Description
This creek starts slow, but right after the first bridge there are a series of ledges and a 30 footer. Scout and portage on the right. Boogy water takes you into Cairo where there is another big drop. Continue to the Catskill where there are more ledges before the bridge which is the takeout. See the tabs above for flowinfo and directions. More info in _New York Exposed: The Whitewater State, Vol. 2_.
