After much delay, I have finished our slideshow from the 2,189 miles on the Appalachian Trail. I know 12 minutes is infinite time in the internet world. But, if you’d like to see, here’s our experience in pictures on the AT.

 

It just about brings me to tears every time I watch it (which is far too frequently). We are beyond stoked to start the Pacific Crest Trail in April.

Cheers!!

Day 15: Today I want to give #thanks to my fellow travelers, bloggers, and hiker trash 💻👣🌎 ▫️ When I wanted to start traveling, I used blogs as a major part of my trip planning. I relied on other adventurers' first hand experience they had detailed on social media and blogs. Reading their experiences made me think - "If they can do it, why not me?" I remember using Nomadic Matt's blog when I searched for details about traveling through Central and South America and blogs from The Trek to learn more about long distance hiking. Actually, the whole reason why I started blogging was to help others begin a travel journey of their own. ▫️ So, thank you, to all the #backpackers out there that take the time to write out the details of their adventures!! It's because of you that I had the courage to explore on my own 👣🌲🗻🌎 ▫️ #22DaysofGratitude #givethanks ▫️ Pictured: Me at #Xunantunich ruins in #Guatemala 2014 just beginning a five month trip in Latin America having no idea what I was doing #tbt 💜 ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ @nomadicmatt @thetrek.co #nomadicmatt #thetrek #travel #adventure #explore #blogger #blog #bloggerlife #backpacking #hikertrash #hiker #mayanruins #guatemala #centralamerica #travelonabudget #seetheworld #goexplore #wanderlust #girlslovetravel #womenwhotravel #womenwhoexplore
Day 14: I'm so thankful for our forests. 🌲🌲🌲 ▫️ Being surrounded by #trees is one of my favorite feelings in the world. Even looking at these pictures made me breathe deeper and put my mind at peace. When I'm in the city, the #forests are what I miss the most. In many ways, I feel more at home among the trees. I'm so glad there are so many beautiful, protected forests in this country where I can escape. ▫️ #22DaysofGratitude #givethanks ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ @u.s.forestservice #bethankful #begrateful #intothewoods #treehugger #ilovetrees #hugatree #thewoods #travel #adventure #explore #optoutside #rei1440project #hitthetrail #letsgooutside #backpacking #hiking #hikingaddict #hikingadventures #nature #naturelovers #nature_lovers
Day 13: Today I wanted to thank all the artists out there that make our world so colorful 🎨 ◻ We love seeing cities brought to life with big #murals and sculptures. We've spent countless hours staring at paintings in museums and music festivals. I have many friends that work in the art industry whether that's painting, graphic design, photography, etc. I've witnessed their struggle as an artist, and I just wanted to say thank you for doing what you do. Your hard work is so appreciated ❤🧡💛💚💙💜 #22daysofgratitude #givethanks ◻ ◻ Psst.. the #pyrography piece in the second picture was a gift from my incredibly talented friend Miranda. Check out more of her stuff here --> @mirandart217 ◻ ◻ #grateful #thankful #art #artislife #art_spotlight #artwork #art #artlover #artoftheday #streetart
Day 12: As #wildfires are raging in California, I wanted to say a huge thank you to all of the brave firefighters that serve this nation. While civilians run away, #firefighters run towards dangerous situations to protect and rescue those in peril. We've seen the devastation caused by wildfires as they have ravaged our forests, and I can't imagine the pain people are going through now that have lost everything. ◽ To our firefighters, we thank you and applaud your valiant efforts. ◽ #22DaysofGratitude #givethanks
Day 11: Today I wanted to thank my many friends, family members, and every other brave person who has served my country, made countless sacrifices, and defended the rights of myself and fellow citizens. I recognize that I come from a country with many privileges compared to others around the world, and I wouldn't have the life I do without the people that defend my rights. ◽ Thank you for all that you've done and continue to do. Happy Veteran's Day 🇺🇸 ◽ #22DaysofGratitude #givethanks
Day 10: I wouldn't be who I am today without the #trails I'm lucky to have walked. These paths don't create and maintain themselves, so today I wanted to give thanks to the creators, coalitions, and volunteers that bring these trails to life. We've crossed volunteer maintenance groups while they're hard at work clearing blowdowns, making paths for water runoff, moving rocks to build stair steps, or creating entirely new sections of trail. Frankly, I'm blown away by their hard work. Their time and effort has shaped my life in many ways, and I'm so grateful for their back breaking labor. 🌲🗻🌎 ◽ Thank you so much to the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, the Pacific Crest Trail Association, and the Continental Divide Trail Coalition. We'll be back for maintenance one of these days to return to favor. ◽ #22DaysofGratitude #givethanks ◽ ◽ ◽ ◽ @appalachiantrail @pctassociation @cdtcoalition #thruhike #thruhiker #hitthetrail #PCT #pacificcresttrail #appalachiantrail #Continentaldividetrail #CDTC #backpacker #backpacking #in2nature #rei1440project #optoutside #gooutside #triplecrown #hiker #hiking
