Plum Point Path

Plum Point , Newburgh, NY

 

I am doing a series on paths along the Hudson. The trees are old and historic. This area was very active during the Revolutionary War. Washington was in Newburgh for 18 months at the end of the war. West Point was about 15 miles south of Newburgh, and there was a lot of communications and messages between Washington and West Point. This might have been one of the paths used by messengers. To me, this path feels magical. I am trying to convey the sense and feeling of the area.
