My family and I went picnicking and swimming there along with camping. that was more than 40 years ago. There was only one trail around the two lakes. So much change in in those 40 years. Nice to see. Thanks for sharing.

@GoingNoWhereFast Месяц назад

That is awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Always a Thumb's Up for all of your videos, Rick!! I finally figured out that Akela is a Roosevelt breed.. bark softly, and carry a big stick!!

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Thanks 👍 But I don't think he barks softly. When we get deliveries, my neighbors know! Thanks for the comment Pete

@billramsey7455 10 месяцев назад

That place is beautiful. But we're just waiting for you to finish playing around up north. And get back down here in the south 😂😂😂. I enjoyed the video as always. Good job, stay safe, and GOD BLESS and protect you always 🙏

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

@billramsey7455 We are working on it. Now we have to get this Wolf Pup Modified, Solarized, and Akela-nized and we are ready to be all over the area again!!

Nice!! My dog once showed up with a whole deer leg bone. Tried to put it in the back of my van. Lol

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

That's a prize find! And you wouldn't let him!?!? lol Great Comment !

@superpoint43 10 месяцев назад

I live a few miles away and spend a lot of time hiking the trails at Green Lakes. Love the park but it does get crowded, especially the campgrounds. The tick situation hasn't changed at all after several years of sharpshooters thinning the deer herd. The Erie Canal is just as bad as far as that goes (along with the rest of the state).

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Ya, I suspected so. The ticks really get their start on the squirrels, chipmunks, and small animals before the adults start climbing onto deer. Really need a lot more owls, hawks, and snakes !

@LoveMtDulcimerMusic 10 месяцев назад

Congratulations - father/father-in-law! Thanks for all the parts of the video. Don’t think I have ever seen some of those fungi. Akela looked so proud carrying that extra long limbo stick.

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

He Loves finding a good stick!! Thanks for stopping by! Have a great weekend!

@Bhill-jo2wg 9 месяцев назад

Love your videos. especially ny ones. Hope your back in 2024. Thanks again .

@GoingNoWhereFast 9 месяцев назад

Thanks, We will be back in 2024, I miss NY a lot, especially the snow! (Maybe not the cold, but its been colder here in NC than up there in NY)

@cathychamberlin9451 10 месяцев назад

We liked Green Lakes but it's hard to get an electric site. We only got in because it was during the covid time. Looking forward to seeing your video on Ives Run. It is another campground that requires you plan ahead to stay on the weekend. Even when the have a site that only available for just one night you can't reserve it for less than two nights. Therefore empty sites go unused.

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Ya, That's an absolutely ridiculous rule. I see that and I just get so mad. I'm more often than not a one night camper traveling!! They don't want travelers, they want long term campers!! Stupid!! Ives is next week! Thanks for the comment!

@leopage2728 10 месяцев назад

I read that although they are called deer ticks it's believed that mice are the culprits spreading lime disease.

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

True. The ticks go through 4 phases. Egg, Larve, Nymph, and adult. The larve almost exclusively feed on small mammals. They hatch from eggs in the leaf litter and immediately feed on small critters. Nymphs may crawl around and get on dogs and larger mammals, But usually its adults that climb up taller plants and up legs and arms of larger mammals. So best way to reduce ticks is hawks, owls, and snakes.

My grandson is in sylvan beach it is beautiful there around Syracuse

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Thats a nice park too. It has a tendency to get algae and seaweed in late August, but by now its probably cleared up! Thanks for the comment !

@wtfisthisp00 10 месяцев назад

Thanx for the video

@ADKMan 10 месяцев назад

Green Lakes is on my list for next year!! I’ll have to rent a kayak because they won’t allow mine the water since it’s heavily protected. I won’t be staying long because of what you mentioned…..sites are so close! That’s one thing I don’t really care for.

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Ya, and the pines Bathroom is new, while the rolling hills is like 1960. So pick the pines area if you make a reservation.

@NoFeeArea 10 месяцев назад

Good times. I have never seen a dog fetch a tree!!!! Funny Akela.

This park looks pretty nice. Will you be taking the other camper there?

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Not in the next 2 years. Heading west and north. Up into Michigan and Minnesota. Possibly Montana. But Green Lakes is really a family fun camp and big resource for locals.

@Pistolmike59 10 месяцев назад

I know you’ve probably told us before but what apps/websites do you use to secure your camping registrations/reservations?

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Just reserveamerica and recreation.gov. All the others are AD hogs or membership

@odeannehartnett2538 Месяц назад

You forgot the newest loop!

@GoingNoWhereFast Месяц назад

The newest loop is a RV parking lot for full hookups. It is great they did that, but you'll never see me camping in that loop! lol

@kevnjeanne День назад

😊Green Lakes is 170 feet deep and Round Lake is 180 feet.

@GoingNoWhereFast День назад

@@kevnjeanne I don't think so, When I was in 3rd grade they told us they go all the down to the center of the earth!! Where sea monsters and creatures live. So they keep it a secret!! And actually, there are Layers in the lake where the difference bacteria have developed distinct eco-clims. We sampled some of these when I was in College. And the last thing is the "bottom" is a silt sediment that gets progressively denser as you go through it. The first 30 ft you could actually swim through. They believe that sediment layer is over 150ft deep. I believe it goes to china!!

@bucky716 10 месяцев назад

The topic of "more needs to be done" is an interesting one. Generations and generations and generations of people who camp and introduced their family to camping who now own RV's etc. All at campgrounds that've been around for 50+ years. Same can be side about hiking on trails that've been around for even longer. Campgrounds aren't going to close spaces for much needed revenue. What's the solution? No idea and it won't be solved in a youtube comments section.

@GoingNoWhereFast 10 месяцев назад

Very true. But you would be surprised who reads these comments and watches the video and they take them as customer feedback. Some of the older parks and campground know they need to upgrade or just do more upkeep, and seeing these comments and videos on their facilities gives them evidence to go to the higher ups and say we need more money to fix stuff. So it isn't just out in outer space for no one to hear.

@bucky716 10 месяцев назад

@@GoingNoWhereFast Good points! It's awesome how many people are into camping so hopefully the word gets through to make improvements.

@eedgerton769 2 месяца назад

No one ever mentions the cabins when doing camping overviews of Green Lakes. The cabins are a bargain at $450 a week and are widely separated, very new inside and ridiculously spacious. Also you will get the privacy you won’t get in any of the camping loops. The trick to reserving one is to be flexible in your vacation dates and keep targeting the 9 month window, be willing to reserve Sunday to Sunday or some other weird span. Early June seems a little easier to get reservations.

@GoingNoWhereFast 2 месяца назад

Ya. I don’t think they have bathrooms though!? I’ve never seen one inside.
