My name is Joseph Getts. I live in New Hampshire and work at Great North Aleworks, a local craft brewery. When I'm not pouring beer, I'm drinking it on top of one of the 48 4,000+ foot peaks in the White Mountain National Forest of New Hampshire. I am documenting each of the 48 mountains through this channel, and taking my dog Dexter along for the ride!
Foliage Party 2018 - 30th Anniversary!
Every Columbus Day Weekend for the past 30 years, my wife's family has been celebrating the fall season here in New England with an annual "Foliage Party". This year was extra special, as it was the 30th anniversary. Over the years the party has grown in size due to new generations of children and many new friends.
This is seriously one of the best days, and one that I look forward to each year. I was excited to have some of my college friends from New Jersey up for the weekend to experience the party, and just the absolute beauty of New Hampshire in the fall.

INSANE VIEWS ATOP THE FRANCONIA RANGE | Hiking Mt. Flume & Mt. Liberty
zhlédnutí 3,5KPřed 5 lety
Hiking Mt. Flume and Mt. Liberty in the White Mountains of New Hampshire yields some of the most incredible views in all of the Northeast of the United States. These are two 4,000 foot mountains located along the Franconia Mountain Range that are easily accessible from Interstate 93 within the well-visited Franconia Notch State Park. The most popular parking area for this hike begins at the Flu...
The Enchanting Forests of Mt. Waumbek | Winter Hike In NH
zhlédnutí 8KPřed 6 lety
Located along the Pliny Mountain Range, Mount Waumbek is the 46th tallest mountain in the state of New Hampshire, and although the summit is completely wooded with no views, the hike itself takes you through one of the most enchanted forests in the Granite State. No matter the season, Mt. Waumbek is a rather easy/moderate hike thanks to the gradual nature of the Starr King Trail which begins in...
A NEW HAMPSHIRE CHRISTMAS STORY | Part 2: Trimming The Tree
zhlédnutí 3,4KPřed 6 lety
Here is Part 2 of our New Hampshire Christmas Story! Not commonly known (even to residents of New Hampshire) is the fact that you can pay $5 for a permit to cut your own wild-grown Christmas tree within the White Mountain National Forest. A permit can be obtained at a ranger station, and the general “rules” are as follows: The tree must be at least 100 feet away from roads, and not from a wilde...
A NEW HAMPSHIRE CHRISTMAS STORY | Part 1: Felling The Tree
zhlédnutí 4,8KPřed 6 lety
Everyone has their own Christmas story. This is ours… New Hampshire is a regularly forgotten state. It’s small (just over a million residents) and every time I travel outside of New England, people look at me like I have two heads when I tell them I’m from the Granite State. I often get, “which state is that in?” I was born in Concord, NH and I’ve lived here almost my entire life (I went to col...

The New Hampshire 52 With-A-View list is exactly what it sounds: 52 mountains (under 4,000 ft. of elevation) that all boast incredible views. Many of the mountains on the list are easy/moderate hikes and are accessible to hikers of all fitness levels. In this episode of Getts Wild, I am joined by fellow NH residents and lifelong hikers, Eric and Jenny Ruffin. I linked up with Eric Ruffin via In...
HIKING IN THE WHITE MOUNTAINS | Mt. Lincoln & Mt. Lafayette

When it comes to hiking in the White mountains, look no further than the popular Mt. Lincoln - Mt. Lafayette loop. Just over two hours from Boston and accessible from Interstate 93 in New Hampshire, this 8.8 mile loop has it all. Cascading waterfalls, mountain lakes, and an exposed ridge walk are just a few of the highlights that this route has to offer. Mt. Lafayette is the 6th highest mountai...
NEW HAMPSHIRE 4,000 FOOTERS | The Osceolas

Mt. Osceola and it's neighboring peak, East Osceola are two 4,000 foot New Hampshire mountains that are named in honor of Chief Osceola (1804 - 1838). Osceola was a Native American Seminole Tribe leader of Florida during the early 1800s. The route taken in this episode of Getts Wild begins at the Tripoli Road Trailhead, just off of Exit 31 along Interstate 93. This is the southern approach via ...

Mt. Carrigain is the 13th highest mountain in New Hampshire, standing at 4,700 feet. In this episode of Getts Wild, my buddy Evan joins my dog Dexter and I as we ascend this prominent peak.

After crossing Carrigain Notch Brook, the Signal Ridge Trail takes a left hand turn and begins a steep ascent to the top of the expose...

Mt. Garfield is the 17th highest of the 48, 4,000 foot peaks in New Hampshire's White Mountains. On this episode of Getts Wild, my 4-year old Belgian Shepherd, Dexter and I showcase this impressive cliff-filled mountain.

