Appalachian Waters, W. Burmeiste
One can also continue down a flatter stretch to Burnt Mills Rd.
Stephen Strange contributed:
A little class I-II creek at its beginnings up near Mendham. It's a pretty beginner run. Put in where Roxiticus Rd. crosses the river. (Roxiticus Rd intersects Rt. 24, west of Mendham) To avoid the even flatter second half, take out below Ravine Lake or just North of Far Hills.
It is small, so watch out for strainers.

Log in to add a reporti think the usgs water gauge might be a lil off...the level was 3.0' on the site and that seemed like the bare minimum to paddle.
