Storm King Mountain

Sailboat by the Aqueduct
Pleasure boater heading north - the Hudson River is a favorite for boating and other activities. In the background, the stone structure is part of the Catskill Aqueduct, a system that supplies water (at the rousing speed of 4 miles per hour!) to the city of New York.
