The Whitewater River Run from Palmer Road to Confluence with West Branch in New York is a popular route for kayakers and rafters. The ideal streamflow range for this run is between 800 and 1500 cfs. The class rating for the run is II-III, which makes it suitable for intermediate paddlers. The segment is approximately 6.5 miles long and features several exciting rapids and obstacles such as "S Turn," "Bridal Veil Falls," and "The Staircase."
One important regulation to keep in mind while rafting on this stretch of the river is the requirement for personal flotation devices (PFDs). All participants must wear a properly fitting PFD while on the river. Additionally, alcohol consumption is strictly prohibited while on the water.
It is important to note that river conditions can change rapidly based on weather and seasonal factors. It is always recommended to consult with local authorities or experienced paddlers for the most up-to-date information before attempting this run.
