River Description

   The longest trip involves putting in just upstream of the culvert under South Johnsburg Road. Immediately after exiting the culvert you fly over a 10 foot waterfall (see photos). I call this 'Pipe Dream'. Be careful to scout the landing first. The next 1.5 miles involves lovely 80 fpm rapids down to the route 28 bridge. From here you have a short stretch of flatwater which ends at a (possibly unrunable) mill dam waterfall - carry on the right. Another mile of boogy water brings you to the 'Black Hole' slide - beware the pinning rock on the right. You can take-out here, or run a short rapid (IV) down to the Hudson River, which has pleasant rapids (II/III) down to The Glen.

Gauge Information

Gauge Description:

The description of the minimim and maximum levels are approx. as there is no gauge on the creek. Instead the gauge is on the Hudson River which it flows into. The best indication is to look at Mill Creek upstream from the route 28 bridge; if it looks runable, it probably is.
