The Boston Kayaker's wife at the lookout to the Connecticut River at Canal Street in South Hadley MA.
Pictures taken October 2017.
Note that the access to the water is farther up on Canal Street from this lookout.


At the end of Canal Street in South Hadley MA is a small parking spot.


Need to take a short hike downhill.





I can not find a good spot to land around here . . . !
Nice view of Mount Tom though.
