Description
A small brook that gets more exciting as you go down stream. Look out for a drop after town. You'll want to scout it. After the drop is nice Class 3 down to the takeout. The creek will be in the trees at high water, so be careful. Plattsburgh Area Reaches Ausable (Ausable Chasm) Ausable, E. Branch Ausable, W. Branch (4. High Falls Gorge) Ausable, W. Branch (5.
