Yes, it drops a dam up and down. It is a pretty cool piece of engineering! Known as 5 mile dam.

Nice shot and the B&W just adds to the serenity of the picture.

Always beautiful on the bridge crossing the Croton Dam spillway.

Always scary when it’s this dry.

Rain, rain, don’t go away.

Are you able to cross it like a bridge? Some of those pics looks like your on it w/your bike? Or is that a different location? Pretty cool.

There is a stairway for maintenance, but I do not think you can cross it. On the opposite side is the Erie canalway trail. I crossed over the metal bridge from the other picture to ride the side with the lock dam. It is more fun to ride over on the 5 mile side and brings me out to one of the farms I worked at when I was a teenager.

Very nice. That 2nd pic almost makes it look like it uses traditional tubing.

Not sure what kind this is, but check out the size relative to my 29” wheels!

I worry this picture will be used by the anti-mask movement as "proof" that masks don't work. (south of Copake, NY)

Holy smokes that's a big one for sure. Looks like some sort of shelf fungus but it does not appear to be growing on a log?

Rode out of Copake, NY with my son today. 24 mile loop and a stop before heading home to refill my growler and pick up a 4 pack from a local brewery (and of course a stop for ice cream on the way home. If you're ever in Amenia - try Fudgy's!

. . . yesterday to celebrate the birthday of one of our lady friends. I've never ridden over that way and it was some pretty country with not as much climbing as I expected. We stopped by Jacob's Pillow Dance Camp, closed because of Covid, so we supplied our own modern dance moves. But beware those potholes hidden away in the sun-dappled shade spots! I'm sporting a pretty good sized bandage this morning. After the ride it was time for some reward food and drink.
