What a great shot of the snow covered Catskills!

Catskill Park Trail Conditions for the weekend on December 13, 14, & 15.

This week’s trail conditions are sponsored by Price Chopper Supermarkets. Expect slippery and snowy trail conditions this weekend with possible icy sections.

We’re in store for crisp and clear hiking conditions this weekend in the Catskills—but be aware that trails may be muddy in sections due to warmer temperatures and sustained rain earlier in the week. Temperatures will range from the low teens to the mid-30s, so layer up! We’ll kick things off with sunny skies on Friday, with highs reaching 28°F and light west-northwest winds at 5-10 mph. Friday night will be mostly clear and chilly, with lows around 12°F and calm winds. Saturday continues the sunny trend, with mainly clear skies and highs near 33°F. Winds will remain light and variable. Saturday night brings a few more clouds but stays dry, with lows dipping to around 16°F. Sunday starts with a mix of sun and clouds, but clouds will increase as the day progresses. Expect highs near 35°F with light south winds at 5-10 mph. Sunday night will turn snowy, with scattered flurries becoming a steady accumulation later. Lows will hover around 29°F, and about an inch of snow is expected. Higher elevations will be cooler.

Mount Tremper is home to some of New York State’s Timberlake Rattlesnakes!

The timber rattlesnake is making a comeback in the Catskills!

Despite a 60% population decline across New York State due to large-scale habitat degradation and targeted persecution during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these resilient reptiles appear to be rebounding in select pockets within their historic range.

Timber rattlesnakes thrive in the rocky, mountainous woodlands of the Catskills. If you’re lucky enough to encounter one in the wild, remember to respect their space. Observe from a distance, avoid disturbing their habitat, and never attempt to handle them. It’s important to remember that timber rattlesnakes are venomous, so maintaining a safe distance is crucial for your safety and theirs.

Timber rattlesnakes provide a vital ecological function and their presence impacts the overall health of the Catskills. The recovery of this species highlights the importance of preserving and protecting wild spaces. By appreciating and safeguarding these crucial habitats, we not only ensure the continued recovery of this remarkable species but also a thriving Catskills ecosystem.
