    What a unique and amazing gorge I really want to go there again when the water is really flowing in the spring! Who else has been there?

    Really enjoyed how you captured the Gorge and waterfalls. Your ability to see things from unusual angles is fun to watch. Thanks for the adventure.

    You captured this beautifully! With all of those stairs, backtracking to pick up the camera, and trying to avoid having the crowds in your shots, this one also looked like it may have been a lot of work!! It turned out really well, so extra thanks for the extra effort this may have taken, and for making the (6 hr?) drive. Really enjoyed it! CNY / Finger Lakes area is very pretty year round.

      Thank you very much! Yes a bit trickier than the normal hike but o so rewarding for me! Especially hearing comments like yours about how much you enjoyed it! I can't wait until my next visit to the finger lakes!

    I think that was absolutely beautiful! I don't know how you climbed all those stairs. It truly was awesome thanks for sharing.

    • @AdamHoyt

      I’m glad you enjoyed it! Honestly the stairs were not all that bad. It was the sloping declines on the way back that gave me more trouble. I should have gone back to the stairs!

    We were there in April. The lower gorge wasn't opened yet. We can't wait to get back. Great video. Good luck with your knee.

    Impressive video Adam. I kept asking how you managed to have it all to yourself. Until you revealed your hard work at the end.

    • @AdamHoyt
      @AdamHoyt  2 роки тому +1

      Oo trust me I certainly did not. I had to be the most intrusive I’ve ever had to be in a hike asking people to wait 30s real quick before passing my camera. Which I never want to do usually! I don’t want to ever inconvenience anyone making the videos but here it was absolutely necessary since I was only able to spend one day here and of course it was a weekend lol

    I love Watkins Glen. Been there twice now. I loved watching your video and remembering my trips there. Very beautiful shots. Nicely done. I just subscribed. You and I are passionate about the same things. I started a channel recently too and am always looking for inspiration. Let’s stay connected!

    • @AdamHoyt
      @AdamHoyt  2 роки тому

      One of my favorite spots too! I'll have to go there again in another season to take it in in a new light! Keep up the great work with your channel and never stop hiking!

      @@AdamHoyt Awesome. Just look up their winter schedule. They close down the gorge trail when it gets too cold. I might have learned that the hard way. ;-) I showed up a little too early in the season the one time. Hahaha. Hey, I just looked you up on Instagram. Definitely going to connect with you over there too.
