The Hudson River Culvert is now completely unobstructed

Hello ladies & Gentlemen and as always, thank you for watching!
In today's video I return to the Hudson River culvert with a chainsaw to remove the logs blocking the entrance. I hope you all enjoy this video.

    I want to add a note of explanation here because I live near the river. He mentioned tides. The lower half of the Hudson River is actually an estuary of the Atlantic Ocean, so it has 2 tides per day. The river flows mostly in eastern New York State, dividing New York and New Jersey and flowing into the ocean.
