Hayden

Did a short hike with Howie in the northern Catskills today. We climbed Mount Hayden (a small peak near Windham). Parked at the end of Nauvoo Road at the snow plow turn-around (near the gate). Continued walking on the old woods road up to the ridge at Barlow Notch. Then, I followed the long path north to the top of Mt Hayden. The summit was wooded and only could find some views through the trees. Headed back down after snacking on peanut butter crackers. Took a different route for a short bit. Followed a woods road that paralleled the long path, until I got back down into the notch. Also, followed a short side road which lead to an old quarry site. Not much snow in the woods - only a couple of inches. Made it back to the car ten minutes before it started to sprinkle.

Summit Elevation: Hayden 2924 ft
