    VIDEO: Meandering Down The NPT...UhOh Where Are My Keys?

    The GreyGorilla and I are able to spend one last night on the Northville-Placid Trail, this time on the new section between Benson Rd and the North Branch of West Stony Creek. This section was opened in 2014 as part of the 90th anniversary of the trail. This is a very pretty section that can be done in place of starting at Godfrey Rd or as a loop day hike. I highly recommend it!

    NEW GEAR...I was also able to use the new "Speed Hook" from www.DutchWareGear.com - these are the perfect combo of a whoopie sling and cinch buckle type suspension. I quickly became a fan of these after my first night using them.

    Oh, and also, as we meandered down the trail, about 5 miles from the car, I realized I didn't have the keys to my car! UhOh.....

    Thanks for watching,

    Rob

    I just love this time of year for hanging. No bugs you usually have the woods to yourself. Thanks for showing us a new part of the trail.

    Always look forward to another 12T video. Another great one. Thanks for posting!!

    BTW the keys thing sounds like something I would do. And then scratch my head wondering how I could brain fart like that.
