October’s featured Catskill Social Series hike is West Kill Mountain.Westkill Mountain is the 6th highest peak in the Catskills and the highest point on the Devil’s Path trail (nearby Hunter Mountain is taller but the trail doesn’t pass over it’s summit). This trek is a great introduction to the Devil’s path on one of the gentler sections of the famous trail.
Join us on as we hike past waterfalls and great views to the evergreen clad summit.This is a mostly moderate hike despite the lofty summit at less than an arms length shy of 3900 feet. There are one or two ledges that require minimal scrambling.This hike is being presented in conjunction with the Adirondack Mountain Club.
