This was one of the best experiences of my life! Thru Hiking Entire Appalachian Trail in 120 Days (Full documentary)
In 2020, I attempted to thru-hike the entire Appalachian Trail. Unfortunately, the pandemic took me off the trail just 3 short weeks into my journey. :(
Delays happen... Although I had to wait a bit longer than anticipated, I’m grateful for the experience.
Fast forward to 2021, its Appalachian Trail redemption! That’s right! I’m stronger than ever and ready to conquer my dream of completing the Appalachian trail.
In this video, I vlogged my FULL 120 day journey on the Appalachian trail. Intrigued? Check out everything I did everyday on the trail! You will want to watch until the end.

Taylor, You will remember this for the rest of your life. I spent two whole summers hiking and backpacking around the country, 1968-1969. I was 27-28 and really fit, I'm almost 81 now and am still active, think of the wonderful adventures yet to come, live life to the fullest, without regrets. Have a wonderful marriage:) Cheers, Frederick "Rik" Spector

Just wanted to tell you that your vlogs were the beginning of so many great changes in my life. I had been on disability for PTSD for 5 years and was miserable. I felt like life was passing me by and my fears ruled my life. One day your thru hike popped up on my feed and I followed along your hike. I asked my parents if they would watch my dogs to see if I could give it a try in 2022 and they agreed. Although I only made it 200 miles last year due to severe IT band syndrome and the PTSD, there was something so significant about experiencing the terror nightly and yet walking forward the next day. That experience and the kindness I experienced on trail gave me the courage to try it in real life. In September I started my first FT job in 5 years in special education. Through the anxiety, I kept moving forward. I plan to do a SOBO thru hike this year. I believe the lessons I've learned and the courage I've gained along the way will see me through. THANK YOU for all your hard work that went into sharing your journey. It led me to the first step in mine.

@TaylortheNahamshaHiker Год назад

You are the first video I watch of the AT and have just confirmed in my head that at 65 when I retire this is going to be my first adventure in starting March of 2028. Thank you for this video and now I need to watch many more and start planning and getting mentally prepared. After finishing the AT I will start building my Van to travel North and South America.

This September I have an appointment with my Neurologist who (I'm hoping) will clear me for a thru-hike! I've never hiked, but if all goes as planned, I'll be part of the Class of 2025 💜 Thank you for sharing your inspiring journey, and I look forward to seeing more of your content. 🥂

@jplmedley Год назад

Really enjoyed this video - you have such great enthusiasm. I finished the 4000 footers this past Summer and working on the 14ers of Colorado now. Your tears in the 100 mile wilderness somehow really touched me. It reminded me of just how much heart and love there is in the woods, and how it opens me up to stand and move through the wilds like that. And I had unexpected tears when you crossed into Maine and had the Baxter beer! :) What a wonderful journey! Thanks for sharing.

@jacklamberson1431 Год назад

Can't wait to watch this all the way through at least once. I followed you all the way last year and really miss you and Cody this year. Am following a couple people this year but it just isn't the same as you two last year. Am hoping the future holds some more thru hikes for you and hope Cody goes as well, also the Chet for sharing you with all of us last year, some this year and in the future. Best of luck in all you do. Take Care and Be Safe God Bless

Thank you for taking us along Taylor. Such a beautiful adventure you went on and completed 🙌 As a former Vermonter now living in N.C. just south of Franklin near the GA border in the mountains I know the beauty of the northern and southern Appalachians and loved this!!! I almost planned a thru hike back to N.E. in 2017 but the realization of all the planning, financially and keeping life's balance and a bad knee kept me from taking the nearly 2200 mile leap. I am very happy you did it and proud of you as it's many a true hikers and outdoors person achievement. Congrats and thanks again for taking me on the adventure I couldn't put together. John.

Thank you, thank you, thank you for this most amazing adventure. Have never done a hike like this before, but I completely identify ... because my "adventure" akin to this were my two cross-country bicycle rides (first one back in 1993 and then a second time in 1999). Totally different in so many ways, but so totally akin to your trek. All I can say is, "Three cheers, Taylor! You are a true hero!" This chronicle of your trek was one of the most fun experiences I've ever enjoyed, following your trail posts, reading your comments, and cheering you on. Well done. If you ever get to Ridgefield, CT, please look us up ... I'm Al, my wife is Jan ... and together, we are the only Galletly family (to the best of my knowledge) in Connecticut. Again, thank you for sharing your incredible adventure with all of us. It's been a real joy "being with you." xoxo

Just watched your video "Connecting My Footsteps" from 7 months ago. I am so proud of you Taylor. When I made my comment before I did not realize that you DID already do my suggestion about returning to Virginia to officially finish the AT by hiking the missed section of trail. I could see in your eyes that it must have been a great feeling especially when you consider the fact that you drove down there 13 hours and back. Also, you did it "within the year" anniversary. I live in New Hampshire too and have my 4k certificate completed in 1992 and again in 2002. Hiked the AT from Hanover to Errol and stayed at all the AMC huts. Greenleaf on Lafayette is the only one not right on the AT. Subscribed now and catching up on all of your videos. Many memories.
