Have you ever brought someone new out for their first High Peaks hike? What was your experience? Which mountain did you choose? I think if we had to do it over, I wouldn't have started Adam on Sawteeth, but he did an amazing job!

We just did Sawteeth via Scenic Trail yesterday. 1) We saw a young male buck 🦌 jump off rock ledge into Ausable Lake. Incredible splash noise! He swam across lake to other side. 2) I “used” to freeze up on ladders 🪜. Something that has helped me tremendously is I focus on counting down from 60 backwards in my head. Lastly, those trails are nooo joke!!!

Kudos to your friend who did his first High Peak! My only attempt was Big Slide, I never made it to the peak and at 11 pm (started at 7am) when my friend and I finally made it back to the Garden our families were hiking in to find us. It is never fun to tell the DEC rangers you are ok and they don't have to search for you. Beautiful views. Thanks for filming on what sounds and looked like was hard conditions.

That place is beautiful can't wait to hike there one day. Climbing up the what rock looks really fun.

Always appreciate your (and your friends') perspectives on these hikes! I have reservations at the AMR lot for Saturday and my friend (who has 18 of her 46 left to go) and I are planning on doing Sawteeth. This video confirms my plan to do it via the Weld trail both ways and thus avoiding the ladders and false summits, haha (hopefully the part between the summit and the Weld trail won't be too bad sans snow and ice).

Thanks for sharing your adventure. Glad no one got injured. Hope everyone's feet stayed dry being so wet.

Enjoying your videos! Thanks :)

Ladders, wait till you hit the ladder between Gothics and UWJ. Another solid video Glad Adam got his first high peak in, hopefully he's hooked and will do a few more, if not all of them. Do you guys plan on finishing next year? Any idea which mountain you plan on finishing on?
