We want to clarify a number of things. Our directions were
obtained through conversation with a
user on our Facebook page. We are very comfortable that
they are accurate, but we have not yet been to this location to
check them for specifics. For people coming from the south,
there is definitely a shorter route through Russell.
This is actually on a feeder, which is one of the sources of the
Van Rensselaer Creek.
It is our understanding that this
is on private property and can't be seen from this dirt road.
We are continuing to research access information and specifics
on the trail to it.
In the meantime, if anyone
recognizes this location from the picture, and has additional
information, please
contact us.
The Van Rensselaer
Creek flows into the Little River near its
source. This flows into the Grass River near Canton which
empties into the St. Lawrence River in Massena,
in St. Lawrence County.
