Hudson River Panoramic
This is the Hudson River at it's widest point less than a half hour's drive away from the NYC city line in the North Bronx. I was here for the day with my gym closed down for months now and bored to tears of walking down the same old streets in the neighborhood did a lengthy 2 hour exercise walk which may not sound that much to a younger person but at my age is a good bit of exercise. Over here the river is over two miles wide and the current is very mild compared to around a hundred miles upstate where during the spring whitewater rafters can encounter class V rapids after heavy rains which I did about thirty years ago and saw another raft that was with us get flipped over with all those thrown into the freezing river which still had large hunks of ice in it. Luckily no one was hurt but it was the first and last time I'd ever go rafting in cold weather. To the left is the Tappen Zee Bridge AKA Governor Mario Coumo Bridge were I-87 runs over that will take to eventually take you to the State Capital in Albany and then to Montreal.
