About This Access Site
This is a hike-in access point to the East Branch of the Sacandaga River located in the Town of Johnsburg in Warren County, New York. As a hike-in access site, paddlers should expect to carry their boats from a trailhead to the water rather than launching from a developed ramp. The East Branch of the Sacandaga is a whitewater river, so this access point is primarily suited for kayakers and canoeists with experience handling moving water and rapids.
Paddlers using this access should be prepared for a backcountry experience with limited amenities. The hike-in nature of this access means there are no developed parking facilities, restrooms, or docks at the water's edge. Because this is a remote access point, paddlers should plan accordingly with proper preparation and ensure they have the appropriate skill level for whitewater paddling on the Sacandaga's East Branch.
