Miranda Goes Outside!!：I Recreated My First Backpacking Trip!

*Thank you to Garage Grown Gear for sponsoring this video! 12 years ago I embarked on my first ever backpacking trip - but it didn’t go according to plan. Now, all these years later, I have returned to White Oak Canyon in Shenandoah National Park to recreate my first backpacking trip and do it right this time. I have over a decade more experience, way better gear, and firm plan to finish this trail the way I originally intended 12 years ago!
