River DescriptionThis section of the White River is mostly quick water interspersed with ledge drops. The lower portion below Sharon is more difficult with several interesting ledge drops. 1 mile below the bridge at Sharon there is an old broken dam that is best run on the right. Look for the old dam ubutments on either side of the river. A horizon line will become noticable just above the drop. Pull out on the left if you should decide to portage. 3 miles below Sharon is the next large rapid. Quartermile rapid is a series of small drops through a checkered maze of broken ledge. In low water only one or two routes are passable and require skill to manuever through. The last big rapid on this section is at the West Hartford bridge. This is usually the takeout since the river below slackens into White River Junction.DirectionsPut in from Concord NHTake I-89 N exit towards LEBANON/WHITE RIVER JCT.
