CLASS III-IV     2 miles
  The nature scenery of Lewis County and the cool fresh water make the trip here worthwhile. This stretch of Beaver River is 2 miles long and it is classified as a class III-IV section by American Whitewater. This section is quite short so no need to bring snacks. You might be into whitewater rafting or kayaking or both, doesn't matter, in this general area you'll find lots of paddling spots. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. This is one of a small number of paddling stretches in this river system, there are a few
    others too. The average New York whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master than those in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. A good workout and just being out on the river
for a while will make you glad you came. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car.
