lots of nice snow at last, in Riverside Park above 145th St -- but not so easy to skate in this deep stuff George Washington Bridge behind a bush and a snowman
|
|||
|
|
||||
| little red lighthouse under the great gray bridge |
 |
|||
|
|
||||
 |
temple along the Greenway path, overlooking the Hudson river (and beside the Rt 9A highway)
|
|||
|
|
||||
| Dyckman Street -- with unusual skating conditions undernearth the highway near Tubby Hook and the south entrance of Inwood Hill Park
|
 |
|||
|
|
||||
 |
fjord looking north up the Hudson River, with a boat in its middle and the Palisades for its west bank from the most "upper" west side of Manhattan island in Inwood Hill
Park |
|||
|
|
||||
| pretty skiing in the woods of Inwood Hill Park |
 |
|||
|
|
||||
 |
skiing up to the toll booths of the Henry Hudson Bridge but the sidewalk going north across the Harlem River was locked here ("during inclement weather")
|
|||
|
|
||||
| Instead I went back down and skied the trail underneath the Henry Hudson Bridge
curving east through Inwood Hill Park, toward the cove hidden in the north end of Manhattan island
|
 |
|||
|
|
||||
 |
skiing above the Harlem River for a moment -- looking east to the
Broadway Bridge, where my tour today will finish
|
|||
|
|
||||
| Baker Field -- finish skiing at the home of the record-breaking football team of Columbia
University
I skied for another block east from Inwood Park, along 218th Street, then took my skis off and carried them the rest of the way. I walked on the Broadway Bridge sidewalk across the Harlem River to the 225th St subway station in the Bronx. |
