About This Access Site
This Class IV put-in on the East Branch of the Saco River in Bartlett is designed for experienced whitewater paddlers seeking challenging rapids and technical sections. The East Branch is known for its continuous, pushy whitewater with significant gradient, making it suitable only for paddlers with strong boat control and rescue skills. Water levels and conditions can vary significantly with seasonal snowmelt and rainfall, so checking current conditions before arriving is essential for safety.
