Sawteeth, Nippletop, and Dial | Adirondack 46er
Another amazing hike out in the Adirondacks! This was a really nice challenging hike coming in at about 21.75 miles with over 7,100' of elevation gain! Climbed Sawteeth, Nippletop, and Dial, stopping at Rainbow Falls, Indian Head, and Fish Hawk Cliffs along the way! This puts me at 41/46! I took the scenic route, which is the original route up Sawteeth, so of course, it had many incredible views along the way, foreshadowing the other mountains to climb, with a beautiful view at the summit of the Upper Great Range! The multiple outlooks along this route really help break it up and make the steep climb enjoyable. After the beautiful unofficial summit lookout, it was a short trip over to the...

Tabletop and Phelps | Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 13021 день назад
What an absolutely incredible day back in the Adirondacks! Roughly 13 miles with just under 4,000 ft of gain to Tabletop and Phelps. The Van Hovenberg Trail up to the bridge, just after the Phelps junction was so mild, you could really cruise. After that, the trail took me up to Indian Falls, just after the Tabletop junction. Indian Falls was absolutely beautiful, with incredible views of Colde...
Whiteface and Esther | Adirondack 46er

After 4 months away from the Adirondacks, it felt absolutely amazing to be back out here climbing some mountains again! Unfortunately, it will be a little while again until I get after the next, as I rolled my ankle BADLY coming down, hoping for a quick recovery, only 10 peaks left to finish! For this trip, I decided to climb Whiteface and Esther. Originally, my plan was to finish my 46er journ...
MacIntyre Range | Winter Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 4987 месяцев назад
This was one of the hikes that I was looking forward to the most, for good reason! This range has absolutely incredible views that do not disappoint! I started out with a gloomy day, but the forecast was calling for a cloud base at about 2500 feet, so I was fully expecting a cloud inversion up on the summit, and I was not let down at all! The summit of Algonquin, the second tallest peak in NY, ...
Redfield and Cliff | Winter Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 3588 месяцев назад
This was an amazing day despite the gloomy cloud-covered summits. The plan for the day was to hike Redfield and Cliff then take the bushwhack off of Cliff down to the Flowed Lands. After that, I would hike to climb Marshall and head back out through Avalanche Pass. Unfortunately, plans changed after the bushwhack had me soaked and out of extra layers. My bottom layers were completely saturated ...
Big Slide | Winter Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 1828 месяцев назад
This was day two of my planned three-day trip in the Adirondacks. The plan was to summit Big Slide via the Brothers Trail, and descend the Big Slide Trail to loop out on the Phelps Trail. I knew the Brothers Trail was going to be steep, but man it was pretty crazy! Ascending to the First Brother had an abundance of viewpoints along the way, giving view to Porter, the other two Brothers, the ent...
Street and Nye | Winter Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 1848 месяцев назад
Finally back in the Adirondacks for a weekend! The plan was to do Street and Nye on day one, Big Slide on day two, and Nippletop, Dial, Sawteeth, and Indian Head on the third day. My plans for the third day were canceled because I was beat, I've never hiked two days back to back, let alone three. My 27th and 28th of the 46 and the first winter high peak for the 46! This was an incredible day wi...
Giant and Rocky Peak Ridge | Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 66111 месяцев назад
A spontaneous trip back out to the Adirondacks has me climbing Giant and Rocky Peak Ridge, putting me at 26/46! It was a late 3pm start so I knew I would get to enjoy my first sunset, and man was it beautiful. Giant was a steep 3,000' climb in just 3 miles with beautiful views every time you turn around. I also decided to take the short half-mile trip over to Giants Nubble and it was absolutely...
Cascade and Porter | Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 874Год назад
It was such a beautiful day in the Adirondacks again! I came back up to add Cascade and Porter to my 46er list, with the intention of also doing Giant and Rocky Peak Ridge right after, but those plans changed. After climbing to the extraordinarily exposed summit of one of the most heavily traveled high peaks in the Adirondacks, Cascade Moutain, I enjoyed the amazing views of the rest of the par...

