               What would winter be without some skiing at Catamount, and float down the rapids of Poesten Kill River in a kayak. Take a hike on the Brickhouse Mountain Trail; since you might be in a lake visiting mood you can always have a look at nearby Cleveland Pond. The view of lovely Mashodack Hill near Smith Pond is great, and you'll never forgive yourself if you don’t go skiing at Jiminy Peak if you're here.
This lake is so wonderful. Hiking along the Turner Trail is splendid fun; as expected, this is a delightful region for people who like lakes, Lyons Pond is a lake around here. Smith Pond is splendid enough to spend more than a day at, Dingman's Campgrounds is a splendid local campground, and on a brilliant day you can stop by Pine Swamp, a swamp in the vicinity of Smith Pond.

Kinderhook Creek
13 miles away
There is a lot to run on the Kinderhook above Valatie.  In fact, it can be run all the way from above E. Nassau.  At E. Nassau, a nice boulder garden class II-III proceeds, with water attractions all the way to Valatie.  Getting out at Valatie is difficult but necessary before the dam....There are two impassable waterfalls 60 plus feet high about two miles south of the Valatie water fall. There is no viable way around these falls without climbing down steep cliffs. We stopped about a half mile above the two stuyvesant falls. My understanding is there are old mill dams before you get to stockport. Somebody gave you really bad dangerous info....
