Start the New Year with a guided bushwhack to the 3509 foot summit of Halcott Mountain in the Catskills. Distance-wise this is one of the shortest Catskill High Peak hikes, but not the easiest. The 1800 foot elevation gain to the summit includes some very steep terrain and will require traction (spikes/trail crampons) and snowshoes.
This hike is being presented in conjunction with the Catskill 3500 Club and the Adirondack Mountain Club. We strongly encourage you to join one or both of these clubs.
