- So, I thought bears were what I had to watch out for! Turns out these hiker boys are a rare breed!
This boy was harmless, take a joke! It's just a great story!!
I'm not hiking the trail, I'm working at White Mountains Lodge and Hostel in New Hampshire! If you're through hiking stop in and tell them I sent you! www.whitemountainslodgeandhos...------------------------------

soooo... you're saying there's a chance!?
HAHAHAHAHA!!
Classic +2
Made my day lol.
LOLOL!!! One in a million. Great movie quote! Thanks Jim!
I think I already do!
Bear spray works on men too. Let that be his " once in a lifetime."
Guy Hays hahahahahaha!!!!! Yes!
awesome idea!!!
G19...?
A gun. Looks like Aaron here's a real badass.
Watch out, everyone.
G19....so, how do you planning on aiming when you got bear spray in your eyes??
Trying once is acceptable, hard to blame someone for trying... but the creeping... nobody wins in that scenario
legendzfall hahaha amen!!! You nailed it
Poor guy, he's just socially inept. Acting like he's got a teenage crush lol
bahaha totally!
that old saying... you never know unless you ask for it :) but def a time and place for those kinds of conversations.
That only applies as a guy if you're considered "hot". If you're not then you get labeled a creeper. Its common knowledge.
Totally relate! Just a heads up for the boys - girls out hiking alone are there because they like hiking alone, most likely because they like their own company and doing their own thing every now and then - not there looking for late night 'companionship' up on a mountain in the middle of nowhere! Please read the signals and give us some space guys when it's obviously what we want! Cheers for the fun spin on this story Sheila - love your work ;)
So glad you found the fun in it! So many people were offended 🙈
Lmao, at least the guy asked politely yet still so awkward
RIGHT
Easy fix. say your trail name is 'skid mark"... problem solved.
HAHAHAHAHAHA YEEEEEES!!!!
Maybe he had a one time deal on a property share?
Damn! I never thought of that! That was probably it...
You said it black bears are like over grown dogs and some men could also be put into that very same species my thought best to carry bear spay and a dog wistle for the occasional stray js
That's weird, especially the fact that we all are stank AF like you said. I'm the type where we both need to shower beforehand.
😄😄😄 I shaved most of the trail - and I even showered, too!
Meg Greenlee thanks for sharing.
Hi Meg.
😂 the last thing I'm trying to do is meet a girl while I'm on a hiking trip. I smell pretty nasty after a few days playing in the woods. Combine that with what a girl running around the woods for a few days smells like. mix it together and it would smell like a whole lot of NOT SEXY in the tent. I'm good.
From The Trail hahahaha that's what I was thinking!
Its a recipe for a UTI. Even if you use wipes.
I dunno what you people do but I bring bio-degradeable wipes, deodorant, baby powder, and tooth brushing supplies. I don't smell GREAT, but i'm not nasty either.
OMG!! Too funny, but oh so true. Had to laugh. Thanks for sharing. OMG, too darn funny. Loved it.
haha I'm so glad you can find the humor and sarcasm in it! Enjoy your hike!!
I'm dying! 😂 You are probably one of the prettiest girls any of them have seen on the trail so you can't blame them for trying! Hahaha.
Lindsay's Life Cafe hahah some of he hiker girls were pretty cute! People get hit on all he time out there!
But totally can't blame a guy for trying. He was nice enough and it made a good story! Haha
Maybe they'll invent an ultralight hiking gun!
hahahaha
You are something special!
Lol sounds like you ran into a creeper! His nose must not work very well! 🤣
Matt Lawson hahah I was just working in the hostel, so I hope I didn't smell too bad lol but still.
The guy is like the "Naked Man" from How I Met Your Mother. "Naked Man" principle works 30% of the time.
