Hi There! Come for a snowy winter mountain hike in the Catskills and have hot cider, tea or coffee on top of Twin Mountain at 3,653 ft and enjoy the expansive views of the Catskills Wilderness.
We'll meet in Tannersville (very close to Hunter) at 10:15 am. Once we've met and ensured everyone has all the needed gear we'll drive 10 minutes to the trailhead and set off for the 1,500 ft climb up to Twin Peak. After hot drinks and some snacks we'll traverse along the ridge crest to Indian Head (if we have time and the group wants to) for more views and photos before heading back to the cars to complete the loop.
The hike is an adventurous 6 miles and can be quite icy. I will provide Micro Spikes for traction, an occasional handline for a few steep sections, and trekking poles if desired. You'll need to bring warm clothing, a small backpack, good hiking boots, and an adventurous spirit. We'll go regardless of weather so be ready for whatever conditions we'll find. The hike is arduous and will be a very full day for most people. We'll be back to the cars by 4 pm where I'll share all the photos and videos i've taken with you. Should be an awesome, epic, beautiful day.
I'm a fully certified, trained and insured guide with 9 years professional experience. If you find the trip exceptional, gratuities are appreciated but not expected.

Hi, I'm Jack. I have 9 years of experience guiding backcountry trips around Alaska and North America. I've traveled over 25,000 miles by bike, sea kayak, foot, raft, and skis, become the youngest person to solo Denali and put up first ascents on 6,000 meter peaks in the Himalayas. I call Alaska home, but i'm currently based in New York (and have spent over 2 decades exploring the catskill mountains). I love sharing wild places with people for any amount of time. Cliche as it may be, of all the beautiful places I've been, I remember most the time spent with great people.
I have extensive professional training: i'm a wilderness first responder (medical training), a certified wilderness Search and Rescue professional, and a trained rock guide through the AMGA. Fun and safety will be top priorities. Excited to meet you!

The Indian Peak Wilderness is one of the most gorgeous places in NY -- beautiful old trails, stunning views, and tons of history. We'll be hiking a piece of the Devil's Path -- called the most rugged trail in the Northeast (but don't worry, it's not nearly as bad as it sounds).

We had such a wonderful time on our hike with Jack, and we can't recommend this experience enough. We had never been on a winter hike before, but we felt extremely safe and well taken care of with Jack. He provides spikes for your shoes and poles for walking and he comes prepared with hand warmers and other supplies in case you get very cold. Jack has a ton of experience leading hikes and backpacking trips all over the world, so we felt very confident in him. He consistently checked in to see how we were doing/how the pace was/if we needed anything. It doesn't hurt that he's a very nice guy! Don't hesitate in booking this experience!

A+ experience! Jack is an awesome guy, super professional and knowledgeable, and gave us options on where to go and what we wanted the experience to be like. 100% worthwhile, highly recommended for anyone looking for an adventure in the Catskills. We had great convo all the way up to the peak, and it was a life-saver (probably literally) to have an expert to guide us and provide all the equipment, and the most satisfying hot chocolate ever, throughout the trek. This was probably the best hike I've ever done, can't recommend this enough!

Jack is a wonderful guide: responsive to messages, on time for the meeting, and very knowledgeable and experienced. I’ll admit I was nervous to go on this hike. I had done some strenuous hikes in the past but never in the snow and freezing weather but Jack was encouraging and always made sure that we were okay throughout the hike and adjusted pace when he observed us slowing down or getting tired. He gave good tips on keeping warm, hiking through snow, and was very friendly and conversational. He goes at whatever pace you’d like to go and never pressured us to reach a destination.
Jack also adheres to covid regulations and is very good about asking if it’s okay to take his mask off to eat or anything.
This was an experience I’ll never forget and would definitely go on again or even recommend to other people. It was an arduous hike so come prepared!

Jack is most definitely the ideal guide, companion, and story teller! His presence made for an absolutely wonderful experience! He is very resourceful— providing hot drinks, equipment, laughs, and a breadth of knowledge about the surrounding wilderness and wildlife. You can rely on him to stay comfortable and safe during the journey. He ensures that the experience is at your own pace, making it comfortable for both beginners and advanced hikers alike. Had a blast, thanks for the fun!
