Great video fellas🔥
Killing the winter 46 game, glad someone is taking the effort to share the glory of winter in the Adirondacks.
Would love to see a complete list of the equipment you're using for winter hiking/climbing! With the season ending, it's time to shop discounts lol
Never thought of doing the trap in winter nor did i ever want to. kiddos to you both.
Absolutely loved this! Have done the trap dike in the summer and I’m dying to have a winter go at it. This only fueled my passion for winter time in the Adirondacks. Hope to catch ya on the trails one day, maybe stop in at the shop too! Thanks for the awesome posts
Ohhh I would have loved to be here for this!!
Nice hike ! On my bucket list. Thanks for posting.
Great video. Like the cinematography. Always enjoy getting to see the pics when I’m not hiking.
Just moved down south for work. Was at 25 peaks or so before I moved.
That winter, snow capped, mountain sunset brought back some memories. Never know what ya got until it’s gone!
I was thinking of doing Colden as my first hike back from a torn ACL, and this just cemented it for me! Your videos are always fun to watch dude. Can't wait for the next!
This video is amazing. And u know what?! U are amazing,too!!!
Awesome 👌🏼
Love it! What a great time! The Adirondacks in Winter is so beautiful.
Super Amazing..
Great video 👍
Great video
ur insane!!!
tight video
Lots of great videos man! What's your trick for keeping the camera batteries alive in the winter? I've had lots of trouble with my GoPro and DLSR when the temperatures drop in the mountains. The best thing I've found is taking the batteries out and pocketing them but obviously its not the most practical. Looking forward to seeing more!
Very nice! What snow pants are you wearing?
Didnt know adirondacks had a challenging winter hike out there. This one seems the roughest main stream I've seen on this channel
KrazyKrzysztof Well, it’s not a hiking trail! It’s not by any means official. The Adirondacks have 100’s of much more challenging climbs than what I showed you today.
When nobody disliked the video...
It's obvious why. Amazing Video!
Great video! I noticed that you guys brought touring ski boots, touring skis, snowshoes, mountaineering boots, ice tools, and crampons. Would you ever consider doing that kind of climb in your touring boots? Just curious if that would be feasible.
Great vid.
On the way back from Marcy Dam, why not take the Old Marcy Dam ski trail for the last mile (instead of the hiking trail)? I have always thought its more efficient and it avoids the need to put on skins.
Any way we can hope for more ADK ski content?
Christo Realov Didn’t really think about it! Maybe I will next time!
Such epic music for such a casual romp on a hill
Does anyone know if this route has an officially known winter ascent speed record time?
Is Trap Dike a good first climb for winter/ice climbing? I’ve done a lot of rock climbing and difficult hiking, to give you a sense of where I’m at, I just rope soloed Half Dome via the snake dike route. It was cold, windy and runout as all hell up there. Made me think I should try trap dike this winter.
Yeah, It's great in late winter, but make sure you have the adequate equipment and that you go with someone who has done it before.
Why didn't you guys skin the whole way to the climb and climb in your AT boots?
I personally did not know how to backcountry ski like that back then. I do now! I’ve gone off and on Colden multiple times now with only skis
@@JonathanZaharek I respect knowing your limits and applaud your new found skills. Well done.
That’s much harsher in the winter. I go up that route at least once a year in the summer and love how you don’t need any climbing gear.
would you ski down trap dike ?
Perfect conditions, with the right type of skis, and the right partner, yes
