I participated in a Scenic Hudson kayak trip last night to the Esopus Meadows lighthouse and other areas along the Hudson shoreline. It was lead by pro kayaker Ray Fusco, who provided equipment and training to those new to kayaking. I had a great time, met lots of new people, and of course brought along my camera for the ride.
With calm water and low wind, it was a perfect evening to drift along the river, taking in the sights of eagles, the shoreline forest, and the sun as it set behind the Catskill mountains…summer at its best.

Thought I’d share a few random images from my local travels the last few weeks…including some taken from my kayak. Enjoy…

Nice article today in the NY Times called “Hudson Valley Views” about several scenic hikes in the Hudson Valley, many of which I have hiked and photographed over the years. Included are Mt Beacon and Burger Hill Park, both of which are Scenic Hudson properties. They even mentioned my favorite breakfast/lunch stop in town, Homespun Foods!
These are all great family destinations, and I recommend them to anyone looking for classic Hudson Valley landscapes.
