Description

See Dennis Squires' _New York Exposed_ book for the description. According to the book, this creek is as yet Unrun. Anyone up for a First Descent??? Likely to stay unrun. Squires says it's way too woody--twice. But if you do grab a First D, please add a comment (and a few gnarlistic photos) here to immortalize your story.