Have done solo hiking for years but not really solo if you include the dog. I had two incidences that were most undesirable wilderness camping. Both time my Akita dealt with it. I highly recommend hiking with a nice big dog, a rescue who would love to go hiking, and you most likely will not have too much to worry about. Be safe out there. Carry pepper spray and have it at the ready, the bottom of your pack. Take a RAD course. Your life is worth it. Don't listen to the naysayers. We have not only a right but an obligation to keep ourselves safe.
mollybmd thank you! Luckily I was working in a hostel so I felt very safe to call my coworkers but you're right better to be prepared!
mollybmd dogs are loyal and great
That was hilarious!!!!
I seriously cant stop laughing....that was his line....some companionship. yes I'm still laughing
Hahaha it was a good effort! lol
Here is a secret about us hiker boys. We don't care about a little fur or the smell.
Hahahahahahaha!!!! Amazing
@Kev Ro
So what you are telling me is that you are into skunks?? 🤣
Shayla, your just to beautifull... You and the outdoors is to much for these goobers... I hope you never run into any problems in the outdoors... Take care...
Haha thank you, so far so good!
nice video thanks friend i made the mistake of taking to card playing friends who turned to pot heads on the trail and came into the tent in the middle of the night crunching noodles and gittting real quit when i said who's there so i ended up wasting 3 cans of bear spray on two ass holes after 5 nights sleep rounded i turned back to dalton Ga. some people go nuts up there on the trail
YOU BEAR SPRAYED THEM?! Isn't that like super intense paper spray?!
yes and they did not learn a darn thing but i did i will never sponsor a trip like that again between jobs lol all they did was bitch about the pop tarts and rune my sleep so i had trouble hiking and complain about the food they helped to pick for the hike and steel my gear and smoke pot and gripe about having the much's
WOW! Please tell me that was some local dude. at a loss for words here. don't see a thru-hiker trying to pull a move like that.
worked out ok in the end i hope.
Haha definitely a thru hiker.. but he was harmless enough lol
The way i get privacy to do number 2 is i put on my poncho. I imagine it would work the same for girls unless it's see through.
Oh wow that’s a good idea!!
I guarantee you it has worked for him in the past.
Most likely ...
This was hilarious. I'm sorry you had to deal with that, but the manner in which you shared it was funny as hell. I cant believe a guy would do that to a stranger. I wonder if he thought being a perv would make him more attractive to you. lol Anyhow, be safe and take good care of yourself.
I just looked at the date of this video...sorry Im late, but better late than never. I stumbled across these hiking videos, and I would love to do something like that. It looks like fun
JRJ I didn't hike! I was just working in a hostel on the Appalachian trail! :)
Oh my! And here I thought you were hiking alone, on the trail, and this guy followed you, hid in the bushes and as you were going to sleep, came up and "knocked" on your tent.....only to learn that you were not actually camping but living in a tent and flaunting yourself at lonely travelers as they passed by day after horny day!!!! (haha) You are such a perv! (smile for me)
Incredibly straight forward, and incredibly pathetic. Guys, if you are interested in a female make sure she is safe and comfortable. Develop a friendship, show her you care for her through actions and words. If she is into you, you'll know- if she's not, you'll also know. To persistently engage in unsolicited sexual conversation in the backcountry is completely unacceptable. End of story. Guys, act better! Women, if they are bold enough to ask something so bold unsolicited, them be bold right back--if you get creepy vibes after that then get the f outta there or tell someone you trust about the situation.
This type of scenario boils my blood. I have zero patience or tolerance for that type of behavior.
Well it’s been a while for me I’m kind a old recently divorced but I recall you typically get those kind of hook ups laid out way before bedtime and it’s really obvious if you’re going to score or not there’s no knocking on someone’s tent That’s just creepy.
Hahahahaha 🙌
I always carry a gun with me just in case. I have no problem using it on jerks. I don't care if it's against the law to carry one in the parks or not.
Absolutely no reason to be smelly or unshaven if you don't want to be. Adventure cleanliness is like adventuring itself. Just takes practice. Also would like to defend my team and say I've suffered some way too forward backpacking females, so instead of saying it's male nature (to anyone saying it) just say it's human or even nature nature.
Subscribed. That was hilarious. But take the hint dude.
haha he was harmless enough! Thanks!
