After a cold hike out the day after camp I ate pepperoni pizza with clam chowder soup. OMG that hit the spot. I dipped pizza into the soup and literally found happiness .

Forget the Big Game! We got a new Sintax77 video!!!

Not sure I would pick Mt. Washington in the winter, but then again, I am sitting at my pc living through your experience, so well done sir, great video as always!

This made Super Bowl day even better! I like how you show that it’s alright to walk away for safety sake

I’ve had to walk away from that same exact route twice after getting up to Monroe. One due to fog and the other due to high winds and blowing snow. It gets so disorienting and sometimes you can’t tell which way is up or down let alone where on the trail you are. I think you made a good decision- Better to live for another day- the mountains will still be there for when you try again!

Hey. Check my channel's videos. I have a video which is 11+ minutes of hiking deep in the Pemigewasset Wilderness, where of many of Sintax77's videos take place. Its nothing exciting, but I took it specifically to show people who otherwise can't get out there what it looks like. I hope you can enjoy it. I have a bunch of others of the White Mountains too you might dig. Be well.

Another Great winter Hike, Thanks

I thought if anyone could beat pancreatic cancer, it would surely be Ricky! :( Nice that this vid was in memory of him, thanks for sharing. :) :)

Hello 👋 my outdoors friend, thank you for the tag along. This was quite an adventure. You made a wise decision in returning to camp. Stay safe out there. 🤗

Another great video. I can’t imagine lugging all that weight straight up ammomusac. You guys are beasts. That feeling of being in that saddle while socked in the clouds and having the LOC appear and disappear like Briggadoon

Wow 7 years! Great vlog and thanks for still taking us along.

Wow what a brutal climb up that mountain! Don't know how you did it with those heavy packs. Snow covered trees & views were stunning. I've had a cheeseburger pizza! Juicy hamburger between two slices of your favorite pizza. So yummy! Great video! Always enjoy them. Take care & stay safe.

Glad you all had a good time. That is what it is all about, enjoying the adventure! Can't wait for my first winter backpacking trip of the season, next month.

Hi Shawn 👋 thank you , hope you're doing well. Stay safe and take care my friend 🙏👍always great to see you in NH 👊

Oh cool! Glad you were back. Hope to see you out there . Come back soon.

You guys are very brave. Thanks for sharing.

Awesome adventure...

Awesome video as always and love the snowy forest and the sounds of you guys moving through it.

I love doing a loop like this with Mt. Monroe added on, really has amazing views and nice scenery. I use ammo up then jewell down

Just awesome trip...

I have a hard time remembering the last time you made camp with daylight! You are a brave man trudging forward but that’s why I love your videos.

Terrific film. Enjoyed every moment of it. 👍

Watched your stone shelter in snowstorm video a long time ago and then it came back on my suggested YT list the other day so I watched it again! Starting to watch this one now and will watch others too. "Cool" adventures. TIP- I learned this from my canoe trip buddy (we've been canoe tripping and hiking together for 50 yrs). He uses insulted, string closure nylon bags that he puts dehydrated food packets in after the boiling water has been added so that they stay hotter longer when re-hydrating. We use them, even in summer, to keep foods hot and the rehydration more efficient. Not sure where he got them, but I'm sure these can be home made for your winter trips! Stay warm!

you and I both used that shelter in Harriman state park the one with the double stone fire stove one on each end and yes no wood to be found picked clean long age that shelter been there for a very long time I stayed 25 yrs before you did thanks for the awesome memories ✌️

That's awesome. Haha, yes - I've had several people complain that I didn't have a large enough fire in that trip. Even with a saw, it takes a _lot_ of walking and time to collect decent firewood up there. :)

This reminds me a bit about you and your friend "Trail Killa". Went to his channel and he has not posted in years. That episode was one of your best. It was crazy what you all did. Then another where water spilled and it as life threatening. Can't remember the episode

Another great video.. love My Washington videos. Never disappointed

Great way to get some "exercise" before the Super Bowl! Thanks Shawn!

Another great winter adventure and I'm glad to see you got another set of collapsible poles and didn't lose one this time, you should order you a small titanium fire box, takes up very little room and doesn't weigh much and they are good to melt snow so you don't waste fuel, thanks again for keeping me entertained while I'm OTR and waiting to unload Monday

Great video man as always!

This is the best of the best right here!

So sorry for your loss! RIP

"When was the last time you did something that you're actually gonna remember in five years." Hopefully this entire year will be remembered years from now as the year I destroyed my comfort zone, and hopefully encouraged others to do the same! A LOT of your vids have inspired me, hope I can do the same for others in the future.

Your morning view was awesome!

Wow, those clouds rolled in!! Another great adventure - already looking forward to the next one :)

Harder going down, on your butt at times. Trail never ends, great loop with Jewell trail.

This was another great Sintax winter adventure video! I like how you added the flashbacks. It's hard to believe that it has been 7 years since your Mt Washington solo winter trip. If you ever want to do a live stream it would be fun. Just let me know when. I'm already looking forward to your next adventure! 👍😀

Sintax is back!!!

Thank you for the inspiration. I think your video style is amazing.

