Beautiful mature forests, extremely low tourist density, great wildlife populations, no parking fees, no rangers breathing down my neck, no posted signs, this is easily my favorite wilderness area in the USA and I've seen nearly all of them. The mosquitoes are also not quite as bad as the rest of the northeast for some reason.
>>2792060correct nyc is the best place in the country
Cool, why do you feel the need to brag about it? Westchads don't feel the need to post locations of their Wilderness areas.
>>2792060>I've seen nearly all of them>803 wilderness areas in the USsure thing bro
>>2792068Eastern forest is a vastly superior biome to anything west except maybe the PNW. Most of the West is just a bunch of desert and cliffs with only like one tree species if there even are any. Looks like Hell.
>>2792078>Most of the West is just a bunch of desert and cliffs with only like one tree speciesthis guy lol
>>2792079Why would you want to walk around some barren empty space and rock walls in your way constantly?
>>2792081Why would just make innane comments with no basis in reality constantly?
>>2792078You lose this argument every time you try, and it's starting to become sad and embarrassing to watch.
Fucking lol, OP is the guy who moved to Colorado and couldn't figure out how to go /out/
>>2792060>extremely low tourist densityYeah idk about that one bud. I went up to Lake Placid during summer and that place was filled to the brim with tourists. I can only imagine how much more it is in winter when skiing opens up. The only places that felt dead were the small towns on the outskirts, anything near one of the big lakes in the adacks felt like it was extremely popular
>>2792109I've lived here for two years and have barely seen another human outside of Lake Placid proper during any time of year.
>>2792105Never been to Colorado but it looks like shit. Literally nothing to do but ski.
>>2792094Oh I'm sorry, I guess it's not empty, there's maybe a cactus here and there to remind you you're not on Mars.
>>2792112Yeah sure pal, you posted a hundred times in a thread bitching about barren empty space and rock walls preventing you from getting to your google map trailhead.
>>2792115Just going by every single photograph I've seen Colorado is uninhabitable unless you carry rapelling gear everywhere. I have no interest in going there.
>>2792060Correct. Never leave. Stay in NY forever.
>>2792113
>>2792116>Colorado is uninhabitable>5 million people live there
>>2792121Nearly all of that in Denver and surrounding metros.
>>2792124>Nearly all of that in Denver and surrounding metros.>total pop of CO; 5.7 million>total pop of Denver metro 2.9 millionIts barely half of the total population you fucking retard
>>2792126I'm including all the cities in that strip where the mountains begin. That's all one place to me.
>>2792127>hurrdurrr im including everyone cuz im a fucking retardshut the fuck up you stupid cunt
>>2792128On Google maps it's one gigantic metro zone going N-S of which Denver is just one part. Everything West of that just looks like rocky cliffs useless for any kind of human activity.
>>2792130>On Google maps>just looks like rocky cliffs useless for any kind of human activity.I mean really? thats what you're gonna go with. You must be 14yrs old. Holy fuck you're a retard.
>>2792131So are you claiming that all those cities are fake and there's 3 million people living out in the mountains? What's your point you dumb fuck?
>>2792132no. im claiming you are a retard. its an easy claim to make.
>>2792134This is what all of Colorado West of Denver looks like. Just shitty rock climbing. The only good places out west are the places like where Twin Peaks took place, which isn't a whole lot of it. Sure the population density is lower out there, but that's because it's a shithole just like the Arctic or Sahara.
>>2792147retardation confirmed
>>2792147That's not true at all. The tallest mountain in Colorado can be hiked without any mountaineering experience lmao. A lot of the 14ers can be done as well without mountaineering.
>>2792150Hiking? Sounds like a waste of time. I do primitive camping and bushcraft and survival skills training. Mountains are gay and there's nothing up there.
>>2792153Kill yourself.
>>2792153>I do primitive camping and bushcraft and survival skills trainingbullshit you stupid cunt. you've never left the house. fuck off retard.
>>2792170When someone uses the term "14er" I automatically know they have never swung a hatchet and probably don't own a single firearm.
>>2792109I usually head out towards the Fulton Chain lakes. They get tourists out there in Old Forge and Inlet, but it's not a total fucking nightmare. Lake George and Lake Placid get the worst of it. It's really easy to get away and find bumfuck nowhere up there, though.Luv me Adirondacks.
>no desertWhy would I pick only lush forests when I can pick places that have both lush forests and deserts nearby?
