oin Guide ADK and the NFCT on Saturday, Sept. 13, for a trek from Franklin Falls Pond to the Union Falls Dam! We will meet at 10:30 am at the public access at Franklin Falls Pond on River Road outside Bloomingdale, then shuttle vehicles to the takeout at Union Falls. Once shuttling is complete, we'll hit the water. This 8.6-mile trip crosses Franklin Falls Pond, with a short, relatively flat portage around Franklin Falls, and then continues across Union Falls Pond to the takeout at the dam, approximately three hours. Bring snacks or lunch as we will take a break at the portage to fuel up. This paddle is suitable for most skill levels, but please take the mileage into consideration. This is a free event, though advance registration through the NFCT is required so we can contact folks in the event of inclement weather. To learn more, email chris@
If registering more than one person, please register each individually.
