Mostly cloudy sitting down under the Southern Boulevard Bridge in Albany. 45 degrees. The Southern Boulevard bridge certainly is not the most beautiful bridge, but the waterfall under it is quite nice. Probably when they replaced it in the 1980s or 1990s, they weren’t concerned about the scenic beauty of the gorge. In contrast, the older Thruway bridge over the gorge is a fairly nice looking arch bridge, although kind of a typical early 1950s gorge bridge. You get down in the south end and there is the recycling plant with trash blowing all around, and the run down houses of the south end. The trail is pretty nice but at the time somewhat boring. But certainly be gorge is the most interesting part of the trail.
