"Five of joined Tony for a classic Hikers Anonymous hike known as the Triple Biscuit…South Doubletop, Big Indian and Fir. A loop hike out of the Biscuit Brook TH that is generally not a fan favorite. South DT, alternative to the private Doubletop, is a lot of effort and mileage with little gain…no canister, minimal views. Fortunately for us Tony’s wife put together a large zippy bag of homemade chocolate chip cookies for each of us to carry plus an extra bag to share at the end of hike. Tasty motivation. We lucked out that most of the snow that fallen 5 days earlier was gone allowing us to bare boot all day. Several days ago folks were using snowshoes. The nice weather, sunny and cool temps, with a happy group of hikers made the nearly 11 hr trudge quite enjoyable. The ramps we found on S-DT are getting bigger but need more maturing before harvesting. For some reason we didn’t see the large field of them like previous years. The two water crossings, Biscuit and Pigeon brooks, on our way up to S-DT were a bit challenging with the water running high do to recent snow melt and rain showers. " — Nimblefoot • Apr 17, 2025

" Mimi, Joanne, Terri(Joanne’s friend) and I met at the end of Gillespie road for a late morning(11am) saunter of Roundtop and KHP. The late start was to wait out the morning rain showers and enjoy the hike in the sunshine. Joanne took care of navigation so I could just hang out in the back which was nice. We maintained a steady casual chat- filled pace up to the cairn on RT then over to KHP after dropping straight down from the viewpoint. After signing into the can on KHP we headed down to Hurricane ledge for lunch with a view over to the Devils Path, Plattekill and Overlook. On our return we dropped down around RT noticing all the emerging ramps in the numerous moist sunny spots." — Nimblefoot • Apr 6, 2025

"Two more for the 69th round of the Cat 35 and the single season Spring round(#18 & #19/35). Out and back from Shaft road. Herd paths are in great shape even the usual swampy spots were easily managed. The spring ramps were just starting to poke out of the soil in a few spots." — Nimblefoot • Apr 4, 2025
