In the village of Parishville, Catherine Street is the first
street immediately north of the St. Regis River's west branch.
This will become the Sylvan Falls Road after leaving the village.
A few miles down this road, the pavement ends. In a few
more miles you encounter a sign that indicates that all of the property
from that point on is private and posted. Eventually, you
will reach a section on the road where there are gates blocking
you from proceeding. Signs there identify it as a private
club. Kingsley Falls is beyond this point, although we estimate
that it is not a great distance. Without permission from
the club, the only other option is by paddling up the river.
This is another waterfall that is formed on both sides of an
island. Our thanks to Jason Phippen who gave us permission to post
this pic here after posting it on our Facebook page. This
shot is of the river left side. Also,
thanks to another anonymous contributor who had access to this
area. His photos are of the right channel.
The West Branch of the St. Regis River flows into the main channel
in Winthrop. The St. Regis River then flows to the St. Lawrence
River almost on the US/Canada border a few miles northeast of Massena,
New York.
