The bluff in Freestone Point overlooks the Potomac River in Leesylvania State Park. It was used by the Confederacy to blockade Washington D.C. during the Civil War. The top of the bluff is on Lee's Woods Trail. Freestone Point is named for the free limestone the colonist would get here. The trail is probably named after Judge Lee or Senator Harry (Light Horse) Lee who resided there. This shot was taken from the Freestone Point Pier. #LeesylvaniaStatePark #Virginia #PotomacRiver #FreestonePoint

this structure formerly housed the ‘jet-slinger’, a vast arm that flung more than 500,000 tonnes of native forest wood chips into vast piles before they were bulldozed into hoppers for shipping

 

in these more enlightened times it is now a giant sundial and performance space

More often than not, when I go to Leesylvania State Park I go early enough to catch the sunrise. The view from Freestone Point is one of my favorite sunrise locations in the greater DC area. This shot was about 15 minutes before the sun appeared over the horizon.

 

The Potomac River is about 3 miles (5km) across at this location. The pier shown here is where I photograph the nearby Osprey nest and where I was while taking the other two shots in this series.