THE BEST MOUNTAIN VIEWS - Mt. Moosilauke

In the second ever episode of Getts Wild, Lauren, Dexter, and I hike Mt. Moosilauke in New Hampshire! Moosilauke is the 10th highest mountain in the Granite State at an elevation of 4,802 ft. It's name is derived from Abenaki Indian words "moosi" and "auke" that when combined mean "bald place". That's because the summit of Mt. Moosilauke is 100 acres of alpine tundra, with unobstructed 360° vie...

This is my very first video on CZcams and it was a blast to make. I hope that you enjoy it since this is the first of a weekly series of videos that I'll be sharing to document my hiking and outdoors adventures here in the Granite State of New Hampshire! In this episode, my dog Dexter and I hike North and South Kinsman mountains, two of the forty eight 4000 foot mountains here in NH. The Kinman...
I was confused by Resolution which I found to be a very ironic name for the mountain. Did you find it hard to find the true peak??
@@scott7521 Honestly it's been so many years since I've last hiked it that I can't remember if we had that issue or not. Definitely agree with the irony of the name if that's the case!
Thanks 😊
Love your video. Thanks sooo much for sharing. You guys are awesome ❤
Thank you so much!
Miss these videos and Dexter!
I know, I loved making them! Unfortunately, Dexter passed away unexpectedly this past November. I may put together a tribute video for him at some point soon. Thanks so much for watching, I would love to make more in the future with our younger pup, Marty!
@@GettsWild I am so sorry to hear about Dexter! 😪 What a wonderful dog he was-you were truly blessed. I would love to see new hiking videos featuring Marty! 😍
@@emargaretboston2158 Dexter was truly special and one of a kind. I miss him everyday. With that said, we absolutely love Marty and I think everyone else would too if he made it into future videos!
Great job on showing the trail. Too many hikers focus on themselves and not the hike. The drone shots wow! Keep putting these videos out there. Love NH and your Buddy is adorable 🥰
Beautiful video; thank you! We're moving back east and these are the best videos!
Glad that you're enjoying them, Jen! Thanks so much for watching and welcome back to the East!
Really great video; thank you! Beautiful footage, excellent information! My husband and I are moving back east to NH, watching your videos is helping us feel better about leaving the amazing backpacking in Idaho ... Thank you so much!
I was just in Idaho last month, it's absolutely stunning there, but I think you'll be super excited to explore the White Mountains. Welcome back to the East Coast!
Great video but I will never understand people’s need to add repetitive, crappy music.
Thanks for watching!
Great video
Thanks, David!
Time for a beer 🍺 awesome
Im in the gym watching this video and now i want to drink a beer lol
Sounds like you've earned a beer! 🍺
Might as well be wearing crocs
I think you meant Isolation, not Jackson. Jackson is taller than Waumbek
Hey thank you for doing these videos of the New Hampshire’s 48! Wondering if you know of any books that can link a few of these on the list as this is next on my list to do after my (section) hike on the Appalachian Trail is completed (2/3’s done so far).
Hey PM, thanks so much, I have fun making them! And the main book that I use for information on the 4,000 footers is called "The 4,000-Footers of the White Mountains" by Steven D. Smith & Mike Dickerman. There are also lots of forums that you can find where people discuss these hikes and how to connect many of them together. Most of the trails in the Whites connect and allow for endless backpacking opportunities. Hope that helps!
Can you show the trail and talk at the same time? The camera can swivel to show what's ahead I assume?
Great video. I lead hikes for the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) and this video gives prospective hikers a good feel for what the trail is like. Also thought giving the history of the fire towers was good to include. Finally, liked the name of your dog!
Thanks for watching and for the feedback, Dexter. I'll let Dexter know he has a new fan as well!
Spent the night in the fire tower years ago and cut my finger on a piece of broken glass from on of the windows of the cab. Still have a big scar .
No drones allowed in wilderness areas in the white mountains. All of you hiking youtubers need to leave your obnoxious drones at home.
Hey thanks for watching, Richard!
Good video! You actualy went aronud the actual Chimney on the way down lol.
These vids are so good. Sad you stopped making them!
Thanks for the kind words, Heather! I may start up again, they just took a lot of time to produce and I've been caught up in other things as of late. I love making them, so we'll see!
Just hiked this yesterday as my first 4k footer. great vid, shows the trail better than my pictures I managed to capture as a struggling fat guy.
A+
Amazing video
I like your videos. Very well done. Can you tell me what month you hiked Kinsman. I was wondering about the black flies.
Hey Tim, I believe I filmed this video in June. Spring/early summer hiking in New England definitely comes with a fair share of flying insects! Something to consider for sure.
The mountains have a lot more to say than the jarring and discordant music that clashes with the meditative experience of being among them. Fortunately, I last hiked Garfield in peaceful silence back in the early 90s. But hats off to you for getting out there and showing the sights. Maybe I am getting old...
Last name of kynaston. Did your family hail from Shropshire England originally? If so you might Google sir Humphrey kynaston aka wild Humphrey. He was a highwayman akin to robin hood. Very famous. Outlawed after losing the family castle apparently murdered a man and had a pardon from the king after assisting with troops for a war ( if memory serves me it was Henry II) . direct descendant of the platwganet kings and queens. His sister was princess Diana's 14th great grandmother. Lots of history
Love the plug for Great North at the summit!!!
Thanks Rick! What's better than having a summit beer?!
Hi Joeseph... great to meet you yesterday...
Likewise, man! I'll see you around!
Very 😎
Great video man! How old is Dexter? is he a German Shepard?
Thanks, Dylan! Dexter was 4 or 5 when I made these original videos. He'll be 9 in March! And we rescued him so he is some sort of Belgian Shepherd mix we think. Super smart. Just an awesome dog.
dman its crazy seeing the exact spots ive been myself, cool to think just how many people have made this journey and how we all can share the same appreciation of the same thing
Is it well marked?
Yes, it is!
Thanks for sharing amazing place
where you live my brother? would be down to hit a day hike any weekend ... (from MA with love)
Thank you so much detailed infos 😉🥰🤗. All will be great help for us . Planing to hike Lafette this Sunday.
Enjoy!!
I hope and there more videos 🥺

