World’s End

World’s End is not some lamentation about the single digit temperatures we’ve seen in these parts;  it’s one of the great place names in the Hudson Highlands from 40 to 55 miles north of the the Statue.  Enjoy these summer/winter pics of this curve in the vicinity of World’s End.  West Point is just to the left, and we’re headed north.

Birk Thomas–of tugboat information.com– took this photo in just about the same place less than a week ago.

I took this two summers ago, and that’s Pollepel Island in the distance.

Same place . . . Birk’s photo from last week.  Visibility is so restricted that the Island cannot be seen.

And here are two more shots of the same view in summer, from off Cornell and

Patty Nolan. That’s Buchanan 12 heading north in the photo below.

Photos 2 and 4 used with thanks to Birk Thomas.  All others by Will Van Dorp.
