The Timp

"A nice warm Fall day for doing the trio of Dunderberg, Bald and The Timp in the Harriman/Bear mountain complex. Followed up with a quick jaunt up Sugarloaf Hill before heading off to run some errands." — Nimblefoot • Sep 25, 2020

"Attempted to do West mountain from 7 Lakes drive but the road was closed off at the traffic circle behind Bear Mtn Inn. I drove around to try get to the PA from Rt 6 but that was also closed off. So back to the Inn and down to Doodletown area, which fortunately only had a few cars, to park and take a longer route to the peak. Since I was coming from this side I decided to throw in The Timp as I needed both for the Hudson Highlands peak challenge." — Nimblefoot • Apr 14, 2020

"Ah the first day of spring, at least for peak baggers, and it’s time to get out of the house despite the big lock down. Because of my wonderful alpine start of 10:19 from home managed to get one of the last parking spots along RT 9W in the Doodletown area. Did a loop of Dunderberg, Bald and The Timp, where I had lunch, using trails, woods road, ski trail and bushwhack. Managed to catch a sight of two Pileated woodpeckers swooping through the trees. Many hikers out enjoying the fresh air and not following the stay home protocol. To finish the day I headed over to the Silvermine Lake parking lot, which was full of cars, to do an out and back of Black mountain via woods roads and the AT/R-D. A rather large beaver house along the shore of the lake, I don’t think I’ve seen it before, they can be quite industrious." — Nimblefoot • Mar 22, 2020

"Enjoying a wonderful Fall day, breezy with a sunny blue sky, in Harriman and Bear Mountain SP. Visiting the summits of Dunderberg, Bald, The Timp and West Mountain. From Timp Pass and the summit the NYC skyline stood out prominently down the Hudson. To the northwest was the easily spotted shelter on West Mountain, my next objective." — Nimblefoot • Oct 12, 2018

"Squeezed in a loop hike of The Timp and West mtns on a rare day off from work. Nice sunny day with the temp reaching 80*. Managed to red line the 1777 trail in the process getting closer to completing half the trails in Harriman." — Nimblefoot • Apr 11, 2017

"Out for some fresh air so did a nice loop of Dunderberg mtn, Bald mtn and The Timp from the Doodletown area. Combination of hiking trails, woods road, ski trail and bushwhacking." — Nimblefoot • Nov 27, 2016

"A nice easy loop over West mtn and the Timp with Sharon to burn off some of the Xmas calories. The very mild temps allowed for a leisurely lunch break on the Timp while taking in the view of the Manhattan skyline." — Nimblefoot • Dec 26, 2015

"Did a loop hike of the Timp-Torne and the Ramapo-Dunderberg trails from Jones Point. First peak up was The Timp which I had to myself for a lunch break with an excellent view." — Nimblefoot • Jun 25, 2015

"Playing in Harriman SP on a cloudy damp day with snow flurries reducing the nice views. Loop hike of Dunderberg, Bald and The Timp for the HV grid. A little bushwhacking at the end to tighten up the loop and save time." — Nimblefoot • Feb 26, 2015

"Hiked up on my way home from doing Pound Swamp & Jackie mtns in Harriman. I had the open summit to my self with a nice breeze and clouds blocking the bright sun. Very nice view." — Nimblefoot • Jul 8, 2013
