View Croton River Sept 25th in a larger map
I finally found a boat ramp at Croton on Hudson , and put in about 10:20. The cloud was dispersing and the wind was light. The tide was about an hour past high tide, and the river had a good bit of flow, but the paddling was still pretty easy as I headed upriver. The fall colors have just begun, and it was a bit of a shock to realize that . I guess somewhere deep inside I was hoping that summer would never end.
I didn't get far upriver as there were strong rapids, but it was a good paddle.
