It's Fall at the White Mountains of New Hampshire | White Mountain National Forest

[@AmericasParks]

Actual hike begins at 3:07. Thanks for watching, my friends!

[@robertwidger6888]

At 72 I have been kicking around the Whites since I was 5 years old. I even went to college at Plymouth State just south of Franconia Notch and still live nearby. The views never get old!🥾⛷

[@AmericasParks]

You have good taste, Robert! Absolutely loved spending time in your neck of the woods!

[@kristalann1973]

Beautiful drone footage!🍁🍁🍁 As always thank you for sharing your awesome adventure!!

[@AmericasParks]

Really glad you enjoy them, Kristal!

[@chyup64]

Love your adventurous spirit. Inspiring me to get out there and explore!

[@AmericasParks]

Really encouraged to hear that, Maria!

[@joyceholland662]

Beautiful video of the views and your food review of Mad River Taverns has made us realize you do so well at hiking and food reviews! Glad you had a clear day we were at Mt Washington in September 2017 but didn’t get to summit due to fog. It was fun seeing your rendition of a gorgeous trip!!

[@AmericasParks]

Really enjoyed your kind comment, Joyce! Sorry to hear you weren't able to reach the summit of Washington.

[@nigesmitj9389]

So pumped for this i left the notification at the top of my phone all day lol so i wouldnt forget to watch thanks mate 👍.

[@AmericasParks]

Hey, really encouraged by your words! So thankful to know you are enjoying the channel!

[@jonathantitus2629]

For my money the White Mountains are the most scenic part of New England. Thanks for sharing your trip with us. I can always travel vicariously with you while I plan our next adventure.

[@AmericasParks]

Great to hear, brother! I kind of preferred the "Whites" overs the "Greens" - to me, just a little more spectacular and rugged.

[@alrichardson7027]

Hello America's Parks😊😊😊🍔🍔🍔🍰🍰🍰🍟🍟🍟🍕🍕🍕🍕, Randy this was magnificent!! The views where just amazing. I love the White Mountain National Forest and it's peaks. I have been waiting to see this video.

Check it out Randy...ohhh I can't forget...The Rainbow Bridge, National Monument😄😄😄. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍!!

Hey Al! Hope you are doing well, my friend! I wouldn't mind a fall trip to New England every year. Had such a great time!

[@joanreid2804]

Absolutely love your tours.

[@AmericasParks]

Really blessed to hear that! Thank you!

[@jameshouse1268]

Pastor Randy, two words-absolutely stunning! Sincere thanks for a beautiful video. Take care always 😊

Appreciate the warm words, James! Have a blessed week!

[@cooperstravels5725]

Great video, we'll be out there next October. Looking forward to it and now we have ideas of what to do. Thanks Randy!!

[@AmericasParks]

Great to hear! Hope to follow this one with two videos from the Green Mountains in nearby Vermont. Hope you enjoy your trip next fall!

[@kaylasmith1515]

"It's been a great day." That made me laugh. Glad you had a fun time, despite the rough start sleeping in the car.

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, Kayla!

[@Tesno56]

Hey we met you on the hike that day. My dog Enola is going to be famous now. Great video.

[@AmericasParks]

It was a pleasure meeting you! Thanks for the kind words and sharing your dog for the video! :)

[@rogerlevasseur397]

A most excellent hike to select to show!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks much, Roger! Enjoy your weekend!

[@NickandRachel]

Would love to do a hike in the White Mountains during peak season all those beautiful colors! That drone footage looked really good love all the reds that pop on the mountain! Glad that security guard showed up for you sleeping in a car sucks 😂

[@AmericasParks]

Good words, Nick! It was a great fall trip up in New England!

[@DestinationEarth]

I'm glad you were able to get into the campground. I know the van would be fine, but like you said, with everything else in there, I am sure it wasn't ideal. Ha! Still ended up in the van, lol. Looks like you made a new friend! Loving all the pops of color in the area.

[@AmericasParks]

Hey Josh, thanks for the kind words. Enjoy your weekend!

[@cookekdjr]

[@brianandchewiegohiking]

One of my favorite hikes ,Chewie and I love you the mountain hiking in NH ,we completed all the NH48 and about 35 of the 52WAV

[@AmericasParks]

Awesome accomplishments!