Well that makes us hiker guys look bad! But we're not all like that! Hey great since of humor lol ✌️️
100%, this was rare, and even he was nice! Just a little forward. Everyone I met on the trail was so amazing!!
Exactly....I've made it this far without any STDs...not taking any chances
Just another few more reasons why I wouldn't hike the trail without a 357!
Omg you were truely funny but yah point taken. Women should not have to deal with this crap on the trail period. What is wrong with these losers anyway? In closing well done and thank you for raising this point for everyone. Sharing this on the 2018 Appalachian Trail Announcement page.
haha no worries, no harm no foul! Just need to be assertive, thanks for watching and thanks for sharing!
Just tell them you've had your breast implants and you're waiting on insurance to approve the final step of your sex change operation from male to female.
Watch out for the Liars, Hikers and Bears ... Oh my!
Have you watched any of the thru hiker videos? They call themselves "hiker trash" both male and female! Bow if you haven'yt you really should have beforehand! Not only is the ratio skewed to be a sausage party but if you saw the videos than you know that you are the most exceptional looking lady that any of these guys will see in real life much less on the PCT or AT! Your best defense is keeping a bunch of pot on hand, edibles especially so with the body high that puts you down for the count! I don't think you could dress down enough to compensate for your beauty! I'm pretty sure that you could actually turn it in your favor! Wield it as a weapon and play them against each other! No slip ups tho you can only play that hand all the way! It only works once! Good luck and Happy Trails to you...
HAHAHA this is great Bruce and "play them against each other!" Trickster!!
Thank you for watching :)
I really should have proof read before I posted all those Typo's!
Story of my life!!! I can pick up what you're puttin down lol
I go hiking so I don’t have to deal with anyone. Girls included. When I am hiking, everyone has “cooties.”
Sometimes it's better to be thought of as a bitch than an easy target. Tell em to take a hike!
HAHA "Take a hike"
Yeah..he was a total stalker. Asking once is ok...time and time again is not cool.
Right?!
i guess that's a thing on the trail. kinda like summer camp if you know what I mean. guys can be creepy but so can women so watch out for both...
I believe it! Its just human nature!! haha
Oh my gosh- there are certainly advantages to being a guy, you have much less stupid people stuff to worry about.... Thanks for making me smile as i loved your presentation!
+Scott Helmann haha one of many advantages ;)
Were there banjos playing ?
Well you should upgrade to Target parking lots!! Different class of BOYS!!
Jay Weston hahaha the Walmart parking lot was just where I did the videos I was working in hiker hostel
Bear spray the hiker boys, then let one rip!
hahahaha!
Come to India be my special guest we explore Himalayas
That would be amazing !!!
Poor girl gets bothered by hiker boys
Eh, yeah he had zero game and no awareness that you gave him no cues. Sorry you had to endure that. Even asking the first time was bad.
Thanks, that was a really funny story. For you, probably not so funny when it was happening.
Have you been to the RTR in Arizona
I have not!
Once in a lifetime opportunity?! Yeah, for him maybe. Living On A One Way is kinda hot,....minus that trail funk she was talking about. LOL!!
Haha I worked in the hostel, no trail funk coming from me.. but I had to wash it!
What a creepo. If I would have seen that shit, he and I would have had words
Haha thanks for having my back!
Living On A One Way you got it
That smells like pure gasoline
Can't say that I blame him.
I get that crap from guys all the time. They'll walk up and act like they're selling a product with a limited time offer, act now. It's very difficult not to laugh when they do it.
HAHAHA "limited time offer, act now"
key word BOYS
hahaha....this video is awesome! you are hilarious! (the actions of the dude are stupid).... awesome editing! lol love it
Thank you!! I know but it made a great story!
You should have just let on rip!
hahah!
He'd turn up missing.
Very funny....whats your trail name?....
Bahaha HostelBabe, I didn't hike much, just worked in the hostel.
