You’re so brave to be there by your self 😂 I’ve been to the water fall and swim on top of the lake. How can I get up the mountain to see you last two views? Thanks
lol Diana. I am not sure which are the two views you mean (does it include the picture at the end?) but I will give it a try. Holler back if I get the wrong one. And I assume you are not hiking in the woods. So, to get to the second to last one you can take the Millbrook Mountain Carriage Road (MC on the maps) to the end. At the end there is a quick walk up some rocks and you get that awesome view to the south and east. You can see Skytop Tower in Mohonk as well. The last view, it is the picture at the end, is simply the southwestern side of the lake itself, which you can walk around. There is an unmarked side trail that takes you to the ledge. If you are bored one day, skip around on this video, it is a timelapse of the entire route, that may help too. czcams.com/video/lGvn993UqWc/video.html.
Contax! Nice. Are you shooting film? I sometimes feel an itch to try film, ha. Thanks for the kind words too, really difficult to miss a shot in Minnewaska!
Nice work Lou! Heading back up to Minnewaska on Thursday, I live in the area. For those with time limitations, the walk to Awosting Falls from the lower parking lot is short, easy and rewarding. Pro tip: if you want one of the best Grandma's pizzas in the area, stop by Rino's in New Paltz on the way back to I-87. Nice people, delicious pizza :-)
Hey Esther. Such a wonderful trail! I parked at the visitors center, here is a nice write-up from the Hiking Project on the route itself. www.hikingproject.com/trail/7022927/gertrudes-nose-loop. Enjoy!
You are the luckiest man in the world! So beautiful! The universe has been very kind to you. Take great pictures!
Thanks Kenneth! Was a magical day for sure, very lucky to be there for it

Beautiful video, I love Lake Minnewaska, but I never ventured into those hiking trails.... I have also seen huge snakes there. Superb work!
Those snakes are legit! Thank you for watching!!
Going to this trail this coming weekend, thank you for showing the trail and I know what to expect.
I hope the weather stayed nice, if it did i am sure it was beautiful!
a masterpiece thank you
Love that place so very much, thanks for watching and commenting!!!
Beautiful place I'd love to hike there!
Top notch!
By the way as a photographer myself I must praise your flawless sense of composition I have manual Contax cameras with awesome Carl Zeiss lenses

One Author, two Books, the Bible and Scenery. Just look around, t he whole earth is full of His Glory. Many thanks for your masterpiece video...
Minnewasaka is truely beautiful in the fall. And the parking lot is generally full in an hour from park open!
Agreed! And definitely worth taking a day off from work to go on a weekday and avoid the worst of the crowds

Enjoy! I also had a great food experience at Taco Shack in New Paltz, cool town. They must be hurting with covid though, sigh
Lou Poulas Cool, I love tacos, hopefully they’re serving outside. Oh man now I gotta make 2 stops 😎
Where is 'lower parking lot'? I've never been there and planning a trip this summer. Thanks.
@@mathalwaysii It’s the lot to your right after you enter the park. Enjoy!
Nice
What trail is this? Where did you park? Thanks for the video. Amazing view. Planning for this summer, never been there.
