Loop of Big Indian and Fir from Biscuit Brook TH. P-W trail all the way up then HP to can on Big Indian. Solid herd path between the peaks and back down to the P-W trail. After a quick lunch at the TH I headed over to Denning road to climb up Red Hill via the new trail. I needed the new trail for round 2 of the All Trails challenge and the climb completes the ‘22 DEC Fire tower challenge of 6 towers and round #8 of the Catskill Fire Towers(5). The new trail has a nice easy grade you barely know your climbing up. It weaves through some rock outcrops and appears to be the handiwork of Ed Walsh’s Tahawus trail building crew.
