| technicolorNH | trash pickup  Date Climbed: Oct 15, 2012 | |
| Wasn't planning on doing this mountain but after Hunter I saw the trail for this on the side of the road and I said "why not?" The first fifty minutes was a sharp uphill climb but the top was a nice walk along a wooded mountain with occasional overlooks here and there. Weather was atrocious and went back down with a plastic trash bag full of trash left at the overlook. Hopefully someone else can get the cans I missed (I was already taxed just trying to keep the bag from falling apart). | |

| Had to break trail in about 5 feet of snow. I made it though, and got to jump down the steep sections, which was a blast! | |

| Climbed with Sugarloaf and Twin via the Devil's Path from Elka Park Road. A good fall hike with some great foliage this time of year. A steep climb to the summit from the notch. Not much in the way of views. | |

| Last one of my three days there. Steep, tiring hike first thing in the morning. Up from Mink Hollow Road. Easiest hiking across the top ending in two amazing views. Really enjoyed this one. Only butt-planted once on the way down. Rock wet from thunderstorms the night before. | |

| came in from the roaring kill trailhead. hike was certainly as described by others, steep and taxing. wanted to climb sugarloaf too but the snow started down hard, but made for a very enjoyable return watching the trail become invisible beneath the snow. | |

| With nothing else to do, I took a friend up on an offer to "go for a walk". This was my introduction to what has become a most enjoyable way of life. | |

| Any time of the year the two mile summit is worth the hike. I backpacked solo in th esummer and dayhiked it with N. Ohanian in the winter. | |

| Great camping, if you can find a clearing. Steep hauling a pack up either side, but great views on the north side. | |

| I've hiked this peak numerous times. I sure do miss the Catskill's, people don't realize how remote parts of NY can be. | |
