Thanks for posting your CT river trips. I’ve enjoyed watching all four so far. My wife and I paddled from Woodsville to Bradford this past weekend, staying overnight at Harkdale Farm campsite. I entire time we were there I had a feeling of déjà vu and didn’t realize until we got home the reason was I’d seen this video. Looks like your headed to my neck of the woods next. If you’d like help with the Bellows Falls portage, let me know, I live about 5 minutes away. It’s not difficult, just a tedious half mile road walk. I’d be happy to provide a shuttle if you’d like. Looking forward to your next trip.
You are very welcome. I've been slowly picking off one section at a time. I'm working my way toward you! The Connecticut must be huge down your way. Be sure to check out my other videos in the Connecticut River series. Most of all, thanks so much for watching. Happy holidays.
I'm going this summer. What a trail. Camp and enjoy the freedom of Knowing your untouchable. Bet you can't find me. God bless you. I hate the portages. Long island. That's the end. Unless you want to try and paddle to the hamptons. I love being there.
I've had the fantasy that I'd paddle from source to sea in one trip, at retirement, but i now have a daughter who's interested in joining. We threw it out there to make it a 4 year plan before she graduates high school. I'd love to get some insight and advice on preparing for the trip.
I suggest you read a few books written by paddlers who paddled the Connecticut River from the beginning to end. It starts up in Northern New Hampshire from a bog at the Canadian Border and flows to the Long Island Sound and ends at Old Saybrook, Ct Takes about 7 days to finish. Quite a few have paddled this. Check some canoe and kayak web sites they are a good source of information. Good Luck
Thanks so much for watching! No portages on this particular trip. We had this little adventure in early June. I used the Connecticut River Paddlers trail map to plan the trip. From the wilderness map company. We started out trip in Woodsville NH and ended in NNorth Thetford Vt. Both parking areas I found to be safe places to leave a vehicle. For some reason the end of this video was cut off during upload? So sorry about that. I had explained my trip in detail as I paddled to the parking lot. It's a great trip. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did. Best wishes.
Great video - thanks for sharing! I’ve been wanting to do a portion of the Paddlers Trail for a while now - this year might be the year! I make camping videos in NH, feel free to check them out if you would like! Have a great weekend 👍🏻
Me to. I'm going to be their this summer. Canoed up and down this river. So many places to camp and enjoy your freedoms. A little smoke. A little drink. Untouchable on the river. Fish and leave all your hurt behind. Hope to see some of you this summer. Love Steve.

Did you have to portage at any point? Do you have an itinerary of your trip you an provide? What tie o year did you go?
Thanks so much for watching!
