Took the section of the Broadhead starting at Rte 447 today, this was definitely not a good idea! At least 3 different sections were completely blocked by downed trees / dams to the point we had to get out and walk around. Do not take this section! Says C Braun
Have you paddled the 21+ miles on this? If not, do you know anyone who has? Where are the CL3 spots on this river? Is the CL3 on this easier than most CL3 on NY? Says Jay Dee

Getting your paddling muscles activated and just being out on the river for a while are sure to keep you coming back for more. There aren’t any hotels right nearby but if you're willing to drive a short distance then no problem but do book a room before you come because it is a very popular destination. This section | |
