We owe YOU a “thank you” Liz! You videos are always entertaining and allows us to follow You along as You enjoy life and accomplishing whatever goals You set for Yourself. Thank You for allowing us that privilege.
To be honest Liz you are one of my most favorite TH-camrs. I love your content and your driven nature. I have rewatched your AT hike a million times!! Your hiking videos inspire me to begin my backpacking journey. You’re a rockstar and I look up to you!!
Lots of great well-deserved comments on this video. That was one busy week you had - I have no idea how you had the energy for that hike!
says the guy who hiked 30 miles through the middle of the night in the presidentials😂
You always inspire me, Liz. Whenever I stumble across a new posting from you, I watch it and say to myself "She makes me want to be a better person." Just keep on being "authentic" and the universe will bring you joy! Peace out.
I love your “random, inconsistent” videos. You have a great on screen personality that is fun to watch.
Hey Liz, I have been watching your videos since the begining of your AT through hike. I can honestly say that you're one of the only people I have followed this long. ( and Evan, of course) I love what you post, your message, your attitude, and just your general way of seeing things. I appreciate the shit out of you and I'm so happy I'll get to follow you along on your next adventure.
I hope Luke is well and I was really rooting for that mullet to achieve its full glory! Be safe, and don't sweat the petty stuff.
A BIG THANK YOU right back at you! Keep making videos for fun and we will keep watching and enjoying them. Everyone in my family knows you. You are awesome exactly the way you are.
Your "random/chaotic/fun week" is mostly well-organized hard work with some good times hanging with friends thrown into the mix. I think we knew before you did that you were going to meet up with the gals even though it was considerably out of the way. When you listed the "choices" about, "Do I hike extra and meet up with them or, no?" you ended with "It is the point of this hike..." You're certainly not afraid of hard work! I follow these videos to see the organization as much as anything. While hiking, most of us lose things, or forget things, or get lost, etc., you organize so well that you make it look easier than it is. *You must have been organizing things your whole life - thank you for all the work.
NEVER SAY NEVER YOU JUST MAYBE CLOSER TO WHAT YOU WANT THEN YOU THINK love your channel it was hard to find you but I made sure I kept you in my favorite Many Blessing
I love Michael’s message! Edgar Cayce said sound will be the medicine of the future 💛
That's a lot of living in a short time! I saw that burn happening during your hike. The sun is extra strong at that altitude! Thanks for sharing your busy and wonderful life with us! Take care of that hair. It's awesome!
Love your random videos! I see TH-cam as a way to collected and save our home videos. Not many VHS tapes laying around anymore so this is a place where no matter what I can look back at the memories and moments that I’ve had throughout the years. That’s what life’s about right. Having fun and making memories. :)
Yes, absolutely!
I love your style of videos! And your friendship with Evan is just so precious!
❤️❤️❤️
Liz...always a great video! We always look forward to your videos...thanks for sharing your life journey with all of us! Can't wait for your next video...THANK YOU
Hello Liz! I love your videos. I never followed anybody on TH-cam or any social media before. This thing about making videos on a regular basis, is king of binding and takes the fun out of it. For TH-cam, it's good business and that it why they programed the algorithm that way. I like your relaxed approach, it suites me. It also motivates me to get out there and do things I like. Don't pressure yourself to change, do what feels right for you. More people should do so. Thank you for sharing these moments of your life with us. 😊✌
Super video! What a week! Amazing that you can just add in Mt. Washington on a whim! Evan looks so weird to me without glasses. Younger, to be sure. Less like a professor.
I love your videos.
I will be staying subscribed - random and inconsistent = real. And I like that. And looking forward to seeing g the Liz and Evan duo on the Colorado trail next year.
Loooove Michael Franti and his concerts. Figures you two know one another.
Always love your videos, so surprised that you did Michael Franti's hair, I have loved his music forever!!! And Evan, so good to see him in your video again and that you are planning another hike next year!!!!
Always love to see your smile hikin' up a mountain! Thank you.
I love your videos! You have the best personality. It really shows that it is genuine content and not forced.
Ooooh! That's the famous client! Eeee! I love him...that's my genre of music! Mike Love, Trevor Hall....how awesome!
Same!!
Woo hoo! So excited for you and Evan, and love all your videos!
Thanks for sharing I love your videos! Looks like you love my home state too Tennessee! Keep on hiking a sharing! You do some epic hikes! Thanks again.