Another enduro hike! You should get Frank to wear a jacket that is a bright colour, not white. He’s very hard to see in the alpine environment which could be dangerous. On my winter camping trips (in Ontario) I’ve boiled water at night, poured into two nalgenes that I then put into an insulated sleeve (in my case, thick socks) and then I put bottles into my boots. The hot water stops my boots from freezing and the sleeve plus boots insulate the water from the cold so in the morning I have liquid water to work with and some to drink at night. Another trick we ice climber so do is to carry our gloves inside our outermost clothing layer that is tucked into our pants. That way our gloves are always warm and don’t get lost. I mention this because I saw your gloves were strapped to the top of your pack.

Great video as always...

This was totally awesome. Frank was great and it was the optimum trip.

Your videos are always so relaxing to watch

Another great video, only discovered your channel, and have binge watched most of your videos.... Already looking forward to the next one. Best wishes from the UK, Ian 👍

You guys are freakin crazy. Mt Washington in the winter? I'm impressed. I wouldn't have survived the first day.

Mt.Washington is a challenge!!! No matter what time of year!!!!

I took a Boy Scout Troop into the North Dakota plains in 20 degrees below zero , not wind chill, with tents, sleeping bags and one meal wrapped in tinfoil.

Keep on doing this vlog sir. I really love it

lol , love the movie Wall Street, great video thanks for sharing

The Magic 8 Ball never lies! Better luck reaching the summit next time! Thanks for taking us along once again. Cheeseburger pizza…oh yeah.

Frank found a new use 4that spare tire set up.. a pillow!! Glad U survived.. more videos..

Great Vid, yeah those white out conditions are scary af, visibility from 100 to 0 in 60 seconds, good call on making the call

Mount Washington is only few hour drive from my place! Love my island I call home

That view at the top was eerie. That was a wild hike up on the ice for sure. I'm glad you guys did not fall in the creek in the beginning. Man that would have been suffering at its finest.

When you are leaving Mt.Washington and its Cheeseburger time. Try the " Grille" its 7.1 miles from Mt.Washington and they make a Cheeseburger that will make your taste buds dance the whole ride home!

Nice video Sintax. Love these deep winter trips in the Whites. Too bad no view on Washington, but at least a nice view from camp.

That was a hard hike, but those epic views were probably worth it. You two earned that Cheeseburger Pizza!

I completely agree with you,do something hard your future self will thank you. I'm closing in on a year straight out on trail hiking across America on the American Discovery Trail and although challenging extremely challenging at times this has been the best thing I've ever decide to do for myself for my mental health and for my physical health. Thanks for another great video Sintax. I think I've watched one of your videos in just about every state that I've crossed on this hike and now I'll watch this video in my final State of California.

There's no better medicine to heal a spirit harmed by the likes of the corrupt, colonial US government than mother earth herself provides. The ancestors of those who walked these lands since time immemorial walk with you. You never walk alone.

Love me some Sintax winter Mt Washington adventures! I think with the lack of high winds, I may have started up to the summit and gauged ad I went. Unthinkably, I am 4 for 4 for winter ascents - twice near 100mph winds.

I almost missed this one. I've signed up for notifications, but didn't get one. Anyway, I am glad you decided to put safety first. A lot of people have made the mistake of thinking they are stronger than the elements, and then they were not. You got a good hike in with your friend, with good scenery. I enjoyed watching it from my bed in Miami Beach, where it was 73 degrees today! Keep hiking!

Can't imagine that climb was fun. Beautiful though

I want to see you make it to the summit!

Know that mountain all too well!!! You coulda made it bro!!!! Next year just follow the cog railway up there, then you got no chance of losing the trail in bad visibility. Great vid as always! Gimme dat pizza!!!

Awesome video! Your boy needs to store his water bottles upside down. Much less of a freezing issue that way as it freezes from the top down. Cheers!🍻

And bury in the snow overnight. Water won't freeze if buried in the snow. Just need to mark the spot where it's buried so you can find it in the morning.

I think that you have to go to Northern Siberia to experience the same conditions on the winter slopes of Mt. Washington. I admire your pluck. I think that the key to a successful winter hike and camp is to stay calm and know that you have a well thought out expedition with a plan b.

Looking forward to see you both hiking in a summer time. Maybe somwhere in Maine?

Yay! I found your channel about a month ago and been hooked ever since! I live in a subburb of Philadelphia and was always afraid to go driving hours away.

According to my thermometer's memory function ot only hit -1F, so it was actually a bit warmer than we anticipated :)

There used to be a store up there that sold snow shoes. It was on the kangumangus highway. Rt 112. It was the store with that big Indian carved in a huge pole. You must have been down the kangumangus highway????? Its the nicest thing you could imagine with the fall foliage colors. The whites, my favorite place in the whole world.

Wouldn’t mind a hike and camp there at maybe the 4,000 feet to 5,000 feet mark on a sheltered outcrop, but I wouldn’t want to undertake a winter summiting attempt. I’ve seen to many videos with those hellish winds for that! 😢😢

Love your videos. Been following your Channel for about three plus years now. Ever consider bringing a drone with you? The DJI mini2 only weighs 249 grams. You could get some great shots, and scout out the area as well.

Cha ever do Carrigan, spost to be best views in the whites,did it in 94 in winter skied up sawyer river rd 3 miles camped and hiked up Carrigan next day ,snowed hard ,cat tracks.big has my fist near summit ,old firetower turned into a viewing platform.

Mt. Washington routinely kills winter hikers; check out the books by Ty Gagne about some very experienced hikers who died on that mountain. Discretion is the better part of valor and good that you turned back.

Could you use a small amount of salt in your water bottles to help lower freezing point of the water?
