Skip
Posted rules, private land, or current conditions make the stop unclear
You need a lifeguarded beach or guaranteed easy access
High flow, slick rock, or poor footing make the stop feel wrong
Before you go
- Use the parking pin as the arrival point and confirm access on site.
- Respect posted trail, parking, and river corridor rules.
- Check depth, current, footing, and exit options before entering the water.
- Leave small roads and pull-offs unobstructed.
- Arrival and destination pins are conservative Route 119 / Willard Brook State Forest approximations based on the short roadside access corridor described in public sources.
