Portions of Hitchens Pond are quite marshy, and can be tough going, especially if one gets out of the channel.

This shouldn't be too bad to clear.

Just past here, is a hairpin turn, as the flooded River, winds a bit, and becomes a much larger lake, in the form of a series of bays and marshes.

To the south, it looked still quite cloudy. But there was something quiet spiritual about the area, and quiet vast. Something also spoke to me as being Saint Lawrence County, and as vast as one would expect the biggest county in the state to be.

These trees line the last big turn at Hitchens Pond, where you finally get into the main bay, as you head towards the Upper Lows Dam.

Along Hitchens Pond as we get closer to Lows Upper Dam.
