I was confused by Resolution which I found to be a very ironic name for the mountain. Did you find it hard to find the true peak??

@@scott7521 Honestly it's been so many years since I've last hiked it that I can't remember if we had that issue or not. Definitely agree with the irony of the name if that's the case!

Hey thank you for doing these videos of the New Hampshire’s 48! Wondering if you know of any books that can link a few of these on the list as this is next on my list to do after my (section) hike on the Appalachian Trail is completed (2/3’s done so far).
@GettsWild Жыл бұрын
Hey PM, thanks so much, I have fun making them! And the main book that I use for information on the 4,000 footers is called "The 4,000-Footers of the White Mountains" by Steven D. Smith & Mike Dickerman. There are also lots of forums that you can find where people discuss these hikes and how to connect many of them together. Most of the trails in the Whites connect and allow for endless backpacking opportunities. Hope that helps!

The mountains have a lot more to say than the jarring and discordant music that clashes with the meditative experience of being among them. Fortunately, I last hiked Garfield in peaceful silence back in the early 90s. But hats off to you for getting out there and showing the sights. Maybe I am getting old...

Last name of kynaston. Did your family hail from Shropshire England originally? If so you might Google sir Humphrey kynaston aka wild Humphrey. He was a highwayman akin to robin hood. Very famous. Outlawed after losing the family castle apparently murdered a man and had a pardon from the king after assisting with troops for a war ( if memory serves me it was Henry II) . direct descendant of the platwganet kings and queens. His sister was princess Diana's 14th great grandmother. Lots of history

Hey Mike, at the time of me filming this drones were just starting to become mainstream and the laws were not concrete yet. Since then drones are prohibited from being flown anywhere along the Appalachian Trail, which part of this loop includes. I am unsure of what laws have been passed since, but I'm sure you could find out through some quick Googling. Hope that helps!

Your video brought back wonderful memories. Mt. Lafayette was my first major hike. I spent a whole summer day on the trail with friends, using the Greenleaf Trail to reach the summit. We had a fun time, though by the end I was exhausted, with my legs and feet feeling like jelly due to the steep ascent. Nevertheless, I’ll never forget how amazing it was to take in the serenity of the White Mountains at such a high altitude.

Each dog is different, but Dexter's paws are fine unless there's snow and ice. For winter conditions I use Mushers Secret to protect his paws, and you could use that in the summer too if you wanted. In the summer, the heat is a bigger issue since he's long haired and doubled coated. Just need to make sure they get enough rest, water, and monitor them. Otherwise, enjoy the hike, it's fantastic!

A generation lost to junk music, admiring a view of a ski area. Then the ass pulls out his peace destroying drone, which are not allowed for good reason last I checked. (Had I been there, you'd lose the drone, son.) Kid shows poor hiking skills, experienced hikers will bring gloves to wear to scramble over rocks. The summit of E Osceola is not exciting in this vid, because the vid is poor. He gets to a summit in poor style and proceeds to film his processed food products, with the shittiest music. Tragic indeed.
