Vromans Nose in Winter

Andy | March 21, 2010

On the second day of spring I went hiking up Vromans Nose. A short little hike, it’s a favorite in Schoharie County for it’s sweeping views of the agricultural lands below. Below is a picture of Vromans Nose, as seen from Middleburgh Cliff.

With all of the snow melt, the Schoharie Creek was fairly swollen.

Autumn at Vromans Nose

After visiting Mount Usayantha earlier in the afternoon, I drove down to Vromans Nose to climb it, and take in the views on a wonderfully warm fall afternoon.

The colors along the hills gracing Vromans Nose where somewhat faded and past peak, but they still where quite amazing.

As I looked down along NY 30 and the Octagon House.

Then proceeded down the cliff.

A map of Vromans Nose. I drew these trails up from memory, they should be rough estimates of location of trails and not exactly GPS tracks.

After spending the night at Burnt Rossman I decided to go up Vromans Nose for a short hike, where I could sit out and watch over the Schoharie Valley and take some pictures. I’ve been up Vromans Nose a dozen of times before, but it’s always nice to go up for another visit.

The edge of the mountain.

With thunderstorms coming in the sky was the most interesting of colors.

I spent about an hour up there before coming down.
