Thought we’d take advantage of the beautiful weather on the first full day of autumn on Sunday. We put in at River Barge Park in Carlstadt (free boat ramp) and paddled up the Hackensack River a short ways  to Mill Creek Marsh.

Shot above is a fellow paddler entering the Hackensack River at Mill Creek Point — with the sports complex and MetLife Stadium in the background and a couple of Double-crested Cormorants on the pilings. Just a reminder that autumn is still a great time to kayak in the Meadowlands.