What’s the music?
I use copyright-free music from www.epidemicsound.com! Which song in the video are you referring to? I can look up the name and artist and let you know what it is.
@@GettsWild the intro song is sick!
@@GettsWild that’s insane it’s free
@@EmpireTextbooks The intro song is called "In the Blue (COE Remix)" by Tommy Ljungberg and you can listen to the whole thing on CZcams here: czcams.com/video/dzUIko4FIaA/video.html
hey there! just had a question about drones on the trail. are there drones permitted for recreation/hobby on this trail or need permit? thanks!
Hey Mike, at the time of me filming this drones were just starting to become mainstream and the laws were not concrete yet. Since then drones are prohibited from being flown anywhere along the Appalachian Trail, which part of this loop includes. I am unsure of what laws have been passed since, but I'm sure you could find out through some quick Googling. Hope that helps!
I love your videos incl. the historical nuggets. 😊 I wish you would post more.
Thanks so much for watching, Suzie! I've got some other endeavors at the moment but hope to circle back around to Getts Wild before too long!
Your video brought back wonderful memories. Mt. Lafayette was my first major hike. I spent a whole summer day on the trail with friends, using the Greenleaf Trail to reach the summit. We had a fun time, though by the end I was exhausted, with my legs and feet feeling like jelly due to the steep ascent. Nevertheless, I’ll never forget how amazing it was to take in the serenity of the White Mountains at such a high altitude.
Thanks so much for watching, I'm glad it brought back those memories for you! It really is a special hike. Never gets old.
Well done. Thank you!
Thanks, Peter!
I’m planning to do the same hike next week with my dog, was your boy ok? What about his paws? Thank you
Each dog is different, but Dexter's paws are fine unless there's snow and ice. For winter conditions I use Mushers Secret to protect his paws, and you could use that in the summer too if you wanted. In the summer, the heat is a bigger issue since he's long haired and doubled coated. Just need to make sure they get enough rest, water, and monitor them. Otherwise, enjoy the hike, it's fantastic!
Thank you so much!!!
Love your videos! This is the best channel about white mountain hikes I saw on CZcams so far! Thank you for your great job!
Thank you so much, that means a lot!
I really enjoy Getz Wild videos. I’m sad there aren’t more.
Thanks for the kind words, Evelyn! There may be more videos in store for the future!
@@GettsWild Sure hope so! Hiking in the Whites this July! 😁
@@GettsWild I second that. These videos are so well done. Last one was 3 years ago and I’m wondering why you stopped. So good!
haha easy, I did techumseh yesteday an crap that was tough
have you ever come across a bear on your travels?
No but Dexter and I did run into a young, aggressive bull moose on this Garfield hike on our way down! Luckily it didn't charge and we ran all the way back to the trailhead 😅
A generation lost to junk music, admiring a view of a ski area. Then the ass pulls out his peace destroying drone, which are not allowed for good reason last I checked. (Had I been there, you'd lose the drone, son.) Kid shows poor hiking skills, experienced hikers will bring gloves to wear to scramble over rocks. The summit of E Osceola is not exciting in this vid, because the vid is poor. He gets to a summit in poor style and proceeds to film his processed food products, with the shittiest music. Tragic indeed.
Thanks for watching and for the feedback, John! Happy trails 👍🏼
For anyone hiking Waumbek, there is a great viewpoint just beyond the summit....... maybe several hundred feet. I don't recall whether the trees were cut, or if it was storm damage, but there was a nice view of the Presidentials. Just want to let people know there IS a view. Hope Dexter is still at it !
That's great to know, thanks for that! And Dexter is starting to slow down (he's 8 now), but we did just get another Belgian Shepherd puppy last spring. His name is Marty, so you'll get to see him in a future video for sure!
