Hook Mountain

I'd forgotten how turbid and brown the Hudson River is most of the time. It's normal for the Hudson and part of it's character. Early spring colors on the river are brown and blue. Soon we'll be soaked in green. On Saturday we paddled from a park in Nyak along the west bank up to a spot across from Croton Point and back. The air was warm, but the water's only 40F. The wind picked up as the sun set and it got a little choppy. We fought it for the last mile or so. Good use of a March afternoon.
