| JRaphaelson | Route Climbed: Alander Mountain Loop  Date Climbed: Aug 6, 2011 | |
| We saw beautiful views that clear, sunny day, but overall the trails aren't very eventful. Definitely a hike you would want to do just for the wonderful views of mountains in New York. | |

| hctrails | Cool night in November Date Climbed: Nov 26, 2011 | |
| Alander Mountain loop was fun. I camped overnight near the south taconic trail on a cool November night. I didn't make it up Brace mountain but I did Alander mtn twice (lost...). The bridge is no longer there but river is still quite passable via rocks. If you'd like to see a video of my hike to get a feel for the terrain, etc have a look at hctrails.com/alander-mtn-hiking-loop-day-1 | |

| Brian Jenkins | Newt Mania Date Climbed: Sep 26, 2008 | |
| With Flanders after tagging Frissell. Had to pay attention on the hike to the ground to avoid all the red spotted newts on the trail. No views up top but had a nice snack in the cabin there which appears to be in the process of being repaired in spots. | |

| Tahawus | Mount Alander Date Climbed: May 17, 2008 | |
| Climbed via the Alander Brook Trail from the Under Mountain Road. Another pleasant dayhike in the Litchfield Hills. Good views of the Berkshires and of the Husdon Valley. Resembles a Southern Appalachian Bald more than a typical New England summit. | |

| Flanders | Summitt Date Climbed: Jun 9, 2005 | |
| Have summitted multiple times. Easy and beautiful each time. Great hike to take the family on, especially young kids. To make the hike a little harder include Frissel and Bash Bish falls for an extended-all day loop hike. | |
