Delaware R headwaters

I have been to Cape May, NJ many times where the Delaware Bay opens to the Atlantic, but I had never been all the way to the top of our Delaware River watershed. This summer I was in Oneonta NY to visit Hartwick College and I took the opportunity to find a small tributary stream in the headwaters. This is what it looked like.


Ausable River and Chasm

Located in Keeseville, NY, the Ausable Chasm has been a tourist attraction for the last 200 years. At the bottom of the chasm, this 94 mile long river runs through the gap and into Lake Placid. I visited the attraction in August and was able to hike alongside the chasm and see how the river has affected the landscape over time.
