rip Van Winkle may have gone to the Catskills to
sleep in the o t told Washington Irving classic,but i he were to sneak away to these idyllic
peaks these days or a nap (or perhaps a twenty yearslumber), he would soon be roused by t he screams oadrenaline seekers, soaring along at 50 mph on 3,200
oot long steel cables, suspended between mountainpeaks, up to 600 eet overhead.Yes, you read that correctly...six hundred eet!
The vacation destination more known or i ts musicestivals and summer
camps than its extremesports has recentlyreceived a serious kickin the pants with theconstruction o NorthAmericas longest &highest Zipline tour.New York ZiplineAdventures at HunterMountain opened itsMid-Mountain ZiplineCanopy tour in early2010 a great amilyactivity allowing gueststo zip along throughthe orest canopy, a-laTarzan landing & takingo rom custom builtplat orms, strategicallyand painstakingly hungthroughout the orest,Swiss Family Robinsonstyle.
This pro essionally guided 2 hour tour and thecompanion Adventure Tower were immediate hitswith those looking or a little adrenaline x to goalong with their laid back Catskill getaway. But theywere only the precursor to what the crews at NYZipline were planning. L ike saying youre only goingto take one bite o that double chocolate layer cake
or dessert the Mid Mountain tour and AdventureTower are like a gateway to the longer, higher and
aster ziplines o the SkyRider tour, which opened inChristmas 2010..once youve had that rst taste, youcant help but go back or more.
Rather than zipping through the orest canopy likemost traditional zipline tours the SkyRider tourmostly abandons this approach and seems to ask thequestion how can one get rom this mountain to thatmountain (which incidentally is over a mile away)in the scariest way possible? Obviously the logical
answer is string up a cable, attach a pulley to it and
jump! (Now, or ull disclosure here they do makeyou wear a sa ety harness and a helmet theyre notcrazy (at least thats what they kept telling me).
The rst o the 5 di erent ziplines on this course is thelongest, highest and astest stretching over 3,200
eet across the valley that separates two mountainpeaks. As you can guess, some that approach the rsttake-o plat orm never actually take that daunting
rst step. Con ronted with the reality that they willsoon be hanging600 eet above thevalley foor below andthat they will havebeen placed there bysomeone they just met,is a bit overwhelming.For this reason theydeveloped Zipline PilotTraining School atthe start o each tour.As much a con dencebuilding - get to knowthe guides who willhave your li e in theirhands or the next 3hours session, as itis a training sessionin proper ziplinetechnique. Accordingto Bradd Morse thoughwho designed, built andruns this impressive
acility The training school is an essential part o thetour experience. We get people who are completelyout o their element here, and its a way or us to calmthem down & get t hem ready or whats coming...mosto the time we succeed
That most o the time is why they dont recommendstarting o with the Skyrider tour i you have neverziplined be ore, or have a ear o heights. TheSkyRider tour is de nitely not or everyone andhonestly the Mid-Mountain tour is more than enoughexcitement or many and a per ect intro to zipliningsays Morse. We dont want to scare the crap outo people, we just want everyone to have un...well,maybe a little o both
Tours run throughout the winter months also andoliage season is absolutely spectacular.
