Neversink River Unique Area
Needing to get out after a lazy week, I thought the Neversink River Unique Area would be a nice spot on a rainy day. Located just off Route 17 in Sullivan County about 7 miles west of 209, Neversink is a bit off the beaten path. But it's a little gem of a place.
I parked at the end of Katrina Falls Road. Unfortunately I could not find the map I printed out from the NYNJ Trail Conference. This was a shame since I only made it to Denton Falls which I suspect are the least impressive of the three waterfalls located here. That's Ok though. Early fall colors and a nice walk splashing through puddles was a nice break from the indoors. I took a couple nice side trails to the river. It looks like a fly fisherman's river.

Never thought much about Neversink. I know from looking at maps that it'sa reservoir. Didn't realize there is an actual area to walk around in. Nice!
