New York, Adirondacks,
NY
This trip is to introduce you to canoe camping or a test run for some of the longer trips I have planed latter in the season. There are only 2 portages around a couple dams I plan on taking time to fish NY fishing license will be required The plan to arrive at the put in Wednesday around 11 am and paddle down the river to the lake then make camp. Thursday we will explore the lake depending on how far we paddles we will either paddle to a new campsite that night on stay at the site. You should be fit enough to paddle 4-6 hours a day. The camping is free and there are around 30 campsites. I plan on being off the water by noon on Friday or Saturday at the latest. You will need to carry everything you need to camp for gear and food. II am doing midweek trip because it can get very crowded and finding a campsite could be difficult on the weekend. The area was closed all 2024 so it could have a lot traffic this year we want to be close enough Friday to paddle out probably. Stay at same site on Friday night .Kevlar canoes can be rented at various outfitters in Saranac NY. Because of the short portages and flat water this trip is suitable for kayaks as long as there is room for your gear. Royalex boats can be rented from the NH AMC Contact [email protected] to rent a canoe from us.
