Catskill High Peaks 3500 Club
#4 Thomas Cole - 3953 Feet

Accessed by the Black Dome Range Trail, Thomas Cole Mountain, named after the Hudson River School painter, is the westernmost peak of the Blackhead Range. While no views are available from the densely forested summit, the approach from Barnum Road in Maplecrest offers some nice views along the way.
The Catskill Mountains 3500 series features some of the 33 highest peaks on public lands in the Catskill Mountains. These caches are all located on the public property of the Union Transportation trail. Hours are Sunrise to Sunset. As the trail passes very close to private property, please stay on the trail.
