  The put-in location is a reasonable drive from Ogdensburg-Massena, as you can see on the road map further down. The rivers for whitewater rafting and kayaking in this state are often tougher than in other states, so keep in mind that a lot of the rivers here are not suitable for beginners. The Jayville Road to Pitcairn stretch of Jenny Creek in St. Lawrence County is 5 miles long and has been determined by American Whitewater to be a class IV-V+ section. If you're a camper you can camp at one of the great campgrounds nearby. 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 bit of exercise and just being out on the river for a while are great reasons to come. Since you're on this site you are probably into whitewater
rafting or kayaking, either way this area has a large number of paddling places. This stretch is mid length, it's perfect for a one day trip. The scenic beauty of New York and the beautiful way the water current moves down the stream will make you feel great.
