These river camping trips must be very remote and primitive. Here is what I have so far for spring, comments welcome;

1.Tionesta from Sheffield to Kelletville

2.Little Beaver Creek by starting on the Middle Fork around Franklin Square or Teegarden, camping overnight at Sprucevale and finishing near the Ohio the next day.

3.French Creek could be a good spring trip. We started in Meadville one year and camped on an island near Cochranton. Finished up in Franklin the next day. Nice trip. about 25 miles

4.How about the lower end of the Clarion by Cook Forest? They have that newer permit only campsite below Gravel Lick. Canoe and hiking access only. Start above Cook Forest and end at the Mill Creek access. Then there is the lower lower end, below the dam and ending in Parker on the Allegheny. About 24 miles.

5.The Bottom Yough is beautiful. You can put in at Connellsville and take out at Cedar Creek Park. Makes for a great 1 night 22 mile trip or you can go further downstream to get 2 nights in. There are designated campsites for the boaters & bikers on the bike trail that parallels the river.
