Gear list: What was I carrying in hot weather on the Appalachian Trail?

This video shows what I was carrying when I stepped off the trail in early August, in the heat of summer. Temperatures held in the mid 90's with high humidity. I was low on energy and needed to lighten my load, so I went minimalistic! In 2018 I made the choice to try something huge. Something much bigger than me, something I had dreamed of but never really believed I could accomplish. In 2019 I tried again.....I got closer to my ultimate goal, but still fell short. My goal? To hike the entire length of the Appalachian Trail in one season. That's 2,200 miles on what is considering the most difficult hiking trail in the United States. What a journey! Such an adventure! I'm not done yet. I didn't hit my target (Mount Katahdin in Maine) but I DID NOT FAIL because it's IMPOSSIBLE TO FAIL at an attempt! I'll be trying again, but not until I have taken steps to improve my odds of finishing next time, and I'll be bringing you along for the ride. Why? Because I want YOU to chase your dreams too! We'll do this together! Whatever goal has eluded you, join me in taking action! You are never too old to live your best, authentic life!

These videos are my answer to the people who told me: —I’ve ALWAYS WANTED to play the saxophone but never had time to learn... —I’d LOVE to backpack through Europe but it’s too late now... —I WISH I were brave enough to skydive! It looks so fun, but I can't…. —Go back to college at MY age? It’s NOT WORTH IT now…. —I’d love to climb a mountain, but I’m TOO OLD. It breaks my heart to know that people have dreams that are ignored or pushed aside, to hear a person express a longing they feel they’ll never be able to satisfy…. To these people I say…. PLEASE TRY! The reasons I should NOT hike the Appalachian Trail are overwhelming, but I need to try. I can at least do that. I hope you'll cheer for me because I can't do this without YOU.
