There are a few other sections in this river system that can be paddled as well. The sections for whitewater rafting and kayaking here in New York are often more challenging than
    in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that many of the rivers here are not very forgiving. This is a pretty short section so it's not like you're gonna spend hours on the river in one stretch. If you'll be staying in a hotel you're in luck, lodging is
available very near the river, but you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. The campgrounds here at Salmon River are pretty good. Great exercise and a chance to spend some time outdoors will have you coming back for more.
