(Jul 12, 2024) What role does social media play in the lives of children today, and how controlled should it be? We asked, you responded. Amy Feiereisel comes in to talk about new legislation and how North Country families deal with social media. Also: The DEC is urging hikers to stay away from many High Peaks trails because the heavy rains have made water crossings impassable.

Mike Radomski's  journey started with Phelps Mountain, and he soon found himself captivated by the physical challenge and beauty of the mountains. Despite initially underestimating the demands of hiking, Mike adapted his training and skills, eventually completing both the regular and Winter 46er challenges. This transformation from an athlete to a dedicated hiker provided him with fulfillment through the physical and mental challenges of hiking. Facing career burnout and wanting to spend more time with his sons, Mike semi-retired and began documenting his outdoor adventures on YouTube. His involvement in the Allegheny 18 challenge led him to create a community around it, eventually launching the Western New York Hiking Challenge. This self-driven challenge covers multiple trails across the region and has grown significantly, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. It now boasts 3,500 participants and a supportive Facebook community of 65,000 members. Over five years, the challenge has raised over $330,000 for local environmental causes and has helped many individuals gain confidence, lose weight, and manage anxiety and depression. The community has become a platform for people to stay active, reconnect with family, and cope with various life challenges. Mike continues to expand his initiatives, offering skills classes, guided hikes, and additional challenges like winter and birding challenges. His emphasis on preparedness and personal connections has inspired many to pursue outdoor adventures and adopt active lifestyles. Despite struggling to scale his activities due to personal involvement, Mike aims to expand regionally and considers using video content for broader impact. His recent 23-day Grand Canyon rafting trip highlights his love for long-term immersion in nature.

Happy New Year everyone! This week I'm kicking off 2024 with a Summit Sessions in the Santanoni Range...kind of.My guest this week, ADK native Kyle Lang, joins me to discuss the world premeire of his new original play, "Times Square". This story takes place at the beloved trail junction in the Santanoni Range of the Adirondack High Peaks known as Times Square. The Times Square WORLD PREMIERE is January 26 & 27 at 7:00pm at the Ticonderoda High School auditorium in Ticonderoga, NY.Adirondack 46'ers get free admission! You won't want to miss this one!Synopsis: Tom guides his friend Jordan to Times Square; not the one in New York City, but a small clearing deep in the Santanoni Range of the Adirondacks. From this junction, Tom waits for Jordan to complete three grueling climbs and finish New York's most epic hiking challenge: the 46 High Peaks. As he waits for Jordan's return, Tom experiences countless colorful characters--teens from a summer camp, a pair of former lovers, two barefoot hikers, and a man looking for his dog, among others--and points them in the right direction as they try to navigate the area's frustrating maze of unmaintained herd paths. But literal direction is not the only aid these eccentrics need, as they try to cope with their own misery and mishaps. Times Square is a story of hilarity and heartbreak, of unity, and divergence.Get more info here at the Facebook group hereConnect on Social Media:Find the podcast on social media @46of46podcastFollow James on instagram @jamesappleton46My Website:WWW.46of46.COMPLANNING TO HIKE THE 46 HIGH PEAKS?

This year on this special Christmas edition of The 46 of 46 Podcast i'll be putting an Adirondack twist on the classic "How The Grinch Stole Christmas" with the new story of Crank the Adirondack Hermit.How Crank The Adirondack Hermit Stole ChristmasIn the frost-kissed realm of the Adirondack High Peaks, where snowflakes dance and the north wind speaks,Lived a hermit named Crank, with a heart so small,Scorning the winter hiking season, Christmas and all.Crank's cave overlooked Marcy, with its cap of white,And the MacIntyre range under the moon's soft light."Cursed be the hikers with their festive cheer,Invading my solitude, year after year."But this Christmas Eve, as the stars twinkled with glee,Crank hatched a plan, wicked as could be."I'll steal their merry, their gear, and their feasts,We'll see how they like these unwelcome beasts."Down to Marcy Dam, he slithered with spite,Where campers slept soundly in the frosty night.One by one, he snatched sleeping bags, boots, and sacks,Leaving behind only footprints in the snow's soft tracks. But not content with just one mischievous spree,He thought, "There's more to be done, much more by me."To Lake Colden he went, under the moon's soft glow,Stealing boots and jackets from the slumbering folks below.By the light of his lantern, he worked through the night,Taking what he pleased, but keeping out of their sight.Next to the feldspar lean-to, where hikers dreamt of High Peaks,He stole their maps and compasses, leaving them for weeks."Not a trail will they find, not a path will they know,In circles they'll wander, in the heavy high peak's snow."His heart chuckled as he imagined the morrow,Campers waking to Christmas with sorrow.But as he pilfered and plundered through the silent night,A strange feeling arose, a flicker of light.Amidst his cold caper, he paused to behold,A family sharing a blanket, young and old.Laughing and singing, a carol so sweet,In the face of adversity, they wouldn't admit defeat.Crank's heart, though icy, began to melt,For a warmth like Christmas he'd never felt."These people, they share joy in the face of the cold,Perhaps there's more to Hiking and Christmas than what I've been told."With a newfound resolve, he returned every little bit,Under the glow of the stars on a trail so brightly lit.And as the campers awoke to Christmas Day's light,They found their belongings, their faces bright.But Crank didn't stop with just righting his wrong,He joined the campers, Hiking along.Sharing hot cocoa and stories so grand,In the heart of the wilderness, hand in hand.On Marcy's high summit, Colden's trap dyke,In the MacIntyre range, he now found joy in the hike.No longer just a hermit, hidden from sight,But a friend of the mountains, sharing Christmas delight. He helped a lost hiker find her way to the peak,Shared his knowledge with campers, no longer so bleak.And with every kind deed, Crank's heart grew wide,In the love of the mountains, he now took pride.And so in the Adirondacks, where the wild rivers flow,Lives Crank, once a hermit, in the Christmas glow.Amongst hikers and campers, he shares his tales so grand,A part of the wilderness, forever hand in hand.So if you wander the High Peaks, and a friendly face you seek,Remember old Crank, once so sullen and bleak.In the heart of these mountains, where adventures never cease,Crank found his Christmas spirit, in the Adirondack's sweet peace.Connect on Social Media:Find the podcast on social media @46of46podcastFollow James on instagram @jamesappleton46My Website:WWW.46of46.COMPLANNING TO HIKE THE 46 HIGH PEAKS?

This week I dive into the life lessons I have learned thanks to the greatest teacher I've ever had, the Adirondack Mountains.The mountains will teach you a lot about yourself and real life if you let them…1. No one can get you to the summit. It's up to you to do the work.2. One foot in front of the other IS the formula. This will never change. Too tired to get back down? Too bad. You still have to walk back whether you want to or not.3. The mountains don't care about you. If you disrespect them you will be put in your place.4. Your bank account, status in life, skin color, age, sex, etc are all irrelevant. The mountains don't care. You will either get to the summit or you won't exactly the same as everyone else.5. Climbing a mountain is hard. But so rewarding when you finally make it to the top. But if you quit easily you'll never experience the top.6. If you turn around because it's “too hard” the mountain doesn't care. It will remain unchanged. The only one who loses is you.7. Every mountain has its place in the storyConnect on Social Media:Find the podcast on social media @46of46podcastFollow James on instagram @jamesappleton46My Website:WWW.46of46.COMPLANNING TO HIKE THE 46 HIGH PEAKS?
