I am so very happy that you got to do the Virginia Triple Crown, dragon, tooth, McAfee knob, and tinker cliff; mcAfee knob is often reported by those that have finished the entire Appalachian Trail as one of three of the best views on the entire trail with many saying that doing the Virginia trip count is probably the most recommended if you ever had to hike any part of the Appalachian Trail is to do that to get a sense of the trail and I think everything you all talked about the ups and downs the views and how you approached it pretty much supports that too. You have to be so proud of what you’ve accomplished you make it look simple and yet we know it’s not you’ve attacked it with such wonderful zeal and openness. You see the little things of nature the story about the little bear the fear to get the heck out of there all those things, but yet you’ll stop and look at a little flower or a rock formation or a group of ants carrying off their prey, you have made so many of my nights and mornings and enjoyable just to view and share with me everything that you have done. I can only thank you from the bottom of my heart so much and if I can this year, even though I turned 72 this past June 6, and I’m battling with some pain in my neck. I am going to try to do the triple Crown. I am so gonna miss your videos. I know the decision you made is the right decision for you, but I am so gonna miss seeing your faces here in your voices and just the exuberance of how to enjoy and live life and such a loving and caringmanner. Love and lots of hugs.❤😊
At 2:13 -- Go Birds! What lovely and kind people to host you guys. They are typical of the hiking community, I think, but that doesn't make them any less special. Edit: Looking forward to the next day's video to see if that whippoorwill let you get any sleep, lol.
You were blessed with beautiful weather for the remainder of the triple crown. 😊 The photos of you 2 on McAfee Knob were so lovely. I would have hustled ahead of the cub too. You definitely did the right thing. I remember encountering a mama moose here in Maine and oh boy. 😮 I put as many trees between her and I as I could and made my exit. Once again, solid day of hiking ladies. 💪 Rest well MB, LB, and EB. 🌲🏕🌲
We truly enjoyed your company and absolutely loved spending time with you both. River sends hugs and tail wags! Your Mcafee day looked AMAZING!!! Cherish those beautiful pics of Mcafee❤. Jake and River and I saw what we believe was a Momma bear the same distance from the main road last week. Maybe your baby cub's momma! Her behavior suggested she had a cub nearby.
Good night glad your bear experience was not as serious as it could have been. Love the videos. So happy you guys are headed to the Shenandoah section. I did it in September and it was great. Lots of views and great to hit the waysides as well.
First time I have written, although I enjoy following your progress most every day. Thank you for such interesting comments on your journey and your honest highs and lows. Especially loved the closeup of the ants moving the bee. And your account of how you felt as you hurried away from the cub…. wow! I realized that it made me anxious right along with you. As a retired university educator, I keep thinking about the amazing knowledge base that LB will take with her as she eventually moves through high school and college. Best wishes and prayers!
I love your video sharing the birdsongs of my favorite birds. The wood thrush and the whippoorwill. Hopefully you will have a restful sleep with the lullaby in the calling.
Loved watching the ants, living their best life!!! What a nice reminder that as we go about our lives, there are so many other creatures going about theirs that we aren't even aware of! What a wonderful world!
Lovely photos of the two of you on top of McAfee Knob! How neat to take the time to film ‘the teamwork of the ants making the dream work’! What a beautiful area! Go big or go home! I love the whippoorwill calling in the background at your wrap up! Great video! You guys are rocking it!!!!!!!
I wish at the end of your day you would have let us just listen to that whippoorwill. They are on the endangered list now. What a treat to get to hear one.❤❤❤❤
