The Tohickon is the last (and first) northeast release of the year and the traditional end (and start) of the paddling season for many. A great step upriver with drops not normally found on a class 3 river, but the spring release’s cold water makes is less forgiving on swims (or multiple rolls). Generally a good river for someone who was already comfortable on class 2+ like the last rapid on the Mongaup at 2 barrels and a nice end of season goal. We’ll usually have at least 1 well guided lap for first timers.
Most drops have some pretty straightforward lines as well as a few spots where things get exciting, so well guided which our trip should be it’s a good step up.
Fall Toh is relatively warm but still usually requires thicker neoprene at the least with most folks using drygear.
Camping at take-out if the Delaware isn’t flooding is usually $20 for the entire weekend in a typical paddlers scene, starting loud and dying down pretty quickly.
