About This Access Site
This whitewater put-in on West Brook provides access for paddlers looking to run whitewater sections in the West Milford area of Passaic County. The site serves as a launch point for kayakers and canoeists interested in exploring the creek's rapids and flow. West Brook offers seasonal whitewater paddling opportunities, with water conditions typically varying based on recent rainfall and snowmelt, making it important for paddlers to check current water levels before planning a trip.

Paddlers using this put-in should be prepared for whitewater conditions and have appropriate skills for moving water. The site's exact amenities and specific hazards should be verified before arrival, as whitewater areas can present obstacles such as rocks, fallen trees, and variable current speeds.
