Well done Chap! Your videography is outstanding and my wife and I (71 & 72) appreciate you fully sharing the experience with all of us. Thank you! Keep on keepin' on!
CONGRATULATIONS!! What a huge and amazing accomplishment! Be so very very proud! I wanted to reach out and hug you when you got emotional. So very understandable. I can’t thank you enough for always showing the beautiful and incredible views! Your joy and excitement of the awesome views was infectious and I loved each and every view! I’ve watched your channel and 2 other channels of 2024 Nobo PCT hikers. You always sharing the views far out weighed the other 2 channels I watched. I too get so excited in the wilderness being in awe of the views! Thank you so very much for bringing so many of us along for your hike!!❤
Congratulations. I have a lump in my throat watching you touch that monument. Thank you for sharing some of the best videos of the trail, you certainly are brilliant at capturing that amazing scenery. PS I hope you finish up with a picture of you reunited with your dog!
Like you said in yesterday's video, you were one day away from not being a PCT Thru-Hiker...and Today Was The Day to make that true!!! Congratulations!!! ...and, truly. THANK YOU - through all the weather and brutal climbs and fire re-routes - for giving us the honor of coming along with you.. Yup, You Frickin' DID IT!!
Congratulations sir! Not only did you trek over 2650 miles, you vlogged it beautifully! Thank you thank you for sharing. I have enjoyed it immensely. ☮️
Big congratulations Double Crowner!!! Amazing accomplishment! Thank you for bringing us along on your journey. I've really enjoyed watching every morning and I appreciate how much work you put into documenting the whole trail ❤
👏👑👑Was a lot of fun watching ya thanks for all the amazing views!! I went to Etna,CA with my family saw all the PCT hikers there. So looked on RU-vid to find someone to watch then I found you. 😁
What a journey. I remember all the hiking companions - Roadrunner, Fireball, Hammer. But I guess in the end you wanted to finish on your own. Congrats.
Omg. So proud of you…. I’m a total stranger, lol but I watched everyday! I loved your ability to be vulnerable and share your feelings, especially today. What an awesome amazing accomplishment. I was crying the whole last episode! I really hope you show us your reunion with your dog! Congratulations!
Look at you! Congratulations! I have so enjoyed your adventure. You are such a lovely soul and you have created a beautiful legacy with you videos. Thank you for all of your hard work. Nothing like the love of a good dog♥️ enjoy!
Amazing adventure!! Amazing accomplishment! I have thoroughly enjoyed tagging along on your hike the past several months. The views were stunning and listening to your insights has been wonderful. Congratulations on such a huge and amazing experience!!
Congratulations PCT Through Hiker! Wish I was young enough to attempt part of the CDT with you. Best of luck transitioning... I remember quite clearly the feelings just after 12 days of being on a trail in the Cimarron mountains. I can only imagine how amplify that is after 170 plus days.
Congratulations Lil Chap! 🎉It’s such an incredible accomplishment! I have really enjoyed watching each day. Thank you for sharing your journey with us!
Congrats, thanks for all the work taking us along. The trail teaches us to trust the journey, be in the moment, that the best laid plans are an option when the moment gives us a gift like an available tent site and tramily. Godspeed
Thanks for sharing your journey. And I appreciated that you stopped so often and allowed us to see the views from the trail. Go rest and we look forward to you on the CDT.
So happy for you! Thank you for sharing your journey - the honest emotions you experienced and so candidly expressed, the beauty of the trail, as well as the challenges - congratulations! I thoroughly enjoyed waking up each morning to your videos. All the best to you.
Congrats Steve! Thanks so much for sharing your journey with us! Made me cry when you got to the terminus 😢. Hope you are enjoying some much needed rest and snuggles with your fur baby! Take care of yourself.
9:19 YOU DID ITTTTTT!!!!!! Aw chappy, this trail challenged you to GROW. This is good, but damn _no one_ ever knows how to prepare for that part. It’s not just the fact that you introspect all day and get into your own head, but all the friends you make and lose along the way are deeply impactful for life… and you may never see them again. That’s a lot to process. I’m glad you’re done and I bet you are sitting with your pup right now. But I’m so proud of you friend-stranger! Watching you hike the whole trail was a privilege. Thank you for sharing your epic journey with us, and congratulation on officially being a PCT thru hiker!!!! (I’m so glad I found you, and I hope you’ll take us on more adventures soon!)
