Really great skiing awaits you at McCauley Mountain. You get a fine sight of Mount Tom from Merriam Lake, and there are other spots here than Merriam Lake, for example Jock Pond. If you came to camp OLD Forge Camping Resort is a glorious location to do that, and there's great hiking along the Salmon Lake Trail.
Merriam Lake sees pretty high levels of precipitation; the month with most of the rain is August while February is typically the driest month.

| | This lake is so wonderful. Camping at Browns Tract Pond State Campground is always a wonderful experience; if you want to stop by some attention-grabbing stuff, stop by Browns Rock. Yeah, come here to Merriam Lake for a great time. Take a side trip to Constable Creek, and Craig Point is very near and is a good spot to visit.

And that's not all the things you can do here in the Adirondack Mountains. You can run the rapids of Moose River
- South Branch near Merriam Lake, and don't leave Merriam Lake without first going for a hike along the Norridge Trail. Just can't get enough of the Adirondack Mountains. Indian River is a good whitewater spot near Merriam Lake, and lakes are such calm places, why not go to Little Chief Pond.

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.

There is an old ghost trail marked with blue soa... |
