Getting there
The White River South Royalton / Sharon Corridor entry describes a stretch of White River swim pull-offs between South Royalton village in Royalton and Sharon, Windsor County (county stored Unknown and flagged). The river in this reach is wider, slower, and warmer than upstream Stockbridge water, with broad gravel bars, cobble shallows, and deeper bend pools along the VT 14 / Tunbridge-Sharon road network. Some pull-offs are VRC-conserved, others are town road shoulders, and a few cross private frontage that may be posted. Expect no lifeguard and no facilities, cold-but-not-icy water, and current that builds quickly with storm runoff. Park in allowed pull-offs, scout the river before committing, and respect any posted land.
