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.

  • WHITEFACE SKI MOUNTAIN on SCHEDULE for 2020 SKI SEASON New Lifts and Snowmaking Improvements Will Be Ready for the 2020-2021 Winter Season
    Date: 7/15/2020 Contact: Elise Ruocco, [email protected], 518.523.1655 WHITEFACE SKI MOUNTAIN ON SCHEDULE FOR 2020 SKI SEASON New Lifts and Snowmaking Improvements Will Be Ready for the 2020-2021 Winter Season Wilmington, NY – The Olympic Regional Development Authority (ORDA) begins its summer construction season at Whiteface Mountain with a range of projects that will deliver greater lift capacity, enhanced snowmaking and a more robust online reservation platform. The first phase of the Midstation Lodge will be complete for the start of the 2020 ski season. The lodge will be a terrific spot for skiers and riders to take a break and warm up. It will be welcoming guests back this winter after the historic lodge burned to the ground last November. The old Bear Den lift is being replaced with a new quad lift system that uses a conveyor to make passenger loading easier. The lift is perfect for the beginner and families. It is located next to the Bear Den Lodge and will be completed this fall. The snowmaking system is being improved. New pumps are being installed in the expanded Ausable River Pump House, and on-mountain pipe and snow gun modifications will improve the system’s efficiency. (https://www.whiteface.com/side-trax/whiteface-mountain-upgrades) “Our team is working hard on these projects and getting ready for our guests,” said Aaron Kellett, Whiteface General Manager, “We know that the families who visit Whiteface will experience a world-class mountain that offers something for everyone.” Season passes are currently on sale, with the best prices available until September 2nd, 2020 and includes an assurance program that protects pass purchasers from the unexpected.
