It's always a bummer to orphan a mountain in a range, but sometimes it's better to make that difficult choice and enjoy the trip. What have been some mountains that you've orphaned for the sake of safety and/or fun?
Believe it or not in all of my hiking I have never orphaned anything. Brittany and I are way too stubborn and will, and have pushed through tremendous amount of pain to finish what we started.. Although we did pull up to the trail head for sleeping beauty and Erebus doing the lake George 12 winter round once and there was literally 2 feet of fresh powder and -20 at the trail head with no wind. Soooo we left LOL didn’t feel like starting it that day. 11 miles of trail breaking for two Lake George hikes? Nahh lol
You two are animals -- and I mean that as a compliment! I've watched you guys pull off some amazing feats of determination on your channel!
Had to orphan Grace peak when I had Dix, Hough, Macomb, and South Dix on the bag... Hurt like hell to abandon her.
@@nickviviano4486 Yea -- it's a bummer to get out there on the ridge and not be able to visit all of the summits, but like Dan said in this video -- it's just another opportunity to get out there for another awesome day!
I hope you earned your 46 ADK patch. I am a big fat guy who lose 45 pounds over the 18 month from continous walking. So I find you as an inspiration for fellow big guys. I grew up in Lake George. I moved to the North Carolina Piedmont. The North Carolina mountains are steeper than the Adirondack Mountains, but the trails lack all the Adirondack rocks, I watch your video because of homesickness. Keep interviewing your friends because it makes more interest.
Jay-- can one bike the blueberry trail to the Seymour turnoff?
I'm honestly not sure if it's "allowed" but the trail is definitely traversable by a bike ;)
I like calling them the Sewers. It rained the entire time I hiked S/D/E. Such a miserable death march and I was solo. Also, I love all rock scrambles!! Great campsite too! Great video 😊
Can’t wait to hike with you guys again. But without Findley lol
The scrambles were my favorite part of the hike! I'm actually looking forward to heading back out there in the summer to pick up Seward and Seymour --- we'll likely do Donaldson and Emmons again because John needs them!
And yes! Definitely need to get a hike together in the books again -- had a great time on our last one!
@@JayMorrisonOutdoors I want to get the “Sewers” lol this winter as an overnight if I can. Fingers crossed 🤞🏻
Good luck! I'm not sure I'm interested in my W --- other than the severe lack of people out there, anyway ;)
@@JayMorrisonOutdoors it’s so quiet and beautiful. As long as you have your layers and gear dialed in it’s an incredible experience.
...colab winter overnight.....lol
I love the idea of colab winter overnight...
Hook a brother up to a link to that interview on the 46 of 46?
th-cam.com/video/gl54FJJaRt0/w-d-xo.html lol never mind I found it
Here's the episode I was on for the 46of46 podcast:

Great hike. I wish I could trust my dog not to run off after any Tom, Dick or squirrel. But I think she needs more training.
Yea, this was a very awesome hike! I'm pretty excited to head back out there in 2021 to grab Seward and Seymour!
@@JayMorrisonOutdoors I have no doubt that you will get it done
Ha ... you guys had to eat like hobos... see what happens when you go into the woods without me
I was fat and happy, so it wasn't that big of a deal -- but the trip was missing that little "extra" for sure!
Yes!!!!!!!!! I cannot wait to watch this. I will be soon to comment again as soon as I do!! I really enjoy watching you get into the high peaks!!
Hope you enjoy it!
I just found and subbed. I look forward to supporting the content.
Thank you - welcome to the community!
On that mud bog going over to Emmons we did it in torrential down pouring rain and we had our five finger toe vibram water shoes on. We went straight through the center and I had Mud go past my knee. Pretty funny you should check out that log if you want to laugh at how deep that mud was
LOL
"Vanna Dan" & "Iron John" only a matter of time to figure out a hiking name for Mark! Nice hike and video.
LOL thanks!
Love it!! When did you guys hike this? Also, what trailhead did you start at?
Thanks! This was a trip we took in mid-September, and we started from the Corey's Road trailhead.
Another great video. Enjoyed it. I was planning to do that same range a few weeks ago but ended up someplace different instead. Keep up the videos.
I hope you still had a great trip! Thanks for watching!
Good hike there. Take care.
Thanks - you too!
34 high peaks so far is a great achievement. To orphan a peak is not something to be ashamed of. It is just another reason to get back out there and have some fun. It is true, as you say, about the ADK 46r rules. We also have similar set that apply to the #SB6K challenge that I am working on.
Yea, we're making progress! And I really enjoyed that area of the Adirondacks, so I'm definitely looking forward to heading back out there to pick up what we missed! I had to look up the SB6K - I didn't realize there were so many high peaks in Southern Appalachians - that's incredibly awesome ...
Thanks for the adventure while I'm on my treadmill! Really makes the time go by!
That's such an awesome idea how to get some exercise AND watch videos at the same time ... Excellent!!
Not only is it good exercise but it gives me an idea of what the trail is going to be like when I hike it. I really do appreciate your videos brother! Thank you
@@jasonmathews1685 thank you very much!
Hey Jay, you think that is long lake?
If only there was a way to find out ... ;)
When we did that range we left Seward for another day as well. Our hike was nothing but mud as that the was year they received a ton of rain. In fact, a week after we did D & E, that trail all the way to the lot was a river and un-hikable. Are those poles that Dave is using ones that he made? I've never seen hiking poles with tops like his.
Yea -- Dave custom made those tops because he likes the way they help/support him climbing down --- they're super sturdy.
Just long leki trekking polls heavily modified on the tops with crafter's wooden balls and a racing bicycle handlebar grip tap down the sides. The wide balls on the top make then very comfortable and steady when stepping down steep areas of trail.
@@dii454 Very cool David
