    Another great video Walter. I live 80 miles north on the Hudson from Storm King Mountain. I've been by the mountain many times, but have never hiked there. So...thanks for taking me along with you on this adventure. By the way, Storm King Mountain is considered by many as the birth place of the environmental movement in the United States. Consolidated Edison Power wanted to pump water to the top of Storm King several decades ago and create a huge hydropower operation. Many law suits later, ConEd lost and the Storm King Mountain conservation efforts resulted in much of America's environmental law and policy. Keep on hiking!

      Appreciate that insight thank you. I did read a bit about that the night before I set out to do the hike, but I didn't really have a full grasp or understanding of the significance of what happened there. I should have included a reference to this important information in the video. Hopefully your comment will be read by others.

    Watching this video a year after you made it. It makes me realize what a real legacy you leave by creating these beautiful videos and documenting these stuning locations. Thanks for taking me along.

    I grew up in Newburgh and my friends and I use to do overnights on top of Storm King. This was back in the late 80's. I haven't been up there since but I plan on taking a trip back up this summer.

    • @WALTERZOLNA
      @WALTERZOLNA  ปีที่แล้ว

      That sounds like it must have been some great memories, I hope you make it back up there this year, best of luck!

    I agree, we do have some of the most beautiful views and overlooks that don't always get the recognition they deserve. Thanks for sharing ~ Tracee

    • @WALTERZOLNA
      @WALTERZOLNA  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      As they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and I find tremendous beauty when I look out over the ancient weathered hills of our Eastern landscapes... Appreciate the comment Tracee, thankyou.

    Another great spot, we’ll have to check that out. Never been hiking that far up in NY, the farthest I’ve been was Bear Mountain 👍

    • @WALTERZOLNA
      @WALTERZOLNA  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Its a very cool hike, lots of good views, and very reasonable for a family to do, with a touch of adventure do to some of the rock scrambles and open areas. Thanks for watching and commenting Eva, I appreciate it so much!

    Another video for popcorn, as always you capture an atmosphere that is difficult to create artificially. 😊🎥🎥

      Appreciate you Ervinslens, thankyou so much, I'm flattered that you continue to support my channel, thankyou!

    Great video Walter! I totally agree that the east coast has its own beauty and is a joy to explore!

    • @WALTERZOLNA
      @WALTERZOLNA  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks Jeff. Hopefully someday I will have the ability to travel more extensively, but until then I am more than content with seeing everything that I can here in our neck of the woods!

    Fantastic video as always, Walter! You know I dig my overlooks and this was packed with them. Really good stuff, man! 🙌

    • @WALTERZOLNA
      @WALTERZOLNA  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Appreciate that Hiker Dude Dad. I think that's one of the real advantages New York has over Pennsylvania. Many viewpoints and vistas and they are spectacular. The best thing for me is that getting to this region of New York for me is easier to get to than much of central and western Pennsylvania.

    Can you give us the Gps address to the parking lot? ❤

      @WALTERZOLNA  ปีที่แล้ว

      Unfortunately i dont have that, but if you search Storm King Trailhead Parking Lot, 1750 Rte 9W, Cornwall, NY 12520 - that should take you right to it!