When I hiked the AT in 2021, I was coming into Daleville and heard a rustling in the bushes to my right. I stopped and the rustling stopped. I started walking and the rustling began again. Then a tiny bear the size of a housecat came waddling across the trail. I booked it so fast. Never saw mom. I was so freaked out and didn't stop "moving with a purpose" for a full mile. It's wild that the same thing happened to you in the same stretch!! Those baby bears must be real curious!!
Those pictures are amazing!!! I’m so glad you didn’t see the mama bear! I would have been terrified too🥹 you have really been blessed with awesome weather for the triple crown! Those views are so amazing 😍😍 I loved hearing the Whippoorwill 🥰🥰 Enjoy your zero💕💕💕💕
Good morning .. great day with memorable experiences.... "Hey Little Bear , Meet Baby Bear" .... ... If humans could work together like that group of ants ,, miracles could be accomplished.... Stay Safe and God Bless...
Not sure if they are considered endangered yet or just in decline, but that was a whippoorwill chirping away at your campsite. Don't hear them very often down here anymore.
What a GREAT day!! Little bear met baby bear. Plus 2 iconic spots on the AT. You 2 are true thru hikers now taking those elevations in stride . Love the whipperwill at the end. Too funny, Ellie hiding in the background on your closeout. I had to go back & watch it again. Yep she is there!! Thanks again for sharing your journey. Happy Hiking!!😊
Sounds like it was a great day! Tinker Cliffs and McAfee Knob looked beautiful! Glad you had nice weather to enjoy the views! Oh my gosh, your baby cub experience seemed like a similar situation my husband and I had a few years ago on a day hike! I can see how it can be a character builder and a highlight at the same time!
Such awesome hosts. The memories the two of you will have forever of McAfee and those photos priceless. Great views and miles.Thank you for sharing your hike.🌲👏
Oh my goodness the photo on the ledge is amazing! More fabulous views. Momma bear, little bear and now baby bear. What a treat, glad u didn't get to see momma. Safe travels 💗
I've seen and learned things about the AT I have never known. It truly is incredible! And I appreciate both of you sooo much 😊 Super job!! Lovely place to be
Beautiful hike and so many interactions with Nature! 16.4 miles! Wow! The vistas were amazing! The ending of your video, that beautiful bird singing repeatedly was glorious. Elle hiding in the corner but Little Bear says, Elle make your presence known! 🤣. Forever onward, Bears!🧸🐻🦌🐜🐜🌻🌼🌺🌅🥾⛰️👍
What an exciting day...McAfee Knob and Tinker Cliffs...not to forget the little cub!! That Whippoorwill would drive me crazy at night. Happy Trails...Winkle
What a day is right! You got the day every AT hiker dreams about for this section. I like LB saying she's not afraid of heights. She's just afraid of falling of the mountain. Exactly my thoughts too!
Hey you two, keep an eye out for Kristian Morgan ( Captain) today June 6th. He is northbound attempting a record AT through. He is averaging 55 miles per day. Wish him on!!!
What a beautiful day you two had today and being able to hike in beautiful weather and get the triple crown done all in one day that's really awesome. Wishing you two a blessed beautiful day tomorrow hiking in to Dalesvile and getting some rest and relaxing. 😊😊😊
Another awesome video! A tramily... Mamma Bear, Little Bear, and Baby Bear😂. It's very rare to see a cub on trail. Mom might have been up in a tree. I saw a mom and two cubs running away from us hikers several years ago near Old Orchard Shelter. Those ants are amazing. Imagine 20 people carrying a bus. People could learn a lot from ants. Congratulations on the triple crown. Beautiful videos and stills. May God continue to keep and bless you both!
Thought of Little Bear this morning when I was fueling my lawn mower and there was a snail on my gas can. She would have spotted it right away!! 😂 Hike On and be safe!!
I can clearly remember spending a sleepless night in the woods waiting patiently for the whippoorwill to hush. It seemed like it would never happened. I hope you both got some good rest.
What a wonderful day you ha 35:19 d. A visit with friends, beautiful weather, amazing views & a brief although scary visit with a wild bear cub! I’m sure that would have been the highlight & character builder of my day had I been in your shoes!😄 Glad you both used your heads & got a move on up that trail! I’m pretty sure certain that its mother wouldn’t have been pleased about its interest in humans! Happy Hiking!
