The Frozen River #SkywatchFriday

What a difference six weeks makes!

 

I had forgotten to post pictures from a walk along the Chenango River in the Southern Tier of New York spouse and I took on February 11.  Come walk with us...

This path brings us under several highway overpasses. 
The Chenango freezes over easily since the water is so shallow.  At its deepest (not here) it's only about six and a half feet (just about two meters) deep.
I like how the scenery changes as we walk.
This looks like one needs to duck, but there is no danger of hitting your head - it's higher than it looks.
 
One more overpass photo, and some open water.


The path ends (one day it will be lengthened, I believe) and time to turn back.  It's also time to return to spring.  Let's bid the frozen river farewell.

Joining, as I do each Friday, Yogi and other skywatchers for #SkywatchFriday.  Is it really Friday already?

  5. Thank you for taking us along for your walk. I love urban trails going underneath freeways and streets. Hopefully they will extend the trail some more.

  6. I agree, time to return to spring. We had winter, then were teased with spring, now we're back to winter.

  10. I love a nice natural path along a shallow river...my original reason not to like Donald Trump was that he yuppified/ruined the one in Alexandria. Thanks for sharing yours!

  11. Six feet deep? Not even as deep as a swimming pool.
