Silva's Outdoor Adventures
Hello There!
My name is Tina (trail name Silva) and along with Matt, my husband, are vlogging some of our hiking adventures! I also do a lot of solo hiking and backpacking. We live in Maine and have some spectacular mountains to hike here in Maine and all over New England!
I completed 657 miles of the Appalachian Trail going NOBO in 2021, 368 miles in 2023 and 331 miles in 2024 for a total of 1356 miles completed so far. I plan on returning to the AT in the spring of 2025 to complete the next section. I will be picking up where I left off and heading to Katahdin and vlogging my adventures.
I also have the goal of completing the New England 67 and have been slowly working on that list. There are 67 mountains total in New England that are considered 4,000 footers: 14 in Maine, 5 in Vermont and 48 in New Hampshire.
We talk about gear and sometimes tell a few stories while exploring the great outdoors.
New videos will be uploaded every Sunday, so come along on our adventures!

Quick update! Been on the AT for few days now and it’s been going good. I haven’t yet taken a zero or found good enough WiFi to upload. Videos may be delayed another week or so. Sorry for the delay but can’t be helped.

Hey Everyone! Last weekend I completed the MSG Trail End to End and videos will be out soon! It was tougher then expected but we had a great time! Working a bunch this week so it’s taking longer to recover and get the editing done. 😊

Hey Everyone!!! I hope you are all doing well! Just wanted to apologize for the delay in videos and delay in responding to comments. I unfortunately came down with Covid and was really sick the last few weeks. I am doing so much better and things are starting to return to normal. I will be getting back to gear videos and other videos as well as soon as I can. Next week one of my daughter's is getting married so a bit busy with that. So looking forward to getting back into the woods! I'll also be posting an update video soon. Hope you have a great weekend!

Hey Everyone!! Just wanted to let you know I did a very short 2.8 mile slack pack today to test out my ankle. I went really slow but it was amazing to be on trail. My ankle is a little sore but if it’s alright tonight I’m going to try a longer slack pack tomorrow. Maybe 6-8 miles depending on how my ankle feels later. Please keep all the positive thoughts and prayers coming. I really appreciate all of you!! It was a beautiful day!
