Get dripping wet paddling on Oswegatchie River - East Branch, and while you're here, you could pop by Alder
 
               Creek. Buck Pond gets a large amount of water; the month with most of the rain is August; February on the other hand is the driest. That right there is plenty of entertaining things already but it goes on, the Adirondack Mountains has it all. The view of lovely Mount Electra near Buck Pond is brilliant, and the friendly folks of Ogdensburg-Massena like to hang out close by.
You think that's enough? Just getting warmed up. Why not camp at Browns Tract Pond State Campground if you're here at Buck Pond, and lakes are such calm places, why not stop at Partlow Lake.

Terror Lake
...een its two lobs. It is dead to fish. It was named in the early 19th century before stillwater. The Carthage road went up the Beaver river drainage. Two brothers got lost up in the ridges above Terror Lake. Almost died. They found the lake and named it after their nights of terror. Guys used to hunt there in the fly in days. The last last guy to go there was a drainage ditch runner. Calls himself PH. Take his advice. It's a long way in and you MUST know the woods and be a woodsman. There are plenty of blow downs to go through overland. The way to go is via the end of Twitchell Lk. The Sisters who own the old Teahouse at the end of Twitchell are nice old girls. I saved their nephew one cold November night. They bought me some good whiskey. Anyway that's the way to get into Terror Lk. Follow the old trail into the South Branch Beaver River drainage. Head northeast for a good mile and keep the high ground to your right shoulder. Keep walking about 4 miles and make sure the big ridge is over your right shoulder. You can't miss the lake. There is an old ghost trail marked with blue soap c...
