The Kennyetto starts up past the Eagle Mill's, cider mill. They actually still use the waterwheel as the main source of power to operate the cider presses. After its done squishin' apples it continues on into the village of Broadalbin and then continues on into Vail's Mills. From Vail's Mills it makes its last few twist and turns towards the Great Sacandaga Lake. I believe its the largest tributary of the Sacandaga.