I wonder if the cub was orphaned. Are you able to contact the wildlife department/park ranger in the area to inform them there is a potential orphaned cub? Love your videos! Congratulations on your journey!
So awesome you met Sassafras and Teacup we hiked with them last year . I called them Bear chaser , because they chased a bear away from our our food bags. I always enjoy your videos.
Hey, Bears. Glad you had fun with your new friends. LB was totally involved with River. So cute. Congrats on completing the VA Triple Crown. The bear cub episode would have been such a rush. And it was, in more than 1 way. Loved the musical accompaniment to the video, I'm not talking about the guitar. Hope that it didn't keep you up too late or start in again at 3 am. Take care. Stay safe. See you tomorrow.
episode 79 - please warn Little Bear against leaning on her hiking poles with them pointed at her chest. (There was a point where she was demonstrating how hard the ground was). I have seen them break, and in that position, a person can get a nasty injury - and that's if you're lucky. I have seen someone nearly taken off the trail by that kind of accident.
27:03 I hear a whippoorwill.... Whippoorwills have a deep spiritual connection with nature, especially the lunar cycles. They are most active during the night, symbolizing the mystery and intuition associated with the moon. As nocturnal birds, whippoorwills can remind you of the importance of tuning into your inner instincts and trusting your own intuition even when faced with uncertainty. By embracing the natural cycles and rhythms in your life, you can find balance and harmony within yourself.
Damn those whippoorwills! Haha. Great vid and character builder cup is already overflowing. Remember your hiking from Georgia to Maine and it will take a couple to a few years for that to sink into your brains, but it is something that will last for the rest of your life. Just an FYI. Little bear is always just peace out and Drop the Mic every day. She has totally got this whole thing!
MB: One day, would you mind detailing how you trained and prepared for this trek? You guys are doing so very well, and have such a strong mental fortitude. Would love to learn from your experience. TYIA LB: Are still playing Subway Surfers? What’s your high score? I started playing it, since you said it was fun. My high score is 19,473. 😊
40 seconds after post woah...lol. Aww, the cub was just following its fellow bears ❤. That view afterwards was amazing. LB that's an understandable fear to have. Y'all are doing amazing. Such a beautiful and well maintained section of the trail. Breath-taking view. I need to share this with my brother so he can identify those plants you always come across. Virginia triple crown in the books. Congrats 🎉. Good move with the bear. Momma must've been close. Make noise, and get out of their. 😂
Wouldn't trail magic be something along the lines of finding what you need on trail unplanned etc? especially considering this is been in the planning process for months? I'm not trying to be negative or a hater it just seems like so many now a days are trying to created a pseudo experience so they can check the proverbial boxes of being a thru hiker? any thoughts on this are very welcome. Another interesting point is "day xyz" do you count your zero days? because if you don't it would be more like day 65?
Without rewatching this video, I’m unsure of what you’re referring to. Please explain further if you’d like me to elaborate. And yes, we count total days, to include zero days.
Volunteer maintenance clubs maintain certain sections of the trail, generally in the area in which they live. They have a genuine love for the trail and enjoy their work. They are very special people, and we owe them a great debt of gratitude.
Love following along and watching each morning 😉 sent you a PM on Instagram. Would love to try to get trail magic to you when you hit the CT/NY area 👍🏼
🚶♀️🐻👟👟🚶♂️🐻🐈👟👟⛺🌞 that was very nice of Jack and Jen and River so awesome glad you got to see the little cub and not the mama I would have kept moving on to McAfee knob is just beautiful and that was very good picture of you two bears love and light to you both stay safe and happy hiking and goodnight Ellie 🐈😺

