Description
This run is on the W. Branch of the creek from the town of West Falls to the town of West Seneca. Cazenovia Creek is a low volume stream that you can only run after a heavy rain, it'll hold water for about 12 hrs. At the 6.5 ft mark it is Class II-III though at higher water this changes. This only happens a few times a year. The put-in is just below the dam in West Falls. There are several take out points, the best is probably Mill Rd. in West Seneca.
You can also start further upstream in the town of Glenwood for a more challening run.
It seems that only the same few people ever run this creek.
