    Talking NEW VIDEO: Walking North - With The World's Greatest Hiker - Part 7 (HD)

    This is the next episode of my Long Trail hike documentary.

    On this trip I am fortunate to share the trail with Dutch, from dutchwaregear.com. During the spring and summer of 2015 Dutch and I got to know one another (from many an order I placed) and we decided it would be fun to spend some time on the Long Trail together. We take off on what was meant to be a 4 day, 5 night 57 mile adventure. By mid-day on day 2 I injured my knee and we ended up deciding to come off trail. Join along on this hike as we climb up, down, over and around many an obstacle.

    Thanks for watching,

    Rob

    Wow! That was an awesome video Rob. Thanks a lot for sharing. I know it was a lot more working trying to video. Great views. Also, I didn't picture Dutch that way!? Tights...really? Just kidding . Wore them biking for thirty years.
    Thanks again.

    Very nice Rob! Fantastic views even in the fog. Filming while negotiating a ladder, always fun. Karl could have helped "The World's Greatest Hiker" with the "World's Not So Greatest Mustard". Rock scrambles are rough going. Thanks for sharing this.

    The great mustard incident of 2015 - we still laugh over that. Thanks for the note and watching.

    Thanks for sharing. Ive got my wife on board to let me section hike the LT so these videos have been great for helping plan the trip.

    Great video and it looks like a trail from hell. Are you hiking or mountain climbing? But still looks like fun.

    Nice video and thanks for sharing. Your attitude was impressive with that rough looking trail. My 55 year old knees couldn't take that terrain any longer. Did both of you come off the trial or did Dutch continue on? That trail doesn't look like one that you would want to solo on. Keep up the good working on the videos and thanks again for sharing.

    Those tights make Dutch a very aerodynamic hiker. Hard to keep up with his dashing visage. His trail stories are priceless.

    Great fun Rob. Thanks for sharing.

    But. . . .
    That "Worlds Greatest Hiker" stuff is in danger of giving Dutch "The Worlds Biggest Head!"
