New York whitewater - Doig Creek, Adirondack Mountains, Hamilton County Hamilton county, Pumpkin Hollow Road to Sacandaga River section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.   CLASS III+(IV)     3 miles   The wonderful New York scenery and the cool fresh water attract people from near and far. The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that a large number of rivers in this state are not easy. This is a short paddling stretch so you'd better be prepared to walk your kayak back to put-in a few times. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but do book a room before you come because it is a     very popular destination. The put-in location is a reasonable drive from Gloversville, there's a road map further down the page with more info on that.
