Railroad Rock Cut
The Amtrak Railroad runs right next to the river here, however there is almost no development right on the river, due to the steep slopes.

Taken on Saturday June 4, 2011 at Hudson River Islands State Park.Also there is a popular state kayak put in and boat launch. Many people kayak around Middle Stockport Island from this point rather then come in from Coxscakie to avoid crossing the main channel of the river, that can be awful choppy and full of motorboat traffic.
Taken on Saturday June 4, 2011 at Hudson River Islands State Park.The mud shows how high the tide came in the early morning. The tide was particularly high due to the strong sothernly breeze. It's a good thing that I put the tent and kayak up pretty high. Also notice the bear bag I set up last night -- not for bears per se, but any other animal looking for some snacks during the night.
