Sunday, January 19, 11:30 AM - Hike Mt. Pisgah
Mt. Pisgah is the site of a former ski area in Andes. It's one of the highest peaks in Delaware County and is the westernmost of the 3000 footers in the Catskills. We'll climb an abandoned ski trail, getting great views.There may be snow and/or ice, so bring snowshoes and a traction device such as Microspikes. Dress in layers of clothing made from a wicking material and expect the possibility of a steady wind and cold temperatures. Also bring plenty of water and lunch or a snack for the summit stop. Total climb is about 1000' with a one way distance of about 1 mile to the summit and then we'll do a bit of exploring.To register, call Wendell George at 845-254-4546 or email wendell@catskillmountainclub.org.Directions: From SR 28 in Andes turn north on Gladstone Hollow Rd. and continue 2.8 miles to Grommeck Rd. Turn right and go to the old ski lodge parking lot.
