Quick Waters, Smooth Waters: A Paddlers' Map to the Farmington River
)
A detailed map/poster of the Farmington River. The back of the map includes details on the rapids, put-ins and take-outs of the River. This map was developed to answer the questions of where to paddle on the Farmington, how to get there and what kind of water conditions should I expect. The Farmington is remarkable in it's variety. One can paddle in heavy rapids all day and spend a mellow eying floating under the moon on a tranquil section. The Farmington is an outstanding river resource, not only for boating, but fishing and other active and passive recreation. By David and Carrie Sinish.
