  • Hiking and Private Property
    Catskill 3500 Club Hiking & Private Property May 2021 With the closure of Graham and Doubletop to public access, all 33 required summits are on public property and can be accessed by hiking only on public property or public easements. Nonetheless, hikers should be aware of private lands in close proximity to trails and ridges, and should avoid hiking there without permission. This brief guide is intended to help new and returning hikers avoid illegal trespassing. Contact the aspirants chair at [email protected] with any questions. Updates with current information can be found on our website www.catskill-3500-club.org Kaaterskill High Peak & Roundtop KHP is typically approached from the south, but some may prefer to come in from the west using the snowmobile trail or by bushwhacking over Roundtop. This is fine, but care must be taken to stay on the footpaths coming from the two parking areas on Gillespie Rd. Do not trespass on private land above Cortina Valley to the north of the two parking areas. Drivers should be advised that the road after the first parking area is EXTREMELY rough and is not maintained in winter. Friday Mountain A hunter’s cabin is located on private property along the East shoulder of Friday Mountain, just below 2000’. Please avoid this property altogether when ascending Friday. The best way to avoid private lands in the area is by following the woods roads along the blue track (A). It’s also much easier than heading directly up the mountain! Halcott Mountain Please do not attempt to climb Halcott from the south without permission from property owners.

I’m preparing for craft fairs, cooking, dressing the dogs in blaze orange finery, and anticipating the dreaded holiday family get-togethers. We’ve all been there, sitting around the table with Aunt Gertie and Uncle Jasper, and someone asks you about Your Hiking Thing. After all the requisite jokes about the Bataan Death March and how the only hiking Cousin Fred is doing this year is to the fridge and back to the couch… someone asks you the why question. Why do you do it? Why a list? Why in the winter? And especially why if there is no view at the top? I have said it before: the Catskill Forest Preserve is my temple and my gym. The oft repeated John Burroughs quote rings true for me: I too go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses put in order.

  • Rartioter Vol
    rartioter Vol. XII, No. 1 WINTER 1 9 7 9 BLACK DOME IN 1924 The Catskill Mountains have been known to white men for three hundred years and their valleys have been settled more than a cen- tury. It would seem as if all their summits ought by this time to be easily accessible by well known trails. Yet there are a dozen or more of the higher ones, above 3500 feet, which have no trails to their summits and which are climbed only by the exploring hiker, or perhaps a bear hunter in winter. I recently found another trackless peak, Black Dome, just under 4000 feet--3990 according to the Durham sheet of the United States Geological Survey--on a week-end climb in the northern Catskills. There is no trail over it, and the only paths that reach its flanks are faded out logging roads in the valleys north and south, attain- ing heights 1500 feet below its highest point. Black Dome is the central and highest of the three peaks that make up the Blackhead Mountains, running east and west, Black Head being the easternmost, then Black Dome and the last Thomas Cole. The other two are about fifty feet lower than the Dome. South of them is the valley of the East Kill, north that of Batavia Kill. North of Black Head runs a long ridge to Acra Point, then turning west to Windham High Peak. South this ridge runs through North Mountain and Stoppel Mountain to Kaaterskill Clove. Black Head is accessible by a good trail.
