"Trail run to the top of the hill in Osbornedale State Park. I'm pretty sure it's called "Silver Hill" based on nearby Silver Hill Road, but I couldn't find confirmation about that." — wazoheat • Mar 10, 2025

"A quick hike of Bear this morning. I hiked in from the east and did a loop hike. The northern side of Bear along the AT is really steep. There is a massive cairn (or maybe former building) near the summit. I determined the summit to be on a herd path in the woods. I was socked in today unfortunately. The southern side of Bear on the AT is gentle and I was able to cruise down it and back to my car. " — newenglandwarrior • Aug 31, 2024

"My second hike of the day. Hiked up from the New York side and hiked up Alander first. Saw a couple of timber rattlesnakes near the summit. After this, I dropped down and followed the South Taconic Tr for a couple of miles. I then headed over to Frissell. I touched the CT high point on the slope of Frissell and signed into the ammo canister there. There were some nice views looking south as the mountain drops off. I then reached the wooded summit of Frissell. Just off trail, there is another army canister. So I signed into that. I then doubled back and made my way over to Brace for the county high point. There are some great views looking westward here. Even though there was a solid cloud ceiling, I could still make out the Catskills. I then headed north and back to the trailhead.

"CT is one of only three US state high points that are the highest point in a state but not technically the summit of the hill or mountain. Meaning that Mt. Frissell CT is the highest point in the state, but the mountain continues up to top out at Frissell’s true summit a bit further north in Massachusetts. From there we went on to find the CT/MA/NY tri-state marker and hiked the ridge out into NY state. Not the most challenging of the state high points, but a fun one nonetheless. It’s not about the destination, or the journey even - it’s about the company! 20/50 now! " — wiweasel • Jun 25, 2024
