Historic Bridge, Hadley, NY


In researching our future Saratoga kayaking book, we ventured up the Hudson River to where the Sacandaga River and the Hudson River converge in Hadley, NY. We took our own modern photos of the historic bridge there. But Fran Williams of Corinth, NY turned us on to this 1880 picture of the same bridge, as it was at that time. Note the train going over the other bridge!
Thanks Fran!

But all of you will have to wait for our modern day photo that will appear in our Saratoga Region canoeing/kayaking book due out in the Fall of 2010.

Hudson River colors


It's still peak foliage time in many areas of Northern, NY. This was taken a couple of days ago along the Hudson River near Corinth between the Saratoga and Lake George regions.

Come and join us!

Hudson River kayaking and foliage


We spent the afternoon on the Hudson River out of the Sherman Island Boat Launch. (It's in our Lake George kayaking book.)
While there we found Ken Burl of Corinth out enjoying the day and his Hornbeck boat. We had heard and read about the Hornbecks but Ken displayed his for us with a beautiful backdrop of fall foliage colors.
Thanks Ken.