Living On A One Way cool
Do you kno what the RTR is
Nope
So just in case.....what should he have said?? Lol - maybe he was to kind when asking? Maybe if he was more like a black bear? Lol
Hahah I wasn't interested, if I was that line was clever and could have worked lol
ill have to remember that.... I will go out swinging ;)
so I have watched maybe three of your videos . I was wondering if it were possible to be any more Negative? most people go on the AP to enjoy nature not scorn it.
Oh I'm so sorry! They are just stories I think are funny :) the experience was great! Thank you for watching.
I hike a lot and have more girls hit on me than I hit on them. Sounds like you met a weird dude. I've never understood the stalker mentality or guys who will text or leave multiple voice mails for a girl. If she is not answering a first or second text/call, get a clue.
I agree, and that is interesting that girls were hitting on you!!
It's because I'm a big celebrity. I'm not going to lie.
I usually just send women a telegram asking them to confirm a romantic encounter upon the morrow.
Do you want to kno? Lol.... it's ok NVM.... nice talking to you... have a great day
Cutie.
pepper spray
I had a fog horn... which I guess would have at least got some peoples attention and scare the shit out of him!
100 cuts in 2 minutes.
As much as it sucks that might be a good reason to hike with a male friend so he can be your beard, even if you're not together in that way.
Thats not a bad idea! I wasn't hiking I was just working in the hostel. But I agree not a bad plan!
So a guy asked if you wanted to sleep with him, you said no, and you both went on with your lives. What's the problem?
Terpag11 haha no problem just a good story ;)
Exactly, but above you see "white knights" threatening physical violence and claiming the high ground. Dimwits.
+Molon Labe Yeah that's kind of my thinking... I'm not trying to be overly critical of her, but she is making it sound like guys making unwanted advances is equivalent to bear mauling threat.
It can be buddy! An ounce a prevention....
Definitely not the same as a bear mauling but a bit threatening as a girl alone in my tent. People have responded very strongly to this video in all the ways! In hiker boy's defense, in my defense. It all ended well, now it's only an entertaining story. Not trying to offend ;)
Next trip ill bring a girl with me maybe i wont get jumped on by a 13 year old girl on blood mount-ion near the cliff and scare me half to death yelling i love you dandy i did not know her from add-ems house cat i was walking away from the cliff and she came out know were jumping spreed out like a star fish and rapped around arms and legs then her mother came out of the cabin wanting to throw me in jail im scared half to death then her grand a German was standing on a rock above watching the hole deal play out the police showed up and on my hike down the police got a interpreter to ask her what happened i was then cleared of any wrong doing before i ever reached kneels gap hostel
Lol, never done that, what a jerk!
we have black bears here in Alaska...they are worse than brown bears..brown bears dont wanna mess with you usually.(cuss real loud. they can feel the vibes from swear words..loud cussing like you have turrets..let em know whos boss). they want to fish. black bears are curious and get accustom to human easily which makes them more dangerous.(p.s. dont ever talk to a black bear like ace ventura does at the beginning of the movie with that dog, i made that mistake once in Whittier,AK and the bear thought i was his buddy)
That's funny! I was in Alaska two summers and the advice was always to talk to them!! Thanks for watching!
+Yoga Shay no way..you talk to them they will keep coming towards you..if you cuzz and yell they take you as a threat and leave..thats my experience every summer on the kenai with those bears..whittiers black bears are a different story..they arent afraid of people..
+matanuska high I believe you! I didn't see any! The Kenai is where I was! Cooper landing :)
+Yoga Shay right on! i live in wasilla but try to be in kenai every week with my raft and fishing pole during the sockeye run. if im not in kenai im fishing one of the valley rivers like willow creek or montana
+matanuska high my brother used to work at kingfishers right in cooper landing..he was an actual resident for awhile.
If I was a gal, that would definitely infringe upon my outdoor experience and annoy the pooh out of me.
BE CAREFUL! you’re in a vulnerable situation, are you trained in self defence? From one chick to another, you were in REAL danger. Tell your sister the cop and see what she says. Please be careful.
He should've negged and kino'd her. Totally would've worked.
Just get a few weeks farther into the trail. After a few hundred miles most dudes have the sex drive of 80 year old men. I heard. From a friend, gosh!