On September 3rd I made my way to the Adirondacks again to hike one of the most amazing day hikes NY has to offer, The Great Range Traverse. This was a glorious 22.5 mile, 9,100' vert hike, and it was a tough one, Make no mistake this hike will definitely test your body and your capabilities! This epic trek added 8 more high peaks to my 46er journey, landing me at 22/46. This was also one of th...
The Dix Range | Adirondack 46er

On June 25th, I made another trip to the Adirondacks, this time to take on the Dix Range! Finishing this range put me at 14/46! As for the stats on this trip, on Strava, I recorded 15.35 miles with 5,410' of elevation gain and it took me 9 hours and 20 minutes! This was an absolute epic hike, the views up on the range were incredible! They could have been much better if it were not for a rainy ...
Seward Range and Seymour | Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 1,1 тыс.Год назад
On May 19th I was back in the ADK to do the Seward Range and Seymour. This hike is not to be taken lightly as it is one of the most remote ranges in the ADK. Typically this is split up into a two-day trip by most, but I wanted to do it in one. This hike ended up being 22.42 miles with 6,133 feet of elevation gain and it took me 12 hours and 30 minutes. It was a beautiful day in the '70s. The ro...
Colvin and Blake | Adirondack 46er

May 7th, a beautiful day in the Adirondacks again! I made my way up the Lake Road intending to summit Colvin, Blake, Nippletop, and Dial. Unfortunately, the mountains had other plans for me, I had to orphan Nippletop and Dial after hurting my right knee. The walk along the Lake Road was a nice warm-up for the day. Walking past the H..G. Leach Trail, I reached the Gill Brook Trail, this was a be...
Santanoni Range | Adirondack 46er
Просмотров 542Год назад
This was an absolutely epic day, not only because the weather was nice, but mainly because this was the start of my Adirondack 46er journey! This hike took 10 hours and 5 minutes, and I ended up with 19.69 miles! I chose to start on The Santanoni Range for one good reason, no mud! Although the winter conditions were slowly deteriorating in the mountains, the mud was non-existent! This range is ...
Mt. Monadnock | Spellman Trail
Просмотров 627Год назад
The craziest and most impressive thing about Mount Monadnock is that it is the 2nd most hiked mountain in the WORLD! Although it only rises 3,166 feet above sea level, the reason it holds that title is that it offers the feeling of an actual high peak experience. Monadnock's bare, isolated, and rocky summit is what draws people to it from all over the country. This has been a trip that we've pl...

