点评:Top tier Outfitter! Our group of 9 chose to canoe from Kinzua Dam to President — 51 miles. None of us have ever canoed the river before so we looked for Allegheny Outfitters for help and they went above and beyond. First, before you do anything, spend the $40 and purchase Allegheny River Paddling Guide. Best river guide book I’ve ever used written by Piper of Allegheny Outfitters. Using the guide, Sue and Piper walked us through the river and provided wonderful recommendations where we could camp each night. Sunday and Monday we stayed at Buckaloons mile 15). Tuesday night we camped at the bottom tip of McGuire Island (mile 30) just past Courson Island. Wednesday morning resupplied at Tidoute Trading Post. Camped on Hemlock Island in the middle of an old growth forest (mile 37). Thursday we planned on staying on the banks of Indian Camp Run (mile 47) with a beautiful waterfall but the ‘muck’ around the site made it doable but less than desirable for a final night on the river! We went up river to Holeman Island and Kibbe’s campground camping on the banks of the river (mile 48). Took out at President in the morning (mile 51). Canoes were in great shape and livery service was very friendly and punctual. Overall, a great experience with a great outfitter!!!!!
翻译:顶级户外装备公司!我们一行九人选择从金祖阿大坝划独木舟到总统镇,全程51英里。我们之前都没划过这条河,所以就去找了阿勒格尼户外装备公司寻求帮助,他们的服务真是超出预期。首先,在出发前,一定要花40美元买一本《阿勒格尼河划船指南》。这是我用过的最好的河流指南,作者正是阿勒格尼户外装备公司的派珀。苏和派珀拿着这本指南,带领我们游览了这条河,并为我们推荐了每天晚上可以露营的好地方。周日和周一,我们住在巴卡伦斯(15英里处)。周二晚上,我们在麦奎尔岛的南端(30英里处)露营,就在库尔森岛附近。周三早上,我们在蒂杜特贸易站补充了物资。晚上,我们在铁杉岛上露营,那里位于一片原始森林的中心(37英里处)。周四我们原本计划在印第安营地溪(47英里处)岸边露营,那里有个美丽的瀑布,但营地周围的泥泞不堪,虽然勉强能住,但作为在河上的最后一晚来说实在不太理想!于是我们逆流而上,前往霍尔曼岛,在基比营地(48英里处)的河岸边扎营。第二天早上在总统镇(51英里处)上岸。独木舟状况良好,租赁服务人员非常友好且准时。总而言之,这是一次非常棒的体验,租赁公司也很棒!
