River Description

The Still River Gorge feeds into the Sandy just below the Sandy takeout. From the Rt. 8 bridge over the Sandy, follow the road that extends from the downstream side of the bridge. Take this road to the first right, about a mile away. This right takes you over the Sandy on a bridge. This is the Still takeout.

Cross this bridge and follow the road to the first left, a 1/4 mile away. This left takes you to

the bridge over the Still River Gorge. Put-in just upstream.

This is a cool section to do after or before doing the Sandy. It's harder than the Sandy though. But it's an easy scout.

Agreed. Class 4. Maybe 4+ if it was absolutely raging.

Sandy Brook running at 1 or so, but this was taken after the tropical storm flooding.
