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...]

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.

Catskills 3500 Club
The Catskills Mountains Eastern New York I'd never hiked in the Catskills before deciding to tackle this list of the 35 peaks there that are over 3,500 feet.

Adirondack 46ers
Adirondack 46ers September 4, 2004 - I've absolutely loved the short times I've spent in the Adirondacks.

The area probably named by the Puritan Colonials. For as you know, the city of Jericho is described in the Hebrew Bible as the … [Read more...]
