If you came for an overnight stay OLD Forge Camping Resort is a wonderful place to camp; some nearby water includes North Branch. The annual precipitation here at Rock Lake is about average; August is the month that gets the most rain, and February on the other hand is the driest. You just can't picture the amount of outdoors enjoyable things the Adirondack Mountains has to offer. In the event that you don't mind getting dripping wet, you can always go whitewater

brilliant hiking along the Norridge Trail.
So many entertaining things in close proximity to Rock Lake, definitely mind-boggling. Hiking is a popular thing to do around Rock Lake; Big Deer Pond Trail is a great local trail, and
there are other sites here than Rock Lake, for example Negro Lake. Robinson's Iga is a good local campground, and the panorama of pretty Mount Electra is great. Summer at Rock Lake comes with high temperatures in the 70's. When the
night sets in temperatures fall down into the 50's. The winter brings highs down to the 20's with winter lows in the 0's overnight here at Rock Lake.
This lake is so wonderful. The skiing at McCauley Mountain is pleasant.

Terror Lake
 | ...t 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 can lids at the base of the ridge.

85 years ago my mother who lived in Brooklyn spent her vacations at Lake Twitchell,she said once she went to the adirondacks she never went back to the catskills. I got up this morning and thought of her conversations about the lake and decided to look it up, I hope it's still as beautiful as she described it so many years ago,I still have her snap shots.... |
Oswegatchie River - East Branch
 | Would you please let me know what the kyaking conditions are from Inlet Road to the village of Wanakena. I am going to be at Wanakena this coming weekend and am considering kyaking from Inlet Road to Wanakena. Please let me know if the water level is high enough to float with limited carries. Also, the group consists of limited experienced kyakers. I noticed from Google Satelite photos that there seems to be sections of white water - I am not sure what season the photo is from but one phots seems to be from summer and another closer to Wanakena, Spring with considerable runoff. I noticed from your description above that it is class II-IV Water. Please describe the degree of difficulty in general for that distance, and if coming into class IV areas are they visible and easily avoided by carries. If so, how long and difficult are the carries, and how many ? Your information will be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Rick McCurdy... |
