Just love it!
Just watching your videos makes me smile. Thank you!
The views all around are fantastic. Great video. Thanks for sharing. 👍212
I have to say that, while I envy the opportunity that you have to do this thru-hike that my artificial knees (and doctor) say I really can't consider doing anymore, I even more envy the real-time views that you have been showing us -particularly in the last several days in the Sierras. I fully know from personal experience that these sorts of video views don't do the actual scene justice (even though your video views are really spectacular). From the views that you have shown us, I'm guessing it would take me a full season just to get through the Sierras because of all the lengthy stops I would need to make to take in the majesty. Thanks for taking me along; I'm really enjoying the trip...
DAAAAAAADDDDDD!!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Almost 1000! Great job! Can you show us what bug spray you're using in a future video? Thx.
The first little blue flowers are Stickseed (later it has seeds that stick in your socks). The “new” yellow flower with big leaves is Mule Ears (you’ll see Lots of these the next several weeks), and that last bunch of low purple-y flowers are phlox. Taller bright pink are mountain pride.
And good job on your water crossings!!
Sorry we missed you my wife and I work at Carson Pass...
Awesome place at Carson Pass! We met Missy and Louie.
Great videos really enjoy watching the journey!
Always enjoy you videos!
Awesome video. It shows how happy yall are. Congrats!
It's not just Ramsey's height that helps her, she also has a strong and stable technique for river crossings, poles upstream, leaning into the current and moving sideways. I'm loving your videos and wish you all well for enjoying the rest of the trail.
😊❤ you two are such professionals...I enjoy your vids keep on trucking
You should look into a tenkara fly fishing setup. It’s very lightweight and easy to learn. The pole expands from like 2’ for the pack to 10’ for fishing. And they’re not so expensive. You could use it for the rest of California through Oregon and Washington. Set up another CZcams channel for fishing on the PCT. 🤣
Word of advice, take both a tenkara and std spinner.
Tenkara is awesome for running water (for which they were developed in Japan) and really close in fishing.
But when you see large(r) fish jumping/feeding out deeper, purity goes out the window.
Besides, it's usually windy, so you're gonna want to fling a lure way out there anyway
I typically use 2lb test, but I've found lakes on SEKI where the fish can break it off regardless of drag setting.
Zoo, come back and explore; you guys would love it. I'll give you a tip/hint: go up Shepard, go x-country either side of the Kern
@@larkangel6593 I think that two fishing poles add a lot of weight, and the spinning rod requires a very heavy reel. Plus, and this is important, it's banned in a lot of wilderness areas. You need to use barbless hooks, flies, or natural bait.
@@SkepticalRaptorweight is relative
If I'm traveling strictly to fish, I'm taking a pan, oil, etc to eat 1 or 2 anyway (the rest c&r of course)
Besides, an ultralight 6' 2-4lb set up is super light in its own respect
You might want to check the fishing regs - no bait, barbless artificial lures (fly or spin)
@@larkangel6593 Sorry, but you're not thinking like a PCT hiker. This conversation is inane.
Really need the name of that magical mosquito repellent!
It's suddenly become a common product. Brands include REPEL, Murphy;s Naturals, Cutter. Just Google "Eucalyptus mosquito repellant"
Great effort today along with some beautiful views.
Love the log crossing! Appreciate all the intel as I start SOBO in a couple of weeks.🙂
Kerrick and ? (turbulent) Creek and ? (calm) Creek and (wide) creek names. ? Rancheria, Return, Falls???? Luv Yosemite. Wow. Still a lot of snow/frozen Dorothy Lk. Camped there 2x. And trail snow melt wading 🤦♂️😂
Nicely done 👍👍😀😀
After you mention the lemon eucalyptus mosquito repellent you need to say link in the description. You could earn referral points.
Please, let us know how the lemon eucalyptus spray compares to Deet?
Enjoying your videos! Curious if your mosquito repellent is home made or purchased? If the second, can we get a name brand please? If the first, a recipe please?

It’s Coleman Botanicals - Oil of Lemon and Eucalyptus (30%). Not sure what the other 70% is composed of. The mosquitos barely even come close after I rub it on!
Is the upload date a week after the film date? Just curious because I'm headed to there this weekend for a section hike with some of my family, and I'm trying to judge the creek crossing and snow levels. Thanks, I enjoy the videos!
Yes we have about a week buffer!
If I just watch Marg then I can never tell which are the hard days
She’s a beast!
I don't think I've not heard you mention fishing the whole time
I got into x-country off trail hiking/exploring around your age in a quest to find great fishing lakes
Sounds like you got the bug
Altitude makes you euphoric 😂
5:57 was that a fish 🐟? In the waterfall, something passes by her feet to the right
It sort of looked like it, but going downstream like that is not normal fish behavior, it's more likely it was a chunk of bark or other debris
Easy peasy