Beautiful hike i did rainbow falls and indian head 2weeks ago
@Outsidetrailsandwoods it sure is incredibly beautiful! Thank you for watching!
Great hike up there!! The views don’t stop and the slides at 13:21 are crazy!
Thanks for watching! Yeah the views were incredible all day!
I cant believe this only has 4 likes. This is a great video!
@thomasthetrain19 thank you for the compliment on the video, and thanks for watching. It'll get there with time!
I did them in separate hikes because of the time of year and minimum daylight Nye was my 15th High Peak and my last Fall High Peak Street was my 16th High Peak and my 1st winter High Peak If I get Redfield again this coming winter that’ll make it my all 4 season High Peak
This hike was especially nice in the winter, I've seen how the trail looks for these two with no snow, they're pretty rugged. Thank you for watching!
Big Slide was my 19th High Peak and it was when I did this hike that I had decided to set a quest to make Mount Redfield my all 4 season High Peak and I’m 1 winter hike away from making that happen
That's an awesome goal to have, Redfield was quite fun to climb! Thanks for watching!
Giant was my 2nd High Peak and I’ve done it twice Rocky Peak was my 37th High Peak and it left me with just 5 of the Maintained Trail High Peaks that are taller than Mount Vesuvius left this was the order that I took those 16 out 1st. Whiteface(1) 2nd. Giant(2)X2 3rd. Marcy(3)X2 4th. Algonquin(4)X2 5th. Wrights(5)X2 6th. Skylight(10)X2 7th. Haystack(11) 8th. Big Slide(19) 9th. Dix(25) 10th. Colden(36) 11th. Rocky Peak Ridge(37) 12th. Nippletop(38) 13th. Basin(40) 14th. Saddleback(41) 15th. Gothics(42) 16th. Armstrong(43)
Very nice! Thanks for watching! GIant is a real beast to climb, and the col between Giant and RPR is no joke.
@@DerekGHikes for sure I did on my birthday(July 30th) and then went to Roaring Brook Falls and relaxed under the waterfall
@@kevinvesuviusevilmowgli perfect spot to relax for sure!
Cascade and Porter were my 6th and 7th High Peak and the last 1s I took out before my 21 Hour Hike in the High Peak Wilderness they were even the 1st Maintained Trail High Peaks that aren’t taller than Mount Vesuvius that I did in fact this is the order of the 9 Maintained Trail High Peaks that are shorter than Mount Vesuvius 1st. Porter(6) 2nd. Cascade(7) 3rd. Lower Wolfjaw(12)X2 4th. Upper Wolfjaw(13)X2 5th. Phelps(17)X2 6th. Dial(39) 7th. Colvin(44) 8th. Blake(45) 9th. Sawteeth(46)
These two were a great quick and enjoyable climb! I am certainly interested to see how the new trail they are building is going to be. It will go from the Van Hovenberg Rec Center and be about twice the length of this trail.
Whiteface was my very first High Peak and Esther was my 14th Whiteface has the longest history with me dating back to when I was a child because the cabin that me and my grandma use to retreat to a lot you could see Whiteface from the front deck of the cabin but it doesn’t have the biggest or most intense history with me
Whiteface was an incredible climb, Esther I really enjoyed it, however, I didn't like that Whiteface had a road to the top. That's awesome that you have that childhood memory with this mountain. I'm sure a cabin overlooking any high peak would be an amazing experience to enjoy growing up.
Algonquin was my 5th Wrights was my 6th and Iroquois was my 27th High Peak and during my 2nd Marshall hike which was my 6th Redfield hike there were a set of clouds on Iroquois that made it almost look like a volcano
That sounds like an incredible sight to see with the clouds creating that! This range was absolutely incredible and definitely lived up to the hype I expected! I hope to come back to this range but also include the bushwhack over the Shepard's Tooth to Marshall, to complete the whole range together.
@@DerekGHikes it was I did Iroquois the day after I did Allen I hiked all the to the ADK Lodge from Allen
@@kevinvesuviusevilmowgli very nice, that's a great hike!
@@DerekGHikes for sure I made the 26th highest peak(Allen) my 26th High Peak
Phelps was my 17th High Peak back then I had no plan on how I was going to taking out all the High Peaks Tabletop was my 20th High Peak I did that the day before I did the Dix Range and that’s when I had decided to do all the Herd Path High Peaks 1st and then do a victory lap on Redfield once I got all 21 that’s why Cliff was my last Herd Path High Peak so that way the victory lap would be a lot easier
Phelps was by far my favorite of the two!
I did Marcy twice 1st time was in 2014 it was my 3rd High Peak and then I did it again with my 2nd Skylight and Phelps hike Haystack was my 11th High Peak and I did it during my 21 Hour Hike from Upper Works to JBL alongside Redfield(who I’ve done 6 times) Gray(who I’ve done twice) and Skylight(who I’ve done twice The Wolfjaws I did twice as well the 1st time was the morning after my 21 hour hike I rested for 5 hours and then went right back to hiking and made the Wolfjaws my 12th and 13th High Peak Basin Saddleback Gothics and Armstrong I did all together and they finished my quest to get all 28 High Peaks that are taller than Mount Vesuvius and then I did my 2nd hike on the Wolfjaws giving me 43/46 High Peaks
That's awesome! I can't wait to get back out to these mountains for another time during different seasons! I especially can't wait to do Marcy again considering I was completely socked in with clouds on this one.
The Dix Range was my halfway marker with Grace Peak being my 23rd Dix was my 25th Macomb was my 21st South Dix my 22nd and Hough my 24th
The Macomb Slide was so fun to climb, and the backside of the Beckhorn was a wild experience, being super sketchy in one spot. Thanks for checking out my videos and taking the time to comment!
The Santanoni Range was near the end of my quest to slay all of the Herd Path High Peaks after my 2nd Redfield hike I had set different goals for the remaining High Peaks to cut them down to size and I decided to start with the 21 Herd Path High Peaks this is the order I took them out and what number they were for me with all 46 High Peaks and how many times I’ve taken them out 1st. Redfield(8)X6 2nd. Gray Peak(9)X2 3rd. Esther(14) 4th. Nye(15) 5th. Street(16) 6th. Marshall(18)X2 7th. Tabletop(20) 8th. Macomb(21) 9th. South Dix(22) 10th. Grace Peak(23) 11th. Hough(24) 12th. Allen(26) 13th. Iroquois(27) 14th. Donaldson(28) 15th. Emmons(29) 16th. Seward(30) 17th. Panther Peak(31) 18th. Couchsachraga(32) 19th. Santanoni(33) 20th. Seymour(34) 21st. Cliff(35)
I'm glad to have started with the Santanoni Range, it puts into perspective really fast what the journey to finish the 46 was going to be like. Especially with the rugged ones. Redfield was a fun one, I can see why you've chosen to climb it 6 times.
@@DerekGHikes Redfield has developed quite the history with me since the 21 Hour Hike and if I get it this winter that’ll make it my all 4 season High Peak
Donaldson Emmons and Seward made 30 for me and Seymour made 34 because I did the Santanoni Range before Seymour and then the following week after Seymour I finished off the last of the 21 Herd Path High Peaks with Cliff being the finale of the Herd Path High Peaks
Very nice! The Santanoni and Seward Range were among my favorites for their ruggedness.
@@DerekGHikes for sure Panther Peak my friends made a joke about me being on it because of my middle name being Mowgli
Colvin was my 44th High Peak Blake was my 45th and I did Sawteeth with them which was my 46th
That's awesome man, Colvin and Sawteeth are beautiful. Blake sucked because of the lack of views and the out and back through from Colvin.
@@DerekGHikes for real Blake was just like Cliff the only real views were going up to the summit
Nippletop was my 37th High Peak Dial was my 38th Sawteeth was my 46th
Thanks for watching! This was such a fantastic hike, and Sawteeth is certainly a worthy peak to finish on! I'm planning to end on Skylight.
@@DerekGHikes I’ve done Skylight twice 1st time was with Redfield(who I’ve done 6 times now) Gray(who I’ve done twice now) and Haystack during my 21 Hour Hike 2nd time was with Marcy(who I’ve done twice now) and Phelps(who I’ve done twice now)
@@DerekGHikes after my 2nd of my 6 hikes on Mount Redfield I set out a strategy to get the 27 High Peaks I had left 1st take out all the Herd Path High Peaks(which Cliff was the finish on that on July 9th) 2nd take out all the High Peaks taller than Mount Vesuvius(which I finished with Basin Saddleback Gothics and Armstrong all together in the same hike on August 14th) Finally take out the remaining High Peaks that are shorter than Mount Vesuvius(which I finished with Colvin Blake and Sawteeth on August 27th)
Views!!
@@01247Brandon so many!
Can’t beat hiking to keep fit & enjoy your surroundings eh?
@Ozinretirement absolutely! There is nothing better than doing something so rewarding and improving your mental and physical health at the same time!
My friend and I are planning to do this route in a few days. We intend on leaving from rooster comb lot and ending at the garden, basically the opposite direction loop of yours. Curious how many hours this took you to complete?
@dennis7seat Have fun out there! This hike was absolutely incredible! Don't sweat the Saddleback Cliffs, either. They're definitely easier than made out to be. It took me 10 hours and 30 minutes. Going in the direction you are should afford you a more relaxed second half of the day, being that it's mostly flat through the valley.
Lame and boring east coast crap !!
@@DavidMitchell-qx9ne So find a west coast hiking channel? Lmao. Hiking is hiking.
Stoke high , I can't wait to get back up to hike in the Adirondacks. Thanks for curing my homesickness.

