The Battenkill Sunday July 20
SWC/NNYP (Lat Schmidt) jointly with the Schenectady Chapter of the ADK has a trip paddling
the Battenkill in Washington County, NE of the Capital District. This is the trip the late Betty Lou Bailey co-lead for many years. The day trip starts at the County Route 64 bridge about a mile south (upstream) from Shoshan. This delightful clearflowing trout stream amkes a scenic and fun trip especially with sunny summer weather.
Paddlers need enough skills to negotiate this class I stream and be able to back-paddle and land quickly
in case of snags of downed trees.
Plan to meet at 10 am at the bridge about (south) of Shushan, at County Route 64 (next to the RR tracks).
We will stop to eat lunch and swim, so bring eats and bathing suit and towel. Takeout at the
Meadow camp off Skelley Road and we will eat a watermelon.
Contact
Lat Schmidt to sign up or for more information.
