Description
Kevin Colburn posted an Access Alert: The putin to the Nescopeck is on a private dirt road off Route 93 in Drums, PA. During this wet season, the road takes a beating from all the boaters using this putin. A resident has requested that we use the hardtop road, where the bridge is closed, as our putin instead of driving up and down this dirt road. Please pass this on to all boaters who paddle the Nescopeck. And thanks for the courtesy. Let's be good neighbors. Gauge correlations above are from the Lehigh Valley Canoe Club, whose message board can be an excellent source for info on current levels in the region. There's a small pond halfway through this reach, at 41.0483 lat, -75.923 longitude. I bet most paddlers run the stretch above or below the pond.
