It’s Part Three of my John Muir Trail series, and in this hiking vlog, I start before Devil’s Postpile, resupply at Red’s Meadow Resort and take a quick trip into Mammoth Lakes, camp past Red Cones, hike Silver Pass, and camp in the rain. I discuss how I plan my schedule while on the hike and why I don’t love every day on trail. Come hike with me!

What is Road Trip Brew-S-A?
To challenge myself and live life to the fullest, I am trying to reach all 50 US states while living in my minivan. In each state, I will
•go on an outdoor adventure
•get involved in a good cause
•drink a local beer

What is Beer in Beautiful Places?
Hi, I’m Maddie! Celebrating an outdoor adventure with a beer has been a long-time tradition for me, and I wanted to create a platform for like-minded folks to come together. In my videos, I cover all types of adventures and review beer! Topics include day hiking, kayaking, travel, thru-hiking, and life on the road. In short, if you would describe yourself as an outdoorist, outdoorsman, outdoorswoman, hiker trash, nomad, or dirtbag, come on along, this is the channel for you! Welcome and cheers!

  1. Awe I was tearing up hearing you talk about tearing up reading the comments! I'm glad it was uplifting. Also HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

  2. Happy Birthday Maddie! I’m sure you made the right choice on not killing yourself to get to Mt Whitney on your birthday.

  3. Amazing Maddi. 17 is quite the accomplishment 👏, especially with false summits which can be so discouraging. I too have learned that energy levels can vary so so much from day to day. HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO YOU. Just awesome scenery, thanks for sharing

  4. Good seeing you live last night. I did send the venmoe last night. Let me know if you get it.

  5. It's amazing how she's basically producing an entire show from her van and on the road with no production company supporting her. No orders to Starbucks while editors work on the footage. Or the host films then goes to his hotel. She's ACTUALLY doing it, then showing us and it looks very, very good. As a person who enjoys film making, I have to say, kudos 🙂 I can't imagine editing while on road. All hot. Lol. I'm so friggin proud of you friend

  6. Happy birthday Maddie, you rock! Thanks for another fantastic video. To be honest I get a bit bored with videos exclusively about vans, yours combine, real camping, hiking, backpacking and a van which is a lot more exciting. Hope you made a wish on your birthday and everything comes true. Lots of Lodge Pole Pines but you can see the dead trees many dead due to the drought and Bark Beetle, watch out for widow makers when setting the tent specially with the rains.

  7. Whether or not you get to do it on your birthday, it is incredible what you are doing and to spend you last days of your 20s and the beginning of your 30s is such a great thing to look back on!!

  8. Don't put so much pressure on yourself. Enjoy the hike and I hope you have a great birthday! You're amazing!

  9. Maddie , you are rocking it . Stay strong young lady , you are an inspiration . Just think when you're done with the JMT you can have a deserved beer or 2 .

  10. Maddie don't be so hard on yourself, you are doing fantastic!! Things do not always go as planned. However, you always seem to think thru your situation and recover/regroup quickly. I have told you before you are such an inspiration to me and many others. So proud of you. Safe travels and looking forward to part 4. Cheers🍻💜⛰

  11. That’s kinda a bummer that it doesn’t seem as fun and adventurous as the guy on front of that pineapple chicken pack but it’s these hard times that you push through that you will look back on and be the proudest of yourself. Plus you inspire a bunch of us to push ourselves harder to accomplish our goals. I really enjoyed watching 🤙

  12. I'm watching this video in my tent in a t-storm @gooseberry on the SHT
    I kinda know how you feel. But it's about enduring.