Hi Liz, so awesome to see you hanging with Michael Franti. One of the most inspirational people I know, and one of the best concerts I have ever been to, and I have been to a lot. It was not really a concert, it was an experience of joy and hope. Love your content. As another person in recovery, your message is important. You give folks, who are struggling with what to do without Alcohol and other drugs, great alternatives.
Yes!!! His concert really was a whole happy vibe/culture!!!
I like the fact that your vid posts are yours. The day in a life stuff. It lets folks know you are you and that is what it is. I say great. Thanks for showing us a slice of your life. Have Fun & Hike Safe.
Thank you, appreciate that!!
When I saw you traveling to Nashville gear lined up on the bed we roared with laughter. Truly glad life is working out for such an intelligent, jubilant person. You bring great joy to many lives. Thanks for sticking with hiking. 🧗The Presidential Range, just stretching your legs?🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸🤸
The spaghetti squash was awesome. How much work you've done on your home and yard. Kudis
Yup. I watch every one of your videos as well as Evans. you live an interesting life and take nice footage of the trail. Thank you for the effort!
Thanks for being here!!
I'll be thru hiking the CT next July as well! Hope to get to see you both out there.
Glad you still got to get some hiking in even though you had to skip the backpacking trip.
Hell yeah see you there!
Thank you for your videos. I really enjoy your content and your perspective. Have a great week!
omg your celeb client is MICHAEL FRIGGIN FRANTI!!!???Hell to the yes
I've been following you since the AT and could sense the shift and you're so much more relaxed in your videos now!
Same
Thanks, I appreciate that! Definitely less camera shy now😅
What a fun video! It's great to see ya'll again in the same video.
I’ve accepted the fact that we’re all perfectly imperfect people. I totally agree with Michael. Optimism is awesome. Pair it with positivity & that a powerful thing indeed. I’m always smiling at people trying to get them to smile back. Very cool seeing Evan! I like it when you just put up a video when you want. It’s more free spirited. Hugs and love to you, Luke, & Miss Piggy! I’m always saying “I’ll see ya when I see ya”. Cool beans😉❤️
Thanks Val!!! You absolutely seem like a positive person just from our interactions on social! Appreciate you!
@@LizKidder You’re very welcome! Positive to the extreme I am😂! A gift indeed!❤️❤️❤️
I followed you guys on the AT and am so glad I watched this video today. My husband and a friend will also be hiking the Colorado trail next July. What a small world!
Thank you Liz I love watching your videos! Especially love when you post working on clients dreads😉
Love watching your videos while getting ready for the day! Very inspiring!
Nice trip, reunion, concert, hike, video.
Stoked to hear about the CT hike next year.
Oh yeah, nice booger picking scene by Luke. 😂
🙄
Thank you Liz! I always enjoy your videos. 66 year old, recently retired and thoroughly enjoy watching them! PS love your hair too. If I was 25 years younger I would totally rock that look. Might have to settle for a few pink locks if I can find someplace where I live that does them❤️
Hey I’ve got lots of clients in their 60’s! You’re at the “fuck it, do what you want” stage in life!!!
@@LizKidder is there a good place to order some locks that would be easy to install? I may be in that stage of life but we recently moved to the country in VA. Not quite as progressive as NH. My husband is from NH. I’m a Jersey girl originally. Not that you could tell from my speech😀
I'm still here watchin! :) I just never comment :) You need to bring back the ole 'intro song'.....I literally play that song alllll the time still in my playlists! It rocks! :) You rock! Luke rocks! your dog rocks! and Evan rocks! :)
Nice video and great message 👍. Always like your videos. CT sweet - bet ya can’t wait🤘
Aww...thank you back Liz. Love your videos!!
Same
Gooood morning from central Florida! Hope everyone has a great day! Great to see you on trail!
Same
Make what you want when you want. If it makes you happy, your fans will be happy with the product. We're here to see you enjoying life with Luke, Miss Piggy, and surprise visits with/from Evan. Thank you for sharing your adventures :)
Same
❤️❤️❤️
Never a dull moment!
Loved your video. Loved you shared a recipe and cooked it on the video!
You and Evan made a lot of friends on your thru hike. Most of us you will never meet. But we know you and we think your videos are fantastic!!! And there’s something about never. Never say never!
