The Connecticut River Boating Guide, Source to Sea 2007
The Connecticut River Boating Guide is a classic guide for boaters, canoeists, and kayakers on the Connecticut River. The third edition covers the entire waterway from its source at the Canadian border to Long Island Sound, dividing the river into twenty-eight reaches with accompanying GPS-compatible maps. Practical information on boating facilities, ramps, access areas, mileages, difficulty, sources of flow information, and portages makes it easier than ever to plan your next adventure along the river. Note - many of the campsite established on the river were created after 2007 and as such are currently not in the boating guide.
