    Love your channel and the Art Loeb trail. You're not too far from the Linville Gorge. I definitely recommend thru hiking the Linville Gorge for one of your future adventures. Best views in NC (in my opinion)

    Thanks for this video. I just got back from there two days ago. We didn't know about the bear canisters until we there. Few places to hang food either. We got lucky. Had a dog too. Seen many bears over the years, but never with a dog present. Hiked with my Mattie for 14 years. Except in the Smokies, but for once. A fine fixed me on that. Anyway, this is really cool.

    • @HikingwithBraids
      @HikingwithBraids  Před 3 lety

      I think they just very recently required them. I didn't see any bears on trail though.

    This was the very first place I went backpacking...in early April. We camped at Shining Rock and woke up to 6 inches of snow on the ground! It's so breathtakingly beautiful here. It will always be a favorite!

  • @ChicaandSunsets

    So beautiful! Reminiscent of the Roan Highlands don't you think. Now this is on the bucket list.
    Glad you are getting out, and with a friend. 👍😀🐢🐇

  • @Hobomountainwander
    @Hobomountainwander Před 3 lety

    Another one of my favorite trails and I did it last August. You made it further than I did the first day, but it was wet and rainy. That junction was a little confusing for me too. And I loved the Shining Rock Wilderness.

  • @flowerpower1980
    @flowerpower1980 Před 3 lety +2

    Very excited to see your hike. I just did it a few weeks ago with my hiking girlfriends. We also did 3 days/2 nights. Whew! It kicked my butt! But it is has the most beautiful views! Curious to see if it was cold at Black Balsam. We camped down in the pine forest just below and froze!

    • @beeveedee9355
      @beeveedee9355 Před 3 lety

      Curious if it's better to do this trail nobo or sobo...

    • @flowerpower1980
      @flowerpower1980 Před 3 lety

      We did it Nobo to Sobo….about a thousand feet less elevation that way!

  • @beeveedee9355
    @beeveedee9355 Před 3 lety

    I was just on Black Balsam a week ago! One of my fave places. I'd like to do the whole Art Loeb Trail one of these days.

    Was wondering about this trail

  • @pommom1224
    @pommom1224 Před 2 lety

    Love your videos! You and I backpack in many of the same areas! I wish I had your on-camera charisma lol! Any chance you saw a memorial/cross on the trail in this first section? Possibly near the Narrows? I’ve been meaning to go back here to find it but just haven’t gotten the chance. Happy trails!!

  • @HankOutdoors8052
    @HankOutdoors8052 Před 3 lety +2

    They are a lot of up and down elevation gains but you can do it it is a hard trail but they are some great views

  • @rosemarymcleod4074
    @rosemarymcleod4074 Před 3 lety

    What town in North Carolina is that trail near? The views are spectacular where you are camping. So glad your back on trail.

  • @bethfrank1981
    @bethfrank1981 Před 3 lety +1

    Love your videos 👍❣️. What is the name of your snack ?

  • @shadowleep
    @shadowleep Před rokem

    Water stop at 3:20 is where you got the poison ivy.

  • @shananigans_outside
    @shananigans_outside Před 2 lety

    What brand nut seed bars? That snack sounded good.

  • @charlottedunlay4397
    @charlottedunlay4397 Před 3 lety

    I know it's too late, but the greenery by your first water source is mostly poison ivy. Hope you didn't get any rash when you brushed up against it when you were drinking.......ouch!

    • @HikingwithBraids
      @HikingwithBraids  Před 3 lety

      I think the way the camera is set up makes it seem as if I was walking in it but where the water was I didn't notice it, but luckily I was rash free lol

  • @DottieandJudy
    @DottieandJudy Před 3 lety

    I’m getting ready to do this trail. What time did you get into camp the first day? What was your average speed?Always love following your adventures! Thanks!!

  • @adventureswithdogs2251
    @adventureswithdogs2251 Před 3 lety +1

    At the 16:50 mark, did you get yelled at for showing Dusty brushing her teeth?
    Beautiful day, great views, and a steep, but scenic trail. The only thing that could make it any better would be a dog by my side. Guess I'm biased in that regard, though...

  • @WE-mr8bu
    @WE-mr8bu Před 2 lety

    Should tell us where are location wise at spots on trail

  • @amyjohiker540
    @amyjohiker540 Před 3 lety

    Great video and hike. Do you use a stabilizer when you’re filming?

  • @ssam143
    @ssam143 Před 2 lety

    Did you get a poison Ivy rash on this trip?

  • @robertdean1579
    @robertdean1579 Před 2 lety

    Poison ivy there by that water source...

  • @stevenvarner9806
    @stevenvarner9806 Před 3 lety

    That plant next to your first water source looks like poison ivy. I hope that's not what you were brushing up against when you were getting water in the bag.

    • @HikingwithBraids
      @HikingwithBraids  Před 3 lety

      I try to avoid it as much as possible but I haven't gotten a rash since the one on the AT. 🤞

    • @tomt9543
      @tomt9543 Před 3 lety

      That’s exactly what I thought!

  • @tamasmaksza6450
    @tamasmaksza6450 Před 3 lety

    Look like you were standing in poison ivy filling your water....

  • @roselee_explores
    @roselee_explores Před 3 lety

    I can’t wait to do this! Were there any water sources between Cold Mountain & Black Balsam?

    • @HikingwithBraids
      @HikingwithBraids  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes there's quite a few except coming off of Black Balsam.
