Climbing Catskill's 35 high peaks, 4 seasons, 4 in a row!

4-season 35’r! Climbs of each of the 35 Catskill high peaks, at least once in each of the 4 seasons, 4 seasons in a row.

On Saturday, August 27th I became a 4-season 35’r, wrapping up my climbs of each of the 35 Catskill high peaks, at least once in each of the 4 seasons, for 4 seasons in a row.

I had the pleasure of finishing with a wonderful group of hikers, most of whom were accomplishing (or had previously) accomplished much larger goals than I - congratulations to the 2 grid finishers and everyone else who was completing their Spring single-season.

  • Days on trail: 40 hiking days
  • Total peaks: 140 + a few extra here and there
  • Total distance: Lot’s of miles (maybe I’ll count them all up later)
  • Total elevation gain: Lot’s of elevation (maybe I’ll count it all up later)
