River Description

If the last drop looks good then you have enough water for the run. Hike up the trail on the left side of the creek for 1.75 miles then head to the river. If it is flat then you've gone far enough. If the creek is really high an extra half mile walk will bring you to the hardest drop on the run.

The entire run is solid Class 4 creeking from the putin on down. Expect slides aand boofs throughout. Enjoy, but keep an eye out for strainers.

According to Adrian Vanden Bout, this run requires an hour-long, two-mile hike in from the road--but it's worth it. It often collects wood; scout from the trail.

sorry Matt, but i've gotta add here. its not 2 miles but 1.50 - 1.75. the other creek we ran that day may have been 2 miles (E. Branch Sacandaga, the Square Falls section).
