July 11 @ 7:00 am – 4:00 pmOn Saturday, July 11, at 7:00 a.m. meet for a special run in the Catskills—the Slide Mountain/Burroughs Range Loop. This 14.5 mile loop offers 5,000 feet of elevation gain and crosses Slide Mountain (the highest peak in the Catskill range), Cornell, and Whittenberg. Meet at the Woods Bridge commuter lot in Katonah at 5:00 a.m. for the 2-hour drive to the start or you can meet at the Slide Mountain West Trail Head, 2027 Oliverea Rd, Phoenicia, NY 12464 (see Google Maps ››) at 7:00 a.m. We will make a counterclockwise loop starting shortly after 7:00 a.m. and finishing in the afternoon. Bring plenty of water, a filter if you have one, money, and a change of clothes so we can stop at the Phoenicia Diner afterward and eat all the foods. This is a challenging but fun adventure.
Last time we ran this course was June 22, 2024

Just a reminder, it’s tick season. Shower and check your skin over after runs, use a bug spray with Deet on your shoes, legs, and arms before a run, and I recommend light-color socks or calf sleeves that have been sprayed with Permethrin, Picaridin, or other bug repellent and allowed to dry. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of doxycycline. For more information about tick bites and tick removal, visit cdc.gov.
Help keep the trails clear by reporting downed trees or other conditions that the park should know about.
