Backpacking the East River


Two guys backpacking in the cold from Redhook, Brooklyn to Greenpoint, Brooklyn. Using only a map of toxic sites to navigate their way, they follow the East River shoreline, and the Statue of Liberty…

Deadpan funny, and informative to boot.

East River Trash

East River Trash

The recent rains washed much trash down the storm drains and raised the level of the East River depositing a tremendous amount of trash on the rocks of the Empire Fulton Ferry Park . The park rangers were crawling around the rocks and pulling it out of the rocks by hand. Ranger “Le Cat” (above left) referred to this as his art work.
