Aunt Flow and Blood Mountain 😂 what a coincidence! Wish I was there - Blood Mountain is on my bucket list. I’ve visited Neel’s Gap - there’s just something special about that place.
That sunrise coffee cup shot was wonderful and loved the campfire glimpse. Appreciate the variety of views. PS: Your singing is way better than 5 Stack's!
Going from strength to strength! These are great videos -- so glad you are drawing inspiration from the other hikers and enjoying the camping and campfires.
Hi Marissa, this old fotch is loving your videos! I dare say that you are the Badbat of 2024. Before you started, you seemed very pensive but now that you are on the trail, you are smiling so much! I hope that it's not just for the camera. I think not. It'll get tougher eventually but I trust you to give us the straight scoop. Enjoy your hike and don't miss a thing because of us followers. You go girl!
Enjoyed seeing how you handled a more challenging day. Stubborn can be good 🙂. Glad you're making more friends on the trail as you move along. I think another commenter's suggestion of the trail name Songbird is a good one. See you next time.
Hello there! This is Jon and Benjamin wishing you the best! We just remembered our time at blood mountain and thought to come here to see how you are doing. We are so happy to see you doing well! Keep up the good work! 😁
I applaud the singing entertainment you provide. Yes. The hanging shoes represent those who finished their hike, shoes that wore out and shoes that didn’t last. Cheers to your victory of the day. Thanks for the interesting commentary. Always enjoyable. Wishing you safe passage and good fortune. Happy Trails!
Rissa, you are looking good out there! Getting stronger every day. I have been looking forward to seeing you get on trail. So much prep and thought has gone into this, well done. You can do this!
Well, I don't known what your signing sounds like as I have a 70% hearing loss and need to use CC (closed caption) on youtube and tv (hearing aids only help so much). I feel you must have a cheery voice and it woud be a treat to hear, so I'm enjoying your videos and will continue to follow along.
Personally, I enjoy your singing. Never stop what motivates you. It will help you make it to Mama K. You are strong and have a great attitude. You got this. Hike on Rissa (Song Bird).
Songbird would be a good trail name for you. Your singing is a good positive motivator for you.
Lol... I was thinking Tweety Bird for trail name

I was hoping to see this 😂😂.
Love you Rissa! Good luck on the hike. You're kicking butt.

I absolutely love your singing and the personality you put into your videos!

Enjoy watching you on your journey...
"High Ho High Ho...it's North to Maine you go"...🎶
Stay safe...
Thus far, I am really enjoying seeing the various stops your filming along the way. Keep going.

Suggested trail name: Serenade
I give you the trail name of Songbird or Nightingale because you sing so much (which I love). ❤
Another great video. Well done out there today!
Since singing is a sign of happiness be sure to keep it up! Happy hiking!

Looked like a beautiful day to be out on the trail,.. jealous.

Loved the sunrise, the singing, and your positive attitude. You are doing great! 🙂
I'm so enjoying your cheerfully stubborn personality. Good job finding the positive on a tough body day.
Rissa, you are looking good out there! Getting stronger every day. I have been looking forward to seeing you get on trail. So much prep and thought has gone into this, well done. You can do this!
I thought sing sing would be a good trail name but songbird is cool too. Great job 👏
That’s so funny! My husband and I met a “Fancy Pants” from CA three years ago in GA in the first 30 miles!
I just love the fact you’re drinking coffee on the at (I know I’m weird lol). You got this, girl!!
Frankly, I enjoy your singing, and general attitude. More please.
‘I’m gonna hike all the way to Maine”. You go Rissa!
75% fail the AT but I've faith in you ❤ you got this

Enjoying your videos! How much weight are you carrying with your pack?
I'm surprised no one is calling you some type of songbird yet. I'd go with Starling because you're also a rock star for hiking the AT.
Personally, I enjoy your singing. Never stop what motivates you. It will help you make it to Mama K. You are strong and have a great attitude. You got this. Hike on Rissa (Song Bird).
Cranking out th small miles now and soon they'll be a bit more each day and in a few weeks....big miles just because. Got no doubt
Trail name smiley or songbird
You just named yourself: Not Rushing It.
I always assumed you were given a trail name and not pick one yourself
Pam or Beesly.
