West Branch Sacandaga River

April 28, 2009


Claire and I spent a late afternoon paddling around on the West Branch of the Sacandaga River. We went to Chub Lake, a spot we had visited last spring but couldn't return to last fall due to low water. We had a little snack on a large rock and then headed to Good Luck Lake. Fun paddling, but we didn't have much time before winds picked up and Good Luck Lake got quite wavy. It was enjoyable nonetheless and I'm sure we will return at some point this summer. A beaver swam along with us for a little way before diving under the water. And we encountered a funny Canada Goose who was eyeballing us as we got nearer and nearer.... either protecting a nest site or just really annoyed with us interrupting a late afternoon nap.
