What is Beer in Beautiful Places?
Hi, I’m Maddie! Celebrating an outdoor adventure with a beer has been a long-time tradition for me, and I wanted to create a platform for like-minded folks to come together. In my videos, I cover all types of adventures and review beer! Topics include day hiking, kayaking, travel, thru-hiking, and life on the road. In short, if you would describe yourself as an outdoorist, outdoorsman, outdoorswoman, hiker trash, nomad, or dirtbag, come on along, this is the channel for you! Welcome and cheers!

“The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched - they must be felt with the heart”
You are very talented with narration. I don't feel like we're missing anything. The hearts with the privy were hilarious, I know exactly how small things like that feel.
Between your awesomely authentic narration, the pacing and editing of your videos, and the overall style, your channel reminds me of Homemade Wanderlust. I hope you take this as compliment because that’s how it’s intended. You and Dixie (Jessica) aren’t necessarily similar, but there’s just something special about your videos in a way that’s reminiscent of hers. Another excellent video!
The common denominator between Maddy and Jessica is talent. They've both got it in oodles.
Oh wow I love Dixie’s videos.
This is definitely a HUGE compliment in my book.
Maddie has the best AT.videos I’ve seen of the trail.
Love how Maddy does her best to keep it real.
Just love it overall.❤
Your narrations are the best. Very enjoyable vlogs. I look forward to the rest of your hike. Thanks!!
As a kid I used to work on my uncle’s farm during summer months. Every cow has a different temper but they’re mostly docile. First thing, never startle an animal, make your presence be felt by talking out loud . If they don’t notice you, clap your hands loudly while still talking loud, that will affirm your authority. Any agressive move of the animal must be answered with the same attitude but louder and swinging your trekking poles. Bulls have different attitudes but they’re never left in the same pasture with cows unless they’re kids because their aggressivity stresses cows and lowers milk quotas.
Coming along on that sped up portion of the trail was fun!
I agree!!!
This reminded me of my hike there in the 1900s 😆 actually 1994 ish. My husband & his best friend & I went to hike there. We somehow got off the AT trail onto a wide, muddy horsetrail. By evening we figured out we couldn’t reconnect with the main trail by dark, so we set up our shared tent & camped by the horse trail. Woke up the next morning to a syncophony of Mooing 😆 AND with a cow patty at our tent exit. They were all very curious apparently.
Fortunately we made it back to the trail & looped around to that parking lot where we saw all the ponies.
I love watching you pursue this goal. I had dreamed of completing the AT someday, but time & motherhood & now a crappy spine have gotten in my way.
Enjoy all those moments in the moment.
Grandma always said cows are more afraid of you than you are of them. We hiked in the woods a lot as kids!
Girl!!! Your videos are such top quality!!!! I get so excited when a new video comes out😃 Your great happy personality is the icing on the cake❤😃
Loving these videos! I’ve been on vacation the last few weeks so have catching up on your shorts as they appear in my feed but so excited I get to binge watch all the long form content I’ve missed in the interim! These are the best
I'm still trying to catch up to current . The work you are doing is stellar...it's like I'm watching a CBS Sunday morning piece... excellent work.
You can never be sure with any animal. You did it right!😊
You did the correct thing with the cattle. Took your time, and didn't stomp through, rattling them in the process. The alternative was just to pop over the fence and have that barrier between you and them.
Absolutely so proud of you. Just love your channel. Hang in there. Thank you for sharing your journey. 💕
I am so happy to have found this video. I am currently almost done reading a book by a guy that hiked the Appalachian trail in 2005...his trail name was Skywalker, and your videos have made the trail come to life for me. And he wrote about some of the places you mentioned. This is SO cool. The book is actually called Skywalker if you ever want to read it. LOVE THIS!
That's beautiful country. I loved those baby cows!!
GO MADDIE, GO!! 🚶🏼♀️
You are the coolest person ever. the coolest AT hiker. I hope you catch up to your friends.
🤣😂🤣I love your sense of humor!❤
What a great watch. Loving the journey.
So emotional for me at the end. I never saw it that way, but I guess the time I gave AT hikers supplies I was part of the “AT provides” family. At least it felt like that after watching this update. You’re doing great Mattie. Keep on keeping on 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I really look forward to these update videos so much, thanks for taking all the time and energy to put them together and everything while you're out there.
Thanks for sharing your incredible journey, you are such a vibrant positive beautiful inspirational person ⭐️👍
Great job filming, I love your videos. what an adventurous life you have. Happy for you.
