"Peter, Mimi, Barbara and I engaged in a traverse of the Six from Moonhaw Rd to Peekamoose Rd. Beautiful day but didn’t encounter another soul, nor the Easter bunny, until more than half way down from Peekamoose where we passed a couple with two dogs heading out. Snow rapidly disappearing, remaining 6” mostly above 3500’ and between peaks." — Nimblefoot • Apr 9, 2023
"Peter, Mimi, Barbara, Francine and I had a wonderful saunter across the Six starting from Moon Haw and ending at Peekamoose rd. Under a clear blue sky we bare booted up to Friday and over Balsam Cap then on our way over to Rocky Peter and Francine decided to put on their snowshoes for ease of travel. After lunch on top of Rocky the rest of us put on the big shoes which would stay on until way down off of Peekamoose where it was too many rocks showing through the thin snow. Lovely warm day where the only other hikers we saw was a small group doing the Nine in the opposite direction.

"A loop of the 6 peaks, including the bushwhack 4, from Denning PA. After the summer-like temps last week it’s right into Fall with temps starting and ending in the 20’s this week. Took the fisherman’s path all the way out to do a whack up to the canister on Friday then it was mostly herd paths across the range to reach the Peek-Table trail. Out and back to Peekamoose then up to Table before the descent down to the P-E trail and back to Denning PA. Motored all day, with only a brief stop at the 4 canisters, chasing the clock and the pending sunset now an hour earlier. No headlamp was harmed on this venture and only one small pinky puncture from a stray branch stub." — Nimblefoot • Nov 14, 2022
"First up was a saunter up to Roundtop from Gillespie road via woods road and bushwhack. Then an out and back to the canister on KHP via herdpath after dropping straight down from Roundtop. Back to the car and off to Moonhaw road PA for a quick climb of Friday where I encountered numerous hikers descending as I was attempting to motor uphill to the turnoff at the pregnant tree. Quick visit to the canister then descend with urgency." — Nimblefoot • Oct 27, 2022
"Getting Friday and Balsam Cap from Moonhaw under blue skies in the morning. Finished the day getting Sugarloaf from Mink Hollow under cloudy skies. Got rain for 15 - 20 minutes on my descent back to col then it gradually stopped as I got back to the car basically soaked to the skin. Didn’t see a single hiker out today." — Nimblefoot • Sep 19, 2022
"A twosie of Friday and Balsam Cap from Moonhaw PA in the AM then headed further up Peekamoose road to hit Ashokan HP in the afternoon. Nice blue sky in the morning that slowly transitioned to fully overcast by late afternoon with light sprinkles falling. The warmer temps brought out the black flies." — Nimblefoot • May 20, 2022
"Getting Friday and Balsam Cap for the month of February. Ran into two friends, Yong Ae and George, on my way up Friday. George had already done BC so was heading out then I caught up with Yong Ae again on BC. As always she offered me half her sandwich, smoked salmon/avocado/jalapeño peppers on a bagel, and her warm tea. Dull Hillsounds were just barely enough on the ice at upper elevations otherwise mostly bare ground or patches of old ice. Had time to do a quick ascent of Overlook afterwards and get home at a decent time prior to the big storm. Plenty of ice on the trail but was able to dodge most of it so the Hillsounds stayed in the pack." — Nimblefoot • Feb 24, 2022

"Started at Haw Moon trailhead up a logging road on a chilly (zero degrees), but sunny day with Utica crew, Maryellen, and Nancy. Followed path made by club hike the day before. Used spikes at mile 2.5 and the rest of the day. Crazy bushwhack between mountains- Balsam Cap. Top of Friday at 11. Top of BC at 12! " — lfrancois • Jan 16, 2022

Thank you all in the group for such a crazy fun hike.

"The Catskill 6 starting and ending at Denning TH. Worse part was the long slog out the Fishermans Path to the start of the whack to Friday. Once on top then it was a fun but wet and slippery traverse over the other five peaks. After hours of bushwhacking and herd paths it was refreshing to get onto the P-W trail to reach Peekamoose and finally Table. The cloudy sky with occasional burst of brightness from the sun never darkened nor dropped any rain drops so nice comfortable weather for a hike." — Nimblefoot • Sep 16, 2021
