context_page_description: The La Chute River is a short, fast-moving river, near the Vermont–New York border. It is now almost wholly contained within the municipality of Ticonderoga, New York, connecting the northern end and outlet of the 32-mile long Lake George and the southern end of the 107-mile long Lake Champlain through many falls and rapids. The river drops about 230 feet in its three and a half-mile course, which is a larger drop than Niagara Falls.
  Part of the Lake Champlain Valley and the St. Lawrence River drainage basin, ultimately its waters flow out of Lake Champlain through the 106 miles length of the Richelieu River into the St. Lawrence River and then into the North Atlantic Ocean north of Nova Scotia.
