La Chute

La Chute River (shown on some maps as 'Ticonderoga Creek') drains the northern end of Lake George into Lake Champlain in the historic town of Ticonderoga. This is not a well-known stream, and it doesn't appear that paddlers run it with any regularity. Its character appears to be mostly quiet Class I or II, punctuated by a big drop: Carillon Falls, a 30-foot or bigger cascading waterfall which is the centerpiece of a park in the center of town, looks too bony to be runnable at normal water levels.

Note*  This is a highly visible drop. Best bet is to scout in plain clothes, put in at the bridge upstream and then take out at the park road near the pool. Be quick or you can plan on someone calling the fuzz.
