The Boquet River drains a watershed of approximately 720 square kilometers (280 square miles).
The Main Stem of the River arises on the flank of Dix Mountain at about 850 meters (2800 feet). It winds through 75 kilometers (47 miles) of forest and farmland, then empties into Lake Champlain at an elevation of 29 meters (95 feet). The Boquet is the steepest river in New York State.
There are two main tributaries. The Branch drains the valley between the Giant Mountain and Hurricane Mountain complexes. The North Branch drains from a series of smaller mountains that form the northwestern edge of the watershed.
You can "mouse over" the map to see the towns and political boundaries in the Boquet watershed; "mouse away" returns you to the names of the streams in the watershed.