☺️☺️🙏🏻🙏🏻
Hello Liz, you & Luke are the best! Lovin your videos whenever you send them! Thanks so much for all that you do & taking us along. Take care & enjoy life! Best Wishes Always......Bob V
Omg whT do u mean,I love love love your videos,u r my most favorite utuber,I always get so excited when u post a new video,ty for sharing your life with us.💜✌🥰
I randomly found you by watching Evan, who I randomly found months ago on TH-cam!! Please don’t stop making these vids. Especially when you go hiking. Gives those who can’t make the hikes a feel of them and how it is out there! Xx
I love it, Liz. I haven't made a YT video in quite awhile b/c my channel has been about hiking the A.T., but since that's over, I've been considering just making videos about whatever I wanted and let the chips fall where they will. I love the creative outlet of making videos. I've scheduled myself to get up to Virginia in Oct to hike the VA Triple Crown and maybe visit Grayson Highlands so that should be some decent content, hopefully. That trail in your video was AMAZING! SO cool that you and Evan are hiking the CT! So the million dollar question: Has hiking with Evan made you want to consider ditching the tent and using a tarp?
Isn't Lake of the Clouds Hut where Evan caught up with you and Luke when you hiked the A.T. He had been sick and you had to separate and he put in a monster hike to catch back up with you. Loved that video! I hope one day your children get to watch your videos and get inspired to climb their own mountains!
Yes that’s the place! It felt good to be back, such a good memory!!
Love you Liz!!! You’re the best!
Same
Good plan….random and inconsistent is perfect! You are unpretentious and spontaneous and that’s what I love about your channel. Do what you can…when you want. Catch ya on the next one! Stay well! 🥰
Thanks, I really appreciate that!
so so AWESOME!!!!
I love your videos so much! I stumbled on you by accident when my fiance was watching Evans AT video and I was like, who is this awesome handstand girl! And I've been following ever since. I wish I lived closer so I could make an appointment to get my hair did though lmao.
Thanks for being here! Maybe someday our paths will cross!
Hey Liz, good to hear from you again! Very cool hanging with the band and Evan! Have a great week!!
Hey Liz, Jenna in the UK here. You were my inspiration for getting dreads again after 32 years!! I've just started my own little dreadlock channel & totally aspire to be half as 'famous' as you!! If you ever come to the UK look me up!! I'm up a mountain but nothing like the AT 🤣 You are pretty famous here! 😊
Aw love this!!!
Love your videos! The food look delicious.
Good stuff 👍🏻
I prefer random videos. Keep being you
Love your videos. Can’t wait to watch your hike with Evan. I grew some spaghetti squash in my garden this year so I’ll have to try that recipe!
I just love you girl !!
First comment EVER on a TH-cam video to say I LOVE your videos!
I love ALL your videos!! You are an amazing person! Thanks for the videos. I always find them inspiring.
Same
I will be following your hike next year!
Same
Woohoooo!🎉
Love your videos!!!
Loooooooove all of this
Thanks Sarah!☺️☺️☺️
Lake of the Clouds Hut! That’s when/where on the AT Evan hauled major ass and caught up to you & tapped you on the shoulder!!!
YES! It was my first time back to the hut since then and I still got emotional thinking about it!☺️
❤️
Nice video. Success is making yourself content. Good Luck, Rick
I love your videos, you're a rock star to me :-)
The sunburn is because of all that wind, fooled you into thinking it was cooler.
I love watching your videos - I'm inconsistent too, but I do it for fun and never look at analytics (but I have less than a thousand followers so meh!)
Yes windy and cloudy! Woops!
😊💖🐶🐶
No . Thank u for doing what u do . 👊✌👍🏻
I’m glad you are random and inconsistent! Makes you, you…
Same
That is one serious messy bun…😂😂😂
Looks like a fun time!! What model is the Hyperlite day pack that you use? I’m assuming it’s a smaller one than from the AT?
I think it’s called the daybreak and pretty sure it’s their only day pack! I love it and use it allll the time, on trail and off!
@@LizKidder how is it holding up in heavy rain? Thank you 🙏🏻💜
I’m practicing to be an Uber driver 😂
I love your videos. I wish that someday I can have you maintain my dreads. Unfortunately I live in MT! I have dreads down to my ass and loads of tats. I love them and you and your videos. Thank you for making them they are much appreciated.
I’d love to go to MT someday!
Oh u would find amazing hikes out here. If you ever did u always have a place to stay. U could stay inside or U could stay in my Xeena! My old but goody rv. My small town Livingston, I think there are only about 4 people with dreads!
How'd you and evan become friends?
We met on the Appalachian Trail and ended up hiking the majority of the trail together!
