"Traverse of the Devils Path 4, Plateau to Indian Head, with Richard. Good company and great weather makes for a nice day on the peaks. Besides the two guys doing the DP end to end for the NEU8 very few other hikers out and about." — Nimblefoot • Sep 14, 2023
"Ticking off an odd twosie of Plateau and Halcott for the month of June. The black flies were quite active on the summit of Halcott in the late afternoon making the descent challenging with the bugs getting behind my sunglasses until I got down lower." — Nimblefoot • Jun 1, 2023
"Sauntered across the DP-4 from Mink Hollow PA to Prediger rd PA with Mimi, Miyon and Peter. Most of the hikers we encountered were heading west, doing the DP end2end, while we were east." — Nimblefoot • Apr 22, 2023
"Mimi, Rebecca and I met at the Prediger road lot then we shuttled over to Mink Hollow in Mimi’s little Kona. Another day where the snowshoes just stayed in the car and only a pair or two of micro spikes were carried. The spikes were put on higher up on the mountain as we encountered short patches of ice that eventually became continuous. Our descent was nearly as slow as our ascent as we put safety ahead of any speed at this point do to the ice still rather hard with the lower morning temps.
Down in Mink hollow itself we met up with our friend Barbara who didn’t need Plateau but did need the other three peaks of the DP-4. To boost our spirits even more she came loaded with treats like muffins, wraps, bagel sandwiches and coffee from the Circle W market in Palenville. Our scamper over Sugarloaf, Twin and out & back from Indian head went much easier and faster as the warming temps softened the ice we encountered allowing better grip. On some of the easier downhills we actually ran with utmost confidence.
Our lunch stops were the view ledge on our way up Sugarloaf and the summit of south Twin where enjoyed Barbara’s treats in the sunshine. Since it’s still winter once the sun g..." — Nimblefoot • Feb 20, 2023
"Mimi and I did the classic Devils Path 4 to close her month of January. We started off with the snowshoes on doing an up and back of Plateau then on the initial climb of Sugarloaf we switched to the micros. Basically just crunchy old snow with some ice here and there all day. Threw a lot of limbs off the trail the whole day and found the remains of a rather large fire right on the trail on the top of South Twin(which many folks confuse as the true summit). Unfortunately we didn’t spend time clearing it, to discourage this foolish habit, as we had to get the peaks done and get Mimi back down to central NJ before bedtime. Surprisingly she had the energy, after three days of hiking, to literally run down from Indian Head. Once down low on the Jimmy Dolan Notch trail with all the rocks, roots and water hazards combined with minimal snow she slowed to a more reasonable pace to complete our day in nice weather with occasional low clouds but no precip." — Nimblefoot • Jan 30, 2023
"T-bone hike of Twin and Indian Head from Prediger road TH followed by a T-bone hike of Plateau and Sugarloaf from Mink Hollow. Approximately an inch of crunchy snow on Twin and Indian Head providing good grip with minimal slip. On Plateau and Sugarloaf the snow was a little more than an inch and softer but still offering grip. Micros carried but not deployed. Light flurries in the morning that became heavy snow showers in the afternoon making the day feel more winter.

"Out to get the 4 peaks of the east end of the Devils Path on two separate hikes. Got a brief light shower at the beginning of an O & B of Twin and Indian Head in the AM. An afternoon rain shower encouraged me to opt out of doing Sugarloaf therefore only getting Plateau while totally soaked which was quite refreshing once the rain stopped." — Nimblefoot • Aug 26, 2022

"It was such a beautiful day to be outside! Bugs were absent. No sketchy spots to worry about. Rocks and root trail. Got a little off track a few times! Nice views of Sugarloaf. Had to search around for dial on the tree. Saw one person heading down." — lfrancois • May 11, 2022
"Did an out and back of KHP and it’s little buddy Roundtop from the TH off of Platte Clove road. The profile of the two is seen from numerous points in the Catskills. The trail portion had some wet spots especially on my way back as the day warmed up. Took the herd path over to sno-mo loop trail, crossed it then up the SE ridge as usual. More folks are doing Roundtop for the Cat100 or the Grid as there are more obvious herd paths between the peaks. Completed the day with a hike up Plateau as it’s right nearby and needed for my 4-season grid(round #10)." — Nimblefoot • Apr 29, 2022

"I parked my car at the end of my hike (Prediger Road) and arranged for Smiley's Taxi to pick me up and drive me to the beginning of my hike (Mink Hollow). The driver told me I was the first hiker of the year! I hiked up to the Devil's Path and went to Plateau first. Then, I backtracked up to Sugarloaf, which was a very difficult climb. It became icy and rainy towards the top. Once I summited Sugarloaf, things became easier. Then I continued to Twin, where I met a guy from Long Island and his dog. Between Twin and Indian Head, I met up with a group of Catskill 3500 club hikers who I talked to for a bit. There was a guy named Steven who was also finishing that day. At the base of Indian Head, I met another group who was very nice. After Indian Head, I backtracked back to Jimmy Dolan Notch and met up with that group again and they made me a pole arch and took pictures with me to celebrate my finishing my winter 35.
