Mornings With Chris Hiker (Huckleberry Point)




I decided to come back up to the platte clove area for a short autumn walk to huckleberry point.  I have been here once or twice previously and recalled it's a good spot for fall colors.

On the way up, I had to take quite a detour, as 23A was closed.  I would also have to go all the way to Windham to get back to Catskill.  I will do my research next time I decide to make it this way.  I would have to imagine it will be open come ski season.

The colors did not disappoint.  Although they were not as bright as previous years, there were many colors.  The yellows were especially bright.  It took roughly a half hour up and a half hour back down.  No doubt, this is one of the finer one hour walks in the Catskills.
