This lake is so wonderful. If you come at the right time of year, Oswegatchie River - East Branch offers some good whitewater; hiking is a popular thing to do around Salmon Lake; Norridge Trail is a good local trail. Now, you may imagine that's heaps but there's even more fun things to do here in the Adirondack Mountains. Whitewater paddling is not for everyone but if it's for you then we recommend Beaver River, and hey, Gotta ski right? McCauley Mountain

schedule some time to pop by Gun Harbor in the neighborhood of Salmon Lake if you have a chance, and you'll stumble on a lovely lake called Walker Lake. Whohoo, so many entertaining things in one place! The Adirondack Mountains rocks!
Gun Harbor Brook flows through this vicinity, and why not camp at Nicks Lake Campgrounds while you're here at Salmon Lake. All through the warm months at Salmon Lake temperatures are regularly in the 70's, and the night is slightly
colder of course, mostly in the 50's. Throughout the wintertime the highs are generally in the 20's while Salmon Lake nighttime low temperatures during the wintertime are in the 0's. If only every location had this much outdoors
exciting things, what a great globe it would be. A stunning lake like Higby Twin Ponds right next door to Salmon Lake is a good place to take a look at, and fine hiking is available along the Salmon Lake Trail.

Twitchell Lake
 | 1 PHOTO On 7/7/2009... 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.... |
Terror Lake
 | .... Shallow bays and a deep center between 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 ol... |
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... |