WOW girl, you're hiking so strong! You've also become way more comfortable with the trail and you've settled into thru hiker life easily. You are doing so great! Hike safe, Hike strong, Have fun!

PS, next time 1 pizza isn't enough to deliver, order a hoagie too and if that is enough, take the hoagie with you tomorrow for breakfast, snacks and lunch.
I once went through a raging creek to go around a big old bull cow. He could have cared less probably. Neat snail. Uh oh more cows. The fast forward really tickles me😂, Beautiful pony, such unique coloring. People are just wonderful and kind...
I once decided to backtrack and loop around a slightly aggressive swan that was very determined to protect his/her cygnets. Cows and ponies are so more "friendly" towards humans than swans ;-)
Great job…. Love the honesty in your videos…be safe and keep on WALKING 🍺🍺
You’re killing it. Love your vids. Keep going!
Fellow hikers always look out for each other, including pizza !! Enjoy the mild terrain because once you enter New England its all rocks and boulders.
HEY COW! is the proper greeting.
Love watching your videos.
“and it’s the Grayson Highlands, so gonna see some ponies” was so cute 😆
Don't let things get to you. Looks like you're having a great time. I wish I could do what you are doing 😅
I love your optimistic attitude. 😊
Lmao I can’t get over the little anime heart guitar riff during your trip to the facilities
Yaaay! So happy for your big miles and your pizza!! Nice ending. Thanks for sharing.
I know you are proud of doing big mile days but please listen to your body. If your legs are aching, please do less miles. Stress injuries from pushing yourself before you are ready is a common hike ender. You will get to the point when it's all easy and the miles fly by without any pain. Please don't push yourself until you are ready. You have the right mindset! You make us laugh so much! 😂 Keep up the great attitude! ❤
Hey Maddie! Glad to see you trekkin' on! 23 miles is a good day, keep going, you're doing great!
Glad you got some pizza. That was so nice of that woman to share...that's good karma.
Got a kick out of you speaking 'cow'! LOL!
Hope your poison ivy isn't bothering you too much.
Take care, be safe, and ENJOY!
Good on you!! That’s a lot of miles! Glad you got 🍕🍕from a trail buddy💛💛
😂u talking to the cow, that was so cute! I’m glad u got pizza 🍕!
Maddie, you have inspired me so much with these videos! I love watching you walk, your attitude and seeing the beautiful nature! Because of you, I've been looking at trails in my country. We dont have mountains or much nature where I live, but apparently there are lots of walking trails anyway!
Beautiful scenery!
You crushed my local stretch of the AT (Damascus to Fox Creek). Great job! That's tougher terrain. Really enjoy your camera work and commentary. You're funny. Hopefully you got to have some Damascus Brewery Beaver beverages before leaving Damascus. Good luck.
Aloha Maddie Congratulations Honestly i dont want you alone out there it's always good to have a friend or more people with You. JESUS CHRIST our LORD go before You safe Journeys my friend LOVE and GOD Bless You all ❤⚘🥰🙏🙋♀️
The comments and narration gets better by the week. Highlight this week was reference to the poison ivy "itchin' and oozin'". It doesn't get better than that. Keep up the great work, hope you are well and staying strong. Jack NYC
You were in my back yard… lol.. Virginia has pretty friendly cows…you are doing so great!!
Just want to say thanks for the videos. I am enjoying your hike. I’m a pct section hiker, and I enjoy listening to old time radio detective shows. Way before my time, but kind of fun. I particularly like falling asleep to them.
Thanks, I am really enjoying your videos!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it!
I wish I could do this .stay safe may God be with you
Hang in there!!!
Hi Maddie, sometimes 'embracing the suck' sucks! Keep going and happy trails ✌️
I’ve been slowly catching up on your AT adventure, and I love this one!! My husband raises cows on our farm, and most of them just walk away from you but once in a while he gets a crazy one, and he’s been charged before for sure. 😆 but that being said, they’ve never charged at me, maybe because I don’t “work” them (put them in the chute to give them medicine, make them move from one pasture to another when they need to, etc.). 😅
Thanks!
Cookie!!!! Thank you so much!!! 💚💚💚
Great video, Maddie.
Welcome to the AT on the East Coast. Happy journey to Katahdin.
Your videos are so much fun to watch!
I hope you are enjoying your walk Ranger!! I really enjoyed your video' thank you for sharing with us.Good luck to you.
I’m highly allergic to poison ivy, I usually need a shot from the doctor. I Get it every summer. Good luck with all that. Stay safe. You are incredible.
