| Hotoven | Nice Warm up hike Date Climbed: Dec 26, 2008 | |
| This was fun to do in the winter given all the snow we had to get through, and it being a short hike. So it took a while but was just a warm up for the next day. Perfect little warm up hike, but it was fogged in at the top. | |

| MtnLdr | I Hate Catskill Trails Date Climbed: May 2, 2009 | |
| Maybe I'm just spoiled, but the majority of trails (maintained) that I traveled out West were not so rough (aside from the length and altitude.) These trails out here are closer to 2nd class hiking. I did love the approach from the East, lots of great class 3, and steep, steep sections of trail. Not so great a view from the top. Wittenberg, and the ridge to Cornell was better | |

| Climbed via the Curtis-Ormsbee Trail from Winnisook. My first time in the Catskills. An easy hike up a Slide's gentle western slope. The summit was fogged in and there was still some early morning rhyme ice trees. | |

| Lips74 | White Christmas Date Climbed: Dec 25, 2007 | |
| Climbed the easy side Christmas Day 2007. About 3 inches of snow at the base increased to 8 inches on the summit. Clouds above 3500 feet obscured any view. Still a nice day to be hiking and to break out the snowshoes. | |

| I took the LONG route to Slide over Wittenberg and Cornell, and I would say you do the same! Then made a loop and returned to Woodland Valley through a short cut and the Phoenicia-East Branch Trail | |