@@JUANORQUIO Yeah, it certainly was! Thanks for watching.
Great views all the way around!! 😮 Looks steep for sure! Did you have snow shoes on?
@@michael_budda Yes, I had them on and off throughout the day. If they were not on, the spikes were.
Nice hike! The mud being ‘no joke’ reminds me of the only time I did hike up that way, it was muddy as all heck! Congrats on no. 35! Just subbed! Looking forward to more!
@michael_budda haha yeah the mud was crazy, but a lot of fun! Whiteface ended up being 36. Thank you for watching and for the sub! Feel free to check out my other videos if you'd like!
@@DerekGHikes I definitely will! And if you're interested in the Whites at all, I have a few videos of that up here 👍

Thanks for watching, and thanks for the kind words! It certainly was a great day on trail, with beautiful weather and gorgeous views!
Well done! Great editing
@@01247Brandon thanks!
Good job. Haven't taken Spellman trail in years and I don't remember that little stream you had to hop across. Perhaps it was flowing strong due to snowmelt. Wonder if you took Spellman back down. I considered it too steep to try to descend and opted for other trails.
Thanks for watching! It was most likely more snow melt than anything. We ended up taking the White Dot down.
Marcy- "Tahawus-Cloud Splitter".
I loooove the Adirondacks Mountains! Thank you for sharing your amazing hike!🙌
Thank you for watching! Take a look at my other videos if you'd like! I'll be filming all of the 46 while becoming a 46er this summer! Enjoy!
I’ve yet to do Cliff but I’ve done Redfield I did that last Fall during my 21 hour hike alongside Marcy’s 3 neighbors(Gray Peak Skylight and Haystack) I plan to nail Redfield again this spring summer and winter
It's a great hike!

