This access point serves as an entry or takeout location for paddlers running sections of the Pequannock River, a popular destination for whitewater kayaking and canoeing in north-central New Jersey.
The dam location means water levels and flow rates can be affected by dam operations, which paddlers should be aware of before launching. Access at dam sites typically requires awareness of safety protocols and dam-related hazards. Given the whitewater designation, this site is best suited for paddlers with intermediate to advanced skill levels who are comfortable navigating moving water and potentially technical conditions.
Paddlers using this access point should verify current conditions, water level information, and any restrictions that may apply due to dam operations. The Pequannock River offers scenic paddling through Morris County with varied difficulty depending on water flow and seasonal conditions.
