From Biscuit Brook Trailhead on West Branch Road in Claryville, NY (close to Frost Valley YMCA), will take trail up to Big Indian Mountain summit canister, from there bushwack east to Fir Mountain summit canister, then bushwash SSE downhill to rejoin the original trail part way down and hike out to the trailhead parking.  9.2 miles total; about 1/3 of this hike will be bushwacking although previous hiker postings say there are informal herd/hiker paths for good parts of those sections especially betwen the two peaks.  Must be fit and experienced hiker comfortable with bushwacking.  I'm doing this hike for my Catskill 3500 Club membership.  Call or email me if you are inteested.

Meeting point is Biscuit Brook Trailhead on West Branch Road in Claryville, NY 12725.  Just north of Frost Valley YMCA.  Can be approached from Big Indian, Shandaken and route 28 from the north, or Claryville, Grahamsville or Liberty from the south.