So proud of you! I felt so much emotion watching you finish. It’s crazy feeling like I got to be apart of this journey of yours since April. It’s interesting looking back and thinking about how much you got to experience, grow and change on the trail, and look at how my life has also changed in that time frame too. I’m thankful to have been able to watch your videos everyday! Definitely helped motivate and inspire me. I hope post trail life is treating you well and you’re not taking it too hard. Cheers to a new season! ❤
Congratulations Chap!! What an awesome achievement. And the weather and views - amazing! Now what the heck are going to watch? 😂 Thank you for taking us along ❤
Going to miss morning video as I drink my coffee. Started watching you and roadrunner from the beginning so proud y’all both completed trail. As the say trail provides and hike your own hike. Great job
What an emotional rollercoaster this completion day was! Thank you for sharing ALL of it. I am so glad you decided to spend a little time AT the monument and just sit in that moment of completion. We have had a real potpourri of weather this Sept in WA and I am happy you got such a beautiful one for this piece of your journey. 🎉🎉Congratulations🎉🎉
Nice job Li’Chap! You are an amazing hiker and you should be so very proud! Plus, you have an amazing heart. Usually I disconnect my subscription from most hikers who finish but, I will continue to subscribe to your channel because you are a great human being. 👍
Awesome views. You have shared the most unusual, most rugged and .most beautiful views on the ttrail, imo. I understand you not wanting to leave the backcountry. Thanks for bringing us with you.
Congratulations!! Wow, what an accomplishment. I hope you are doing well, probably at home, kicking back. I enjoyed the videos, thanks for sharing. And oh the FEELS. Awesome.
Congratulations Lil'Chap!! You have done it! I'm sure your dog is going to be happy to see you. Well done. Followed your journey the entire way. Mike from Maine
Congratulations Chap! I haven't been able to follow along since just after you separated with RR. Happy to see your finish though. I know it's been a long, emotional, and rewarding journey. Nothing wrong with solo my friend. My preferred method of being on trail! ;) ;) Although, it is nice to have others to share the trail with from time to time. Once again, congratulations!
Congratulations on completing your thru-hike. initially alternated between you and Road Runner but now a month behind trying to catch all your episodes. But jumping ahead to watch this one.
Big congrats 👏 !! Thanks for the ride along and greet views !! I've enjoyed following you all the way from San Diego . Happy CDT trails in the future on your journey to a Triple Crown 👑 !!
That was quite the journey you took us on. Thanks! Let us know your plans and hopefully you can a group to do the CDT. I've seen a few people do it solo, but even some of the most experienced quit when doing it alone. I think a team that sticks together is the way to go there, especially on the long road walks.
Congratulations! Can definitely tell the difference between trail editing and editing at home. Thank you for letting me hike vicariously through your videos. Since my start date was close to yours and I could not hike this year due to injury. Was great meeting you at PCT days! If anything you should definitely attend pct days next year! -Eddie
Awesome job Lil’ Chap very proud of you. Thanks for sharing It has helped me since I had a permit for this year and was going to start April 4th, but had to relinquish my permit for health reasons. Will attempt to hike the trail in 2025. I also must of crossed paths with you on the AT since I hiked it in 2022! Hope you are enjoying your family/dog. Loved your emotions. 4Runner
I’m not crying, you’re crying! Ok maybe I’m crying just a little. Congratulations, Chap on such an amazing accomplishment. I can’t express how much I have enjoyed following your incredible journey. I looked forward to watching every day and now looking forward to see what adventures you’re up to next. So very happy for you! Congrats, congrats, CONGRATS!!!
Congratulations!!! I am so stinking proud of you!!! You did it!!! You really did it!!! And what a fittingly beautiful day for you to capture the beauty of those last miles - I really felt like you were soaking it all in!!! Great job Mr Double Crowner - way to finish strong!!!
I’m so happy for you and so excited to have watched all of your hiking since the beginning (AT, etc.) You definitely will be a triple crowner and I can’t wait!!! CONGRATULATIONS!! I can completely see you being a Hostel owner and supporting the AT or a long trail. You seem to be drawn to the woods (me too, can't blame you) and want to be in the wilderness but close enough to a long trail. I can't wait to see what life brings you.
Good for you Chap, mission accomplished ! I am sure you are at home by now and are decompressing with family and more importantly, your dog. You deserve it ! Will be standing by for your future endeavors.
Awesome Chap, Your videos have been great. I don't think anyone has captured the views the way your videos have. I understand missing your dog. My dog goes everywhere with me. Congratulations Chap, Hell of a job!
So amazing. Loved watching your hike everyday. Thank you for taking us with you. Very inspiring. I'm so happy for you. (And if you aren't emotional about all that you accomplished than your heart wasn't in it.) Again thank you and best wishes on all your future endeavors. Hope we are invited to come along again. Safe travels home.
I recently started watching your videos and am enjoying them. I am only up yo your LA excursion, but I jumped to this one since it is your completion video. Loved it. I thru-hiked the PCT in 2021 and live in Lawrence, KS. If you need someone to talk to about your hike hit me up. I also completed my thru-hike by myself, even though most of the hike I hiked with my trail family. Congratulations.
Congratulations, watched daily since day 2 or 3, going to miss the daily fix. Looking forward to your next hike, don’t wait too long. This was a pretty amazing accomplishment, congrats again.
Congratulations....pretty sure I watched ever posting......what an accomplishment !! First found out about the PCT back in the late 70's. Was never able to hike it myself. Discovered the RU-vid PCT hiker postings vids in 2016. I pick a few every year to watch. Best wishes and will probably see you on the CDT....
