This point-to-point paddle requires us to unload boats at Axton Landing and move cars 6 miles downstream to a DEC parking lot named The Crusher. We will paddle downstream. It’s a wide deep river with a winding path. Boats are able to paddle two or three across. This part of the Raquette River is tree lined wilderness on both sides, with many side marshes and inlets.
