Waterfall hike

I went to check out some waterfalls in the Catskills. From Route 23A, I walked along Malden Ave and then an old road up the side of the mountain. Visited three waterfalls (Hillyer, Wildcat and Buttermilk falls) along the way. Didn't bother to climb the Kaaterskill high peak, but turned around at the last falls and headed back. Nice sunny and windy day.

Round-trip Distance: 8.9 mi
Elevation Change: 1500 ft
Kaaterskill

Dear Mr. Grog,

Would you have the lat long of the place where you started off on the old road.. Would you have the name of this old road? I would like to do this hike and leads appreciated.
