There are a few more on Flickr.

Sometimes I couldn’t bring my DSLR, so I had to use my iPhone. Here are shots on the way to and from the canopy tour, some of which were taken through the car window as we drove:

Catskills Trip, Part III: Hunter Mountain

Stef — Wed, 24 Aug 2011 04:17:09 +0000

No one we spoke with at North-South Lake had ever heard of Huckleberry Point or Poet’s Ledge (two mountains that my friend and I had looked up before our trip), so we hiked another mountain that they recommended: Hunter. It was awesome. Once we got back home and had internet access, we learned that it is the second-highest mountain in the Catskills. Not bad!

Hunter Mountain info:

Distance: 5.40 miles

Elevation: 4,040 feet

Elevation Gain: 2,219 feet

First view of the surrounding mountains!

It’s hard to tell, but the paths are really steep and uneven

At the top! This is the trail to the firetower.

I seriously love that wildflowers grow everywhere in the Catskills.

Catskills Trip, Part II: Woodstock

Woodstock is a really small town. I wasn’t sure what to fully expect, but it was definitely nice: peaceful (ha, ha), creative, and colorful. There would have probably been more to photograph had we not gone on a Monday–maybe live music or something–but I still had a nice time.

These stones were laying out for people to play with :)

Wildflowers are everywhere, and I love them (this one wasn’t taken in Woodstock, though)

Third and final camping post will be up soon! Hunter Mountain :)

Hiking Upper Platte Clove:

Hiking to North Point, from the North South Lake campground (I used my friend’s point & shoot because it was raining when we started the hike :( Then, of course, the weather turned beautiful once we started):
