I am from New York, and now am in Northern New Jersey, so I don't get there nearly as often as I'd like to. I've watched this video probably three times now. It is amazing how you've captured the beauty, making it feel like we are there with you. The music is perfect; gentle as nature and, all that it entails is, and should be treated 😌❤.

    Wonderful Video ! Had great experiences (OK some not so great - Soaking weekends) doing my 46. Started in 1985; finished in 2010 (after driving up from NC). Never got certified. That's how I chose my TH-cam moniker, Anorthosite: It's the actual igneous rock type (not granite) that forms most of the Upper/Lower ranges. It's also what forms most of the Lunar crust. When you stand on top of Marcy, know that the rock under your feet formed 18 MILES beneath the surface, as the underpinnings of a Himalayan-scale range that formed more than a billion years ago. Remnants of the same, and related rock types, also outcrop more extensively to the north, in the Laurentian Mountains of eastern Canada. In surface outcrop, the Adirondacks connect to them via the Thousand Islands region. Since I was last there, there were numerous "fresh" rock slides in the High Peaks, from the hurricane that hit the region and New England several years ago.

    Great, great video. View from Haystack (3rd highest) is rated best view in the high peaks. You should do Algonquin, 2nd highest, easy day hike, incredible view of Marcy, Range, Colden, lakes below and all points north. 2nd rated view. Both are spectacular. In 1967 I took about 6 boys, started at Garden parking lot, and did Gothics, Saddleback, Basin and Haystack in one day. Came down Phelps trail. 20 miles. Weather was clear as a bell. 70 degrees late August. One of the best days of my life.

    Thanks for the fantastic video, it really captures the experience of the Devil's Path! >>I grew up in Hunter, and a few years ago undertook the apocryphal 'local challenge' to hike the entire 30-mile, 6-peak trail from Platte Clove to Mink Hollow in a single day, with my dad -- definitely an experience to remember! We began by ascending Indian Head for the sunrise and ended with groping our way down the northwest flank of Westkill after nightfall, with flashlights (the night comes on dangerously quickly in the mountains and we got our pacing slightly wrong)... pretty exhausting! Let's just say it makes a much nicer hike split into two or three legs, so you can take in the stunning scenery and not have to cram down sandwiches on the go! ⛰🏕⛰

    This was such a well put-together video. This brings back memories of when my dad brought my brother and I on our first backpacking trip. We stayed in Mizpah Springs and Lake of the Clouds huts, summited Washington, and left down Tuckerman's Ravine. Washington is known for its severe weather, but just like you guys, when we summited it was a beautiful cloudless day. It's really an otherworldly landscape - the alpine zone is so different from anything else you find in the northeast. Thanks for sharing your adventure with us.

    What’s all that squeaking?

    Isn’t there a decent trail up there? This looks perfect for snakes.

      Nope, there are only indecent trails and I died by snake bite on my ascent :(
