Love it! We stayed at Butter Gap our second night too and were treated to the most amazing synchronous firefly show ever! It was so cool!

@HikingwithBraids 3 года назад

Oh that would have been neat to have seen!

@leedanielson7452 3 года назад

That opening was absolutely spectacular! Wow! 🥰👍⛰🏕🌿🌲

@derekwoodley4084 Год назад

You made this section look WAY too easy. Pilot Mountain and Chestnut Mountain just about killed me last week when I did this. 😂

@kevintolbert4934 3 года назад

You cross the parkway BRP . Also, you cross pilot mountain road twice and an intersection. Another road 471. You pass trail 106 Farlow gap and 123 Butter gap right before the shelter. I was there last week. 🙂. It is a tough trail.

I like that long sleeve camouflage shirt. It looks comfy.

@Mark Rebeor it’s a Smartwool base layer top. I have the same one 🙂

Looks like some rock scrambles for day 2 and more nice views. Happy hiking and god bless

@joedygert4362 3 года назад

love the ant show that was neat

@phillipholcombe4223 3 года назад

All the animals that came to meet you on the AT now you having a conversation with ants don't surprise me. Enjoying your hike!

@HikingwithBraids 3 года назад

Even the ants need encouragement lol

@williamking2249 3 года назад

Awesome video of the trail, it was really nice. Seems loaded with campsites, the shelter at Butter looks like it needs a little help, with lumber prices the way they are The forest service should wait a little before they tackle that project. Isn't that one of the areas that's having bear problems?

Another beautiful day to hike! Thank you for sharing😊

@tomt9543 3 года назад

Some really beautiful views on this trail! What’s the info on that silver pouch you heat your meals in? That’s something new to this old goat!

@HikingwithBraids 3 года назад

It's called a cook pouch. I made it using a cheap car sun shade from walmart, duct tape and sticky velcro.

@tomt9543 3 года назад

@@HikingwithBraids AHA! Hiking DIY! You should do a video on that Braids! Seriously! This could be the start of a hobby within a hobby! Any gear that can be DIYed saves $$$$! And I bet I’m not your only viewer who would be interested in occasional content like that! Onward!

@dbstewart4496 3 года назад

You stand as a role model for all hikers, and especially for women. IMHO, Other backpackers can take a page from your book when it comes to diet/food. Doesn't have to be cheap carbs.

@HikingwithBraids 3 года назад

In all honesty, I ate a lot more of the cheap carbs on my thru hike. It's tough to get better options on a long distance hike, but shorter hikes like this I definitely eat much healthier!

@leedanielson7452 3 года назад

You haven’t seen any deer to talk to...Oh God I Lol every time you talked to them on the AT! Which was quite a few times.😂🦌🥰⛰🌲🌿🏕🐍

@HikingwithBraids 3 года назад

It was sad. No animals at all except some ants and a bird lol

@steveshillingsburg5727 3 года назад

Great videos. I just finished the ALT in 2 days. Should have done it in 3! Where was the piped spring near Black Balsam? I couldn't figure out where that was? Did you take the spur trail?

@HikingwithBraids 3 года назад

I can't remember the name of the trail but, yes it is on the gravel spur trail just a few 100 yards on the right.

@jasonmears4393 2 года назад

Just curious, I watched your linville gorge video. Awesom video by the way.. Which hike do you think is better regarding views and terrain? Linville Gorge or this hike.

@HikingwithBraids 2 года назад

Linville - at least the part I did. The Art Loeb can be pretty rocky.

@jasonmears4393 2 года назад

@@HikingwithBraids ive hiked in the gorge and everytime it blows me away of how beautiful it is. Thanks for responding.

@kevintolbert4934 3 года назад

Does anybody know what the bird was? Possibly a towee?

@misscandy84 3 года назад

Does that twnr zip up or always open like that ? Bc I be afraid snakes a spiders coming in tent without it zipped

@HikingwithBraids 3 года назад

Yes it zips closed so no worries of bugs

@bumblebeehikes Год назад

The little side trail to the piped water source before the parking area is it marked? I am planning to do the Art Loeb trail soon and curious about whether I will have to hunt for this side trail or not.

@HikingwithBraids Год назад

It’s not marked but you will see the trail on your right after you cross over the bald and start down. It connects back with the Art loeb trail if you walk the road a little.

@bumblebeehikes Год назад

@@HikingwithBraids thank you

@misscandy84 3 года назад

Tent zip up I mean ?
