More info on the hike and the mountain:
This peak on the east side of the Hudson River sits atop a tunnel that
was drilled out for Route 9D and Metro-North Railroad tracks.
This mountain goes right to the river's edge, giving you the feeling of
looking directly down on the river. It is on the opposite side of the
river from another significant valley peak -- Storm King Mountain.
The Views: Spectacular. Rocky crags with no trees allow for unfettered
vistas up and down the valley. Hawks fly at eye level.
Storm King Mountain is directly across the river. West Point to the
south and Newburgh Bridge to the north.
The Hike: Taking the "white" trail from 9D, the trail goes straight up
as you climb over rocks. You'll need all four appendages to grasp and
pull yourself up the mountain. It takes about an hour to reach the
first of several lookout plateaus. The hike down is tricky, given the
vertical drop of this trail.
History: Granite blasted from the sides of this mountain has been used
to build the Brooklyn Bridge, West Point and the front steps of the
capitol building in Albany. The scars to the mountain are clearly visible.
