JustKeepHiking

My name is Joe Sweeney and welcome to JustKeepHiking where I encourage you to get outdoors and do some hiking and backpacking and don't let your age deter you. I believe that age is just a number and if you're reasonably fit you can do the things that I'm going to show you on my videos. Of course I strongly suggest that you do so with the blessing of your personal physician.

    Were you (Saturday 7/20/24) in a climbing group wearing green shirts? Bumps on a log was the group name I think.

    You make excellent videos. I like them all. I'm a retired videographer for the government. I appreciate the detail you put in your videos. I'm almost 70 and been hiking for 3 years. Love it. I will do this hike this year. Keep up the good work. I'd make videos of my hikes, but I'm slow enough on the trail and stopping to set up recordings would slow me down even more.

    @@joesweeney7216 joe, my husband and I are coming back to the Whites end of October. We're 59, former runners, but our knee meniscus surgeries stopped that activity years ago. We did Willard this past June. Would you recommend Pierce or Mooseilake(sp)? We're in good shape, but not superstars like these 25 yr olds running up and down the mountain. Any input would be appreciated. Thank you. Jane K.

    My husband and I find you so inspiring, as we are almost 60 and have just started hiking the Whites. Every hiking video seems to be 25 yr olds, which are fun, but we can't run like they do. Do you have any new videos planned?

    I am planning to hike up unknown pond trail, 2.2 miles to the tent site, set up camp, then hit horn, bulge and Cabot. Spend the night at the tent site and hit Rogers Ledge in the morning for a sunrise. Is this what you guys did, minus the ledge? Do you happen to know if the ledge is good for a sunrise?
