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. -

Surveys can assist municipalities to take a more comprehensive approach in planning for and around identified resources. Such planning might include considerations for planning ordinances in areas with cultural resources, planning for economic development, listing in the National Register of Historic Places, local historic district designations, or specific preservation projects. -

Indian Head Mountain Loop
Indian Head Mountain Loop Round-trip distance: 7.0 mi Elevation change: 1573 ft Summit elevation: 3573 ft Difficulty: Difficult, with two challenging near-vertical ascents up cliffs Summary: Experience the picturesque beginning of the Devils Path, at first winding through level, shady hemlock woods, then beginning its ascent over Indian Head off the Old Overlook Road. Parts of the Indian Head profile involve steep sections, one extremely steep, as the summit is approached from the east. Of course, these are the areas with the magnificent views. Directions to Trailhead: From Hunter, Take NY 23A east, and turn south on Bloomer Road (County Route 16). From the junction of County Route 16 and Elka Park Road, continue left on County Route 16 (Platte Clove Road) for 3.9 mi to Prediger Road. Turn right 0.4 mi to road's end. Park along the side of the road. The trail begins to the right of the private property, through a narrow opening in a log fence. You are beginning the eastern end of the Devils Path, one of the most challenging and rewarding areas for Catskill hiking. Historians say that the name Devils Path comes from old fears of the unexplored area above the Great Wall of Manitou, looming 1600 ft above the Hudson River Valley. Native Americans and European settlers alike avoided the Catskills, for behind that wall in the dark hemlock forests the Devil himself lived amongst wild animals! The Devils Tombstone Campground is 12 mi west over the Devils Path. Some hikers today say the name comes from the roller-coaster nature of the 23-mile Devils Path.
