    Wow, quel beau trip quand même. Tes photos de nuit sont vraiment très belles. Vous avez bien fait de ne pas tenter le sommet. Vaut mieux être safe. La montagne sera encore là demain...

    Great awareness video. Way too many people ignore the dangers that are right in front of them. Mount Washington is no joke. Worst weathered mountain in the world. We hiked that mountain 5 times but only summited twice. Due to weather conditions. One time in the middle of August. Huntington ravine trail about 2000ft up. High winds came out of nowhere then rain, hail then snow. Had to turn back. When your mind and body tell you, no way. Best listen.

      There’s signs all over the White Mountains saying this is the worst weather in America. They’re not joking. Ive been up to Tuckerman Ravine snowboarding probably 5-6 times, I think I’ve only gotten to the ravine maybe twice because of the weather.

    Even though you didn't make summit, it was still one hell of a trip. Can't imagine how your legs felt having to walk most of that on your tip toes, speaks volumes to the shape you are in physically and mentally for that matter. As much as I love cold camping, I've never expeirenced it in the open (always been sheltered by a forest), let alone near the top of the mountain. I can only image the sense of freedom and serenity that comes with it. Thank you for sharing brother!

      Freedom and serenity yes but also very much feel like any small mistake and you’re toast. I’ve hiked the majority of the mountains up there. The presidential range is the most exposed dangerous and unforgiving year round.

    I did that trip back in winter 2018, your video makes me tired and cold all over again. Nice job. We went in summer of 2018 and it was one of the warmest days ever recorded and I think that may have been worse, not a cloud in the sky and barely any breeze, baked!

    RIP Christopher Roma. A very experienced hiker who perished in the Whites this week in brutal conditions. Know when to turn back, There's no shame in it and live to summit another day.. I'll be heading up to the whites next week to winter summit a high peak. If conditions are too bad I will sure be turning around. I hope this is a wake up call to all winter mountain hikers..

    It's the "deadliest mountain in North America" because there's a road to the top, shuttle busses to take you down, and a huge visitor complex at the summit. All that draws hundreds of thousands of visitors per year, and inevitably somebody among the masses has a heart attack on the way up, or some yahoo hikes up wearing shorts and a t-shirt in April.

      Those aren’t the ones who die, it’s skiers in Tuckerman, people who don’t have the skills and/or gear to be up there, and people who don’t realize that it can go from bluebird skies to whiteout in 15 minutes. The last time I hiked it was in mid-October 2015, below 0F wind chills at the summit, and Tuckerman/Lion’s Head was full of people in jeans & Cons with packs that barely looked like they’d hold a bottle of water and raingear.

      No it’s because of the insane weather. They get winds well over 100mph, they get whiteout conditions that’ll hit very suddenly and extremely cold temperatures. Compared to other mountains this place is crazy. And it’s not even just Mount Washington, it’s everywhere in the White Mountains. Just this January a triple crown hiker froze to death on the Pemegiwassett Loop. A 35 mile hike. It’s not just tourists it’s anybody caught unprepared.

    • @martymorissette
      @martymorissette  20 วันที่ผ่านมา

      This is a legal spot to camp. The rule is 2 feet of snow which doesnt look like it there but there was a really think layer of ice under that snow plus the accumulation. We had to take cover behind a spot that had been a bit more windespt then ideal but we needed to shelter in and it was getting sketchy of a condition so we also had to make the right call not to adventure back down in these conditions in the dark. I think the video conveys the challenge of the mountain and I've showed great respect to it.
