These Falls are Super, Man Connecticut's Largest Waterfall, Sort of Kent Falls State Park, Kent 2019 Update: I will be revisiting Kent Falls State Park and taking better pictures in a larger format.

Art Trail Viewpoint: Kent Falls
Kent Falls Viewpoint CT Art Trail Viewpoint Kent Falls State Park, Kent, November 2009 Here's the weird thing about this Connecticut Art Viewpoint Trail, side project of the Connecticut Art Trail: The chosen sites, while beautiful, don't all apparently directly translate to actual impressionist paintings from … [Read more...]
Mount Wittenberg
Mount Wittenberg, 3780 Feet August 27, 2009 ~11 miles solo via Wittenberg-Cornell-Slide Trail from the west # 14 on the Catskills 3500 List I certainly chose a great hike for my first foray into the Catskills. I had already nabbed the highest peak (Slide) and had just come down off of Cornell’s summit (the 9th … [Read more...]
SVP Trails: Wolf Pit Mountain
Wolf Pit Mountain Trail 1.2 Miles, solo July 13, 2009 There is really only one cool thing about this little trail tucked away in Bridgewater – the name. Other than that, unless you happen to live within a few miles of it, or are a similarly-minded goofball and are completing the CFPA’s Connecticut Blue Trails … [Read more...]
Ragged Mountain Trails
Ragged Mountain Trails 6.0 Miles, Berlin Multiple hikes (2007-2009) I'm doing something a little bit different for this write-up.

Cornell Mountain
Cornell Mountain, 3860 Feet August 27, 2009 ~11 miles solo via Wittenberg-Cornell-Slide Trail from the west # 9 on the Catskills 3500 List I realize it is kind of silly to do 39 separate blog entries for the Catskill 3500 Club (since these peaks will be bagged on far less than 39 separate hikes), but that's how … [Read more...]
SVP Trails: The Farm Trails
Sunny Valley Preserve Farm & Nature Trails 3 Trails, ~ 2.5 Miles total, solo July 13, 2009 I've gotten a bit of grief for not exploring Litchfield County enough yet, now three years into this CTMQ adventure. While not necessarily true, I did notice I've not hiked a great deal in an area with some great hiking. … [Read more...]

Slide Mountain
Slide Mountain, 4180 Feet August 27, 2009 ~11 miles solo via Wittenberg-Cornell-Slide Trail from the west # 1 on the Catskills 3500 List # 68 on the Northeast 111 (115) List Unlike some climbs on the New England peak-bagging lists, I've never been to the Catskills before in my life. They're all new to me. I … [Read more...]
