    We're only a few days from June now, are you still on pace to complete the CYTC?

    • @JaruWalks
      @JaruWalks Před 4 dny

      Technically no, I’m behind pace. But I’m trying to complete a calendar year triple crown on a continuous footpath while obeying the park rules (katahdin is closed). If I were trying to assure I complete the cytc in time I would have flipped to the pct a while back. If there were Vegas odds, I would assume my chances are like 30% right now. Once I am up katahdin and on the pct, we should get a quick sense of if I can put the daily mileage out i will need to finish on time. It is still absolutely possible. But I have gambled, and the outcome depends on when they open katahdin and how fast I’m able to hike on the pct.

    As you probably know by now, you're mispronouncing Moosilauke in these videos (at least you are consistent, though). It rhymes with "Milwaukee," not "walk." (I confirmed by viewing Taylor the Nahamsha Hiker's Winter hike on Mt. Moosilauke video prior to posting this comment). Hike on!

    • @JaruWalks
      @JaruWalks Před 4 dny

    Pretty sure that's me you mentioned around 15 min mark. You and I chatted for about 10 mins on Moosilauke. Was fantastic running into you and hearing your story! Fun following your story in the Whites and the ugnliness of postholing and the "joys" of April/May in NH. Ask any hiker which month they hate the most up here and it's almost always going to be May. It's ugly at times! Can only imagine what Fishin Jimmy was like coming off North Kinsman.

      @artcflowers Před 4 dny

      ​@1519Spring excellent inquiry! "It can be pronounced Moose-il-lock or Moose-il-lock-ie. Either is fine. For those who are interested Moosilauke is named after Mt. Moosilauke in New Hampshire." Dartmouth folks moose-il-lock.

    Good to see you today. I found myself thinking about your travel in the Whites when I tapped the thermostat during yesterday's cold PNW day. Crazy how I can add to my comfort with a couple gentle taps. Ironic the similar thoughts in your video today. I lived on my property before building. A tiny experience of a three walled shelter, no running water and an outhouse. Magical days that I will always love! I imagine the slide you took had your heart racing. Glad the tree stood there to help you out. (Also glad you have a helmet!) Take careful steps and immerse in the moments. Still cheering you on from the west coast. 💜

    Welcome to NH (of course you are gone by now). We say it everyday “We Love Nh”. My wife 63 and I 60 hiked Smarts Mt. southbound 2 days ago and discussed whether we would see you. We were late!!!. Anyway, yes an awesome hiking community here. We hike the Whites all year and like a lot of us we find winter hiking better. No bugs, a steady slope with no rock hopping/climbing and the views. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your experience in the whites. I hope they treated you as well as they treat us.
