Catskills
Red Hill Fire Tower from Denning
This new route to Red Hill Fire Tower is a little longer and tougher than the classic route, but so much sweeter.
The Sketchiest Hike in the Catskills
This is the sketchiest hike I’ve done in The Catskills — and the most fun
Panther Mountain from Woodland Valley
The Woodland Valley route to Panther is not a trail section that many people use — which just makes it all the more appealing.
Poets Ledge
This route to Poets Ledge on Kaaterskill High peak is very steep but very rewarding.
Mombaccus & Ashokan High Point
This steep, difficult double-peak hike is so rewarding on so many levels.

The easiest and most beautiful route to Lone and Rocky — but this is still one of the hardest hikes in The Catskills
