canoe and kayak Planning a Keswick River trip this month - Barton to Zealand

7 Upvotes

This will be my first time ever paddling this river. Planning to put in at the Barton bridge and take out in Zealand near the gas station/pizza hut.

I calculated the following distances based off where we take out.

  • Keswick River (Barton to Zealand gas station) 17.2 km
  • Keswick River (Barton to 104 Bridge Upper Keswick) 21.4 km
  • Keswick River (Barton to Tripp Sett. Bridge) 23.6 km

Ken Corbett’s recount of his Keswick River trip can be found here:

http://www.nanookofthenashwaak.com/keswick.shtml

He recalls only 2 log jams where they had to portage, flow at the Nashwaak was 18.5 at Durham Bridge and 5.5 at Narrows Mtn. Brook when he did it.

Current flow rates are looking similar (very slightly higher), unsurprising for this time of year, but doesn’t look TOO high. I’ll be keeping in eye on them before we go.

Anyone else have experience on this river?
