Platte Trail Map Competition


Inspired by the awesome hand drawn trail map hanging in Platte's bar, Winter in the Catskills in conjunction with Plattekill are having a competition! Draw Your Own Trail Map. All you have to do is draw your version of Platte's terrain. Best interpretation wins. There are two age groups: Under 14 and Over 14. The prize for each category is a pair of lift tickets good this season or next.

So, you can find drawing supplies -- crayons and paper at Plattekill. Or else, do it at home and email it to me jenkabat@gmail.com. I also promise to post more inspiring stories about Platte's trails and how they got their names. Anyone know why North Face was originally called Barney's Bluff? Or the first name of Sundown...

The best entries will appear on WITC and also be framed and hung at Plattekill.
