The Boquet River drains north out of the High Peaks through the town of Keene and into Lake Champlain at Willsboro — a major drainage for the eastern Adirondacks and the spine of the Boquet River Valley. NY-9N shadows most of the lower stretch from Elizabethtown to the lake, and several pull-offs offer access for paddlers and anglers working the pools below the Route 9 bridge. The upper reach above Keene Valley runs fast and technical in spring; the lower valley opens into farmland and wider meanders by the time it hits Essex County Route 10. Historically a log-drive river in the 19th century, now a cold-water fishery with wild brook trout in the headwater tributaries.
