Chattahoochee National Forest, Bly Gap – North Carolina – January 31, 2015 This is a video of a January 31, 2015 backpacking trip to Bly Gap, North Carolina which is located just past the Georgia-North Carolina State line on the Appalachian Trail. It was the first time I’d been here in 20 years and it was great to be back. Northbound thru-hikers love this place because it marks the completion of the first of fourteen States on the A.T. And it was good to be back ….

Cross-Country Road Trip – June 29, 1998 This is the second of two cross-country road trips that I did in my younger years. In 1998, The Ox and I drove across the U.S. and Canada and spent 38 days exploring the Rockies, Cascades, and Pacific Northwest. This is a video slide show of the journey and it covers the interior of the U.S. that we missed two years earlier. We also dip in to Canada for a few weeks (to Alberta and British Columbia) which provided some of the best scenery of the trip. Runtime is 8 minutes, 37 seconds.
Cross-Country Road Trip – June 29, 1996 This is the first of two cross-country road trips I did in my younger years. In 1996, Mackie and I drove 17,000 miles and hit all four corners of the U.S. on a road trip that took us across the U.S. and Canada and spanned 65 days for me and 38 days for Mackie. This is a video slide show of the journey. 20 years later – this was one of the most memorable summers of my life. We are fortunate to live in a country with so many great places to see, and the best part is that you don’t need a lot of money to do it. You just need the time … or to make the time! Runtime is 6 minutes, 6 seconds.
Denali National Park, Zones 31 & 32 – Central Alaska – June 30, 1995
Appalachian Trail – April 10th to October 15th, 1994 (short film, ~5 min)
Appalachian Trail – April 10th to October 15th, 1994 (long file, ~40 min)
The slideshow clocks in at nearly 40 minutes (which is likely too long for most), and my kids tell me I sound a bit sad in the early narration. But be patient – things pick up as we close in on Katahdin. If nothing else, it’s a look back at the A.T. in the early 90’s before modern technology caught up with the Trail and when most hikers recorded their hike with a 35mm camera. If you want to see a day-by-day log of the hike, then click this link. Runtime is 38 minutes, 50 seconds.
