Schenectady, Amsterdam, Fonda/Fultonville, Canajoharie, St Johnsville and Little Falls

Inside Schenectady

The City of Amsterdam lies alongside the Mohawk River

Home of the Fonda Raceway! And several really nice truck stops.

Old Fort Johnson in the Mohawk Valley

The Schoharie Creek (misleading name here) empties into the Mohawk River upstream of the Erie Canal Lock 12.

There's a lot of history here that directly affects the Mohawk Valley.

Johnstown and Gloversville may actually be a little further north than the Mohawk Valley, but they certainly have the smell and feel of any Mohawk Valley town or city.

And we roll with the waves too! Home of Wintergreen State Park in Canajoharie.
St. Johnsville is over the river and a few more miles west, but its close enough that we wanted to include it here.

We're a great little city. Securing the other end of the Mohawk Valley.

Crescent and Half Moon are between the Twin Bridges of the Northway (87) and the Route 9 Bridge. The beginning of the "Flight", is east of the Route 9 Bridge.

Route 87 in New York State is called the Northway (even going south) from Albany to the Canadian line, and is part of the Thruway from Albany south.

Included here are blogs and forums that normally deal with the Capital District of New York State.
