Thanks for the lovely video. The foreshadowing of the weather was a neat effect. I wonder if the Pine Marten was hired to keep the mice population under control over the winter. I'm sure it would like to meet up with that hare!
Nice! IDing the birdies too! Love it. I stayed there some time ago with the idea of doing the horrors of Owl's HEad from there. Left after breakfast, went down the very interesting Twin Brook Tr. to 13 Falls. When i got to the Slide, I saw I"d be very late for dinner and...turned back! 😆😆🙂
That sounds like a good path if you had more time or if it was one-way. I'd like to see 13 Falls and camp there. Not sure I ever need to see Owl's Head again but people tell me I will change my mind someday.
i love your channel! just had my Sunday breakfast while watching your latest adventure. I really need to stay at a hut sometime as it looks like fun. Maybe you could do a video on what to bring on a stay over? :) I love your jazz music you add, especially "Sunny San Franscisco", I have added to my own playlists. Have a wonderful day Rachel.
Wow this is a great comment because I've been wanting to this gear video and keep giving up and deleting my footage. I've been over-complicating it. Maybe this week I will keep it simple and just get it done! Thank you so much.
A new favourite hike for me. My wife was not with me for the overnight along the side of the trail, then to the summit of Galehead the next day, so I shared this this with my her. Thank you
What, no swim? Sorry I missed this hike when you first did, haven't been to Galehead but you have convinced me to add it to my list, hopefully before the snow flies!!
Another great hike Wow that sure is some extreme weather you had. Nice to see all that nice looking running water coming off the mountain. Here in Pennsylvania we are close to drought conditions. Very dry especially this early in the spring
Bugs, already? Well dang. We usually do a few weeks of trekking the Whites, spring and fall; this year we're late. FYI: The military jets you hear are likely using the special use military airspace called Yankee 1 and Yankee 2 MOA (Military Operating Area). It covers approx one-third of NH, from central to north, very roughly Plymouth to Littleton.
I love your videos! You inspire me to get out more! By the way, what hiking shoes are you wearing? They look kind of different! Thanks for another great video.
Altra Olympus shoes. My favorite ever (so far). Large toe box, zero drop "sneaker" but has a Vibram hiking rubber sole that grips rocks like Spider Man. Lightweight. Reg price expensive but you can find them 40 percent off several times per year. I wore heavy boots too many years and this is so much better. Must get the little gaiter too, which keeps pebbles and pine needles out.
Hi. Yes, I have all the worries but mostly when I am home. Once I am out there it feels just as safe/dangerous as everything else like driving a car, flying on a plane, going to the city alone. I do try to take safety steps to lower the dangers or plan for recoveries from unfortunate events. Also I tend to use common trails where I pass many people. I have communication with the husband frequently. And I sleep at the hut or near other campers, etc. The worry is the worst when I am home planning but getting out there feels mostly good with a shred of excitement and risk. Start with a low risk scenario and build up your comfort range.
A couple of years ago, my fiancée and I saw you in Moose Brook Park on your bike. We didn't know you were a RU-vid celebrity. Would you recommend another campground which is spacious and kind of private?
Hi - I wrote back on your other comment question for this one also, with a list. Always good to call them up because the campground staff can be very helpful and tell you things you didn't even think about asking!