Hahah I was in New Hampshire! He must have been a so bo!
Lol
holy fuck hahahaha
Bear spray... WTF who does that.
Woods Farm for the bears?!
I mean for the dude who came sniffing around your tent for the second time. Bears are smarter... you only have to tell them to buzz of once.
Or if you don't have bear spray, launch a flare at him next time.
You're saying use the bear spray on the guy?! Hahahahaha
😂😂😂😂🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
That's a NO....
Thank you!! 🙌🙌🙌
It's a sheer pleasure to occasionally understand the opposite sex in simple terms and the way you lay it out is hard to resist indeed! CHEERS to you ONE WAY, whichever way you wind through this world I wish you the best. Sincerely,
W Tango Delta
How do you meet your husband?
Bumble lol
You were born too pretty for guys to resist...perhaps
guns may be heavy, but sometimes ................
Too many creeps!!!!!
dealing with a boy not a grown man.
hahahah exactly!
As a guy, this isn't something I've ever understood, even as a teenager, I could see a girl totally not interested and for some reason the dude totally blind to it. I've actually approached guys in bars because they wouldn't leave a girl alone. Yep, it's just straight WEIRD!
haha good for you!
Oh brother, Why can't guys take a hint that you are not interested. Typical male thing if they bug you enough they hope you will say yes. Saying it nice may not be enough. That bear spray may come in handy after all. Just sayin
Rose Brown hahahaha of definitely could! I didn't have bear spray though, only a fog horn 😂
Too many jump cuts...anyway I dont' think having to tell people no qualifies as something to "worry about" in the same way being mauled and killed is. If someone is an actual rapist, that is something to worry about. I mean he just asked, words, words don't cause physical harm. Why is our culture so socially backwards that a basic social interaction like a request and a denial of that request, is considered a big deal?
I agree, he was harmless, other than coming out to my tent when everyone slept in the house. But it wasn't something I was worried about, just a funny story ;)
Its a bitch being good looking i know .when i was younger the women would''t leave me alone..now that i'm older they slacked off a bit.
Yikes! Thats unfortunate. Why would anyone really want to get down like that out on the trail anyway? Everyone is filthy.. just not appealing =( Also the stalking is a tad creepy but its not uncommon among bros. I try to explain to any of my hetero male buddies that have ever been guilty of this to just imagine themselves in the girl's situation except you are surrounded by a bunch of overly eager and slightly aggressive gay men, each of which outweigh you by about 70lbs, and dont seem to take "no" for an answer. It would be a little unnerving.
BDBushcraft this is exactly right!!!
And I'm so with you, everyone was rightfully a bit stinky!
Bummer about the ratio to women and men!
Big bummer, but everyones so dirty I can't image it would be too enticing.. but maybe after a few months I guess anything is possible!
Maybe the hookup culture doesn't work so well?
Its works fine, If you're an 8 or above. Bitches like her think anyone lower than that is a "creeper" if they dare to try and hookup with someone.
WOW, really.. that's sad!
Hoobilly Indiana haha don't worry it was harmless enough and it made an alright story!
all the time's (premarriage) I'd been backpacking, I'd never thought (or would) of doing that!...
it's just kinda weird, but a good story...
Try to look ugly and they might stop.
+Killa Shrub haha I'll give it a shot
1). Your attractive
2). Open your mouth and say "I'm not interested ".
99% of the time you will never hear from them again. If u still do, you would still be bothered by him if you were not up front, and u will also know he is trouble.
This is true, up front is the best way. I just know what it's like to muster up the courage and ask, so I always feel bad with the straight forward. I think most people do... which I agree is our problem.
Living On A One Way - Well put.
I hope you carry a gun while hiking, you don't want to end up on one of them crime shows on TV, do you? Not trying to scare you or anything but, you can never be too safe in this world. There's a lot of evil out there just waiting for an opportunity to strike, and being on the trails alone...... yeah, a gun is a must-have in my book.
I totally understand, the culture is pretty laid back. I wasn't hiking I was just working in the hostel :)