McAfee Knob is my 2nd favorite area on the trail. Love your Hike!
There’s nothing like a little fear to put some pep in your step. On the other hand, such a rare and cool sight to see a cub bear that small. ❤
At 2:13 -- Go Birds! What lovely and kind people to host you guys. They are typical of the hiking community, I think, but that doesn't make them any less special. Edit: Looking forward to the next day's video to see if that whippoorwill let you get any sleep, lol.
What a perfect beautiful day for hiking and seeing McAfee knob. Your videos are so nice and clear, it is like being there
Thank you! 🙏🏼
You were blessed with beautiful weather for the remainder of the triple crown. 😊 The photos of you 2 on McAfee Knob were so lovely. I would have hustled ahead of the cub too.

Good night glad your bear experience was not as serious as it could have been. Love the videos. So happy you guys are headed to the Shenandoah section. I did it in September and it was great. Lots of views and great to hit the waysides as well.

That cub was just trying to meet its extended family by crawling towards you😊
Loved watching the ants, living their best life!!! What a nice reminder that as we go about our lives, there are so many other creatures going about theirs that we aren't even aware of! What a wonderful world!
Amazing, right?! The world is full of wonder! 😊
Those pictures at McAfee Knob are frame worthy!! Congratulations Bears on completing Virginia's Triple Crown (starting from Georgia!!!)!! ❤❤❤❤
When I looked at you two sitting on McKafee, I almost cried because I know how special a moment like that can be. God bless, happy hiking.
Music slaps, food smacks. Both are good, so not sure what the negative would be for the food lol.
Glad Little Bear got to see a little bear! Great pics of y’all at McAfee Knob.😊❤
What a great day with beautiful weather/views!
Lovely photos of the two of you on top of McAfee Knob! How neat to take the time to film ‘the teamwork of the ants making the dream work’! What a beautiful area! Go big or go home! I love the whippoorwill calling in the background at your wrap up! Great video! You guys are rocking it!!!!!!!
Getting into tent with the sound of a whipper will song how cool.
I wish at the end of your day you would have let us just listen to that whippoorwill. They are on the endangered list now. What a treat to get to hear one.❤❤❤❤
Well done! What a beautiful part of the trail! By the way...I really like the little guitar parts in your videos ❤❤
I’m sitting here listening to your character builders and thinking ‘that whippoorwill may be one of them’. They are loud and persistent 🤣
14:16 wow what an incredible view
So lucky for perfect weather on the knob
It’s amazing how comfortable you both are vlogging
Blessed!! Indeed! 🙏🏼💙
Love your videos it is an awesome looking area that you’re going through. You’re doing a good job. God bless and be safe.

Wow, that’s so interesting! Never a dull moment out there! 😂
Love your energy after you both have had a shower and a goodnights sleep! 😂. Your genuine kindness and positivity shines bright.
Little bear…meet little bear!
What a perfect day for McAfee Knob and Tinker Cliffs. 😊 I hope that bird quieted before you went to sleep. 🎶🐦
What a beautiful day! I loved the photos today. Jam packed for sure. Psalm 3:3 Shield, glory, lifter. Provider! 🙌🙏💪🥾
Those pictures are amazing!!! I’m so glad you didn’t see the mama bear! I would have been terrified too🥹 you have really been blessed with awesome weather for the triple crown! Those views are so amazing 😍😍 I loved hearing the Whippoorwill 🥰🥰 Enjoy your zero💕💕💕💕

That would be awesome to see him! What a phenomenal athlete he is. I followed him a bit last year. Wishing him the very best!
By July it will be warm enough to get in the creek for refreshment
What a beautiful day you two had today and being able to hike in beautiful weather and get the triple crown done all in one day that's really awesome. Wishing you two a blessed beautiful day tomorrow hiking in to Dalesvile and getting some rest and relaxing. 😊😊😊

Great pics on the knob
Love the Whip--r-will in the background at the end!! And WOW! Amazing miles today, and amazing in so many ways too!!!
Your perseverance through all things is simply amazing!
It must be so nice to meet so many amazing people and find long time friends for down the road. Love the community of AT
Thought of Little Bear this morning when I was fueling my lawn mower and there was a snail on my gas can. She would have spotted it right away!!
😂
Hike On and be safe!!
Me hearing that bird when you were in your tent and knowing your gonna hear it all night! Fingers crossed it Flys away lol good luck bears!
Day 1 - 4900’ = Character builder
Day 74- 4900’ = Highlight
We’re in beast mode now
Definitely! 😊
I can clearly remember spending a sleepless night in the woods waiting patiently for the whippoorwill to hush. It seemed like it would never happened. I hope you both got some good rest.
Beautiful photo shoot on McAfee Knob!! 👏🏼
What a great day you two had! Keep up the great work! ❤and🔦
What a wonderful day you ha 35:19 d. A visit with friends, beautiful weather, amazing views & a brief although scary visit with a wild bear cub!

