Up the Bog River and Low's Lake followed by a portage to Big Deer Pond. Then a 2.2-mile carry to the upper Oswegatchie River in the Five Ponds Wilderness. Two or more days down the Oswegatchie to the take-out at Inlet. Many optional side hikes. A beautiful, remote trip with rewards to justify the portages. It's best to cartop the canoe to the Bog River and have us shuttle your vehicle to Inlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Low's Lower Dam access will be closed for repairs to the dam through fall 2024. It is recommended to put in at Low's Upper Dam via a 2.5 mile portage down a DEC access road which is gated off.
The best map for this route is the Adirondack Paddler's Map The Whitney Wilderness.
