Storm King Mountain State Park, Hudson River Valley, NY

Today we drove to the Hudson River Valley in New York and hiked in Storm King Mountain State Park. It was a beautiful first day of Autumn, the air was just a little a bit crisp and the skies were clear. The hike had a lot of changes in elevation with many spectacular overlooks and views of the Hudson River below. We saw three deer, including one six point buck, and several sharp-shinned hawks and one osprey. The forests were filled with tall oak trees which were dropping acorns from high above!
