Take-out: On VT-7 in Danby, take Mt Tabor Ave to the east. Go 100 yards to the T and turn right on Main St. You will then cross the creek. The General Store has some great sandwiches. We left our bike there with their permission.

Put-in: Drive up the creek on Brook Rd past the General Store. Stay left at the fork and quickly cross the creek. At the Y, park in the turnout in between the intersection at Brook Rd and Easy St.