I’m pretty sure certain that its mother wouldn’t have been pleased about its interest in humans! Happy Hiking!
Beautiful section of the trail and y'all had great weather for all the views. Exciting seeing the baby bear. Hope the bird doesn't keep you awake, lol
I wonder if the cub was orphaned. Are you able to contact the wildlife department/park ranger in the area to inform them there is a potential orphaned cub?
Love your videos! Congratulations on your journey!
So awesome you met Sassafras and Teacup we hiked with them last year . I called them Bear chaser , because they chased a bear away from our our food bags. I always enjoy your videos.
If you think about it, the Daisy had its arms opened wide welcoming to the trail with a great big smile!
Wow! What a day! You guys are doing great!
Highlight: The still photo of you two on M Knob. Stunning.
Wow! Full day of adventure!
🦋❤️
I wonder if the cub lost its mother and needed help. I hope not. I wouldn’t stay around to find out.
Bringing home dinner!! Great shot!
Perfect weather for great views from up on McAfee & Tinker! Didn't even look as crowed as usual.
Hey, Bears. Glad you had fun with your new friends. LB was totally involved with River. So cute. Congrats on completing the VA Triple Crown. The bear cub episode would have been such a rush. And it was, in more than 1 way. Loved the musical accompaniment to the video, I'm not talking about the guitar. Hope that it didn't keep you up too late or start in again at 3 am. Take care.

Amazing views. You both are getting very strong. Lots of rock climbing
Fantastic mountsin views! 😊 ❤
Yep - Would not have found Ellie. 😂
episode 79 - please warn Little Bear against leaning on her hiking poles with them pointed at her chest. (There was a point where she was demonstrating how hard the ground was). I have seen them break, and in that position, a person can get a nasty injury - and that's if you're lucky. I have seen someone nearly taken off the trail by that kind of accident.
Little bears reference to SpongeBob definitely made me laugh

So beautiful. Thank you for sharing! 🙏🏼💙
Tinker Cliffs are maybe 5 air miles from were I live, on the other side of the mountain of course. Enjoy you visit to the area. Old Timer
"ANOTHER LITTLE BEAR" NICE. BUT TIME TO GO.
THE VIEWS ARE AMAZING. PEOPLE ON TRAIL. DEER.😊
Welcome to “my” mountains. McAfee and Tinker Cliffs are short day hikes for me.
Damn those whippoorwills! Haha. Great vid and character builder cup is already overflowing. Remember your hiking from Georgia to Maine and it will take a couple to a few years for that to sink into your brains, but it is something that will last for the rest of your life. Just an FYI. Little bear is always just peace out and Drop the Mic every day. She has totally got this whole thing!
MB: One day, would you mind detailing how you trained and prepared for this trek? You guys are doing so very well, and have such a strong mental fortitude. Would love to learn from your experience. TYIA
LB: Are still playing Subway Surfers? What’s your high score? I started playing it, since you said it was fun. My high score is 19,473. 😊
I hope you guys meet Derek cullins seems so sweet I watch him too .
Little Bear should play piano. She has such long fingers.
Youre so close to 10k subs!!!!! You gals should do a youtube live!!!!!!
40 seconds after post woah...lol. Aww, the cub was just following its fellow bears ❤. That view afterwards was amazing. LB that's an understandable fear to have. Y'all are doing amazing. Such a beautiful and well maintained section of the trail. Breath-taking view. I need to share this with my brother so he can identify those plants you always come across. Virginia triple crown in the books. Congrats 🎉. Good move with the bear. Momma must've been close. Make noise, and get out of their. 😂
Me too LB... Tinker Cliffs is better!!!
mama bear have you registered you baxter state park stay for katahdin?
Don’t know why but I enjoyed the video better when you girls camp outside … stay safe .
I am going to be in pa in August and am planning to hike 100 miles of the at then
Awesome!! Happy trails!
@@wildflowersadventures I am planning a through hike for 2025
Day hikers and section hikers are stronger than you think. 😂. What a great day. Happy trail.🤟🏻🥾🏔
😊

And yes, we count total days, to include zero days.
@@wildflowersadventures the people who's home you went to said tail magic when it was pre arranged weeks in advance.
@@wildflowersadventures As you should. Those days are a part of your amazingly wonderful journey!
Someone fell from McAfee Knob a few weeks ago.
Does each state maintain their section of trail?
Volunteer maintenance clubs maintain certain sections of the trail, generally in the area in which they live. They have a genuine love for the trail and enjoy their work. They are very special people, and we owe them a great debt of gratitude.
Wow! I can’t believe it’s all volunteer. Amazing!
👍👍❤️❤️🐈🐈🐻🐌🐈⬛
Love following along and watching each morning 😉 sent you a PM on Instagram. Would love to try to get trail magic to you when you hit the CT/NY area 👍🏼
