Really great video for some fall vibes 🍂 my mom and I are going to Salem this October and we’re so excited but nervous for the crowds..we’re going in the middle of the week to hopefully avoid weekend crowds. What time in the morning do you this is best to get there and have the place to yourselves? :)

Get up as early as you can. I’d say if you can get there between 6:30 - 7 am you’ll have it mainly to yourself :)

Salem is a total tourist trap, especially in October. I remember 8-10 years ago I went on October 1st. I had to park 1/2 a mile from town in somebody's backyard for $20. It was so off the beaten path that I almost couldn't find my car. I would say it is so over-rated but you would have to include such cities that have become over-run by tourists as Newburyport, MA or Portsmouth, NH. I used to constantly go to dine and visit these beautiful cities, but now it is even hard to find a parking place. You have to wait too long to get into a restaurant or bar, when before you could just walk in and sit down.

Yep. I live in one of the border towns. No one who lives here would actually go there. There are much better and nicer places to see in the area.

What a great video! I live in south Alabama and took my teenage daughter on a summer trip to Salem and Boston. We spent almost two weeks in the area and visited almost everything you highlighted. I chose to stay at the hotel Salem right on Essex Street and it was great walking out the door and being in the heart of the attractions. Thank you for sharing your experience.

Better to go in the “off season.” You can still do almost everything there is to do in October, just cheaper and far less people. Also, the city is finally talking about upgrading the Witch Museum. It’s been unchanged since the last time I was there over 20 years ago. You’re also lucky you got some good weather. Record amounts of rain in ‘23.

What a wonderful video? For all the times we’ve trekked up to the lodges (always taking the Alum Cave Bluff Trail) we’ve never stayed at the lodges. Always looked around, picnicked, and headed back down. Loved your documenting the lodges, meals, hikes, sunrise, all in an excellent video. The last time we hiked up there we had to make the trek in the rain but still loved every minute. Thank you for posting! Subscribed.

I'm 70 years old now. I've been visiting the Linville Gorge since I was 14 years old. I've hiked and camped down intio the gorge next to to the Linville River twice. I went swimming in the river on a 90 degree day and the water was still ice cold. The Linville Gorge is my most favorite place on earth.

I live and hunt in south Alabama along the Gulf Coast, our hunting camp has caught black bears on our game/trail cameras. The local game warden has told us we have between 4 and 6 in the area. Not a single sighting of a black bear by any person has been reported. We have only seen them on our cameras.