[@lesliesmith7835]

Thank you Randy for another absolutely beautiful adventure. I'm not sure if the sweet dog in the video was yours or not but he seems like a wonderful hiking companion. Your videos are always a blessing to many, many people.... Robin 🙏

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, Robin! Yes, a lot of people in the NE hike with their dogs. Most are unleashed. Ran into quite a few on the trails. Have a blessed week, brother!

[@jimbobxcityguy5338]

That Golden was mine. And she hikes year round and all across the USA where permitted. She's our 5th Golden over the years and she is a sweet heart as most thouobred Goldens are. White Mountain Dog laws are on leash or verbal control. She also has a Doggie door at home with 3 1/2 acres in the woods to live. Pet Safe electrc fence keeps here in the 3 1/2 acres. Live Free or Die here.

You are giving her such a lovely life. It would be great to see a video of her and you hiking. She should have her own channel. I wish you all the Best !!!... Robin 🙂

@@lesliesmith7835 They should live alot longer they they do. When they go they tear us apart. I love them more then many family members. Ha.

[@lesliesmith7835]

@@jimbobxcityguy5338 I agree Jim, the death of a family pet is a huge loss. Their unconditional Love and Loyalty is truly amazing. I always want to believe that our pets will be waiting for us on "Rainbow Bridge" when it's our time to leave this world.

[@xijiang2728]

Thumps UP! What a great day for hiking. Like how you review and rate the trail / hiking experience. That burger looks juicy and delicious. Hoping to check it out one day.

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate the kind feedback! Enjoy your weekend!

[@Chillaxing113]

What a nice man taking you directly to your campsite. Hopefully you got a good night's rest. What a beautiful park!

[@AmericasParks]

Was so thankful he showed up! Especially since it gave me access to the bathrooms/showers.

[@potatothorn]

was an interesting start hahaha/ glad you got to your site eventually/ Awesome views and looks like a really fun hike, beautiful time of year for the White Mountains thanks for taking us with you

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate that! Yeah, the trips never come easy. lol! Still a great time up in New England in the fall!

I even don't know how to speak English very well, I'm learning, my name is Alex, I'm an autistic guy from venezuela, my dream is know every America's national park and show it them to the world in my language, basically something similar to you but under my perspective, thank you so much for your videos bro, they're a window to the dreams of a lot of persons... Like me, you gave me hope.

[@AmericasParks]

God bless you, my friend! Great ambitions... may you be able to fulfill that great desire. Encouraged that you are finding my channel so inspiring!

My backyard! Also my favorite place on earth. Glad you finally made it here!!

[@AmericasParks]

Absolutely loved your home state! Thanks for the warm hospitality and of course, live free or die! :)

[@RobertLWard]

Love those fall colors! Nice to see you out enjoying a new area for you. Solo trip? Hahaha more camping issues! Fall is my favorite time of year. Especially when my team is playing in the NLCS

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, Robert! A lot happening on our end... look forward to catching up with your videos too!

[@RobertLWard]

@@AmericasParks Hope all is well bud. Figured is been busy for ya. Looking forward to seeing your comments on all my new clips. Whatever is occupying your time, you got it.

[@TravelSmallLiveBig]

Gorgeous views! We drove through this area on our way to Maine, but didn’t get any hikes in. Wow - that wind recorded 😳

[@AmericasParks]

Hi Heather! Absolutely loved New England in the fall! Hope you guys are doing well!

[@coastskyadventures2752]

Security coming to the rescue in the beginning. I noticed this happened to me in Florida. I had to go get a hotel on the fly. It all worked out but still. I hope next I take some more October hikes to get those beautiful fall color leaves in these state parks.

[@AmericasParks]

Keep up the traveling! Have a blessed Christmas!

[@birdman5223]

Yeah, I loved it there, beautiful forest...

[@AmericasParks]

Happy to hear that, Riley!

[@normiewoo787]

Spectacular! Should be a National Park.

[@AmericasParks]

Hey Normie, yes, the White Mountains are indeed up there in that discussion!

[@jeo33466]

So good! Here in Connecticut our autumn colors are starting to peak!