Fantastic summit. I love open terrain and tops like this. Above the clouds and sen with the occasional puff spots, unbeatable winter ascent
Absolutely, it's an incredible experience climbing to summits like this! It certainly makes you feel as though you are standing on another world.
@@DerekGHikes ya great reply. In 2000 I was a snowmobile tour guide in Vermont. I took tourist up a ski mountain at 5 pm. The sun lit the peak but the bottom was pitch black. I felt like an astronaut on another planet. Damn straight
Great video! The Mac Range is a personal favorite.
Thanks for watching! Absolutely one of my favorites as well, only one to top it so far is The Great Range.
@@DerekGHikes have you done the Dix range yet?
@@jdavidelwell Yes I have, I also have a video of it on my channel, feel free to check it out!
Sweet video, great job
Fantastic video of the McIntyre range! I did them all last August for my 46. Started with wright then to Al and Iroquois. Took the boundary trail (really steep!) to avalanche pass. Indeed, it’s one of the most beautiful stretch of mountains in the entire park. Thanks for sharing your trip!
Absolutely! Aside from doing the Great Range Traverse, this range is my favorite climb so far!
Love hiking & filming in the winter when you’re the only one on the trail, nice video 👍
Thanks for watching! Yeah, I couldn't agree more. I like to hike with others, but when filming, I enjoy being alone. I'm not too fond of filming around others as I tend to film less, and mostly without talking.
I just watched this video so I could see the Cliff bushwhack 😢 also glad to see another person blogging the ADK’s. Definitely my style blog. Love it.
Thanks for watching Brian, I'm a huge fan of everything you put out, so I appreciate the kind comment! Yeah, I really regret not filming the bushwhack itself! I definitely won't be making that mistake again!
First!
tent campers? I was just told by another youtuber that camping in tents and hammocks isnt allowed, that you can only stay in the shelters...I need to do more research
Tent and hammock camping are absolutely permitted. However, there are strict rules in place, so it's important to understand them. The rules are as follows. Tents, tarps, lean-tos, or temporary structures composed of snow permitted. No Camping at any location above 4,000 feet in elevation. (Sno-Bird is the only exception to this) No Camping above 3,500 feet in elevation but equal to or less than 4,000 feet except at a primitive tent site. Camping within 150 feet of any trails or water is permitted only at designated sites.
@@DerekGHikes thanks! I’m planning a visit this year, I’ll make sure I read up on the rules. How’s the area in June?
@TheBane1979 Technically, early June could still be considered mud season, so trails could be quite messy with melting snow conditions.
@@DerekGHikes ah, gotcha. When would be the earliest for it to not be muddy? Fall would be awesome, but I don’t know if I wanna wait that late in the year and I know it would be busier that time too
@TheBane1979 haha unfortunately what I've learned from the Adirondacks is that it's ALWAYS muddy. But mud season in particular, because of the snow deteriorating, it makes hiking kind of miserable. If you don't want mud, then yeah, fall is great!
You should have a drone camera to follow you back from those departure shots. Looks good
Yeah, that would be cool, but there are so many regulations and restrictions with drone use. Especially in the Adirondacks, where I've been hiking more recently. So I feel it's just not worth getting into it, for myself anyway. Thanks for the suggestion and watching my video! Check out my other content if you'd like!
Nice hike just before the super cold weather gets here!
Great editing!
Thanks!
Awesome video I'm doing this on Wednesday.
Thank you! Good luck. Have a safe hike. This was a fun range to hike!
@@DerekGHikes Thank you, sir. I can't wait to do more of the 46er. I have only done Wright.
Awesome!
You didn't fight any bears or cougars? Pshh Amateur.
🤣🤣
The transitions at the beginning are awesome!
Can confirm it is very easy to lose the trail on that range. Also very good call not to go down to santanoni express. Last summer as I was coming down the trail split and I went to the right and ended up having to negotiate a near 50 ft vertical slab with nothing to grab onto. Had to butt slide down the last 15 ft, tore up my shorts. I really enjoyed the views though, good luck on the rest of 46. Send it🤙
Thanks for watching, and I think I know what slab you're talking about. I've seen a few videos of people negotiating a slab on the express, it does look pretty crazy.
I'm cold just looking at that snow fkkkk that.
I have no idea where you got this editing talent. It sure as hell wasn't from me lol. This is really top quality shit. Maybe throw in some "Bloopers" reel at the end of you busting your ass on the trail? loi
Lol, thanks, dad.
Good video.. and excellent call on returning the way you went up. Could've easily been stuck on the wrong side of the Santanoni Brook.. or worse.. plunge through.. That brook is usually raging this time of year! Congrats on your first 3.
Thank you, and yeah, it definitely could have been a very bad situation had I not made that call.
