| The Appalachian Trail crosses the Hudson River on the Bear Mountain Bridge. On the west shore, the A-T passes over CSX's River Line Sub, shown here. On the east shore, the A-T passes over the former NYC main line heading up the river to Albany. The Bear Mt. Bridge is also the lowest point of elevation along the entire 2100-mile Appalachian Trail. View is from the top of Anthony's Nose, a mountain on the east shore of the Hudson River that's accessed by the A-T. |
