Log in to add a reportThere is a shorter 2.5mi. Class I-II fun run from Route 93 to the new bridge (under construction as of 3/20/13) where the Nescopeck crosses under Mill Hill Rd (at the end of Pecora Rd) which gets all the play shown in the site photos and without strainer per photo (@1.75' on the Wapwallopen gauge). Parking and access are easy near the construction site. River run map is here: http://www.gmap-pedometer.com/?r=5891368
LAND-OWNER ADVISEMENT: as we prepared to put in on the river-left bank of the Nesco on the upstream side of the bridge over Rt.93, where the obvious pull-off is, a gentleman claimed it was his property and advised us to put in at another place. The site is NOT posted. Instead we accessed on the right-bank downstream of the bridge, nearer the N.Main St. bridge.
Easy to spot, easy to avoid. Must portage, easier on river left. At higher water (like last week), it could be a problem if not aware of the trees.
This is just above a fantastic play hole.