I love cows! They are just so curious :D
🥾 I loved the zoomies walk through the rocks 😂 🙌🏼 500 miles!!! Woohoo!!! Well done
Another great video! Thank you so much.
Awesome kid, long walk,lol💪💪💪💪power on✌
You should do a video on how you do videos while traveling! I'm always worried about your battery! Keep up the good work!!!
Love love this one! 🎉generous pizza🎉💜
Try grounding by walking barefoot on the ground preferably early in the morning when the dew is on the grass because water on the ground increases the ground effect on the human body to heal from the inside out. It’s free to ground yourself so give it a try for one month 15 minutes a day before you hike. The shoes humans wear usually have a rubber or plastic separator that separates the human skin from the earth. Also swimming or touching in a body of water grounds also.
Love the cow LOL
Great video.
Keep an eye out for jewelweed to help with your poison Ivy!
I'm solo packing in two weeks. Looking forward.
Another great video! What music did you decide to play to help get you up them foggy hills? No rain, no Maine…just keep moving forward!
If I remember, right, it was a podcast about subconscious thoughts!
@@BeerinBeautifulPlaces Interesting topic…you have to be extremely strong-minded to be thru hiking the AT! Most people don’t realize how hard it can be out there, but you’re doing an awesome job of overcoming the adversities! Admirable and inspirational 👍
I know when the thru hikers come down by Palmerton pa Appalachian Trailhead at PA-248 you'll see him go to the laundromat in town and all you see is people eating peanut butter and wearing pretty much nothing but spandex
Great videos, great journey, very inspiring. Do you get a lot of ticks?
Coffee tea are diuretics so not too much in your mornings or you will lose your hydration much quicker
Great video, as usual. Do you have something to replace the umbrella? Congratulations on 24 K!!!
Did I mishear you, or did you say you mixed your coffee with your oatmeal? I mean, it is efficient to do it that way, and if you give it a thumbs up, I’ll try it. But I’m wary. I probably misunderstood you.
hydrocortisone in pack bleach dries it up in a couple days
HAHAHAHHAHA! The cow.
Just found this channel and fully enthralled. How fast does one walk to get through that much land?
I usually do 15-20 miles a day
Hang in there ! I know ur on the road . Please stay safe. You could film and narrate a rock and we would enjoy it !
I'm back from the road trip now and enjoying the ease of apartment life! Thank you!!!
@@BeerinBeautifulPlaces great 👍! Can look forward to more wisdom from you from home sometime !
My only worry would be sleeping alone in the tent in the forest. I guess I am watching too much scary stories …
👍🤙✌️
cow a good omen?
The cow is a symbol of prosperity and holiness in Hindu mythology. Even Mandarin legends attribute similar qualities to the cow. The Chinese wish cow that presides over treasures is a symbol of wish fulfilment in feng shui....do Holy Cow Good omen!!!
Just wondering where you are.Great video.
I thought I said it, my bad! I was heading out of Damascus, so Southern Virginia!
Yeah people are uninformed about cheese, haha. It'll keep a couple days for sure. Americans tend to be obsessed with refrigeration.
oh snap, is that the first smoke sighting?
I don’t remember what happened in this video, but if this is the one where we have a lunch spot with a view, it was one of the first times I featured him in a video!
Awesome. I just found you
I wear a sewing needle in a piece of para chord around my neck all the time
awright, sister . . . let's go! 1💫kozmiczian
I like your hiking videos. Whats the weirdest thing you've ever seen out there?
Also, do you recommend packing some heat with you?
What kind of gate/maze is that at 8:57? Is that to keep bikes off the trail?
Keep cattle or horses in their field but allow hikers thru … avoids having a gate which can accidentally get left open .
You are funny! A cute kind of funny
The cows are tagged so I would expect them to be used to humans
Did you happen to see any bears? 👍👍
Not so far!
@@BeerinBeautifulPlaces I just subscribed. I loved your video and I can’t wait for the next.
How heavy does your pack get?
Probably 30 lbs, max
Baby sliders mooo
She has a barbie with her it might be dangerous be careful sweetie ❤❤⚘🥰🙏🙋♀️
I never considered this bear can conspiracy?
Bears can't read? I'll be dipped! I never knew that!
BTW, I don't mean to get personal, but that Spam might have been a contributing factor in Maddie's issues in keeping up her pace. One ofthe worst foodsw known to man (and woman), in my opinion.
Cows will
Not bother you, in fact they have a conversation distance of about 20 ft. Bulls like you up close and personal.
Your allergy medicine will help the poison ivy itch
Babie not barbie
Enjoy every minute!!!!!
