Trail: Ashokan High Point

Date Hiked: 10-22-07

Conditions: Dry and clear.

Special Required Equipment: Nothing necessary other than water and a snack, though trekking poles helped reduce slipping on the loose rocks on the steeper downhill sections.

Comments: Like a beautiful late summer day, though unseasonably warm for late October (About 75 degrees!); foliage color highly variable: peak in some higher areas but lots of green leaves still visible elsewhere; definitely atypical for October in the Catskills; but with global warming (?), who really knows, maybe this will become typical!
