Thanks, never heard of that one.

Looks like that's also called Furmans Rd -- over in Sullivan county
northwest from the Rondout Reservoir, a left turn off Sugarloaf Rd,
then left on Moore Hill Rd and right on Denman Mt Rd. And I thought
just Sugarloaf was a tough-enough climb.
How kind of you to include it in your Catskills-Hill-Tour route.
Actually just doing those four climbs in the southern section of that
route looks like a pretty challenging 47 miles with around 5600-6000
vertical feet of climbing. Hope I get out there soon to try some of
those.
Favorite? Looking back over the last couple of years, the climb I've
actually done the most is Bear Mountain. Not real steep, but with
some pretty views.
Biggest on asphalt? The current candidate which Tom B just told me
about is Ellenville up to Sams Point in southern Ulster county, about
1750 vertical feet. (? or can you climb on asphalt a little higher
there ?)
