Hoosick River

There is a marked, paved parking lot just beside the dirt road going down to the water.  You can park here and walk 1 min to the stream, or park on the dirt road itself, but it is muddy. The current here moves visibily fast. We did see tents set up along the shore, and people were fishing, but no one was swimming.  The bank is long and a mix of rock and sand. Swimmingholes.org warn not to swim here after heavy rain or thunderstorms.  The river is narrow but looks fairly deep. A little south of here, not even a half mile, we saw people swimming under the bridge as well.
