiking on ice, but be careful - especially as it begins to melt and gets a skim of water on top. Tree at 16:22 looks exactly like an Ent from LOTR. And you are right, the mud is worse than the ice. At least ice doesn't stick to your shoes.
Does everyone from up North refer to all evergreen trees as Pines? First time I've noticed you calling trees pines that aren't but I have noticed several other thru hikers doing this. NC has a wealth of pine trees and several different species, but most of the evergreens at the upper elevations are fir and spruce, including those today in the Roan Highlands. Just curious. And I have to say, you cracked me up today fussin' about the mud! I laughed out loud a couple of times.
Great point about the pines. I think it’s just habit because you’re right - they aren’t all pines. I think for me I lump them together. I love evergreens!!!
Those views off Round Bald were fantastic. And to think of the historical footsteps you traveled in of those same revolutionary war soldiers who marched towards battle. Chief needs to make sure the pull string on his tent pole bag is tied off and not dangling about 😂 good thing you lollygag and take your time to enjoy the views along the way or he'd be sh*t outta luck with those!... And you totally sound like me if I was slip sliding in mud like that bustin my a$$ lol... *#^×*&%)!!@**#@$&]T hahahaà. Be careful and hike safe in that earth poop y'all!!! 👣✌️💚👣🍀👣
Never seen that sign about the soldiers march. Thanks for sharing 👍
When you talked about the mud, it was soooo funny! I wonder if people cut off the switch back sections by cutting through the fields?😎
Beautiful views. I agree with you on mud. Your videos very informative. Thanks for sharing
Wish they would renovate and open the over mountain shelter back up. It’s so iconic on the AT
I agree 100%!

LOL you found an ENT! 😂

The prettiest section in the Southern AT! My great, great, great….was an Overmountain Man…and was awarded a land grant for it in Erwin.

Happy Trails! 🥾✌🏻
I am so happy that you had a clear, beautiful day, for the views of the mountains from the balds! Amazing!!
Me too it was amazing!
What an amazing day in my favorite area out of Carvers Gap! You guys are doing great. Rock on
That tree sure did look like a Ent!

Wicked is a Massachusetts word.

I need to know too, if Chief realize he was missing them before you asked him. Also, how did he lose them??
I’m so sorry but you totally made me laugh when you were cursing the mud! 😅 Love that you’re back! Happy trails!!
Did you miss Mountain Harbor and their incredible breakfast? I enjoyed your video… that day was one of my favorites from this years thru-hike.
Yes I did! Thank you for joining the journey!
I stopped for lunch there on my thru hike too! Same picnic table ❤
The ruts I mean trail on the roan balds was horrible!
I’m so glad to see your posts again, it’s been a few days. Glad to see you are all still doing great.
That tree absolutely looks like a LOTR ent. 😃 😋 …Scouts tasty taco made me drool. 🌮 #%@🤬#%% mud. Brilliant Blue sky. Gorgeous rolling hills. And mountains WHAT? 🤣
Bigfoot cave. 15 miles. GREAT DAY GREAT VIDEO.
