New York whitewater - Dry Brook, Catskill Mountains, Ulster/ Delaware County

Ulster/ Delaware county, Haynes Hollow Creek to East Branch D section whitewater kayaking, rafting, and paddling information.

 

CLASS II-IV     5.5 miles
  The wonderful Ulster/ Delaware County scenery and the cool fresh water beats anything. The average New York whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be harder to run than those in other states, so you'd better keep in mind that the rivers in this state are less manageable. There's camping available near Dry Brook. There are no other stretches to paddle along Dry Brook than the Haynes Hollow Creek to East Branch D stretch. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater rafting or kayaking, either way there are lots of good rivers for that
    around here. The river winds through the Catskill Mountains and you get great scenery. This section is long enough to enjoy a good non stop paddle, you can easily run it on an afternoon. The Haynes Hollow Creek to East Branch D section of Dry Brook in New York is 5.5 miles long
and is a class II-IV section of whitewater according to American Whitewater. You might have to settle for a hotel a bit away from the river if you want to stay the night, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. A good workout and a chance to spend some time outdoors are great attractions for lots of people.

Briefly about the general area:
If you're here, you might as well explore Negro Hollow; you can hit the slopes at Belleayre in the neighborhood. The high level of rainfall makes Dry Brook a rather wet site;
 
of all the months in a year May is the one with the most rain, and the driest month is February.
But wait, there's more enjoyable things to do in the Catskill Mountains. For the duration of the warmest time of the year at Dry Brook temperatures are commonly in the 70's. During the dark hours of summer temperatures fall down into the 50's. High temperatures through the wintertime are normally in the 30's, and after the sun is down during the winter temperatures at Dry Brook fall into the 10's.
