I had originally planned on pressing on to do Cornell as well, but I was worried I’d be too tired for the journey back down and figured I should play it safe. Conditions were spectacular: it was a beautiful, nearly cloudless day. The trail was somewhat muddy but mostly in good condition save for some patches of ice near the peak and some downed trees.https://adils.page/posts/hiking-slide-mountain/Fri, 23 Feb 2024 18:04:43 -0500https://adils.page/posts/hiking-slide-mountain/I decided that, since I live near the Catskills anyway, I might as well try and do the Catskill 35ers and try and join the Catskill 3500 Club. On President’s Day (02/19/2024) I decided to hike Slide Mountain. I had read that despite being the tallest of the Catskill High Peaks, it is a relatively easy hike and it is also one of the four peaks that the 3500 Club requires be climbed twice, once in winter.https://adils.page/posts/hiking-in-colorado/Sun, 31 Dec 2023 18:00:00 -0500https://adils.page/posts/hiking-in-colorado/Last week I spent two days hiking near Boulder, Colorado. It was sort of an impulse decision trip: I had a few days off that my wife didn’t have off and I wanted to do something more than just sitting around the apartment all day waiting for her to get back. I knew there was a ton of hiking around Boulder so that’s what I settled on. I was pretty scared at first because I hadn’t ever been out hiking on my own before and I was planning on doing longer and more difficult hikes than I’d ever done before.
