We put the kayak in at the campground on Carry Falls Reservoir (red circle on the map), intending to paddle just to the rapids on the incoming Raquette River and then go back towards the body of the reservoir for more exploring.
But we found that initial set of rapids was passable (with a bit of trepidation on my part) so we kept on going all the way to Jamestown Falls. We landed at the spot we'd driven to before (red x on the map) and picked up the trail to the falls and beyond. The trail was wet and rough going a few places but well worth it.
We saw the falls - a big rapid really
And the view downstream from the falls
And artsy lines of foam on the water. W says this picture looks like one S would have taken .
More falls upstream of the main ones
And beautiful flat water at the end of the trail.
