West Branch Sacandaga Gorge

The trail is the best kept secret in the Southern Adirondacks. There are five waterfalls and two eddys. It is fishermans paths and Bushwhacking when crossing Hamilton Pond Stream. It is necessary to go along the top of the gorge in the early spring. The best time is from May to November. There is a climb up over some boulders at the first falls. It takes getting wet up to the thighs in certain seasons to Fording Hamilton Pond Stream. There is a beautiful camping spot. It is a poor maintained trail because it is either rock hopping or a good deal of bushwhacking.
