because it is a very popular destination. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in New York tend to be more challenging than the national average, so better not forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. This
is not the only paddling stretch in this river system, there are others too. The campgrounds here at St. Regis River - West Branch are pretty good.
Briefly about the general area: The cheerful folks of Parishville
like to hang out close by; Higley Flow State Park is a fine place. Summer brings highs in the 80's to St. Regis River - West Branch. Through the moonlight hours it's ordinarily in the 50's.