[@AmericasParks]

The area is so beautiful in the fall! Good colors when I was up there a few weeks ago, possibly a week before peak.

[@DanielPatterson34]

Awesome! 👌🏾

[@AmericasParks]

Really appreciate that!

[@michaelmccormick4522]

Was that your dog behind you as you reached the top of the mountain,or someone else’s dog you met on the trail? Great video as usual. Thanks!

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, Michael! Actually that was someone else's dog. Many hike with their dogs in the NE, most unleashed.

[@nigesmitj9389]

That looked like an unreal hike so beautiful those flat face rock looked like some mean calf burners 😅 thanks again 💚.

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks again! Yeah, the video didn't do that granite incline justice!

[@jacktherex9242]

How convenient! We're on a New England trip right now!

[@AmericasParks]

Great to hear... enjoy!

[@MagellanandGreyhound]

This is high on our list. So gorgeous and looks like you picked a great time of year. And ditto on campgrounds - usually they are much more accommodating. We tend to call ahead too if we plan to be late, but sometimes we’ve had no reception and it’s never been an issue.

[@AmericasParks]

Yeah, it was a great fall trip to the area. Hit Katahdin and Acadia in Maine, the WM and the the Green Mountains in VT. Highly recommended!

[@MagellanandGreyhound]

@@AmericasParks oh wow you strung together a lot. We’ve done Katahdin (obviously 😁) and Acadia as well. Acadia is one of our favorite parks. Will have to check out the Green mountains one day too

[@adventuringoutdoorswitheric]

Yeah that was pretty rough in the beginning not being able to get into your camp site. Wow will you look at those fall colors! You just came at the right time to do this hike obviously! Yeah those mountains do sound kinda small compared to what we have out here in the West but still I'm sure still challenging and fun none the less! Thanks for sharing your adventure brother.

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate that, Eric! Hope your week is off to a fantastic start!

[@jymnmeier3527]

Glad that gentleman came and rescued you from the parking lot :) The early fall colors are just stunning. We are very eager to explore that area. There is just something that draws my heart to the Northeast

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, Jymn! It was a simple, but wonderful trip to New England. Also hit Maine and Vermont. Hope you and the family are doing well!

[@elizabethpreviti598]

Great footage & music !

[@AmericasParks]

Really appreciate the kind words!

[@robertross2596]

Hi Randy! And just another great video from my favorite Nat'l Park KZbinr. Although I have only been to the White Mountains once in the Autumn, I must say you captured it's essence! I have been invited to the Vegas area for the Thanksgiving week & will finally get a chance to go to Death Valley (& perhaps Red Rock Canyon). As I will probably be doing Death Valley on a one day excursion, any input would be appreciated. Thanks, as per usual.

[@AmericasParks]

Appreciate the encouraging words, Robert! Have a great time in Death Valley - under-appreciated for its unique natural beauty. Hit as many of the stops noted on the park brochure. One day should be enough. Don't miss badwater basin. Try to catch a sunset from one of the higher viewpoints. Not sure if you caught my video from 2017 - all these places are highlighted. kzbin.info/www/bejne/poeWnnmBh5Wjfpo

[@robertross2596]

Thanks for tips Randy!

[@susannenerad9851]

Is that Cannon MTN you are climbing on here? I know it has a granted rock face

[@AmericasParks]

Not positive, but rather confident they are two different locations. Enjoy your week!

[@jimgreen5788]

The "toities" are much closer now than they were outside the gate. Good deal! Thank you, Lord.

[@AmericasParks]

Right on, Jim! Enjoy your week!

[@rodjohnon4950]

How do you avoid wild animal encounters?

[@AmericasParks]

For starters, I try to be aware of the possible risks. In most cases the only potential dangers are grizzly bears and big cats. In the few places where these bears roam, bear spray is a wise idea. As for the cats, encounters are very rare, especially when traveling in groups.

[@OutdoorsWithJohnUSA]

Randy, you choose a great place to hike and as usual you produced another great video. If you think the granite is challenging in September, try it in January! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hHqmfGWIjrZji9k

[@AmericasParks]

Thanks, John! Enjoyed reliving the experience through your video! Must have been a greater challenge in January. Excellent work!

Would love to help, but I'm far from an expert in this area. Just came to NH for a day and moved on.
