This moderate-speed interchange was built to address run-away trucks roaring down NY 162, unable to stop before hitting NY 5S, and recognizing that the prominent direction of flow of traffic is towards Fort Plain and Canajoharie from NY 162. Vehicles heading west on NY 5S from NY 162 can simply merge over to the outer lane to continue without stopping.
As natural processes go, humans are one of the most notable on how they have re-shaped the surface of the earth. Graded surfaces, such as roadways and carriageways are clearly visible on this LiDAR Hillshade along South Mountain and the Palenville Clove of the Catskills. Old carriageways, long abandoned or converted into hiking trails might not be visible on normal aerial photography, but still show up on this hillshade of the landscape. Zoom in and take a careful look at this image.

I think I’ll be able to walk from downtown Ghetto Chopper to the plaza to avoid the crazies on the Plaza and get some steps. I didn’t think I’d be able to catch the earlier yokel bus downtown but somehow I did.
Maybe if it didn’t look like the rain 🌧️ would pick up later, I could have ridden in but the bus even with the traffic beats taking the SuperDuty to work. Still waiting to hear about the truck cap. But looking forward to getting out of town.
Last night I went out to Five Rivers 🐸 after dinner and packing my air pump. The rear tire seems lumpy and out of true but the spokes seem tight but maybe I need to adjust that. 🛠️ The chain 🔗 seems good no slipping though some of the shifts could be better but I think I have the derailuer mostly back in alignment. It’s not some fine french bikes that the lesbians ride but it gets me from Point A to Point B most of the time.
