Slide Mountain View from the Top

Last week I hiked up Slide Mountain in the Catskills with my dog. The hike was a little over 7 miles and took us 3 hours. 

Slide Mountain is the highest mountain in the Catskills region, well over 3500 feet. When we passed the 3500 foot elevation mark there were signs warning that camping was prohibited from that point on. Not sure why, maybe Mike can explain. 

And it wasn't until I got back down that I saw a sign warning against hiking alone. I guess that makes sense if you break your leg or get attacked by a bear or something.
