It is now officially winter in the Catskills. Currently, the temperature are cold during the day AND much colder at night. Precipitation ranges from none, to rain, to snow, to ice! Be careful of "wind chill" as this can turn a sunny day into a deep freeze! Hikes now require traction devices and, maybe, snowshoes will soon be needed. Conditions at the trail head do not always reflect the conditions on the peaks! Variable trail and weather conditions are a hallmark of these mountains. Some roads and trailheads are still closed and others are closing as they are "seasonally maintained". BE CAREFUL AND BE PREPARED!
