Geography & climbing context
Second-highest Catskill peak, topped by a restored fire tower with wide views over the range.
Hunter Mountain rises above the village of Hunter in Greene County. Hikers reach the fire-tower summit via Becker Hollow, Spruceton, or ski-area connectors. Winter brings deep snow and wind on the open tower; summer weekends are busy. The ski resort occupies the north face—stay on designated hiking routes.
