It's a wide river the whole way. My guess is that you took a right turn into Blind Brook, which does indeed peter out in alders. I recently posted another article on the trip on Examiner.com. For that, I was able to upload a map that shows Blind Brook. To see the map, click on the slide show at the bottom of the article.

Can she clarify this, or can you do so Phil?
