  Trailhead to either Mink Hollow or Pecoy Notch trails both of which lead to Devils Path and 3 “35s” Twin Sugarloaf & Plateau.

  Roaring Kill trail is a 0.2 mile connector between Roaring Kill trailhead parking (about 10-20 cars) and Mink Hollow Trail and Pecoy Notch trail.
  
  Mink Hollow Trail traverse the slope of Sugarloaf from the west and intersects with the Devil's path between Sugarloaf and Plateau mountains. Pecoy Notch trail does the same from the east and connects to the Devil's path between Twin and Sugarloaf mountain. This trail and the trailhead is one of the convenient access/bailout points for the Devil's path. As this trail is short I included pictures for both Mink Hollow trail and Pecoy Notch trail. Both these trail are pretty shallow and easy.

  This trail leads to the Devil's Path. Trail is very muddy and very wet right now. There's a fair amount of parking and the road to it is in decent shape.
  
  I took Pecoy's Notch from it to the top of Twin mountain. Pecoy's Notch is no joke. That's a hard trail. Those looking to get Twin knocked off their list and figure this is the most direct and fastest route beware. If you're not conditioned you're gonna have a hard time. From the time you get off roaring kill trail and meet Pecoy's Notch there's lots of scrambles and many times I needed to use my hands.
  
  I did manage to get the dog through it because she's a real trooper. But if your dog is older or clumsy I would not advise bringing the dog.

  Started off easy. The forest and scenery is beautiful. It out to be more of a medium hike for me since there was a lot of slippery spots from the water running down the side of the mountain. Nothing to worry about just make sure to walk on dry rocks not the wet dark colored ones. Those have moss on them and are extremely slippery! Definitely use trekking poles or get a sturdy branch like I did…I hiked to sugar loaf mountain which is 3.4 miles. (wear boots and take big spray)

  The Roaring Kill Trail to Pecoy Notch Trail up to Pecoy Notch has become one of my favorite hikes in the Catskills. It's a great and relatively easy trail with many interesting features to enjoy; beautiful stream crossings, an old rock quarry that used to provide blue stone for NYC sidewalks in the 1800s (that visitors have turned into sculptures over the years), a type of mountain wetland called a fen, views of the Kaaterskill range, and more. To continue along the Devil's Path requires more skill, but to hike to that point and turn back would be a great afternoon spent for even a beginner hiker.
