The winds blow strongest in July and August, Krstovich said.
“Our brave Capital Region firefighters spend each and every day working tirelessly to keep our communities safe,” Tonko said in a statement. “It is critical that we provide these courageous men and women with the training, equipment and manpower they need to continue to serve local families safely and efficiently. I’m proud to deliver this essential funding for equipment upgrades and operational support, and I’ll always continue to fight to make certain our first responders have the resources they need to do their critical work.”
ments in Troy, Schenectady and Saratoga Springs. The congressman and his staff help members of local departments write applications for the money.
The best bet is to launch in the mornings and evenings to avoid the winds, Krstovich said. Boaters can also check tidal charts before they launch so they can paddle with the current.Nature abounds on and around the islands. Paddlers can see ospreys, great blue heron, double-breasted cormorant, great egret, red-tailed hawk, green heron, rough-winged swallow and various ducks and gulls on their journey, as well as catch sight of bald eagles, which have become a common sight in the area over the last few years.

The main factors are the current and the wind, Krstovich said. The Hudson Estuary — the part of the river south of the Federal Dam in Troy — is tidal, and therefore flows north as the tide is rising and south as the tide is falling. The indigenous Lenape tribe called the river “Mahicantuck,” loosely translated as “the river that flows two ways.”

Supervisor Joe Bott has announced the North Greenbush Community Day which will be held on Saturday, October 8th from 11am to 3pm at Town Hall.You are all invited to meet and talk with dedicated members of the Wynantskill and Defreestville Fire Departments, Ladies Auxiliary, North Greenbush Ambulance, North Greenbush Police Department, Rensselaer County Sheriff’s Department, Rensselaer County Stop DWI, Rensselaer County Search and Rescue Dogs, New York State Dive Team, New York State Police Helicopter, SORT and many more.
COXSACKIE — Seven uninhabited islands sit in the Hudson River between Columbia and Greene counties, only a few hundred feet of water separating them from the villages that dot the riverside.
Though only the Coxsackie launch has been completed, it opens a door to accessing the river islands and experiencing their splendor.Getting to the islands varies widely in difficulty depending on what day — and what time — a boater decides to launch, according to Michael Krstovich, the owner of Screaming Eagle Outdoor Adventures in Athens.
For all their beauty, the islands are not natural.Beginning in the late 19th century, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers began altering the river to create and maintain a shipping channel.First, timber and rock dikes were built along or between the existing islands, according Dan Miller, state Department of Environmental Conservation habitat restoration coordinator. The dikes were meant to “stabilize (the islands) and focus river flow through the main channel to increase scour in the main channel, making it deeper.”

Then there’s the wind. The unobstructed nature of the river allows winds to blow at speeds far greater than on land. As well as being difficult to paddle against, the winds can kick up small, choppy waves.
Hudson Middle Ground Flats, a mile-plus stretch of forested island between Athens and the city of Hudson, was once a shoal but was elevated into an island by dredging spoils. It is one of seven uninhabited patches of land in the Hudson River between Columbia and Greene counties.

The Rensselaer County Legislature continues to take steps to protect the residents of Rensselaer County, especially our children. This month the Legislature approved legislation providing school resource officers in the Brittonkill School District and the Berlin School District. A Sheriff’s Deputy has been assigned to each district and is already providing students with a safer learning environment and positive interactions with law enforcement.The safety of all of our county residents is always a priority, and it is why the Legislature Majority continues to adopt resolutions that urge Governor Hochul and those state officials who support pro-criminal legislation to repeal those parts of bail reforms that allow dangerous criminals to be released, hours after committing heinous crimes. These laws, supported by Democrats, have tied the hands of judges, and have demoralized the efforts of police by creating a revolving door for criminals.

Some of the islands were connected to the mainland
When the river was dredged, the resulting material was deposited behind the dikes and between the islands to further concentrate the navigation channel, according to AsMiller.aresult, many of the smaller islands were connected together into the islands we see today.
But the two islands closest to the new state park’s boat launch in Coxsackie are Coxsackie Island and Rattlesnake Island. The former is about a mile north of the boat launch (less than a 20-minute paddle when going with the current), with the latter about a mile past that.
Today, kayakers and other boaters can land on the sandy beaches of Hudson Middle Ground Flats and Stockport Middle Ground and spend the day exploring the forest within. Others have come before. Though officially state land, denizens of Hudson and Athens have built shacks on Hudson Middle Ground Flats, and several structures stand on the island.

Hudson Middle Ground Flats, a mile-plus stretch of forested island between Athens and the city of Hudson, was once a shoal, Lipscomb said, but was elevated into an island by the dredging spoils. Stockport Middle Ground, about five miles north near the delta of Stockport Creek, is also an elevated shoal. Schodack Island, now an eight-mile peninsula running north-south under the Castleton-on-Hudson bridge, was once a series of smaller islands, according to Lipscomb.

Prior to the 19th century, the upper third of the estuary was shallow and consisted of a series of braided channels and a multitude of small islands, the result of deposited sediments from the upper Hudson and Mohawk rivers as they tumbled towards the Hudson Valley, where the consistent elevation made the water slow to a crawl, Lipscomb said.

Paddling from Athens to the island avoids the shipping channel, which runs along the river’s eastern side, and affords calmer waters.Farther south, under the span of the Rip Van Winkle Bridge, lies Roger’s Island, consisting mostly of tidal marshes and tidal forested wetlands, as well as mudflats, according to the DEC. Most of the island is so low in the water it cannot be walked upon — but it can be kayaked over. A channel meandering through the center of the island can be accessed from the island’s south.
