Panther Mountain Location: N 42.103 W 74.444

The same day I visited Giant Ledge, I also hiked up Panther Mountain. Panther Mountain is about 750 feet higher then Giant Ledge, and is one of the high peaks, at an elevation over 3,500.

Portions of the trail are made up of rock stairs up the mountain. Other parts you climbed up rocks, but nothing too steep.
