This boat launch for kayaks and canoes was recently installed near the Cokeville Bridge piers along the Blairsville Riverfront Trail. The takeout area is located just downstream of the Bairdstown Bridge. The project was funded by the Western PA Conservancy and private donations under the direction of Blairsville Borough and the Blairsville Community Development Authority.
