New York has mountains?? :p Maybe I'll just hike there someday.
 
Catskills:
Wittenberg
Kaaterskill High Peak
Westkill
Tremper

Adirondacks:
Dix
Algonquin
Big Slide
Giant

Just to list a few.
 
Grace
Pyramid
Treadway
Black Bear
Crane
Jay Range
the ridge from Dial to Nippletop (OK, not a summit but I like it)

And what is it about Couchie that when you're trudging back up the ridge you're grumbling, but I'd do it again tomorrow in a heartbeat (if the snow were gone!).

Gotta stop because more keep popping into my head
 
Catskills - Friday and Balsam Cap. I love the bushwacking and rock scrambling. If anyone wants to hike here soon let me know.

ADK's - I've had so many hikes with no views but the ones that I remember (not necessarily 4000 ft'rs) - Ampersand, Catamount, Algonquin and the traverse to Iroquois, Skylight. For non peaks - Indian Head, Fish Hawk Cliffs and Beaver Meadow Falls. I also like the view of Whiteface from Copperas Pond. The traverse to Rockey Peak Ridge from New Russia is spectacular at the height of folaige season. Bald Peak (Rondaxe) down by Old Forge
