So true! We could literally hike until we die with all of these super long lists that are so crazy long!
Well, for one I can say that I watched start to finish. One patch they need is for completion of all the trails. But it would take a lifetime to achieve. As for the one who won't change the listed names even when proved wrong, well, that's just nuts. I'll never hike any of these being the other side of the pond, but I've enjoyed watching. A lot of work has gone into this Adam. Thank you for sharing. PS I hope the knee is fully recovered.

Thanks for going the extra distance and watching that whole thing. It was soooooo long lol. But hopefully moved quickly. OO gosh there are so many trails I'm not sure anyone could do that. Though they do have the patches for each state so maybe you could just collect them all! O it will always be a continuous process but it is healed up good enough that I can hike with it again which is good enough to me!

Incredibly I know of even more NY challenges. There is the Moriah challenge, the 4-3-2-1 challenge in the Indian lake region and the ADK 6 pack that combines 6 peaks with 6 breweries. Great video.

Oo I’m sure there are several I missed. There were a couple of trail tracing challenges I tended to not include. I did see this one but chose to focus on the peaks. I made the choice to only do the major major trail chasing challenges. Like I also skipped the ones around Waterville valley.

Wow Adam. That was amazing. I have NEVER seen all of those lists/trails in one place before. Very well done! Fun fact about the five 4K mountain in VT. They are all on the Long Trail! I am also proud to say that my dog, Ruari, is among an elite group of dogs to have completed both the E2E on the LT and the 48-4K NH lists! Unfortunately, Ruari is not allowed to completed the New England 4k list since they don't allow dogs in Baxter State Park :( Amazing video again!

Well I can tell you Jeff why you have never seen that because it was so hard to find them all lol. Literally as I was cutting together the video I would find more and have to keep adding, the video kept growing and it was very frustrating lol. Shoot well maybe you two should think about getting your long trail side to sider patches!

Great video, just what I’ve been looking for! Any chance there’s a way to access the lists in the description without facebook? I don’t have an account but unfortunately it won’t let me view the lists without one. In particular a link to the Wicked Wild list would be helpful. Thanks!

Glad you found it useful! So that’s what was tricky about wanting to link everything. I literally covered so many it would make too crazy long a list of links in the description. Those documents on Facebook I linked consolidated all of the lists in one place for each state for the most part. A google search for any of the list names should be able to find you it’s direct website. Unfortunately for the wicked wild 25 you just might actually need Facebook. There is a separate website with some descriptions but the main curation and official checklist are only contained in the creators Facebook group he made for the wicked wild 25. His separate website does not have this material and only a few blog posts. But maybe it has contact info so you could message him for the pdf file of the list: www.gregwestrich.com/wicked-wild-25

If you're calling the Poconos "mountains" then you should definitely consider the high peaks region of Maine a major mountain range. It's just as impressive as the Adirondacks
