Two Saturdays ago I decided to go up for a hike at Taconic State Park. I had visited Sunset Rock last June, and decided it would be interesting to go back up there six months later in the dead of winter.

The trail up to Sunset Point is not very steep except for a few short sections. This is one of the steeper sections.

As you head up the mountain there are some places with broken views to the south, overlook Copake Falls and further south.

Here is the shadow of me hiking up the mountain.

Finally reaching the top of Sunset Rock.

Here is the view off Sunset Rock. The Catskill Mountains are in the distance, somewhat shrowed in haze on this beautiful warm January day.

Looking off to the North from Sunset Point.

Here is a map of where I hiked.
