Wondering what the best place in Southern Dutchess would be to catch a sunrise, my friends suggested Shenandoah Mountain. The Appalachian Trail crosses Shenandoah just north of Fahnestock State Park.
A few backroads just off the Taconic State Parkway lead to the trailhead. Long Hill Road must be one of hundreds of dirt roads that cross the A.T. A nice little 5 minute walk leads to an outstanding view point. If it were not for the power lines and the sound of cars on the Taconic, you'd hardly know you were so close to civilization.
Nice sunrise pic. Your blog is looking good. Clean. Nice Layout.
