Alpine Endeavors

Reviewed By davidpG7788PP

I always marvel at how good a day of climbing a rock can be, at any level. Alpine Endeavors makes that a possibility any time. They know safety, they know the local cliffs, and they know how to make customers feel like the day was custom made for them (because they can be!). Proof in the pudding? I proposed to my wife while ice-climbing, with an Alpine guide at our side and just returned with our young kids, too!

Probably the best Documentary on gospel music ever made now in restored 4 K print thanks to Dennis Doros and Milestone Distribution. Good Crowd in Spite of bad Weather enjoyed lively q&a with director George Nierenberg after the film, which was part of the monthly Music FAn Film Club series. This is the way to see movies!:)

Widow Jane Mine

Reviewed By Drew0414 - Montrose, United States

I’ve come here many time with my friends and we always have a blast. There is the usual area that you see in pictures on google that is somewhat explorable but if you venture off to the side to these approximate grid coordinates (41.8415360, -74.0963730) then you will find the real fun. The entrance is large but not as big as the main area. In here you can travel far underground and be met with the cold air, darkness, a few bats and some exhilarating/one of a kind areas that are incredibly worth the exploration. Bring a couple high powered flashlights and some extra batteries just in case. There is no cell phone reception once you venture below ground. It is easy to walk and completely flat. You can probably venture at least a mile or so deep into the cave. There are remnants of an old mining company and their cables/machines. There is plenty of graffiti and there are even some abandoned buildings inside quite a ways down. The path will zig and zag a little bit and the farthest I’ve ever traveled was a little over a mile I think down to a spot where there is stagnant water. The sounds and overall feel of this gem of a cave is half of the excitement. I spent probably 3 or 4 hours down there exploring and investigating every nook and cranny possible.
