    You have a large group of people rooting for you every step of the way. Nothing wrong with taking a few extra breaks. Cooler weather awaits you.
  • @jhayft0703
    Don’t quit Molly!! You will get cooler weather soon! We are all rooting for you!
  • You'll catch up soon when the cooler temperatures come, hang in there. One step at a time.
  • @GregBennett-e2k
    I agree, Mojo, the heat of summer was the most difficult challenge of the AT.
  • @Finally35
    Don't You Quit. I live in New England and the 90 degree days will stop soon. Hang tough the temp's will improve.
  • @jeannenimmo5
    Hope the heat and humidity moderate. If you take enough ZEROs, the weather will surely cool down - lol. The little slack-pack-flip-flop is a good idea - there's a bit of a pot of gold at the end of that rainbow(A/C, a real bed and food for a second night). Be well, stay safe. 🥾
  • @Jacqueline4636
    Just a couple more days of extreme heat Mojo. You’ll be back to hiking more miles soon. Thank you for sharing as always.
  • @1024Pete
    Cheers to a plan B to adapt to the heat. Good thinking. Kudos to your success of the day. Thanks for your update, determination and fortitude. Much appreciated. Wishing you success, safe passage, and mighty fine hiking. Happy Trails!
  • @tgrant74
    Y’all are doing good. Just don’t run over Ziggy on the trail cause he is carrying a few more years than you.😁 Glad you reunited with other hikers. Be safe!!
  • @barbararall5498
    I really admire your fortitude. I’m subject to heat exhaustion so I would have to be sitting these high temperature days out. I know you are probably further along than Connecticut and I will say the past four or five days here in NJ have been in the 80’s which is a relief after all those very hot 90 degree days. I’m hoping you are experiencing the same. Slack packing is a great idea. Before you know it, you’ll be in VT and NH. And it will be cooler. Holding you and Ziggy in my thoughts. Keep on hiking!
  • @RickINFJ
    It's frustrating knowing what you're capable of, but circumstances won't facilitate. We had to adjust at work during the triple H's. Us Mainahs just weren't built for that kind of heat. Love your plan to slack SOBO back to the inn. Stay cool ✌️
  • @mnewman1469
    It is currently 54° at the summit of Mt. Washington. Cooler temps are coming! Higher elevations of New Hampshire await. Rooting for you and Ziggy every step.
  • @Barkdack1
    So glad you got to meet Heather and Chuck, I have been following them the whole time on the AT and the way some of your videos I had a feeling you guys might cross paths they're a nice couple to watch and you and Ziggy as well.
  • @edithchacon1522
    You’ll soon find easier weather again, even though it’s much more difficult in the heat you’re doing fine, keep hiking❤
  • Funny just a 118 days go you where blistering cold 🥶 and now your burning up. Think back to tho times when you where freezing 🥶 that should work 😅. Keep up the good work. Mighty fine hikeing 🤩
  • @burningbeard9478
    sorry about the heat, humidity and bugs but I'm glad you didnt rush through my beautiful home state....no mystery why I moved to Oregon...P.S don't tell anyone about our great dry summers...lol...keep on keeping on...I'm sure already in VT or NH by now...its gorgeous ya?
  • @nashua03064
    I live in New England and this heat and humidity sucks the life out of you.
  • @yogimoosehiker
    Hope you’re finding enough water sources and supplementing with electrolytes. 😊
  • @stacymcmahon453
    I have to hand it to you for persevering through the heat. Between you and a couple other through-hikers I'm following, I think doing a flip-flop and taking a break in July-August sounds like my plan if I do the AT.
