- William on Lower Platte Clove Hike Today August 20th 2010, I hiked the lower and part of the central part of Plattekill Clove. It was a fantastic hike, with great weather, blue skies etc. In answer to your question, I believe the name could be upper Hellhole Falls. Check out the book picturesque Greene County (The Catskills), which is found in the Kingston NY Library or the town of Ulster Public Library in the reference section, hope I've been some help. PS This book has a great section on the waterfalls of the Plattekill Clove.
- duffy bach on Lower Platte Clove Hike This brings back so many memorys for me because I lived at the bottom of Platte Clove Road. I have trout fished, been ginsang hunting, gone deer hunting, and have run around all of the surrounding mountains.
- Smm on Lower Platte Clove Hike Buenos Dias. Excellent hiking for sure. However, it should be mentioned that your entry point as described traverses private land and town property, which is posted and enforced (this is the town's drinking water supply). Beyond this area is the preserve, which makes entry to the area somewhat of a predicament. Parking can also be an issue, with the local enforcement issuing tickets with more frequency in the past few years. Also, this is not a marked trail and is not recommended for inexperienced or solo hikers. Trail can be treacherous, so creek may be a better option on some parts of hike.
- Darcy on Lower Platte Clove Hike Wow, you are some photographer! I've been here (Platte Clove) a few times, and to many of the other spots as well, especially Kaaterskill Falls, and you really capture the beauty in your photos. Thanks so much for sharing them.
- Richard Serviss on Lower Platte Clove Hike Hello. Can anyone tell me the name of a waterfall off of Platte Clove Road. The waterfall I'm referring to is found if you go east on Platte Clove Road (heading downhill) and heading towards the stone bridge (before your get to the parking area on the right). Does anyone know the official name of the waterfall on the north side of the bridge? (The Devil's Kitchen will be on the south side of the bridge). Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

- Tim Golly on Lower Platte Clove Hike As a young kid (7 yrs. old last time I was there) in the 50's we used to stay at the Police Camp. Fond memories and we did a little organized hiking but forbidden to go in the woods on our own due to the bears. Was reaquanted as I met someone from Saugerties who frequented Platte Cove snowmobilling and knew everything about the area. NICE! Hope some day to get to revisit the area. I recall how treacherous that road was, particularly if you were going south from Platte Cove to West Saugerties. THANKS!
- George Roberts on Catskill Camping It would be nice to add a link to north-south campground. State run campgrounds are the best in my experience and I've stayed here many times. All reservations are through reserve-america.com and there are some nice pictures, maps and details about the campground on my website here: http://gr5.org/catskills/
- Chas on Catskill Hiking Here is a link to Sullivan County campgrounds many with boat and canoe rentals. Catskillhikes.com Text from the link: The Sullivan County Catskill region maintains thousands of acres of campgrounds with fertile streams and lakes to fish and scenic mountain trails to hike. We have some terrific state campgrounds, all with clean water and beautiful trails. Our personal favorite is Mongaup Pond - 275 acres of wilderness, with a 122 acre pond. They have a boat launching area, canoe rentals, a handicapped accessible fishing dock, a fish hatchery, and scenic mountain trails. Head there for some of the most breathtaking fall foliage viewing ever.
- Steve Byrne on Catskill Hiking Need to know where to rent a canoe near Livingston Manor?
- Hillel on CatskillSearch.com Make Over Great compositions! The Catskills are a favorite destination of mine--love to hike there! A couple questions: 1. 'Just a curiosity--what equipment do you use for these photos? Do you carry a tripod with you in the backcountry? Can you recommend one? 2. Would you consider making some of your shots available in high resolution for computer backround landscapes? Best Regards, Hillel
