Starting from Woodland Valley Campground outside Phoenicia, New York the trail climbs Whittenberg Mountain (3780'), Cornell (3860'), and Slide Mountain (4180') in a 14.1 mile loop. On Saturday September 21, I completed the loop in 2 hours 44 minutes 19 sec. The previous record of 2 hours 47 minutes 10 sec was set by Ben Nephew in 2010. A full description can be found at the link below along with the GPS track.

Trap Dike is a semi-technical ascent route on Mt Colden, the "historic mountaineering route", according to https://www.adirondackexplorer.org/stories/trapdike

Car-to-car specs are about 12 miles and 2800' of gain and loss, with most of the gain on one 30-40 degree scramble on the Dike, and a steep descent on the Arnold Slide. A route map by Phil Maynard is here.

The Briarcliff-Peekskill Trailway is a 12-mile route that runs from the town of Ossining to the Blue Mountain Reservation in Peekskill. It is park of Westchester County Parks. This particular park was built on land originally acquired in 1929 by the Westchester Parkway Commission for the construction of the Briarcliff Peekskill Parkway.

"thinnmann" posted the route:

Just fell into an almost perfect 10K loop, with 1500' elevation gain in 2.9 miles.

Start in Margaretville at the Galli-Curci Theater, run up the Dry Brook Ridge Trail to German Hollow, take German Hollow Trail to Arkville, and finish the loop back to the start on NY SR-28.

Nothing better to do after a snow-starved ski day....

The ski slopes of Whiteface Mtn are the location of a VK race in July of each year since 2016.
