    Default Who's documenting their 2013 thru hike on Youtube?

    Hello hikers!

    Wow, everyone is getting really excited about the class of 2013! Who is posting video blogs of their hikes on YouTube? We have found a few hikers already posting gear videos etc and hope to find more and following along with their adventure. And also want to repay some 'mail magic' to hikers on the trail this year I could not have done the trail without all the help in 2012. Good luck everyone and post up!


    PS - sorry if this is posted in a thread elsewhere. Loner and Wildcat

    I am going to try.. I plan on taking vid/photos. I don't know how easy it will be for me to upload on a regular basis, seeing as i'm not a person with much money, ie; wont be staying in to many furnished establishments featuring the interwebs. as well as having a half-broken camera. my chances seem slim-to-none. BUT, I do my best when the odds are against me...in any case, I will still post it all 'post-hike'. http://www.youtube.com/user/MyAnimalMask gear vid soon. -Freewheeler

    I'm starting weekend of March 23. http://www.youtube.com/user/MSUMax1
    I can only get a month off work, so sectioning from Springer to Hot Springs. You, FM, and biophthera inspired me to not only pursue the hike, but attempt a vlog. Just hope I can find places to upload in Hiawassee, Franklin, NOC, Fontana, and Hot Springs.

    Hey Loner, after watching all your videos it made me want to do it to so my friends and family can follow along, plus I think it would be a great thing to have to look back on after I'm done. I'm leaving some time in march.

    Wow - thanks to everyone who posted a reply so far. Very excited to check up on these and follow along, although it really makes us miss the trail. Good luck to everyone and hope more hikers post their links! Jeff aka Loner and Jeanine aka Wildcat.

    Hey Caboose! Heck yeah we're gonna follow you and Sassafras on your hike. We'd love to meet you all somewhere in the Southern States. We're gonna do a few section hikes this spring and summer. Really looking forward to your videos and hope to repay some 'mail magic' to hikers this year! Good luck! Loner

    I will be starting a SOBO in mid-July. Here are the links to my YouTube channel and Trail Journal. As a long-time backpacker who has dealt with chronic Lyme disease (mis-diagnosed for a number of months, and treated for about a year and still have continuing chronic symptoms), I will be trying to raise awareness of this fast spreading epidemic and sharing accurate facts about prevention and early detection and diagnosis. Loner, your vblog was a huge inspiration for this idea. My first entry in my Trail Journal has a link to your YouTube channel by way of explanation of the power of social media to share the fun and adventure of a Thru-hike, but also to share important info to protect public health. Thanks!

    Very cool...I'll reach Baxter on the 12th and start the next day. A fraternity brother of mine from UK (a looong time ago) is driving me up from his home in VT. Send me a PM and I'll send you my cell number.
