The Mad River begins at the Greeley Ponds in Mad River Notch, amountain pass betweenMount Osceola to the west andMount Kancamagus to the east, in the township ofLivermore. The river descends to the south, followed by the Greeley Pond Trail, to the town ofWaterville Valley, where theWest Branch enters.
