I had the opportunity last weekend to do some hiking with friends , on Breakneck Ridge in Hudson Highlands State Park, NY. As usual, for me, as a location scout, it was a busman’s holiday, of sorts

Has Storm King been used in any movies? It seems like there could be some great running shots to be had along that drive!
